Sony Ericsson W980 - user opinions and reviews

Sony Ericsson

Typical! I finally get the W960 and they announce this. Although, tbh, i prefer the W960 for the camera. I gotta admit though, the orange light-up bit at the bottom looks cool as f***!

There seems to be some debate about the round keypad buttons. It seems to fit the rest of the phone's design approach. It seems to me that SE are going for a sorta 1980's vision of the future; kinda retro style. I personally don't like it but I think this is prob'ly SE's response to criticism that their handsets all look the same. At least now they're exploring different designs...

Like d design., Would love it if its camera had a flash., Well, its what we expect from a walkman phone., Poor camera (except the w960).,

Fall in love with this one, but seeing the rounded button inside is an immediate turn off. But I'd prefer a clamshell K or G phone.

SE had so little clamshell phones outside Japan, and most of their offers (the Z series) are mediocre in specs compared to their other series such as K, or G. What's their problem anyway ? Afraid that the clamshell will chip their candybar model's sales ?

but 3.2 megapixel camera with flash and autofocus.
and 8gb memory.

i hope SE will have that dream phone!

deal is settled, release is anytime and i will hunt this kid. lol any design freak out there should just get a hand on this. why need cameras when nikon n canon still exist? get a eos or dseries ones if u are really into photography, dont simply say put good cams on the phone. A phone is meant to be as a phone only, perhaps use it as an accessory too, and this phone is soo perfect for the purpose. ladies, wear any stuff and put this phone on ur neck, still is a beauty anytime anywhere. will be flashy in the clubs too i bet *drools*

I love Sony Ericsson. They have the greatest designs while Nokia has some of the worst, så i would never switch to Nokia, which is probably their biggest rival. I hope this means better sound quality in all following phones too, and that would just make Sony Ericsson rule the market.
I only hope they'll make a phone with somewhat the same design as the W890i, but with the sound quality of this W980i phone :)

It doesn't support megabass, ´cause it supports a better bass system :)
