Features of the Sony Ericsson W995

• 8.1 MP Camera
• Walkman
• SMS
• MMS
• Slide Cover
• Numeric Keypad
• Head Phone Jack

Good Points of the Sony Ericsson W995

• 8.1 MP Camera. The camera in the Sony Ericsson W995 is a really good quality camera and of course, because the phone is a Sony, it is a Cyber Shot camera – one of Sony’s branched off brands. The camera in the Sony Ericsson W995 takes clear pictures and captures the most minute details. It also has a 10 X digital zoom to capture all the important details of life in a picture
• Numeric Keypad. The numeric keypad on the Sony Ericsson W995 has been praised for its keys as users say they are not too big or too small. The Sony Ericsson W995 also has specialist keys for its music player features. It has three keys situated above the numeric keypad which surround a circular navigation system button – the main way to control the walkman player in the Sony Ericsson W995
• Head Phone Jack. The head phone jack in the Sony Ericsson W995 measures at 3.55mm which means you have more scope in which to choose headphones to use with the Sony Ericsson W995. The Walkman built into the Sony Ericsson W995 is a good music player but it also needs a good set of headphones to use with it in order to get a real music experience

Bad Points of the Sony Ericsson W995

• Chunky. Users of the Sony Ericsson W995 have complained that the phone is quite chunky and takes up unnecessary space. The slide screen on the Sony Ericsson W995 is in itself, very slim but the main body of the phone is the part that makes it chunky.

Features of the Sony Ericsson W395

• 2MP Camera: The Sony Ericsson W395 comes with a built in 2MP Camera
• SMS: The Sony Ericsson sends SMS messages and can store up to 200 in its inbox.
• MMS: It can also send a limited number of multimedia messages which can contain pictures taken on the Sony Ericsson W395’s camera
• MP3 Player: The Sony Ericsson W395 is advertised as a music phone and comes with a built in MP3 player (ear phones are also attached in the packaging)
• Slide Numeric Keypad: The Sony Ericsson W395 has a slide keypad which means the screen will be bigger
• Choice of three colours. The Sony Ericsson W395 comes in black grey and titanium colours.

Good Points of the Sony Ericsson W395

• Comes in 3 colours. The Sony Ericsson W395 comes in three colours: Black, grey and titanium and buyers are able to choose which ever colour they want before committing to buy.

Bad Points of the Sony Ericsson W395

• Bad value for money. Critics and people who own the Sony Ericsson W395 have frequently said that it isn’t worth the money you pay for it. The Sony Ericsson W395 is available to buy from between £39.99 to £49.99. One of the worst problems with the Sony Ericsson W395 is its slide feature and many users have reported that the slide feature is weak and slides open and shut of its own accord. The camera is below average for a camera of its strength (2 mega pixels ) and many cameras of the same strength in other phones work much better (for example in Nokia phones). The Sony Ericsson W395 is a walkman phone but the sound quality is considered to be really bad and tinny. This is just with the ear phones that come with the phone. Some users have reported that the problem improves a little when they use their own (and better quality) ear phones but the sound quality still isn’t what you would expect from a Sony phone, especially considering the price of the handset.

Bad Points of the Sony Ericsson Naite.

• Price: However, other users and critics of the Sony Ericsson Naite say that it is over priced for what you get in the phone. Critics have said that most of the price tag is equated to the fact that the phone is a Sony and that it is ‘eco’ meaning that people will pay more for it ro ‘save’ the environment.

Bad Points of the Sony Ericsson Aino

• Over Priced: Some users and critics have said that the Sony Ericsson Aino is overpriced for what you get in the handset and accessories. There are other phones on the market that offer the same features and technology as the Sony Ericsson Aino and they are priced much lower. Some critics have pointed out that a large chunk of the price is probably because the phone has the Sony name associated with it and Sony products tend to be very expensive.

• Key Pad: Critics have stated that the key pad on the Sony Ericsson Aino is very basic for a phone of its technology and that it doesn’t live up to the standard that Sony have set for their phones.

The Sony Ericsson Yari is a slide phone which means the numeric keypad is hidden on first look. One of the most interesting features of the Sony Ericsson Yari is its built in games. It features a small number of original games that aren’t featured on any other Sony Ericsson phones. The Sony Ericsson Yari has led critics to draw comparisons between it and the Nintendo Wii as some of the games on the Sony Ericsson Yari are motion (or gesture) controlled. The Sony Ericsson Yari also features specialist gaming keys. Apart from the games mentioned the Sony Ericsson Yari is actually quite a normal phone. It is able to send SMS and multimedia messages and make calls. The camera featured in the Sony Ericsson Yari is good and in the upper end of the market at 5MP.

