Sony Ericsson W995 Review - Should you buy the Sony Ericsson W995?
Review: Sony Ericsson W995
Sony Ericsson have really revved up with the release of the W995. Not only is this a flagship Walkman phone, but it also matches the camera capabilities of the Cyber-Shot range. And it's priced as a mid-range phone, so in value for money terms, it's going to be a hard act to beat.
Unlike the weird clamshell design of its predecessor, the W980i, the W995 has a straightforward slide design. Although the phone isn't particularly slim, the top half that contains the display is just a few millimetres thick, with the bulk of the phone in the lower half. This makes the phone quite easy to hold when texting, and the keypad is quite ergonomic, even though from photos the buttons look like they are too small. The TFT screen is typical for this price range, with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. The built-in accelerometer automatically rotates the screen between landscape and portrait modes.
The camera is definitely a step up from the usual Walkman range. With 8.1 megapixels, face detection autofocus and a flash, this phone can easily compete with the mid-range Cyber-Shot phones for image quality. Video quality is good too, and the phone supports video calling on a 3G network.
The music player is the latest Walkman player 4.0, and supports a range of advanced features such as album art, SensMe™ which lets you create playlists based on tempo and mood, shake control, equalise and shuffle. There's also an FM radio with RDS to display the station and song that you're listening to. The phone supports the latest audio innovations from Sony: Clear Bass and Clear Stereo. And we're delighted to see that there's a 3.5mm audio jack, so that compatible third-party headphones can be used as well as the premium quality headphones supplied. Flight mode lets you disable the transmitter but still access the music player and other media functions.
Sony Ericsson are really pushing the multimedia capabilities of the W995. For example, MediaGo™ automatically converts music and movie files when transferring them from your PC. The PlayNow™ store has been expanded so that you can now download movies (for a charge) as well as music. But watching full length movies on a 2.6 inch screen isn't the most obvious way to spend your free time. But the ability to watch YouTube videos is a welcome addition, as is the inclusion of the BBC iPlayer and the Sky Player on Three. Facebook is also integrated into the home screen.
The accelerometer that automatically rotates the display and enables the music shake control also lets you play motion sensitive games, and there are a range of 3D games available for this phone. The phone also has a-GPS which can be used to automatically geo-tag images and can be used with Google Maps to show you where you are. A trial version of the Wayfinder navigation software is included too.
The available memory is 118MB, which is enough for 30 - 50 music tracks, and this is expandable to 16GB with a Memory Stick Micro.
The W995 is a well connected phone. In addition to 3G and quadband GSM it supports HSDPA for super-fast data transfer, and WiFi so that you can access data via your connected PC or a WiFi hotspot. The WiFi is DNLA-compatible, which makes it easier to connect to other DNLA-compatible devices around your home. The phone will also connect via USB or Bluetooth.
Battery life is typical for a flagship Walkman phone, which is to say that it's about average and will last a coupVollständige Rezension lesen...
Fantastic phone, would buy again
Great phone, compact excellent camera and of course mp3 walkman. real easy to use and not a touch screen in sight.
Love it this was a replacement for a tocco and is much more user friendly.
8 mega mixel, walkman, 8gb memory card = amazing phone
very nice sleek walkman phone with an 8 mega pixel camera. very easy to use and a loud speaker. i would recommend this phone to every one.
Brilliant phone, highly recommended.
I purchased this phone as a downgrade from my HTC. I've had a lot of phones over the past few years, the more recent few being smartphones (iPhone, HTC etc). I was bored of smartphones and their terrible battery life not to mention their many problems.
I've used this phone for less than a week and already I love it. Fab camera, very easy to navigate the menu, expandable memory (I purchased a 16gb memory card), large screen, easy to use keypad, the battery life is superb...the list goes on.
I'd recommend this phone to someone who doesn't want a smartphone (or like me has become bored of them) but wants a phone with the ability to do a little more than just text and call.
There's also the option for set up email which I haven't done and don't plan on doing it.
All in all a very good phone, very happy with my purchase.Vollständige Rezension lesen...
