Sony Ericsson W705 now official - Wi-Fi confirmed, GPS not

06 Nov, 2008
Just as expected, today Sony Ericsson announced their new Walkman phone - the Sony Ericsson W705. The high-end slider is the first music-dedicated feature phone by the company to feature Wi-Fi. Unluckily...

                  On the contrary...

                  The color combination of red and black is just gorgeous. it definitely going to stand-out.

                      Sony ericsson Walkman series- its a tale of non winning tortoise imo. Like to mention i had been se fan and probably have been. This confusion is for the lagging music quality from their device. To be precise they are struggling in the loudness, clear and full bass as well as sharp treble, compatibility with 3rd party earphones (although the remote offers the hole for the jack, but to me the 3rd party headphones just dont click with se phones), standard mini usb port. What i appreciate improvement of screensize to 2.4 inch, this is the least size for a good phone now a days. I appreciate the batteries, display quality (inspite of being smaller), file management, fast response, good cameras (i dont like megapixel rush in phones). Last of all sony ericsson is constantly keeping their pricetag quite higher than they should.

                        Anonymous, 06 Nov 2008Look at nokia's nseries, the 'lower' end N79 has way more s... moreI agree that , but N79 cant give the nice earphone of W705 and pure clear audio quality. It is made for pure music and far better than N series and Xpress Music.

                              he color is much better, compared to the horrible red.

                                    very walkman-like not a mobile phone..
                                    and the audio set looks just like jbl for ipod.
                                    not creative at all..
