Sony Ericsson W395 - User Reviews

  • The calendar feature is very confusing and unintuitive to use on the Sony Ericsson W395 (unlike many other feature phones)

  • Despite how much I don't like this phone, it is at least better than the Nokia 7100 Supernova.

  • Actually, it IS just a slide version of W302.

  • So I got another Sony Ericsson W395 and this time it's working, the flex cable is not broken.

  • I have a Sony Ericsson W395 with a weird flex but ok No, I'm actually being serious. The flex cable for the slider in my Sony Ericsson W395 is broken! I actually bought it like that in the phone shop.

  • I had that same problem too, but when I had my phone repaired for water damage (under warranty) I noticed that the technician upgraded the software, and the phone stopped making those 16 MB dump files, plus navigating the camera album became faster too, and I can now download large files like mp3's. But I doubt the software update is still available, because it's already 2016, and SE phases those old model software updates.

  • plz tell me the cord of that phone me want to use phone but phones want the cord before starts plz help

  • sold out???

  • No

  • I want this phone

  • when i send a game to my sony erricson w395 a letter appears 'fichier non pris en charge' help plz plz plz plz plz plz plz

  • is good

  • software failer in update center pls software install location

  • which another browser does sony ericsson w395 suports except openwave.

  • I still own one of these as a backup phone and let me tell you, it's great as a music player and even as a photo phone, but not so great as a video player and sending sms text messages.

  • I want this pohne

  • I HAVE SONY ERICSSON W395 CELLPHONE&its MEMORY card WAS ASESOM-it store 2m ,TILL ACCIDEENTLY MY SIBLING HIT IT, SO the MEMORY BECOME LAME and unable to store any pics or music , and every time I transfer sth it stop and view that there isn't enough space to copy any file also since that and since every thing have disappeared(deleted -after the hit)cuz I cant transfer just few things only with small size like three mp3 with small size I had to format and delete every thing and I did it twice and started again, is it because the hit or sth else.help please

  • Same here

  • My mobile display is not starting.However I love this phone.

  • why download long process?

  • this phone causes strip problem often. so buy without slide model..

  • the software is out ??? link please ??

  • After 2 years its software is out!

  • this is what I call the phone and art collaboration born to be great masterpiece of handset that sonyericsson ever made

  • The only thing that is good about this phone is its speakers. Other than that, everything else sucks. In fact, I don't even understand why SE produces this phone. They could have rethink its software.

  • 5-6 years? If u lie, lie well. This phone was released in 2009 and now is 2013.

  • i m using this hanset since last 5-6 years. its the worst one. never ever look for this hanset,processing is toooooooo slow,it hangs every 15 minutes,and u cant ever imagine about net and gaming,camera is not so good,its battery backup is very poor,even if someone offers u this hanset for 0 paisa,just dont even think to take this handset..,.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my 8000 rs wastes over this model.,! i m too much unsatisfied wid the sony ericsson,,!!! i want to giv suggestion to sony ericssion that if u cant giv the best then plz dont even giv the worst!!!!

  • Never ever buy this cell even if someones pays you to! The only thing good about this phone is it's speakers. Everything else sucks! Camera is ok-ok, but features are very poor. Poor organizer, you can't minmize games and applications. And no app larger than 1mb will work. Cell works too slow when you upgrade to 4gb memory card, plus low internal memory. And once this cell falls down, out of every 10 times 9 times the display will be gone. So you have to be extremely careful. I am very disappointed with Sony Ericsson after using this phone

  • I have sonyericsson w395 and in its memory card a file 'dump of 16MB..

Not me only..but a few of my friends who using teh same model with me, having the same problem. Can anyone tell me why this thing happen?

  • Had this phone and it lasted for just over a year before it started switching it self off at random intervals. Screen quality and resolution was terrible, case felt very light, cheap and plastic and predictive text was crushingly slow. Had a few Sony Ericsson phones before that were very high quality, perhaps this one is just the black sheep of the family? Avoid.

If u face such a problm then, 1st of all take a backup of ur fone-like reminders, contacts etc. N format ur fone memory. Switch off ur fone. Wait a while n switch on The OS reloads. Wait until it gets installd. N now try to install a .jar file game. Hope it helps.

More msg can't be stored:: ( max upto 60 msg's) Advantages: ----------- 1. Music is louder ( both in Headphone & load speaker)

  • This is not a mobile A brilliant walkman player

  • Can any one tell me the internet setting of Sony Ericsson W395 bcz when I called to cust care they were not able to give properly...........!!!!!!! I got one automatic seting from them but still i am not able to access my internt................!!!!!!!

