Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970few months ago, i also confused to choose between w595 and w980, but then i choose w980 and i never regret choose it, i love the design, it really nice and the keypad is good, w595 is cheaper but the memory only 2gb and you only get hpm 64 while in w980 you get 8gb and hpm 77 which is have a great sound and i also like the external display and the sensitive touch key is very useful, the camera is really bad in indoor with low light, the position is also bad but not as bad as other people say. w595 is just looks like ordinary phone, i think you get bored soon if you choose w595

not a camera phone..
keypad suck
sound quality of the speaker not good enough,n cant compete wit other phone

I have a w595 and w980 which I'm using now.
Based on my observations the W595 has louder and better speaker quality compared to the w980. However if you're using the supplied earphones for the two models, W980 has better sound quality due to the earphone material and equalizer presets (for me Clear Bass is better than MegaBass). Also, i've noticed that the w980 has a brighter display.
The w980 is almost the same as the w595 in terms of internet connectivity, SMS, battery life etc...
The speakers of the w980 isn't a big deal for me since when I bought the phone, it came with a free MPS-80 speaker which has great bass and sound quality.
whasssup!, 02 Oct 2009I've had this phone for more than a year now and i am still totally satisfied! This phone has ... moreHi frnz i m planning to buy this phone. It really looks cute. I wd want to knw y ppl say bad abt the camera i wd want to knw wat s the prob with it. Bcoz i ned the camera too to b gud. So help meeeeeeee
The phone has freeze problems. It suddenly shut when on the phone or listening to music. Freeze a lot, remove battery and works again. I have latest Firmware.. ><
I've had this phone for about 3months now
Pros......
The in-ear stereo quality is quite good
Beautiful design, i love the light effects and the feel of it in my hand
I love Music Mate and almost everything in the music department
Cons.........
What the manufacturer conveniently neglects to state about the Fm transmitter (one of the most important reasons i bought this phone) is that it is not usable in some countries(I'm from Trinidad)
I wish that i could Cue songs in the Walkman player to make a list of songs i want to here in succession
I expected more from the speakers on the outside, they are ExTrEmElY!!! weak, i was very very disappointed
In conclusion, I fell in love with this phone because of how stylist it is, and i was saddened that the music department didn't holistically meeting my needs
I equip very weak, cam 3.2 with terrible quality, and it is very slowly, here in Brazil the value is u$500, it is not worthwhile

I've had this phone for more than a year now and i am still totally satisfied! This phone has features that i didn't even know could exist in a mobile phone.. The stereo speakers are not really what i expected, but apart from that this is one awesome phone!
