It is rather a strategy that SE kept the beautiful shape candy-bar phones with that similar joystick in the middle. It was a big hit when it first released.

But then they should consider how much more will this fashion going to be.. another 2 year? 4 year?

Their Camera wise is the best among all, but complaints to the phone like the phone will hang itself when operate the phone itself is common too. There is a need to actually change about it. And lastly, SE should inproves in its clamshell phones. It looks pretty a toy to me. And there isnt a sliding phone under SE right? And also why isnt SE joining the sliming competition with other companies?

      to people like HP'sdownunder and etc.

      this shape has been around for YEARS.. yes years!!!!

      they keep this because it sells well and people new to SE can easily reconise the phone and use it. SE continue to bring out different designd/ different content mobile phones to help with other users to meet their needs.

      but ALSO stick to the older shapes. because if it sells well, why stop?? i know i would keep going! because new/old customers can easily pick up this phone and use it and not be put off by thinking " ah.. sony ericsson make all them confusing phones!" they want to attract EVERYONE.. lol. meh. thats all.

        Something wrong with SE's studios...have a look at these 3 phones:W800-K750 and now W700...they're the same phones but with different names...come on SE,do something different..!!

          Smart move from SE! Really smart, they take a best seller and made a cheapper version, users with less money will be able to by a walkman phone too. Anyway, the only bad thing is the ugly design, SE designers didn't try at all to make a good looking phone, one of the best and one of the uglyest

            i dont think SE did a great choice, they should concentrate on their effort to create more new design, better function phone,not create twin phone!

              No autofocus? This is lacking one of the best part of W800. I'll buy W810.

                    Hey guys the only diffs between w800 and w700 are...
                    1. w800 ships with 512MB MS while w700 ships with only 256MB MS.
                    2. w800 has cam autofocus but w700 dosent.

                    point 2 has alot of effect on the price as autofocus is a very good and expensive when installed in phones.

                    Hope i helped :)

                          this doesnt look bad at all!! who cares if it's a w800 chassis... i figured it would just be cheaper :)

                            And lets be honest, i think the w600 , w550 don't look good. And guys in life if something works, you stick with it. The design for the w800 is the best i've seen so why change it,

                            Look at the razr, That phone is about 50% of motorola's income, now if ur head of motorola are you really going to alter that design? NOpe

                              DJblakel we need more people like you. Isn't it obvious that the W800 was a hit phone , but i hear people say the didn't like the orange and the phone is somewhat price. So hmm if ur sony why not expand marketshare by creating the a cheaper walkman phone, All you do is reduce the memory card take out the autofocus and wah lah, basically a walkman W800 for 100 dollars or so less

                                please only post once

                                as i said. the reason why it is being released again is because of how well it is selling (K750i and w800i)

                                it is being re released because.
                                upgraded design. some people did not like the look for the white and orange theme. this theme is alot more "cleaner" looking and wil attract new buyers. More buyers the better for SE, dont you think?

                                it has an upgraded MP3 firmware. it is more stable than the w800 and 750. better organisation design will result in less crashes/confusion on MP3 organisation.

                                bigger memory card. means just that, more memory.

                                in all other aspects, it is still the same phone, just better built, better desing and more memory to simply attract new users. SE will continue to bring out more models of phones, but at the same time. keep at the origonal theme everyone knows and loves. as this will keep sales rolling in.

                                anyways. why is everyone starting to bag out the w700 because "its the same desing"? for the ppl who dont know. this desing has been here since 2001 with the k700 and T610!.

                                        To the People who are banging on about how much his fone is the same as the w800 will u please be quiet.
                                        The w800, features and design wise, rocks. I own one myself, but for the people who aint too keen on the design (ie my mother) and still want a great fone features wise the w700 is perfect. Personally i love the new design, i think its classy and appeals to ppl other than in the 20somethings, which for the last few months thats all they have catered for.
                                        At the end of the day this fone looks good and is good so why are you all slating it?
