Sony Ericsson W980 Walkman review: 8 gigs of character

Sony Ericsson W980 Walkman review: 8 gigs of character - read the full textIt's no news any more that we've been playing with one of the hotties of the season for some time now. Sony Ericsson W980 made a glorious entrance but we're 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!

 

I had been desparately waiting for this review on the SE w980!i am so impressed with GSM arena team.u guys are doing a great job of bringing out quick and detailed reviews.almost every feature of the phone has been covered here.if anything should be considered b4 buying a phone, these detailed reviews on gsmarena are THE ULTIMATE guides...

The only reason why they included this camera interface is that its not very comfortable to hold a clamshell phone (or slider for that matter) horizontally to take a picture. If you've used a W910i, you'll know what I mean. However I still would much prefer the horizontal interface as its so much better than the portrait one that the W980 has, that its worth being a bit less comfortable to hold! (This is the same with the W760 too) :)

Good review GSMArena, you just need to brush up on your English skills.

This is great phone and maybe the best flip phone around now
but and it is big but the camera should be at least like the one on w810 and the interface like on w910 this would made it perfect
it is still perfect phone but im still disapointment
