Sony Ericsson W810i Images  Editors' choice

By Jeremy Roche on 25/05/2006

More Sony Ericsson reviews , RRP: AU$899.00

The good:

  • Cute and compact form factor
  • 2-megapixel camera
  • Great sounding audio
  • Bundled with a 512MB memory card
  • Easy-to-use interface

The bad:

  • Grainy low-light photos
  • Software suite doesn't support Mac
  • Keypad will be too small for some

The bottomline:

An excellent phone with plenty of storage space for photos. The camera is above average for a mobile phone, as are the supplied headphones. While there is no need for W800i users to upgrade to this model, the W810i offers an impressive feature set for those considering the purchase.

    The Explain Series

    • Motorola MOTO U9

      Motorola MOTO U9

      Motorola's MOTO U9 would look the part sliding out of a tote bag in an inner city bar, but out of place on the boardroom table. The sleek, smooth finish houses a basic mobile with only a few common phone features.

    • LG KF510

      LG KF510

      The cheap and cheerful KF510 is a good-looking phone, but its interactive disco buttons don't make for a pleasant texting experience.

    • Samsung U900

      Samsung U900

      Samsung's official phone of the Olympic games may not look especially sporty, but HSDPA, lag-free performance, and its great 5-megapixel camera help get the U900 out of the blocks and over the line.

    • Nokia 6220 Classic

      Nokia 6220 Classic

      Playing on the brunette-stereotype, the Nokia 6220 Classic is a 3G smartphone that transcends its demure looks with pragmatic appeal, a stand-out 5MP camera and assisted-GPS.

    • LG KF600

      LG KF600

      Are two screens better than one? The KF600's morphing touch-navigation pad is a cool concept and adds a little high-end class to an otherwise low-spec handset.
