Reviewed by matt on 07/08/2008good phone Rating: Reviewed by Hanner on 06/08/2008 I had a lot of problems with this phone at first. Flashing screen. I sent it back and they told me they had fixed it but it kept doing it, I couldnt be bothered sending it back so i just stuck with it. And it doesnt acctually happen anymore.. so ive no idea what was wring with it!! But overall this is the best phone ive ever had. It has a brilliant camera and lots of storage space. It also takes a brutal beating.. Bean thrown again walls. Down the stairs and.. its still working amazingly :) Buy iy Rating:  Reviewed by Arlene on 05/08/2008 The best phone for sure, can't say much more than that. Rating: Reviewed by karnell on 30/07/2008 i think this phone is excellent unfortunantly you cant buy iy now Rating: Reviewed by NEON on 22/07/2008 I LV DA SONY ERICSSON W810I I AV IT A ITZ GREAT Rating: Reviewed by lol95 on 21/07/2008 da best even 2day Rating: Reviewed by George B on 20/07/2008 This is an awesome phone. In the main review it states that it's upgradable to only 1gb which is not true .. I have a 4gb card and it's working like a charm. I download everything from simple music up to whole length movies! I used to think u can't manipulate any video however u can fast forward,pause etc. through the walkman button then pressing videos and playing it through there.. the camera features on it also are simply outstanding for a phone cam.! Rating: Reviewed by DJ DarkFlame on 19/07/2008 Great Phone!!! Rating: Reviewed by Heather on 19/07/2008 I just got the W810i yesterday for my birthday, and already I absolutely love it. The camera is outstanding, and gives out clear, sharp images. 2 megapixel - 10 times better than my last phone's camera - literally! The music player is excellent too, and i love how it organises your songs automatically into sub folders based on Artist then album. Makes it easy to find the songs we want to hear ^^ The radio is outstanding; i just plugged in the earphones and straight away i was connected to a clear radio reception with all the channels i wanted. ^^ The size and weight of the phone is great too; it has a comfortable and personal feel to it. The phone accelerates charging speed, which is great too. Connecting it to my PC was easy, i just had to plug in the pc connector and - to my joy - the PC recognised the phones' memory - and its memory card - as hard drives. So i could just browse its folders on my pc and drag and drop music and picture files into it, no software needed. Fantastic phone, 5 stars!

It lacks in looks, and holding 20 CDs is nothing. How can it be a better phone than others for playing music? It simply processes songs... no different from anything else. It has a small screen with a low DPI. There. Faults.

Rating: Reviewed by jamie on 02/07/2008 i have just come from a nokia 6300 that was an excellent phone until it broke, but this phone is an alright phone, its very easy to use, but very compact. but have got used to txting on the phone, since i send about 3 thousand a month, its gets its uses out of it lol but great phone, got qa good flash :D Rating: Reviewed by spacefone on 02/07/2008 This is a very good phone on average and would be recommended. It has very good features as the camera and the speaker which are both very good quality. The sound is also good during phone calls. The phone is also very strong and has a good battery life. However there a few drawbacks where w810i could do better: the walkman is not so great than we could expect it to be. It cuts the beginning of each song for a half second (which is very annoying!)and when listening with headphones, it feels like listening to radio with a very bad antenna. Regarding the camera, it is good but you have to know that there is no real flash but only a light that you have to activate manually and stays on all the time when taking pictures. By the way, the night mode is completely useless. Other inconvenients are that you only have one recurrent alarm and if you decide to set your personal sms alert, your ringtone is limited in time (only a few seconds). For the external part, the phone is big and quite heavy (which makes it solid as well). The screen is too small. In conclusion, I think that this phone is reliable and probably the best of it's range. However, some features are missing and the walkman features can be improved. Rating: Reviewed by siva kumar on 28/06/2008 the phone is very cute and good in performance so beautiful,lovely appearance and compact go for it Rating: Reviewed by ste on 28/06/2008 Ive had this phone nearlly 2 years now & ever since Ive owned if it had a slight knock it would loose power like the battery was being removed, also its recently started freezing and taking ages to load. But on the good side I have generally enjoyed owning this phone & id say its the best Ive had up to date as in regards to overall entertainment, Its now time for an upgrade though & Im currently in the process of upgrading to a nokia N95 8GB so hopefully I wont be dissapointed but seriously If you get the oportunity to buy one of these phones in working condition you will be getting a bargain (I paid £70 for mine second hand when I bought it nearlly 2 years ago so I wouldn't pay any more than £45/55 now for one) Rating: Reviewed by jess on 27/06/2008 my mum bought this fone and it really is good. the only problem with it is tht when your veiwing your pictures it takes agggggeees to load..music qualityis good aswell as the sound quality. its well worth gettin the headfones with the squidgy bits on the end aswell, there brilliant... Rating: Reviewed by shabana on 24/06/2008 it the most awesome phone ever the best from any i think its got everything a person could need from a phone why get others Rating: Reviewed by Sian on 24/06/2008 I've owned the w810i for a year and a half, and it has never let me down. I have previously owned the w800i, the 810i's predecessor, with much the same result. The w810i is built like a brick, that is to say, i've bounced it down many a pavement with no adverse effects. I've even dropped it in a puddle once with no longlasting damage. It's an all round good phone with all of the features expected from a moderately priced modern mobile. There is no joystick to break, as I have experienced in the past with other phones, and the texting facility can keep up with me. So far, I have been incredibly impressed with Sony Ericsson's performance, and will continue to purchase Sony Ericsson mobiles until this is no longer true.