  • Buy only if you want to listen to music, otherwise its a waste... Most software's won't work... low memory... Cannot hold much messages....

  • You cannot use this mob as a modem...

  • Hi throwa, It seems u hav problem with your camera. If you r clicking pictures, then do check its settings. May b u hav selectd on sepia, fluorescent, solar, blak n white image colour options by mistake. If u encounter such a thing then change it. If such a thing is happening while shooting video, then i guess then the fone has got some internal faults because u dont hav much option in video recording. Go in to the authorised Sony Ericsson service center. Probably the software might have been corrupted or the camera sensor might have got some problem. Mail me your feedback at- [email protected] I am receiving questions from people and i shall feel happy to help them. Chow

  • Good: music and modem Bad: battery back-up(2:30 hr talk time, 2days stand-by); no support for themes; only supports mp3-audio, 3gp-video; Worse: Hangs for a few minutes very frequently; Fills memory card with dump files when its crashed; Restarts frequently; You should restart it to get the signal once if you lost the signal. Totally the worst choice...!

  • The worst phone of sony ericsson , please never buy in your life, It make problem just after one year guarantee gets over.

  • this is not a good phone. dont buy this phone. this phone doesnt support modem connectivity and theme.

  • Hello evry1. Dis is Suraj here. I am using this fone for 2yrs n im typing this review in W395 itself! Im a music freak n i lov this fone very very much. There r many people like me who luv this fone as it offers awesome awesome music. Listen it through stereo loudspeakers or through headfones, i guarrantee who wont expect better than this! Well, some people think that dis fone is a crap. I just agree to it. But when i turn on the WALKMAN PLAYER, i just forget evrythng! I hav several issues with my fone. I hav used it very roughly that it has scratches etc n looks rubbish. Yet i love this fone. A music fone 4 lifetime. Ok. Let me solve some general issues. *does it support themes? .yes, some softwares of this model support it. But not all. My fone supportd it until i went 4 a change in software *screen freezing/whitening .Go 4 a change in software. May b the flex has got damagd. Keep ur M2 memory card virus free. *camera .Camera is ok. Gives good results in sufficient light. Zoom is only possible while capturing pics in VGA resolution. If u hav any problm on dis fone then contact me at [email protected]. I would feel happy to help.

  • Ya even i do accept dat the predessors of w395 were better in bass!! Ya even i had THE GENUINE WALKMAN EXPERIENCE on w700 and on w810i. But i must admit that the stereophonic effect is better and distinct in the w395. Though the walkman fones of today are not that powerful in bass as the older WALKMAN fones used to be, yet i can sure evry1 that u can listen music in it for hours without any pain in the years. And comparing the WALKMAN with any other mobile brand, i challenge that there is no doubt that the WALKMAN still rocks and rules! Other brand's music fones hav a long way to go in terms of music. WALMAN is truly in the zenith of mobile music. Jai ho Sony Ericsson WALKMAN!

  • Planing to buy this phone just having a though between w395 and zylo

  • Truly Superb and Awesome!!! Nokia has a long way to go ........

  • PROS: good sound / cheap / nice desing CONS: NO THEMES / cheap headphones for the reviews i expected the worst, but the phone works well, it doenst hangs or go slow, its sucks that you cant install extra themes, the rest its okay

  • Sorry, but if you've had the chance to use other walkman phones in the past, they would qualify as "genuine walkman experiences"...not this one. My old k800i is even better in audio and functionality than the w395. i know it's a mid priced phone, but so was the w200, but that was by far BETTER than the w395. As far as walkman phones go, the best was the first w800. it's so powerful that i can even use dj quality headphones on this one. the last best was the walkman 550 and 880i. the w395 doesn't hold a candle, much less and lighted match stick to its more powerful predecessors...

  • Superb fone frndz. No other nokia fone could match its music! N 5130 is a gud multimedia fone but cldnt match its music, trust me! I hav an xperience of 2yrs. Get d software updated if der is any problm! N superb music, nokia 5130 stands nowhere in terms of music beside our SonyEricsson WALKMAN 395!

  • If the box reads "genuine walkman experience", it should live to its claim. Unfortunately, it does not, on audio quality alone. I'm not expecting in terms of interfaces or functionality, but since it carries, the walkman trademark, it should pack a good sound. on the latter account alone, i'd go for my old k800i. It's not primarily a music phone, but it can't beat any of the present day walkmans. Sony and Ericsson should be about raising bars, just as before, but it seems that they're doing the opposite. Sorry...my next phone won't from them.

