This is definitely best walkman series phone ever. Got it for about year now, and have no intend to change it. Camera is great, regarding this is W-series, and audio is superb. Price tag is kinda high, but eventually pays of undoubtfully. True SE flagship on the long run. Strongly recommended.

    Hey guys........dis phone just rocks...........
    I have been using dis since 6 months n dis wat i have xperienced.........
    -The best thing in the phone is its music,just awesome.....even though in the audio test some phones prove to be better than this,but believe me they can never compete its audio quality, the bass effect in the phone is the best i have heard till now....n hpm77 headphones r just superb......all this because its a clear audio and clear bass phone.....n 3.5mm jack is just a treat.....
    The stereo loud speakers r also very clear and loud....u will njoy listening to music through them..
    -The 8 mp camera is also very gud....but when u use it in auto settings u may feel dat the colours of the photos r a bit washed out....so to get the best out of it , use it in "Daylight mode" camera setting instead of auto mode setting in "White balance". The camera flash is strong enough to take photos even in very dark places provided that u have to increase the brightness a bit before taking the photos......
    It has also got a secondary video call camera..... The video recording of the phone is also very good with upto 30 fps recording......
    -The display of the phone is large and colourful,the light sensor irritates a bit though. even though its a 256k one , u cant differentiate it from a 16 million colours display at any point...
    -The battery backup of the phone is too good. For a moderate user it can run for 3 days and for heavy user, 2 days.. frankly, i dint expect this coming from sony ericsson......
    -The user interface of the phone is very fast. dont know whats the hardware inside it but it runs as if it has got a powerful processor inside it.... again this is another surprising thing from sony ericsson as before its phones used to be very slow......
    -The internet browsing on this phone is also fast enough for day to day browsing..........
    -The phone comes along with plenty of memory as it contains an 8 gig m2 card in it.....thanks for that SE, otherwise we would have got stripped of buying an 8 gig m2 card.........
    -GPS on the phone is also good.......
    -The phone has got many small but useful features like, the flash can be used as a torch...the shortcut music keys and walkman player key....the kickstand....
    -The build and slider mechanism of the phone feel solid..........
    -And one more feature dat no other phone has....u can open music player while transfering(even while sending) files through bluetooth.....

    All in all this phone is an awesome one. I have used many high end phones till now but this is the best phone i have ever had........

    So dont think guys, just go for it........

          Nokia N85, 02 Sep 2010Pity about the screen, only 256K colors with a 8mp cam? No good!The display is brilliant large and vivid ... the cam works as well as you can expect from a mobile phone.
          Watching Vids on this phone is a pleasure 256k colors
          are more then you need, if you put the display setteings down i garantee 4 hours of watching pleasure

                  My friend bought Galaxy S. We compared the audio quality via headphone and W995 was clearly the Winner ! Its equalizer is really advanced.

                    anonimus, 01 Sep 2010Is there anyone tried this phone with the Sony Ericsson Hea... moreIts only compatible with w900i i far as i know,i had trouble with some se connectors and went to market to get adapter..I just used my headfones in 3.5mm jack ,,yes the w995 had a 3.5mm jack..I sold w995 ages ago but it was a good fone..i watched 2 full fims on it called The reflecting pool and Death hospital and all was fine..

                    I argued last time on this forum about this only been a feature fone yet with opera and snaptu on w995 it did everything i wanted..I just wished it had VGA video record..If someone come up to me and said is s/e w995 a good fone i would say YES..

                    At moment using n86 and samsung wave but have tried 100"s fones over past years..Have still not found my best fone but the samsungs have concert setting which brings alive music to nightclub sound and thats stopping me buying anythimg else,,nothing can create that sound in everthing i have tried..

No good!Saes the man with the most borring mobile in the world.Well better Walkman 995 then a mobile with the same shittyass OS since her launch and full with cheap recycled plastic body.SE 995 proves that you don't need the shitty Symbian to have fun,and in terms on audio quality..don't even get me started...
                      Quality over quantity my friend.

                                  Is there anyone tried this phone with the Sony Ericsson Headset HPM-82?! The one with the volume control?!
                                  Coz' I tried already, but when I'm adjusting the volume +/- after 2 press, a message of "do you want to continue headset or speakerphone?" pops up, and the music stop. Its always like this, and it's irritating! Does this headsphone is compatible for this SE W995, or is there any configuration needed to do?! Please help?! Thanks in advance!!!