But the flash let's the side down. However, the music player is brilliant, easy to navigate. And it can easily handle my 4GB card. The camera button had stopped working on it, so that has hurt it also. But the battery life is very good, even without going into flight mode. Very nice phone. Recommended. Rating: Reviewed by Tom on 31/05/2008 Bought this phone recently off a mate and I have to say it's quality even by todays standard! I have already tried several newer models like the w580i and w910i and although their styles are a little slimmer and modern, the w810i is great, more durable and is on par in terms of music quality. Even being two years older the camera is way way better. What's with all these dodgy phones at the moment with instability and crappy cameras? It's like SE have gone backwards! Instead of the faffing about all they have to do is create a slimmer version of this phone, update/improve a few things (like 3g) and it would kick ass!

Rating: Reviewed by awais on 24/05/2008 hi i have just got a w810i im realy happy with it but i dont no how to zoom on camera Rating: Reviewed by Kitty on 23/05/2008 I have two niggles with this phone... Firstly, I am unhappy with the Alarm Tone in the Sony Ericsson as it is too quiet. In comparison with Nokia phones I've had until this one, one cannot increase the volume. ARRGGGH!!! I have used my previous Nokia mobiles as alarm clocks, but I cannot use my Sony Ericsson in this way. Secondly, since my last phone was a Nokia 6630, the font used for the software is just too large. I prefer the smaller and finer fonts used in my previous phone. It is for these two reasons that I cannot give this phone 6 stars - only 5.

Not much else can beat this phone its great quality and its always lowering in orice i reccomend waiting a couple of weeks before purchase to see any drop in price.

