Overall
Design Features Usabilityvery good phone, easy to work and smart looking
It is a very good phone and easy to work and a smart looking phone, I will always buy Sony Ericsson, my husband has just bought one and he says the same as he has always had Nokia and he will never buy one of them again, he is made up with the Walkman it can store hundreds of songs.
Overall Design
Features Usabilityreally easy to use and it looks attractive
This Sony Ericsson mobile phone is really easy to use and it looks attractive. You can get it in other colors as well which is great. It has the shake mode (shake the phone to change he music track), which is ok, however I do not use the shake mode as it looks strange shaking a mobile phone while walking down the street.

Design Features
UsabilityWalkman is handy and saves me carrying an MP3 around
A very good and modern looking phone, with many desirable features, easy to use and clear labelling.
The lights on the side of the phone are interesting and cool when you receive a call, and there is a range of folours to choose from to suit your mood or style.
The keys could be larger but most Sony Ericcson phones I have seen tend to have smaller keys. Not always easy to hear when on the phone, as you have to hold the device at a certain angle to hear clearly.
Overall, I really like the phone and the features are really unique. The Walkman is handy and saves me carrying an MP3 around.
Overall Design Features Usabilitysecond Sony Ericsson phone I have had, I am very pleased with it
This is the second Sony Ericsson phone I have had and on the whole I am very pleased with it. I particularly enjoy the Walkman feature and feel this offers good sound quality. On the minus side the key pad can become 'unlocked' if you do not take care - I have found it requires a pouch to stop this happening. The phone is easy to use and I would recommend it.
Overall Design Features UsabilityLast week my back and call button started acting up
I haven't had any problems with this phone, that is until last week. Last week my back and call button started acting up, then it stopped working all together, which meant anytime I went into the menu the only way for me to get out of it was to turn my phone off. Cingular replaced my phone but sent me a phone that I can't hear unless I have it on speaker phone or am using the headset, Very Very aggravating!
Overall Design Features UsabilityAn excellent all rounder
Love this phone, the camera is great, nice and easy to use. An excellent all rounder, the phone has a great deal of memory and has excellent sound for playing music. Bluetooth is easy to use. Good visuals and easy to use for videos and playback.
Overall Design Features UsabilityThe W850i from Ericsson is very unique and easy to use
I absolutely love the design of this phone, its very unique and easy to use. The phone includes all the features you would expect of any phone, for example camera, games etc, but with lots of extras.
The phone even includes a fitness feature, again making this mobile phone quite unique. Its easy to text on which is what I mainly use the phone for and is easy to navigate around to find the various different features.
Overall
Design Features UsabilityWhats the point in paying to get it fixed a fourth time around
This is the worst mobile phone I have ever had, I had it and within a month it had to go into repair due to cracked buttons and I had to pay to get it fixed.
Then it had to go back in due to speaker problems, I had to pay for that, then it had to go back in due to the bluetooth and guess what I have had to pay for that.
This time around the screen has snuffed up but I thought to myself whats the point in paying to get it fixed the fourth time around? I know what I'll just throw it away, whats the point?
Overall Design Features UsabilityHas a fitness programme on it and a pedometer
This phone is brilliant for women, it has a fitness programme on it and a pedometer. Its also stylish and easy to use, comes in a range of colours.
Only one problem is that the numbers on the keypad may come off but it can be easily fixed because all Sony phones come with 2yrs warranty
Overall Design Features UsabilityPhone repaired 3 times and still the buttons break and fall off!
I'm having a nightmare with this handset at the moment, although it has really good features such as the Walkman music centre, step counter for my fitness, video and picture messaging, none of this is any good if the buttons keep breaking and falling off. I have had this phone repaired 3 times and still the buttons break and fall off which makes it difficult to press the buttons needed to text and play music.
