This has got to be the worst phone I have ever had. Over the last year it has been returned for fixing about 6 times. All software related. No signal, even when I have a mast 100m away. Emergency calls only, screen freeze. screen flicks from walkman screen to main screen on its own. Doesn't recognise memory card, then decides it will recognise it. Caller can't hear me even though I can hear them. Stay clear unless you like sending it away

My wife bought me this phone last year. Disaster! Its memory is useless - my 6 month old could remember more numbers - and the camera leaves a lot to be desired. The photos come out sideways and any photos recieved from another phone are not set correctly. She bought it from our local exchange shop (as new) and I think they must have seen her coming. Stay away from this phone and exchange!!

I bought this phone about a year ago and honestly think i deserve some sort of reward for using it this long. When i bought it, it cost £59.99, and for the first couple of days i was under the impression that i had got a good deal. Okay the camera is shoddy at best, but that is not what i use my phone for so that never bothered me. Only 48 hours after buying the phone i discovered that the text messaging did not function as it should. When writing a text the phone would freeze repeatedly, this persists untill you take the abttery out and put it back in again. A day later though it will start to freeze again. It is not only texting that causes the phone to freeze, looking through photos, music and simply reading recieved text messages will cause the phone to freeze. As i said before i have had this phone for a year, and i've never enjoyed one aspect of it. Ordered the HTC HD Mini - just waiting for it to arrive, then the W395 will be burried in the garden along with my slinky that tangled to easy and pokemon snap... both equally disapointing!

Hate it. Found that it freezes ALOT especially when it's cold. It can never keep up with my texting so i end up waiting 5 minutes for it to catch up. The memory is awful and the camera isn't too great, not even for the price. The memory card is always cutting out so i have to take it out and blow on it in order for it to work again. Havn't had a problem with wobbling of the slide and the speaker isn't bad. Other than those two reasons, awful phone.

W395 as previous comments from this forum is more "no" to "yes". It is only have great speakers which is the only loud one, but however, all the featured inside the phone were poor, very low and slow. No edit pictures. Poor camera. I do think W800i is much far better. It is a nice handphone but overall, I cannot rate it high. Just to be honest.

-=( The Truth about W395 )=- MUST READ THIS REVIEW BEFORE YOU BUY Well, After reading all the ya-ya posted here, I'm pretty confused that one should buy this phone or not; there is so much contrast between different reviews. I appreciate the efforts of all the review writers, but in fact none of the reviews can be said a TRUE review, so here is a true review of W395. So, You'll agree that different phones have different features and one should by the one which matches his own requirements. After comparing with many other phones within the price range, W395 is the best phone I found matching my requirements. So here are my views about W395 . FEATURES : Sound Quality => It's just awesome with the Two Streo Speakers on the phone and it's a blast with the headset, after all its a Walkman phone. Every music lover should have one. (and, and its much better than Nokia 'Xpress Music' phones within the price range.) 2.0 MP camera => Good camera quality (much-more better than Nokia & Samsung phones with 2.0 MP camera,

I've had this phone for 3 months and it's the worst I've ever had. It's slow (especially when adding text to a picture message), constantly freezes up when playing music, outdated camera, has a very poor screen and the keyboard is dreadful. Texting from this phone is a hard task. A very dissapointing effort from Sony Ericsson. It's like they've had old phone components sitting around in their warehouse from at least 5 years ago and they've dumped it in the W395. Good for a budget phone? Unless it's very very cheap then absolutely not. I'd advise anybody considering the W395 to shop around as there has to be better at this price range. I've got the W995 arriving this week so goodbye and good riddance W395.

The Sony Ericsson W395 is exceptional. I currently have 200 tracks stored on mine with no freezing, in fact no problems at all. The camera might be average but I bought it for the music facility and I can't falt that. An earlier review claiming he could only put on 2 tracks probably says more about the reviewer than the phone. He clearly had no idea how to use it.

I think this phone is not good- but not bad. When i first dropped it, i picked it up and it had a huge scratch on the screen so the screen is weak, the menu is pretty slow like if you want to go anywhere for example your file manager you need to wait for about 4 seconds until it opens the actual page. Whenever i get a message on my phone it tends to freeze and i have to wait 5 for minutes until i can use it again. This gets annoying most of the times. If you are a buisiness person and people call you or you call people often i recommend you to buy another phone. On the other hand, when it doesnt get stuck it is a pretty good phone :)

i purchased this phone on the 27th of may from o2 on the 11th of june exactly 14 days later i switched it on to find that a large black spot was on the screen and nothing else? i took it back to my local o2 shop only to be told that i had damaged the screen, this i disputed as the phone was in mint condition and had only been used twice since purchase (i have two o2 orbits which i use - the sony w395 was to be used as a standby social phone )as a result i had to send the phone back to o2 for evalution and repair, and if the screen was indeed damaged the repair would be at my expence. might i add at this point that i never ever keep my phones in a pocket with any other object or with coins,indeed i use a soft sleeve to cover it and i never ever take off the screen protector. when i have evaluated the response of the o2 sales assistant i have concluded that we are all losers when returning a suspected fauty phone for all they have to say is that the phone has screen d amage and that lets them firmly off the hook. i write this review so that if this fault is inherent within the W395 any future buyer can add their comments alongside mine which can only assist any other purchaser in the future to further their claim that the telephone has a built in fault.

I just don't understand how this phone can be so slow when I don't use it for music, camera or anything other than basic calls and texting. A simple text takes about 5 times as long to write on this phone - it can't keep up with typing at a normal text speed and misses out words, crashes etc. I only buy cheapish phones because i only need something simple and usually keep them until they break. I've had this one about 4 months and im dying to get rid of the thing.

I`ve got one. Does every thing I want it to. On a £10 month contract. PERFECT. NEVER had a problem with MP3`s. You get what you pay for. I like mine! GOOD PHONE. I hope no-one ever knocks out the satellites. We would have to use land lines and TALK to each other!

Very cheaply made. Low on features. Definitely NOT an upgrade from my W610i. Don't buy it - save up for a better one

I've used this phone for about a year as a secondary phone... I've had no problems whatsoever. Granted, its supposed to be a music phone but I don't use it for this (but can't you people just buy a memory card?) and I don't really care for themes... a phone is a phone. Grow up people, you pay for what you get, and this phone is retailing at less than £50. Did you expect an all singing all dancing piece of diamond for £50? I've had no problems whatsoever with it freezing, but then my phone isn't packed with junk. Use your common sense people!

Mine came with built in 1 gb storage, i bought a 4gb card for 19 ¤ (altough it costs between 12 & 15 ¤ in other stores) Big deficits of this mobile are - no synchrnisation with myphoneexplorer - no updates possible - using java applications other than from sonyericsson is not possible - no notes function - sometimes (seldomly) it freezes) Pro: good Sound Quality stereo sound boxes nice design

Are you kidding me? Of all the phones I've owned, this is easily the best one. You must have had a bad model, because mine rarely freezes up and the menus are slick and fast. It's solidly built and feels much better made than any other slide phone I've held. The camera's good in daylight, not so great at night. And it accepts a 4GB micro sd card, something most phone's this price don't.

overall not a bad phone, i prefer the w550i as it was faster, you could have loads of themes, the camera was alright, but there was more apps, and could store loads more messages, but the w395 has slow menus, can store 50 msgs and only has 10kb of phone memory, not what i expected of a sony erriccson

Rubbish. I loved sony ericsson phones before, but this has made me change brand. Far too slow when texting. Kept freezing and I had to keep switching off and on. Not easy to hold in one hand and text. Then - it died, taking all my numbers with it ! Very frustrating! Would not recommend !
