  • Decent sound quality; solid design and build; excellent screens; Microsoft Exchange support; push email; HSDPA data; decent music format support; FM transmitter integrated
  • No 3.5mm headphone socket; not exactly innovative or fresh; memory not expandable; no camera flash
  • Not an innovative phone, and it won't replace your dedicated MP3 player, but in most other ways it's terrific and feature-packed. It'll even push your office's corporate email to you ...

  • Abstract:  Who could resist this piano-black Walkman-series phone? It’s a quad-band handset loaded with 8 GB of internal memory, a 3.2 Megapixel camera, an FM tuner, Bluetooth stereo, and a music player that operates even with the phone flip-lid closed. Opened o...

  • 8GB internal memory, 3.2megapixel camera, Touch sensitive MP3 buttons, HSDPA
  • No external memory slot, No 3.5mm headphone jack, Cheap build quality
  • A top music phone, but certainly not the best all-rounder. Cheap build quality, lack of external memory card slot and 3.5mm headphone jack is disappointing....

  • Abstract:  Its no news any more that weve been playing with one of the hotties of the season for some time now. Sony Ericsson W980 made a glorious entrance but were yet to see about the exit. Set to top the Walkman feature phone lineup, W980 carries along 8 GB worth of storage, a 3 megapixel camera and a built-in accelerometer. The touch-sensitive keys and the latest Sony Ericsson feature phone interface add to the excitement. Still not interested? Then try to think of another music phone with a built-in FM transmitter!

  • The W980 is somewhat an odd acquaintance - either you love it or you don’t. I’m personally quite fond of it, although it lacks WLAN, which is a very important feature for me. The price of the W980 has come down to what I think is an acceptable...
