Just sent W800 back after 3 days of 14 day trial. I would recommend anyone this phone who likes taking loads of pictures, the quality is fantastic. the problem I had was when texting. If you are a mad texter like me, being used to Nokia messaging I found the Sony slow to get through the menu's and just not as easy to use Otherwise cool phone with loads of features..

    I have had the phone for three months and it's fantastic! All features are great! Music and picture quality are the best! Battery life: 1 week if it's not heavily used, otherwise around 4 days. I recommend it very eagerly! I don't think there is a better phone in the market!

      Hi, I just have another Q, the review of the phone on this site posted a very very poor quality video recording of this phone, can someone confirm for me if the recording for this phone is indeed this poor?

        This phone has a great design and i love the orange theme that was adopted in making this phone. However, i am slightly sceptical about the battery life of the phone. It seem to die out very fast. I charged it to full batt and it is now about 40% left after just 48 hours. It was said on this website tat it can last up to 400 hours standby time. Apparently, i didn't use the hp heavily but the battery seem to die out fast. Something to think about for users thinking of buying this phone.

          I've just purchased this phone over the internet. I will have it very soon and I'm so excited!! I've just told one of my mates, and she screamed that her aunt had it and it was the best camera in the world!! Now I'm soo excited! She said that she'd never seen such a good phone!! :D I'll let you know iff it really is any good when I get it!!! I'm sure I won't regret this!!

            To Hu..

            Well Hu, both phones are absoultely fantastic, indeed. Its you who have to make the right choice. Well, this w800 basically has everything that you probably want. And V3x is not a bad phone at all, but its probably not that good compare to this one. Cheers..

                  Hi, I'm thinking about buying this phone but would like a few Qs answered (sorry if they are repeats) from ppl who have it.

                  1. Can it play short movies such as Music videos
                  2. can you really only record 30 sec of video and no longer?
                  2. Can Mp3 be easily and quickly set as the ringtone? (sharp 903 has alot of problem with this feature)
                  3. do you have to convert mp3 to atrac 3 ..which was teh playing format for other sony network walkmans

                      I have many problems with the Disc2Phone software (only the folder name and first song seem to be transferred by the program) and although I have updated the software, this did not resolve my problem. So far, my solution has been to transfer the files that Disc@Phone has saved on my computer, onto my phone directly, into the MP3 directory. Has anyone found a better solution to this problem?
                      Apart from the above, it is a great phone, mainly due to the MP3 function, however, I do miss the user friendlyness of my old Nokia at times!
