26 January 2020
These two had mostly the same hardware, but only one boasted a Walkman logo.

one reason why people left sony phones nowadays that because Sony designed their phones based only from japan customer, they forgot that they already going global so their most consumer are from outside japan. Samsung realized this problems (in era where Sony Ericsson, Motorola and Nokia are still on top) their design arent favored by westerner except asian, in order to get attention from westerner, samsung redesigned their phones more simple and minimalist, thats why samsung got traction then climbing their position to the top now

      I really love these phone. I had k700, w550.w850, w 950,k700, Xperia p1, Xperia 10, Xperia vivaz, Xperia TX, and Xperia z5 premium.. I really love Sony

        Had the w800i great device. Pictures where awesome for that time during daylight.

          W995 was my regular drive. Awesome device. Metal body, stylish design, brilliant sound quality. This device is my best-used device to date. I have it in my drawer. I never found it's original battery, device perfectly functional still now. Love Sony Ericsson W995a..

            i ever had both ❤️

                  Loved the K750. The camera cover actually helped protect mine. Had an annoying dent in it after 4months though. Back in the day when O2 had their loyalty discounts I managed to pick a new one up from the store for under £30. Good times.

                    I remember the k750, it was one of my first phones that I really was WOW with. The wife still has her red W600, brings back great memories.

                      A flashback indeed for me. I loved my W800 I thought it was the bees knees and It just looked so cool.....actually it still does.

                        Whoever knows anything about tech, knows the kind of innovator Sony is.
                        Owning their product was a dream in our childhood. They were class apart in Literally everything.
                        No other brand could capture half decent image with their phones what Sony did in their days.
