Sony Ericsson W850i Review

If you must have a phone with music playing abilities then Sony Ericsson’s range of Walkman handsets is likely to be at the top of your short list. It offers a wide range of such phones so it come as no surprise to see a slider enter the fray in the shape of the 3G, Tri-band W850i. I’m quite a fan of the slider format. Good examples are small in the hand and are well featured. The W850i meets the feature target well but it’s not all that petite.

..There’s plenty of choice right now in the music phone market, such as the Nokia 5300 XpressMusic and the very tiny Samsung SGH-X830, both of which have some good music control features. The W850i doesn’t beat either on size and sits midway between the two on battery life but it’s the only one that has 3G, which could swing it for some.
