Addressing
the ever growing needs of the millions of music
lovers, once again the Sony Ericsson has proved
its ability by introducing yet another music powerhouse
- the Sony Ericsson W850i. The new Sony Ericsson
W850i starts the next phase in the Walkman phone
revolution. As the eighth member of this successful
musical family, this handset sports a more advanced
Walkman player which provides enhanced experience
for the mobile music fan.
The Sony
Ericsson W850i Mobile is a Walkman-branded
phone in a slide design. Sony Ericsson are new
to sliders, but they have produced a very nice
design that slides nicely, has a nice keypad,
a 5-way scroll key, and a large screen. It's available
in a choice of black or white. Along with the
new direction, the W850i also presents a fresh
look, most notably the way the navigation pad
blends into the phone. W850i fully lives up to
expectations. There's plenty of room for storing
music with a 1GB Memory Stick PRO Duo supplied
as standard - this is enough for around 1,000
tracks.
W850i supports USB mass storage, which means that
files can be easily and quickly transferred with
a drag and drop operation (USB cable supplied).
You can also download music directly to your phone
with the Walkman software, and the 3G connection
makes this very fast.
The Sony
Ericsson W850i also introduces a new feature
called TrackID™. If you hear a song on the radio
that you don't know, you can use TrackID to find
the name, artist and album for you - impressive.
As a 3G phone the W850i is graced with two-way
video calling capabilities. It has a front-loaded
VGA camera, and strong built-in speakers.
The W850i is also graced with a rear two-megapixel
camera with 4x digital zoom and flash that shoots
photos in a maximum 1600x1200-pixel resolution.
There's also a video camera that you can use to
record or to make 3G video calls.
With a Memory Stick Pro Duo card slot, this phone
offers clear advantage for Sony
Ericsson W800/W810i users, who want to upgrade
to the 3G-model because they can use existing
Pro Duo cards, instead of having to invest in
a new.
