Kevin Deegan, 31 Jul 2008No offence meant but have you ever seen a v640 it looks not... moreI've got an even better idea - why don't you actually read the item you're criticising. My comment was a reply to somebody else who had been talking about the W902. I was NOT comparing the W980 to the V640, but the W902 which, from the front, does look kinda similar to the V640. If you're gonna pick holes in people's comments, at least read them properly...

maybe w595 speaker will better than w980 cause the stereo speaker of w595 is larger than w980... but i think w980 still better in headset audio quality because i think SE put a special sound chip to this phone (also w980 include hpm-77 the latest headset for high end walkman,the quality even better than hpm-70,the ordinary headset that you'll get in mid end walkman phone) after that both phones are comparable in other specs except internal memory...
but i think the price of w595 will cheaper than this phone...

Revenant, 11 Jul 2008Could be really cool if this is genuine, but it looks too m... moreNo offence meant but have you ever seen a v640 it looks nothing like the w980i its not even a clamshell design' If you gonna make a comparison to another phone at least research the other phone it helps.

does anyone have a problem with this phone auto restarting or auto shutting off? i just want to make sure it doesn't suck like the w910i which keeps having software probs.. also can anyone tell me for a fact if it has built-in fm receiver? i hate to use the earpiece for radio when i can use a wireless bluetooth one which is more convenient. thanks in advance =)

the people who said that this phone is worse than s500i was totaly liar!!!
the speaker is louder almost two times louder than s500i speaker cause this phone has stereo loudspeaker... the video cam is good enought too because it can record in QVGA30 fps... for headset sound, this phone even better than nokia 5610!!!
believe me this phone maybe the only one walkman phone that SE has put a sound chip... because this phone sounding far better than any walkman phones before... i've just bought this phone three days ago for replaced my w910i... this phone is really2 absolutely far better in audio quality compare to the w910i!!!

Wondering if someone can help? Question: When on a call and you close the flip - does the display 'count the seconds' you're on that call? My Z550i does and I want to upgrade but want to ensure is does this. Thanks heaps in advance.

Anonymous, 29 Jul 2008whats the problem or w980? n w980 better or w595 better?it depends what you want, you can't compare apple and oranges. w980 is high end phone and w595 is mid to high end phone. so it depends on your requirements and budget.

As far as video recording is concerned, our test Sony Ericsson W980 unit went as far as QVGA at 15fps. We know better though than rushing to a conclusion about video capabilities of beta units. There have been several cases when handsets that could only reach QVGA@15fps in their prerelease stages went as far as QVGA@30fps in the retail version.
does this say MIGHT have it? no it doesn't it says that it did have the feature in the prerelease stages. although i admit i was off but not as off as you. so before u tell someone how to read why don't u go back and read then reread it before making urself look like ur smarter than everyone else mmmkay?

I think the price tag is ridiculous way overpriced, I think I'll pick another phone with better features and even cheaper (maybe an S60). I think the big price tags are the main reason why SE is loosing market share.

i just picked up this phone yesterday. the sound quality is good but not great as xpected. it is clear and good but it sounds lower than my s500i. the dpad and soft keys are horrible to navigate bc it's to small. texting is great as the buttons are big and comfortable. i read the review on here and said the retail version had qvga 30 fps. if i remember correctly reading somewhere s500i only have qcif 15 fps but not sure. the w980 video is just the same if not even worst than the s500i. this was one of the selling point for me and big let down. picture quality is decent. camera position is a pain bc index has to sit right there. the lcd screen or qvga screen has low lighting. it's not even close to being bright like my s500i. i love flip phones and waited for this one but the features are bout the same as my s500i. thinking about sending this back. this phone is not worth 600 bout 400 maybe not even that. this phone is just eye candy nothing to brag about. the only thing i really like is the touch that is awesome. very responsive and easy to use.
