Amazon.com Product Description The Sony Ericsson W800 was a big hit. Now, here comes the sequel, the W810i. All the same great Walkman features are here, along with robust phone functions, but now you get quad-band GSM, a larger and brighter display, and perhaps most importantly, support for EDGE high speed data. In addition to a powerful and easy-to-use Walkman music player, the W810i boasts a 2-megapixel auto-focus camera with flash, a Memory Stick Duo card slot, Bluetooth, and a speakerphone. Simply put, this baby's loaded. 
Big screen, big features, big fun. View aninteractive demonstration of the W810i. You can also check out theW810i video. |  Two megapixels of camera goodness. | This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz). It does not come with a SIM card, and it requires that you provide a SIM card for usage with your selected service provider. This phone comes with a one-year warranty from a third party provider. Design The W810i follows a long tradition of beautifully designed and crafted phones from Sony Ericsson. The same candy-bar style that graced the W800 is here, as is the horizontally-oriented camera unit on the back of the phone, allowing you to hold the phone just as you would a camera when you're taking pictures. The W810i's screen sports 176 x 220 pixel resolution with support for 262,000 colors. Quick access buttons below the screen make it easy to control the phone's Walkman music features, while a five-way center button controls most of the phone's menus and features. The W810i contains 20 MB of embedded memory, but as mentioned, a Memory Stick Duo slot is provided, and it also supports Pro Duo cards, giving you storage capacities of 2 GB and beyond. The phone ships with a 512 MB Memory Stick Duo card. Of course, there's also a port for the phone's included stereo headset. USB and infrared data ports are provided, as well, and the phone supports USB mass storage so you can simply plug the phone into your computer and drag and drop files into the phone's memory using the included Disc2Phone PC application. To top it all off, the W810i's camera flash can double as a flashlight. Calling Features The W810i's phone book can hold up to 1000 contacts with multiple entries per contact. A call list remembers your most recent missed, received and dialed calls. The phone's voice activated dialing makes calling your contacts as easy as saying their names, while the built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear. Polyphonic ringtones are included and you can also use MP3 and AAC music files as ringtones. A cool application called Music DJ even lets you mix your own ringtones. Meanwhile, picture caller ID lets you assign a photo to specific callers. Similarly, a ringer ID lets you assign ringtones to callers. For those times you want to keep things discreet, there's a vibrate ringer mode. And because the W810i is Bluetooth-enabled, you can use a variety of headsets and handsfree kits for total wireless freedom when you're on the go. Messaging, Internet, and Tools If you're looking for a mobile productivity partner, the W810i has you covered. Support is built in for sending and receiving pictures, text, graphics, and sound via MMS messages. When used in combination with the phone's built-in still and video camera, MMS opens up a whole new world of messaging possibilities. The phone also ships with a built-in email client with support for POP3, IMAP4 and SMTP protocols, while the included Access NetFront Web Browser allows you to surf full HTML web sites. T9 text entry, a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users. Getting on the Internet is easy with the W810i, as it supports the GPRS protocol, as well as the high speed EDGE data protocol. When used with your carrier data plan and the phone's Bluetooth or USB data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs. A number of handy software tools are bundled with the W810i, including a voice memo recorder, a to-do list, a calculator, a calendar and an alarm clock. The phone also supports the SyncML PC synchronization standard, which lets you synchronize your PC-based calendar, contacts, notes and tasks with your W810i. Imaging and Entertainment The W810i is a Walkman phone, and that means it offers a great mobile music experience. Load up your favorite songs in MP3 or AAC format on a memory card and listen to your heart's content. The user-friendly music player application also includes a "Music Mode" that shuts down the phone functions so you can listen on an airplane or anytime you don't want to accept calls. Meanwhile, Digital Mega Bass and stereo widening combine to enhance your listening experience. There's even an FM radio for catching the big game or your favorite stations. The radio also supports reception of digital song information from radio stations. And don't forget about that powerful 2-megapixel camera, which features something most camera phones lack--autofocus. Finally, you can get consistently great shots from any distance, shots that rival the quality of a dedicated digital camera. The camera also features an LED flash and a 4x digital zoom, and it can capture video, as well. Dedicated controls on the side of the unit will make you forget you're holding a phone in your hand. And what about gaming? This phone is definitely geared for the mobile fun fanatic, as it supports widescreen and 3D games. The W810i comes preloaded with several games and more are downloadable from Sony Ericsson. Vital Statistics The Sony Ericsson W810i weighs 3.49 ounces and measures 3.94 x 1.81 x .77 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 8 hours of digital talk time, and up to 350 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 frequencies. This phone comes with a one-year warranty from a third party provider.

Not worth it April 28, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This phone is not worth the high price associated with it. I bought this phone thinking it would have been as good as the black version but I was sorely disappointed. One of the headphone plugs was missing its rubber, the charger came with an adapter that didn't work and there was no memory card. The body is made out of cheap plastic and the screen size is waaaay smaller than the black version. Take my advice, don't waste your money like I did. If there was a half star review, this phone would get it.
TERRIBLE PRODUCT! April 18, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I thought that this piece of junk would be worth the while to purchase, but I was sorely mistaken. The phone does not have good reception whatsoever. I have always had NOkia phones with Cingular and AT&T and this was the very first time I purchased a SONY ERICSSON and it still does not perform well like years ago when this brand first came out. Go with Nokia or motorola...they are dependable and reliable for reception purchases. Don't buy this phone!
Nice little phone / Walkman February 7, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have always respected Sony for its Walkman products, and thought combining Walkman with phone would be a great idea. I was looking for a hardy but small phone that could play music also. I like that I don't have to have my mp3 player all the time because this phone can double as that in a pinch, like when I'm wandering around the mall. The overall sound quality is pretty good. The included 512 MB card is large enough to hold a variety of my favorite songs and pictures. The software that comes with this phone is easy to use, and even gives me the option of compressing my audio files when I transfer them to the phone. Yes, it does decrease the sound quality, but if you want to have great sound all the time, then grab your mp3 player. The camera takes pretty good pictures, but if you use the zoom at all they can be grainy. Overall this is a great PHONE, it takes good pictures and plays music well, without taking away from its ability to be my cell phone. The phone has a lot of features, like a calendar and alarms, and can store a lot of contacts. The screen is nice with a crisp, clear picture. Plus, I chose to buy the white one and it's way prettier than the black one. I've dropped this phone a few times since I bought it about 6-ish months ago and it's still going strong. Also, its sleek design keeps me from having that lovely bulge in my pocket. Although I have never owned or used a smart phone, so I can't compare this to an iPhone or anything like that, I can say I like this one better than any of the Motorolas I've used and seen, and it seems to last longer and get better reception than them as well.
