The best Sony Ericsson phone ever. Nobody has ever regretted buying this phone, got a 100% value for money.
So stylish, brilliant display, excellent sound quality & the best 2MP camera. It should be rare for sure.
Reviewer: Ryan - Indonesia
Date: 12th Jan 2008
I have used this phone already for 3 years & it is still good!
Reviewer: Hayden - Dumfrieshire, UK
Date: 16th Aug 2007
Can someone please give me some advice on the cost of this phone & if it is available on O2 & can be brought handset, not contract?
Reviewer: OMG - UK
Date: 27th May 2007
SO sleek, great mobile.
Reviewer: Paul - Plymouth, UK
Date: 25th May 2007
It's time to upgrade my W900i & I don't know if I want to change it. It is still holding its own with the latest phones on the market, OK 3.2 megapixels are the normal now but I have taken plenty of excellent pictures since I have had the phone & the ones that have turned out rubbish is just down to the user (me). Music storage is fantastic & can be further enhanced by using a memory card & the sound is excellent especially if you upgrade your headphones. OK it looks quite large but its only 5mm thicker than Nokia 6233 but the same size in all other respects. They also weigh almost the same. But one of its biggest pluses is that it is also pretty exclusive. It has only let me down once in 18 months & that was quickly rectified by removing the battery. All in all a fantastic phone which at the moment can't be bettered, a future classic. If you got one keep it.

Can anyone tell me about the FM radio? Is it inconvenient to use since it is not integrated into the phone? Also, is it compatible with itunes & does it have good phone reception?
Reviewer: Steve - Oxford, UK
Date: 3rd May 2007
Have had this phone for almost 18 months now on contract. By far & away the best phone I have ever owned. Contract coming to an end & looking to upgrade but frankly there's nothing on the market that in my opinion comes even close to what this phone can do.
Have yet to meet anyone else who has this phone so exclusivity is great & people still ooh & aah & say wow when they see it. Have had no problems what so ever so no idea who's whinging about memory etc. Granted it is a little on the large size compared to other phones which is its only downside, but hey, its got soo much crammed in is it any wonder! How many other phones come with almost half a Gig of built in memory. ! NONE!
Great phone, cannot fault it in any way for features, usability & fantastic design. I've dropped it more times than I care to remember, has never come apart & still works as good & as fast as the day I took it out of the box.
Think I'll upgrade to get a few extra bits with a new phone (extra memory card, Bluetooth headset etc) but am going to carry on using this phone & keep the new on the box.
If anyone is having any doubts about this phone then forget them right away. This phone was, & still is better than anything on the market.
Perfect & a joy to own!

Not a good phone is a very big phone small screen for a big phone but the camera is good but that's really it, this phone is bad.
Reviewer: Daniel - Malaysia
Date: 23rd Feb 2007
I am a college guy & I just recently lost this phone. Was using the swivel s700 before this & I just have to say that I love this phone. Everything about this phone is great. I am looking for a new phone & I am still yet to find one that can live up to the flexibility of this phone. It's complete with everything. It's really hard to find another Sony Ericsson with a camera with autofocus, a Walkman & a really nice looking design. It's been 2 weeks & I still can't get over this phone, I need a new phone but I just can't quite find one better than this. Maybe ill buy another w900.

To lady-fizzle
Yes it does come with a memory stick & it does have really good earphones to. The memory stick is great & if you love music it the fone 4 you because it stores loads. Just don't loose it like my mate. She was so upset when it went & for some reason can't get another.
Hope that helps, Sophie.

Great phone.
Reviewer: Tommy - Athens, Greece
Date: 31st Dec 2006
Pro:
1. MP3 player features & sound quality.
2. Design solid lines without fancy needless stuff.
3. Sufficient internal memory.
4. 3G capable, Internet, a lot of connectivity options.
Cons:
1. Kind of slow in demanding java applications.
2. Seems that it has low sms capacity (~110 for both inbox & sent messages).
3. 2megapixels were fine last year but now 3 would be minimum.
4. I somehow managed to crash its software a couple of times though I cannot reproduce the symptoms.
Reviewer: Kangta - Quezon City, Philippines

