W900i Review
|
I have just recently bought a Sony Ericsson W900i for around 615 USD. My phone choices before I bought it was the N90, W800i and W900i. N90 has superior imaging and camera while the W800i/W900i has better sound quality. The W800i is not much different from W900i except that W900i has 3G capabilities, better screen size, battery life and more pricey. I have been using the phone for a few days and here’s are the list of functions, pros and cons of the phone. |

Yeah there wasn’t much lag time during the transition of menu navigation so I would consider it pretty smooth. N92 wasn’t out in my area yet so I couldn’t review it.

It’s a very nice phone.. I’ve been using it for the past one week… The only thing i dont like is the battery.. It can only be last long for 1 day if constantly use for music… Other then that, it’s a good phone to buy..
