Sony Ericsson W800

Plays digital music, handles phone calls, and takes astounding pictures and video in one tiny device not much bigger than the mobile phone we’re using right now.

What’s Hot: Since there won’t be an Apple iPod phone, so this Walkman phone will just have to do. Introducing the new Sony Ericsson W800 Walkman phone that plays digital music, handles phone calls, and takes astounding pictures and video in one tiny device not much bigger than the mobile phone we’re using right now. It will hold about 512MB (0.5GB) of mp3 on its supplied Memory Stick Duo – enough for approximately 150 songs. It pauses your music when a call is answered. But it’s our pick of the month because the sound quality is impeccable (thus earning the name Walkman) and its continuous battery life of 15 hours is simply amazing. Apparently you can squeeze 30 hours of playback if you turn the phone feature off and just use it as a standalone music player! That’s twice the battery life of a regular iPod!

What’s Hotter: No compromises on the camera, phone or music features. Built-in 2 mega pixel camera with fantastic auto-focus feature and a host of advanced digital-camera options will give you professionally sound results.

Sony Ericsson W800 this is a complete copy of the K750 different in design and positioning as a entertainment center - the company uses the Walkman brand. When the phone is off the mp3 player works 2 times longer (up to 30 hours). The packages also differ, 512 MB memory card is included. The models are functionally identical and no any other differences may be found.

Sony Ericsson W800 class: entertaining, youth
Position in the line: leader
Rivals: no direct rivals at the moment, indirect ones are Nokia’s smartphones