Love this phone! I plan on buying this but the problem is the price won't drop. Most Sony Ericsson phones will be sold cheaper in 3 months time. Haven't found any user selling theirs though. The white-color version looks sweet & the swivel-action works like a charm! Peace! ;p
Reviewer: Mohsin - London, UK

I have got a w900i & after 3 months both the cameras stopped working & the loud speaker but the problem is that the parts are extremely difficult to find.
Reviewer: James Whitaker - Barnsley, UK
Date: 24th Nov 2006
It is a good phone.
Reviewer: Kelvin Takumi - Singapore
Date: 13th Oct 2006
I have use W900i for about 4 months, the good about this phone is that it has a 470mb build in, a really loud speaker. And the bad about this phone is, it is heavy & big... & the new design walkman phone is much slimmer. After few months u use it, the response on the keypad will be slower, so I will say that the new W850i will be better for those teens.
Reviewer: Pete - UK
Date: 4th Oct 2006
Have had this phone nearly one year now. Mine was the first one out of my local Vodafone shop last December. This is 5th Sony Ericsson I have owned & is by far the best. Fantastic piece of kit. Music sound great, camera top quality - even when printing pics from it. Also quite rare & still impresses when people see it. Recently installed Wisepilot Sat Nav which works great. Am now waiting for W950i, but it will have to be incredibly good to beat my W900i.

Awesome cell phone!!!
Reviewer: Max - Cardiff, UK

Not the best music player in the world. My audio connection port only works when it wants to. Very slow response on keypad. Not a great phone.

I want this phone!!!...aaaargh!!!...can't wait to get it!!!
Reviewer: Sabaah A.K.A. Sabz - UK
Date: 14th Aug 2006
One word to describe my affection for this word: perfect. This is the ultimate phone you can buy. It has EVERY feature included that you could possible imagine. I recommend this phone to everyone out there & although it might be pricey, it's well worth it. You might be thinking: This phone's TOO BULKY AND HEAVY!! In reality it won't be...it's just an average phone & considering the features that comes with it...size shouldn't be an issue. Trust me...once you have this phone in your pocket...you'll forget about size & weight because you'll be too focused on the content!!10/10 it's a must have! Well done SE! You've done us proud! XD

I bought my W900i phone last month & until now I am still amazed with the phone. It got everything I wanted in a gadget; a phone, a music player, a good camera (video or still), a radio, scheduler & a movie player. I think I this is one of the best Sony phone. With the expandability of the memory to 2gb. I love it

Reviewer: Martin - St Albans, UK
Date: 12th Mar 2006
I love the W900i & was gonna get the W800i but read that this phone was coming out. I have had it for a few weeks now & it is a top phone. Its got Bluetooth & 3G which makes it a fast phone to say the least. The music it top quality on this phone as u would expect being a Walkman featured phone. I was a bit worried that the swivel opening would be a nightmare but it works very good & I really like it. If you want a top quality music playing phone with some good camera & video facilities then this is the phone for you. I would recommend it to all.
Reviewer: Elizabeth - Harrow, UK
Date: 7th Mar 2006
Not got this phone but like the sound of it. Walkman, 3G, Bluetooth, camera with zoom, auto focus & light, video, MMS video messaging, Internet browser all sound a bit too good to be true, but it is true. I suppose this is a very expensive phone.
Reviewer: Daniel Hancock - Burnham on Sea, UK
Date: 3rd Mar 2006
The phone has amazing sound & great Internet services which I am really pleased with & have used a lot. The 3G makes this phone the best I have ever owned. The camera it very easy to use & works really well. The disappointing part of this phone is the screen as it is not very clear in brighter conditions & the price was high. A good phone if you don't mind paying the price. I wanted the music so I paid the price but Sony Ericsson need to improve the screen.
Reviewer: Kate V - Cardiff, UK
Date: 1st Mar 2006
Love the look of this phone, very stylish looking with its swivel action. I want the Walkman music feature on my next phone. The screen is very large & the camera sounds good, videoing sound fun. Bluetooth & 3G with this phone is great. I would have it in the black colour as it would add to its stylish look. Cant wait to show my mates this phone.
