Pros: decent camera + flash, nice feel and look, study build (dropped it a couple times with no dents or scratches at all) bright screen, walkman player, kickstand, and most important for someone who listens to music all the time: the additional 3.5 headphone jack at the top of the phone (Sony Ericsson has been known to be lacking in this feature in the past)

Cons: battery life, battery cover falls off all the time (perhaps it has to do with the fact that it gets messed around in my pocket, however the cover lock could be better so that it doesn't come off as easily)

Hi,

W995 is an excellent Walkman phone but I am not satisfied with camera quality.
Even though 8.1 MP, 3264x2448 pixels is there I am not getting good quality image. If I zoom the image a little the quality goes bad. Any suggestion to improve image quality ?,Plz help me

yes,it has 3.5mm jack which you can plug & play into any compatible speaker with.
instant messaging is you can send or receive msg on the go.

i got the phone just for less than 2 months and i always carrying it very carefully , ensure that it is clean and put the w995 in a pocket without even together with a syilings or paper. but the wordings of 8.1 megapixel and the SE logo in front was both came out. that was a very bad printing. but overall i like the phone, bcos it responds faster far faster than my Aino (my second phone). but in comparing the headphone (aino and w995) ....Aino is better.

@Satya

EISA AWARD means SH*T!

Just because some org. voted on it doesn't mean the public loves it or that the phone does NOT have ANY problems!

Sorry to correct the review, but i have W995, and it has the smile-shutter capability, and facebook app. If yours didn't, try to update your software via update service.
