Sony Ericsson W350a review

When designing cell phones for its Walkman line, Sony Ericsson likes to spread the love around. While most of its music handsets are high-end models with fancy features , the company has made an effort to offer budget options as well. Though they have...

The Sony Ericsson W350a offers a Walkman music player and a decent assortment of features including stereo Bluetooth and a brilliant display.

The Sony Ericsson W350a has poorly designed controls and a flimsy construction. Its call quality was unimpressive and the tiny speaker doesn't do its music player justice.

The Sony Ericsson W350a isn't hopeless but it's not our choice for a Walkman phone.

Sony Ericsson W350a

The Sony Ericsson W350a appears to have fallen short in this particular entry-level version of its Walkman line. Unlike its more expensive and thoughtful counterparts, the W350a delivers on music, but at the expense of awkward design, weak speaker and...

Sony Ericsson W350i Review

The new Sony Ericsson W350i is a mid-level ranged mobile phone that adds to the Walkman series portfolio. As it has been a long time since a famous handset manufacturer launched a flip phone, W350i brings back the Sony Ericsson's T series feeling....

There are quite a few nice features that make W350i a good choice as a low-budget phone. Exquisite design, good quality multimedia features, above average battery and the possibility to expand its storage space make Sony Ericsson's W350i worth every...

I have found that not always a high quality display is enough for a handset ; it also has to be a large one. The 1.9 inches TFT screen is surely too small for a multimedia-oriented handset and is definitely one important slack of the flip phone. Also,...

The backside of the phone features a small unprotected 1.3 Megapixel camera at the top and a small loudspeaker at the bottom. The back cover is so slim that you can actually see through it (I'm joking!). Even so, it is extremely flexible, thus reducing...

First Looks: Sony Ericsson W350i

The Walkman brand has had a long legacy but it shows no sign of growing old. We take a look at the next product bearing the famous name, the Sony Ericsson W350i.

Retailing at $298 (RRP), the W350i seems a sweet deal for consumers looking for a MP3 player and phone. While it may not appeal to everyone, the phone will be welcomed by users searching for a portable audio player that leads a double life as a...

Sony Ericsson W350i review

A stylish Walkman phone for the smaller budget

High quality Walkman music player ; Budget price ; Slimline flip design ; External music player controls ; 512B M2 memory card ; Decent earphones supplied

Basic 1.3-megapixel camera ; No flash or autofocus for camera ; No video capture facilities ; No 3G ; Poor loudspeaker quality

A modest feature set, but this phone offers a superior music package for a bargain price

Sony Ericsson W350i review

Sony Ericsson's newest budget Walkman music phone looks like an MP3 player – but is it as sonically slick as its dedicated brethren?

Sports nifty MP3 player looks, but puny phone features let this Walkman phone down

Combining Candybar and Clamshell : Sony Ericsson W350i mobile phone

Aimed at the younger generation, the Sony Ericsson W350 handset is positioned at the lower end of the Walkman range of mobile phones.

Predominately black in colour with occasional touches of orange, the W350 is a sort of a cross between a candybar and clamshell model. While the 1.8-inch colour screen remains visible at all times, the main keypad layout is concealed behind a cover...

Sony Ericsson W350i

Sony Ericsson W350i is a small mobile phone that packs a big punch. It is has good audio programs where the user can listen to the radio or upload songs to the memory. The phone comes in ice blue, graphic white, electric black, and hypnotic black...

With the likes of Sony's Mega Bass the W350i is OK as an MP3 player. It's a shame that Sony Ericsson forgot that this was supposed to be a phone as well. Sony Ericsson W350i is tagged with Sony Ericsson, mobile phone, MP3 player, Walkman and EDGE....
