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.

    • Motorola RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition

      Motorola RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition

      There's nothing technically wrong with RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition but if you want to Ferrari-fie your phone there are cheaper and better ways of doing it. For free.

    • Nokia N85

      Nokia N85

      It's hard to knock a phone that has all the current popular technologies, but it would have still been great for Nokia to consider new technologies for this latest N-Series range, particularly a media sharing networking protocol.

    • LG KF390

      LG KF390

      Take out the Next G reception and you end up with a low quality handset at a mid-range price point. Still, it's great to see another blue tick phone for our friends in the bush to consider.

    • Nokia E66

      Nokia E66

      While we like the E71 better, the E66 is a great smartphone with class leading features. If you want the functionality of a business phone without the bulk of a PDA form factor, the E66 is the phone you've been looking for.

    • Samsung i560

      Samsung i560

      Seeing or using the i560 is hardly a pulse-racing experience. People looking for a solid phone with navigation will find what they are looking for in the i560. Fashionistas should look elsewhere.