  • Friends pl don buy this phone...its a full waste...the display prob is here...

  • Get software updated for your phone from the service centre...it might help

  • very good but it hangs many times

  • Hi friends, I am using this phone for past one year. Its totally waste. There is no software update and this will not support pc suite. So do not buy this phone. I hate Sony ericsson. My friends and colleagues also gave worst feedback about sony erricsson.

  • And any1 who wants to go in 4d nokia 5130 or any other music fone, would surely give major importance to his music listening xperience, and W395 fulfils it completely. Nokia5130 has a set of poor earphones, even connecting it with d philips headset, that used to come in d package a few months back, didnt give a neck to neck competition wid d W395!! The fone has got superb slider n built quality which is really nice for rough-users like me :-P

  • Ya u may consider nokia 5130 as d winner for its gud battery backup. But in terms of a complete muzic fone package, its d WALKMAN! I know its battery backup is not as that of the 5130, but it has superb,awesome,mindblowing music as compared to any other phone belonging to nokia (including the X2)! Though X2 has stereo speakers yet its clarity,quality and most importantly, the stereophonic effect on its stereo speakers of W395 is better than that of the dual speakers of X2! REMEMBER-Im talking about the entire music package of the fone. And W395 Is d clear winner when compared to X2 or the 5130 (in terms of a complete MUSIC PACKAGE)

  • Ya. Really itz a superb fone. Any1 who wants to get a music player, should get dir fone instead!

  • can i install any music player ?

  • Get this phone if you are a true music lover !!! Truely awesome! Happily using it.

  • u cant access themes

  • even i hav the same problem.

  • try it using mass storage . u must get pc internet settings from ur subscriber. mail me at [email protected]

  • hey guys i am vijay . i am using this mobile only . it gives heavy sound with powerful effect . but , i installed many music players . it is not working . only cut songs are playing . but everyone likes slide model . this mobile has no software comparing to other sony erisson mobiles .

  • dont buy it mobile is dead slow

  • if i am bought from USA.is it madnetory to unlock it for use gprs?

  • If u want to compare with 5130 then 5130 will be winner for its great battry back-up.i had seen that u had compare to x2 .x2 has flash and 5mp with and it has qvga video recording and dual streo speakers.it is nokia , not other poor brands.

  • Hey buddy i know dat d fone is a crap! But look, i guarrentee ur X2's 5MP is no match to 2MP camera of W395! N MUSIC? Huh dont ask about it.....u know dat nokia's xpress music is no match to SonyEricsson's WALKMAN

  • Please dont go for either. If u want best of these phones the phone ti chiise is the CEDAR....U can read its user-opinions and see that 95% of people using it r too satisfied and happy with its performance.... Choice is yours!!!

  • hai plss any one help me to download themes from net all are unsupportebut has awsome sound clarity

  • No we cant apply themes for sure

  • crap phone i had it...didnt stop freezing...now ive got the nokia x2...couldnt be happier:)....so all of you wanting to buy this....THRUST ME...DONT!! it got stuck alt...i always had to stay restarting it....but then i cant deny that the sound and looks are quiet good...but elsewise...DONT BUY IT!! 'nuf said..:)

  • no one can beat w395 in terms of overall music or sound quality.... i've compared it to X2 and w395 had just ate the X2.... walkman vs. xpressmusic.... walkman will always be unrivaled.... overall functionality is average or below expectations but its fine to those who prefer music phone...

  • spiro is better than w395

  • It is the best phone for music and i think it is also cheap.

  • I have this phone for over a year. I find it great. Advantages: Good battery. Loud speakers. It is strong and endures. Someone said you cant install themes-its a lie, you can. Nice menu. Disadvantages: Small sms memory, you ll have to delete all messages every week or so. Although it takes good pictures, they dont appear good on the phone's screen. No flash- if there isnt strong light, the photos are totally bad. Very very very bad video quality. Very few preinstalled games. Summary: If you want a mobile that does its job, will last long, and is good for music, W395 is the one. Just dont rely on it for games, photos or video.

  • yes u can change keypad..if u want to change keypad than contract me ...mobil no-9990263472

  • sony ericsson spiro or w395. which phone is the best?

  • Best phone for Music !!!