Rating: Reviewed by Lee Doyle on 10/05/2008 Has to be the best phone ive ever had i usually change my phone each year but kept this one for 2 years i do building work all day dropped it many a time but does not affect it its robust!, the cameras good for what it is, walkman features great (if you get time to use it!),the light is so handy, texting is well easy, if your thinking of getting one do it its worth it. Rating: Reviewed by w810i on 08/05/2008 I got this phone a couple weeks ago and there isn't a thing about it I can fault and as far as I'm concerned its the best phone out right now. As for people saying the camera light flashes on and off - I have also noticed this but it only happens when the battery is low to save power and it comes on the second you take a photo so it isn't a problem even in a pitch black room. And as for the crackly sound - I have come accross this once - It only happens if its a sound say from a video and there's is a wide array of noises all going on at the same time and all needs be done is to turn the volume down by a bar or so and it is very nearly the same volume and the distortion disappears. Getting that crackly sound is a bit of a challenge really and I'm always playing music with alot of bass through the speakers with mates and we have no problems whatsoever as the sound quality on these phones is SUPERB and can go to a decent volume 'with no distortion' at all. Also the pi cture zoom on this phone is amazing and totally beats the brakes off d600's and all them. Say if you had to run and catch a train and you saw an interesting headline on a newspaper you desperately wanted to read you could simply take a quick shot of the page and read it later on the train by zooming in and in perfect quality. Zoom so good you could zoom right in on an individual letter and have it fill the screen with only slight blur. The gist of it is this phone RULES and the great programs like video dj and a kick ass MP3 player the fun never ends. You WILL NOT be disappointed - Get it! (People ought to stop giving phones poor ratings on the count of them getting a faulty handset or dropping them because they're thick) Rating: Reviewed by little chicken on 07/05/2008 software always problem and i think it's a suck phone....quality for long user very x3 bad Rating: Reviewed by idris on 07/05/2008 very good in mnmnkm Rating: Reviewed by hammad on 06/05/2008 very good best music phone eccsapialy the speacker system Rating: Reviewed by HASSAAN on 06/05/2008 w810i is the best phone i ever used now its memory can be expanded upto 4 gbs which is great it is a well proportioned phone Rating: Reviewed by Jomeg Dublin on 04/05/2008 The only fault I would find with my w810i is having to approve EVERY word used in a text message !.

Rating: Reviewed by sarah on 01/05/2008 its rubbish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! looking through pictures takes like hours. Rating: Reviewed by Harri on 28/04/2008 Having got this phone for Christmas, I was initially impressed by the design and features. However, by December 27th the camera had stopped working altogether (it went straight back to main menu and would not even open the cam option). It has been slow since I first got it, unable to keep up with the speed of my texting, or flitting through the menu/phone book. Every few days it cuts out and I've had regular problems with being unable to receive calls. Ultimately its been a huge disappointment: it's currently on it's 3rd visit to the 02 technicians (having broken AGAIN) and I'm looking to buy a new phone soon.

Features a very competent camera, brilliant speaker system (with Sony's excellent MegaBass), brilliant music player and lots of useful stuff. Easy to use, add themes, pictures music and other files. I've had the phone since October 07 and the only problems I've had are deteriorating reliability and non-functionality of the Walkman player (fixed with factory reset) and the free card being too strangled for my taste (coming from using 1gig Mp3 players, 2 gig cards are cheap at under £20.00 if you know where to buy (hint hint Amazon)). Rating: Reviewed by Brogan on 24/04/2008 I love this phone. It's the best phone i have ever had. I am at school and if i went around everybody and asked what phone they had, this would be the most popular phone. I see it everywhere! Mine is in the white colour. I just think it looks nicer. They're are only two faults with this phone; One. The squeaky keys. They are really annoying. Two. The funny buzzing noise on the music player when you try to play a song sometimes.

I think it should really be at the top competing with phones such as the Nokia N95. It has a fantastic camera, to me its more like a 3.2 megapixel, the speakers are banging. But my favourite part of the phone has to be the "mega bass" option in the walkman player. Once activated and used through earphones you will absolutely love it. THIS PHONE EVEN COMES WITH A FREE 512MB MEMORY CARD!! Trust me you will never ever regret purchasing this phone. I congratulate Sony Ericsson on making such an outstanding phone. It will just blow the Samsung D900 to bits.

