I've just been using this phone for three days and I love it. I was looking for a non-touch music phone. So, after a lot of thinking I bought it. The phone has all the good features of a really good music phone. Here are the pros and cons.

Pros:
1. Very good music quality. I'm using a Nokia 3.5mm earphone and it works great even the mic.
2. Very good battery life. I listened to music all day and the battery had only depleted to 55% !!!
3. Camera is not one of the best feature of this phone but it is not disappointing. Especially flash is very good; performance is close to xenon flash :)
4. Telephony and messaging is also good. For some reason the network bar remains mostly low but reception is never bad. I think it is a software glitch.
5. Internet browsing is really good and fast considering a non-touch phone. Wi-fi works just fine.
6. The phone does not lag even with a full memory card. Trust me, I use a 8gb and already 7gb is full.

Cons:
1. Charger port is very wobbly. I have to struggle each night to get the phone charging. Seriously considering buying a battery charger with an extra battery.
2. Music is very good but not all the earphones works. My HTC headphones creates a buzzing sound with W995 but Nokia headphone works just fine. I do not use the SE earphone that came with the box because it uses the fast port and as I said the port is wobbly.
3. Uses M2 memory card. I had quite a hard time finding one and it cost me almost 3 times more than a MicroSD.

Despite the cons the overall performance of this phone is really good. It has a wholesome feel to it and I have a feeling I'm gonna use it for a long time.

Also had this phone for 18 months and it's been great. Nice solid quality feel in the hand. Very good camera, a little slow on 3G internet compared to the new smart phones, but makes a great modem for my laptop. Obviously for music it is excellent. But I like it best for its main use for me as a phone.

i have been using it since 2009 and i am so attached to it, it has even blind folded me in a way that i don`t find any other phone as attractive as it is, the pictures,sound, memory & features are doing it for me, so in a scale of 100% i definetly give it 120%

1.How is its camera? Some 1 wrote that its camera is equal to 2 mega pixel camera.is it true?
2.Can it stream you tube video nicely? I have K850i and its video streaming is very bad.

After all it's a Walkman phone.... I only watch out for it's audio quality and that is awesome. Believe me... Even better than all Walkman phones that literally existed.