  • I am using this phone.pls dont buy.only 70 msg capacity,cannot install themes,phone is too loading & get died usually [email protected]

  • Can i change its keypad

  • the best handphone with excellent sound system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • And ya its got a nice slider n brilliant display

  • And ya its got a nice slider n brilliant display

  • Well im using dis fone since it got launchd perhaps im writing dis review wid dis W395 itself!! So, As per d promises, its USP is crystal clear muzic on headphones n also on stereo speakers wid stereophonic effect! Great looks,awesome music,good camera in light,good gaming. But, Worst software,bad battery backup,fone hangs-up,sloppy internet which makes d fone feel like ignoring. Anyways-its a superb muzic fone. Sony Ericsson thumps!! Hope hrithik comes back 2 advertise Sony Ericsson again!

  • which version of pc suite connect d phone w395 to computer. I m not able to connect d phone to computer.

  • which version of pc suite connect d phone w395 to computer. I m not able to connect d phone to computer.

  • I agree D. Murugan, the OS is just too SLOW!!!!

  • How can i connect a connection which is free in my phone, which is W395, it is possible or not,,,,?

  • ADVANTAGES: Good sound quality..good camera quality only in sunlight. DISADVANTAGES : WORST BATTERY BACKUP, phone to pc sync not supported, hanging most of the time, few sms storage,worst OS,bad OS presentation, no good features, photo viewing problem, we cant do fast operation, other themes not supported.. phone application are not easy to handle.. OVERALL WORST. PUPPY SHAME TO SONY...... D.Murugan. From Egmore, Chennai.

  • This is better than F305 but PC connectivity and bluetooth is poor.

  • Try putting in another compatible battery and then charge it. Also, try putting your phone's battery in another compatible phone and then recharge that one. Should work. Best of Luck .......... !!!

Better not to speak about that... Speedy as a tortoise. You will through this thing when you open a folder containing pictures. Only thing in favour is the quality and quantity of sound. Crystal clear sound with good loudness... This is a mp3 not a phone... Better go for another one if you want a phone, If you are looking for a mp3 player, I hope this will do...

  • this s very good phone , misic quality is very good, good loud with stereo speakers, battery backup is almost 2 days.good looking , stylish handset not bad in our price.

  • I have all network bars showing yet phone shows no network, or emerg. calls only, if I get the vodafon signal it disapears again before I can do anything. Why? It also goes to standby in seconds, again before I can read, or do anything, even when I'm putting in a number or trying to text. Why? Its been back to the shop twice and they say there is nothing wrong its just the signal!!! Basicly the b*~+^)>> phone is useless. Why?

  • Music quality is good but battrey backup is not so good and its have no resulution

  • if ur a guy who needs the phone for everyday puposes this is nt an option...

  • im using this phone too..the stupid phone i ever used...

  • im using this phone for almost a year and i think that it's not bad after all.. .. (for me) .. its battery has a good quality .. my phone's battery can be used for 2days without charging it.. and it's cute and handy :)

  • Not that buddy. It's clearly for music. If in the same phone you want everything, who'll buy other models? And if you have too much of money and demand together, buy SE W995.

  • A very bad phone. Not even good for music, it's buggy there, too. They said it's targeting youth market. Well, it's gotta be very stupid youth. T10 was more functional than W395.

  • mentioned above all are correct.

  • Trust me this phone is dreadful!yes the speakers are good but thats about it, it is the slowest thing ever, to open the music folder takes about 2 minutes and then it normally freezes, way too slow to even view a small picture and the camera is rubbish even for a 2 megapixel, rather buy something else seriously, Ive had 2 and theyre both really bad

  • agree

  • U r right...

  • i buy sony ericson w395 at megaone in sm sta.rosa. i like but sadness the camera is not clear.wen you get pics the pics is compressed thats why in result the pics is not in good quality..and its so pangit.

  • it hang so much......its frustrating.....

  • You won't be able to connect to internet using W395. One of my friends had sent a mail to SE support center in India and got an official reply regarding this. You can directly e-mail them. Just don't forget to select the country name from the dropdown below and mention your e-mail id. Link is :

  • i brought new Sony ericsson w395 i was unable to connect to internet can any know how to do it what was the problem

  • Hi frds, its an nice phne.....my frd usng tis mble for almst 2yrs...no plm occured ever...only degrade is that there s no Mega bass in tis mdl...though Bass++ is enough over on mega bass...gud sound in speakers n in headset too...camera clarity s good...overall a trendy phe.....gud work Sony....

  • The music is not distorted even at full volume. And yes, it can play music whose bit rate is 128kbps and over. I have some songs at 320 and 256 kbps. It's playing fine enough.