Feature of the Sony Ericsson Yari

• WAP Browser: The Sony Ericsson Yari is able to connect to the internet and access certain mobile websites.
• YouTube Application: The Sony Ericsson Yari has a YouTube shortcut so you can access YouTube on the move

Although the Sony Ericsson K330 is a simple phone it can also take and store a limited about of photos (250 according to the Sony Ericsson website). It can also record and store 12 minutes of video. Although it can’t store 250 pictures and 12 minutes of video, it can store either one or the other. The Sony Ericsson K330 has a numeric key pad and doesn’t have any elements of touch screen. The memory in the Sony Ericsson is average for a phone of its low price and it can store up to 1000 contacts and 450 text messages (and multimedia messages although these will take up more space). One of the quirky features of the Sony Ericsson is its flashlight. In the early 2000s many mobile phone manufacturers went through phases of building flash lights into their phones, mostly Nokia. The flash light in the Sony Ericsson is located at the top of the phone.

Bad Points of the Sony Ericsson K330

There aren’t many bad points you can make about the Sony Ericsson K330 considering its price. One point I would like to make is that this phone is not widely available and there is no evidence that it is being distributed to mobile phone stores in the UK any more. It  is however, available to order from certain websites although it cannot be bought from the Sony Ericsson site at this present date.

Features of the Sony Ericsson Satio

• 12 MP Camera: The camera in the Sony Ericsson Satio is probably the best in built phone in a mobile on the market. Although experts in the field of cameras have said that only 8MP is really needed to take a good quality picture, the 12 MP camera in the Sony Ericsson is really rare. Admittedly it will mean that the Sony Ericsson costs a lot of money but some customers think it is worth it!
• Touch Screen. The touch screen in the Sony Ericsson Satio is fast becoming a popular feature in mobile phones and it is not different with this phone.
• 3 colours: The Sony Ericsson Satio is available in three colours: black, red and silver
• Weight: The Sony Ericsson Satio weights only 122 grams
• MP3 Player: Nearly all mobile phones come with MP3 players these days and the Mp3 player in the Sony Ericsson Satio is standard
• Movie Player: Something that sets the Sony Ericsson Satio apart from the other phones in its field is that it can play movies – something which other phones don’t usually have the power to do
• Wi-Fi: Again, this is a common feature in most up market mobile phones today.

Good Points of the Sony Ericsson Satio

• 12 MP Camera. The 12 MP camera is definatley a talking point about the Sony Ericsson Satio and takes very clear pictures that look good even when they are uploaded to a computer.

Bad Points of the Sony Ericsson Satio

• Very Sensitive Touch Screen. Some users have criticised the Sony Ericsson Satio for having too sensitive a touch screen as they find it hinders navigation around the phone rather than helps it.

The general consensus when it comes to Sony Ericsson phones is that they are overpriced because of the Sony name. However, individual retailers may discount the handsets to make them more attractive, and there is no denying Sony Ericsson have produced some great phones over the years and cater for all needs with their phone ranges. Sony Ericsson phones range from cheap to very expensive so there is something for everyone. Let’s have a look at some of Sony Ericsson’s wide range of phones:

Sony Ericsson Aino

The Sony Ericsson Aino was released in late 2009 and is one of Sony’s more modern phones. It combines modern technology with some parts of technology from the past as the Sony Ericsson Aino combines a touch screen with a slide out keypad. The key pad on the Sony Ericsson Aino is alpha numeric which means it combines letters and numbers on the key pad.

Sony Ericsson K330

The Sony Ericsson K330 is one of Sony’s cheaper phones and it has been given consistently bad reviews but I’m going to look at it anyway to give you an idea of what your looking at when you buy a budget phone from Sony. The Sony Ericsson K330 is a very simple phone and works for calling and texting – but those are about the only features that it manages to do well. The Sony Ericsson K330 can store up to 450 pictures and take 12 minutes of video but that estimate is based on the maximum amount of memory that it can have before pre sale programming. The Sony Ericsson K330 also has a flashlight situated on the top of the phone.

Sony Ericsson T715 Pink/Silver

The Sony Ericsson T715 comes in two colours – Pink and Silver (or chrome) and is one of Sony Ericsson’s budget phones. Other budget Sony Ericsson phones have been reported by users as poor quality, especially with the audio files. The Sony Ericsson T715 Pink however seems to be one of the best budgets phones that Sony have to offer. The Sony Ericsson T715 has lots of technology that can be found on other and more espensive Sony Ericsson phones. The Sony Ericsson T715 also comes with an in built camera of 3.2 mega pixels with  a 5 x zoom.

Overall

Although some Sony Ericsson phones are a little over priced, you can often find good discounts or incentives offered by the retailers. Sony Ericsson produce good quality phones and if you fork out a lot of money for one you can be sure that it will last and last. Some Sony Ericsson phones are good for doing business on the move as nearly all the modern ones feature internet connections but if you want something a little more full time then you’d be better off going for a smart phone from Nokia or Blackberry.