Rating: Reviewed by gooner on 09/04/2008 class... all i can say Rating: Reviewed by Laila on 09/04/2008 I recently got an LG Chocolate which I love but found it so hard, so I decided to experiment this phone which I had recieved free because of buying a tele. Its so amazing. I had it for ten seconds and I already understand how to use it, it's so simpy and lovely. I could record thousands of videos and still have loads of memory left. One bad thing about it is that you don't have the choice of how long until it goes to standby, so mine goes after like ten seconds. I would recommend it to any teenagers, if you're looking for a phone that will keep you going for a long time without having to get another one, I would say this is the one to choose. Yet another fantastic phone Sony Ericsson have produced. :) Rating: Reviewed by Jamie-Lynn on 09/04/2008 Man, I hate this phone! When it came out, it was the phone I was dying for and it seemed everybody at my school had it, so I got it and within recieving it - it was good [I had just moved from a Nokia] but then it had bad signal and whenever I locked the keys they became unlocked and started sending messages to random people, using all my credit up. The Walkman was EXACTLY the same memory than the old phones and seemed the only thing worked on was the outside and not the inside. I soon moved onto an LG Chocolate though which I got off Carphone Warehouse, LG -- You cannot fault! Its a shame that Sony Ericsson didn't hit the the nail on the head this time. Rating: Reviewed by anonymous on 08/04/2008 my sister has this phone and and it looks amazing it has all the main features you could ask for such as walkman, camera etc but the only reason i don't have it is because there are new more upto date phones I think it would be the best phone of all time if they gave it a 3mp camera and the latest walkman version Rating: Reviewed by jagjit on 07/04/2008 i like the phone a lot. it has a lot of memory, good camera and lots of memory for music but the only bad thing is the fact that everyone has one nowadays and it is getting out of fasion. it can break very easily when you drop it and it is getting incredibly old. its very thick but not too big. it was good once upon a time but not anymore.

People I know have experienced the same.Now the top half of the keypad does not work- again this just happened overnight and there is no reason for it. Buttons 1-3, the select and the navigational dial don't work- rendering the phone useless as I'm unable to access the send/answer call functions, let alone dial numbers with digits 1-3.This now means I'm stuck with a contract I have to pay and can't use the phone.

If you're prone to dropping phones... or leaving them in the wash... or knocking them off ledges, into baths, sinks puddles.. whatever... this phone will do you the business without going for one of those rubber clad nokia monstrositys. I've had it a year and a half and its never faulted once. I throw it to a friend who drops it.. the screen might go blank... but in 2 seconds it sorts it self and comes back. It doesn't even loose the text you were i nthe middle of writing. This phone has fallen 3 stories off concrete with nothing worse than the back case popping off, which simply clips back in. Its been thrown out of a car at 40 odd miles an hour and i've picked it off the pavement and it'll still be playing the song i had on. Essentially its so compact that its functional... and indestructable. Its a stunning blend. Buy it... by 5... make a newtons cradle from em and just swap them when they finally erode away.

Rating: Reviewed by PJ on 13/03/2008 I have had this phone for 18 months and it's time to upgrade - But I cannot see anything today that offers everything this phone does - the w960i looks fab and if it had a navigation key I'd go for it. But touch screen? I dont think it's for me, one handed use when out walking is what I want to do. The keys are so well laid out you can operate everything the phone has to offer single handedly. Photos are brill, video is good, voice recorded is great. The 810i is amazingly great, it plays music brilliantly - so many useful features, and I've used them all. It's been dropped and has never once given me a problem. Like everyone says the k750 and joysticks generally do not lastm whereas the little silver nav disc on this phone works faultlessly. I've had many phones, this is by far the best - ever. Well done Sony Ericsson, when you bring out a w970i with nav keys I may go for one. Combines organiser, phone, camera, voice memo recorder, mp3 player in ONE amazing device. I have a 2GB card and am gonna try a 4Gb to see if it works. My Ipod broke and I shall never need a new one now!

Perfect for my every day business purposes and like the voice controls when paired with my Jabra headset. Have dropped on several occassions and still totally unmarked and in full working order. Pretty solid compared to my last phone. Would recommend as can now be picked up quite cheaply now. Only thing is slightly bulky compared to lot of current models, but still a quality phone...... Rating: Reviewed by German on 03/03/2008 Very good Rating: Reviewed by Francisco on 03/03/2008 The w810i has been one of the most reliable phones I've used. That in itself is enough to recommend it. Combine that with a camera (with light), e-mail, clear colour display, real tone sound, easy to manipulate selector (better than the old joystick), good battery life, etc and it makes an excellent phone. However, it is not without fault. The half-moon buttons to access the music player and the shortcuts menu are easy to press when you're trying to press something else. For Macs you need OS X 10.4.3 or above to sync with the phone (I'm on 10.3.9). Overall a very good phone but could be improved.