Overall Design Features UsabilityAfter six months the speaker has started to play up
My number pads have all split within a month of getting the phone and now after six months the speaker has started to play up. When anyone rings me it is hit and miss whether they can hear me, I have to wiggle the phone around to get the speaker to work. Although it does look good it is not the best phone I have had.
Overall Design Features UsabilityGreat, features and everything are excellent
This phone would be great, features and everything are excellent but it doesnt hold its charge, I have to charge the phone every day, (but I guess this could be resolved with a new battery?) I love the Walkman even though the downloads can only be used for the Walkman and not for ringtones, but that might justbe the service provider.
Overall Design Features UsabilityOne major problem - the cracking keys
I bought this phone as a present for my girlfriend, the functionality of the phone is great, however there is one major problem - the cracking keys.
Believe it - this is a real problem. The first time it happened, the phone was sent back with a promise of better keys. It took about a month to come back, and now the same thing has happened again, the phone is now back with provider.
Overall Design Features UsabilityThe best mobile phone I have ever had
I spent £200 on this phone, which is a first for me, and it is the best mobile phone I have ever had. Its user friendly, great battery life, it even has a personal trainer within the features!!!!! I much prefer the limited edition blue, which is more expensive, but in the 10 months I've had this phone, I've not seen anyone else with one. Fantastic phone
Overall Design Features UsabilityMy buttons have been fine - best phone I have had
This phone is the best phone I've purchased.
I read reviews saying that the keys broke easily however mine seem to be fine. The only problem is that when you record a video and zoom in, you can hear the sound of the buttons being pressed to zoom in.
The camera quality and the memory is excellent.
It also has features like a step counter which is useful if you want to find out how many steps you've taken.
It's easy to text on and the style is of the phone attractive.
Overall Design Features UsabilityI will always want a walkman phone now - love it
I absolutly love this phone I have always had Sony Ericssons and I love the walkman phones. The ring tones are so much louder and clearer.
I think noe I have had a walkman phone that I will always want a walkman phone.
Also it is not too hard to use. It is quite simple to use so anybody should be fine with it.
I have the white version which I also think is really trendy!
Overall Design Features UsabilityI am more than happy with it
This phone looks modern and stylish everything you would expect from a company like Sony Ericcson. Its slim, light , user friendly and has a large colourful screen. The camera is excellent, ive taken some really good quality shots .Unfortunately on the down side it feels quite delicate, and the keypad is smaller than some phones and takes some getting use too. The other problem i have had is with the charger, it again has two very fine pins which plug into the phone and on the first recharge broke and my supplier had to replace it. However although its not as robust as some phones im more than happy with it.
Overall Design Features UsabilityPlagued with faults
I bought this phone for my daughter and this is the third one she has had, the first we couldn't get the back off (neither could the staff), the 2nd the buttons cracked and the third the buttons have nearly all cracked, one has fallen off, another button at the top left of the phone is hanging on by a piece of plastic.
I'm currently in a battle with Orange who say it is over the 28 day guarantee and it is up to Sony Ericson, i was 4 days over the 28 day guarantee they give.
Orange have offered to fix it but I have said no, we have had three and they have been plagued with faults, we want our money back or a different phone.
Would I recommend this phone, NO most definetly not.
Overall Design Features UsabilityReal let down
I got this fone as a xmas present, but my buttons have already cracked and a number of them have stopped working so is now hard 2 use.
I really wouldn't recommend this fone 2 anyone as i've only had it for just under 4 months and already looking 2 buy a new one.
This is a real let down for Sony Ericsson.
Overall Design Features UsabilityIts really nifty
The w580i mobile is a great phone from Sony Ericsson.
I just got one as a slightly early Christmas present as I needed a new phone as I lost my previous one.
The w580 has a great feature on it where you can get a random track by shaking it! :)
Its really nifty.
This is a nice looking and good performing phone and would highly recommend!
Overall Design Features UsabilityReally does look nice
I really love this phone. Ive got this exact model as pictured and it really does look nice. Its the reason I bought it. Extremely happy with my w580i mobile phone.