  • You cannot save messages in memory card. Messages are saved in the phone and I think around 100 messages. It depends on the size of each message.

  • Sorry pal this handset doesn't support media transfer protocol so no pc suite...

  • You won't be able to connect to internet using W395. One of my friends had sent a mail to SE support center in India and got an official reply regarding this. You can directly e-mail them.

  • very very excellent phone user friendly mobile

  • it may look nice and yes, the sound quality is good. but other functions wasn't good. it stores only few sms and also the camera wasn't that good. i am using it for a year now and it was already repaired twice first because of the LCD and next the ribbon. i sold it already coz its a mess. if you have other choice, just don't consider this.

  • Can this sony company can help its costumer to get mig33 on their w395 set.......

  • Guys dont be fooled by this smooth talk this handset is crap its not as good as this guy explained...believe me i've used this handset for 4 months and it has given me endless problems in the end i sold it off...if you really want good se music phones buy the zylo, spiro w595 or in nokia you can go for 5130, x2 or x3 these phones hav very good sound quality...loud and clear... and plz do check their reviews...cheers...

  • Its a sagem alright...

  • It's in between Rs. 5800-6200 depending upon the shop.

  • I am not that much of an SMS person. So, I am not sure about the no. of messages that can be saved on memory card. But you can save at around 100 in the phone. Anyone using a huge no. of SMSes using W395 has any idea?

  • Hi Barun, thanks for the comment. How many messages can be saved in memory card slot? Person using the phone can give honest review.

  • I've been using this phone for the last 8 months. And despite its shortcomings, it's a beauty. I bought it purely for Music and I'm not disappointed. If you are looking for themes or extremly good camera it is not so good. And yes, it hangs sometimes - just free up the phone memory and frequency of hanging will be minimum. The dual speakers are awesome !!! I've also mentioned that for this price, it's not a bad choice. You'll not be able to find any other phone which has better speakers than this. Some people are opining that it's a China phone(made by SAGEM). They need to remember - 1. This is merely a speculation-no solid evidence! 2. In Asia, regardless of the brand, all phones are 'Made In China'. Nokia will not bring you phones from Finland if you are in Delhi/Karachi/Dhaka. 3. If SE has decided to name it as Sony Ericsson W395, then they have reasons behind this and it is a SE phone. Battery back up is reasonable enough. Takes 2 hours to get charged and stays for 2 days if used used moderately. The 2 MP camera is reasonably good enough though not suitable for night shooting. You can zoom in VGA mode. Signal and FM reception is also good. Net surfing is not that good. 3G would've done better. The price has become less drastically over the last 1 year. If you are looking for a good phone, buy it! It's far better than Nokia 5130 in terms of music. One fine morning if SE decides to pull it out from the market, then you might have to repent like many others did for Nokia 6233.

  • i wanna ask if there is some one buyed it and used ?? what is his opinion plz answer

  • How many messages can be saved in memory card? Please reply

  • It does nt support themes right. So is the preloaded theme good enough...?

  • hey guy's if anyone know how to use this phone as a modem please tell me

  • Internet not too slow ; not too fast either. Average.

  • my last question for this model.pls pls pls ans Anyone---- Its internet browsing slow or fast

  • I was also fooled by its cuteness too when I bought this phone..but after some time I regret buying it. :(((

  • If you call and text a lot, I don't recommend this phone...

  • this phone doesn't support themes :(((

  • yes..i do have this phone..and i just bought it 2-3 months ago and i used up my warranty already.it's still under repair..totally uncool...

  • How to install w395 themes,

  • Thanks for some positive opinions. What is the talktime and battery back up of this phone? I call and text a lot, want to know how this handset would be for me. Reply, all those who are using this handset. Thanks.

  • I bought it because I had a previous model of sony ericsson and backed up all my contacts on my memory stick, when i tried to restore my contacts to this phone... i was really dissapointed!! I can receive contacts via blue-tooth, but only one at a time!! VERY disappointing! :(

  • do u have it ? its really have many problems?

  • I think the phone would be really good except for.... ITS SLOW SLOW SLOW!!!!!! Can't even type a message without getting a headache, or browse through your stuff like videos without growing old!! The memory is not very good either, its annoying having to clean up the messages very often.

  • If u want to bash SE for the sake of Nokia or Samsung, then it's ok. But on normal scenario, it's a very good phone as far as music is concerned . Those who are saying Nokia5130 is a better music phone, go for an audibility test! It's good enough for it's price range. of course, everything has it's pros and cons. The PC connectivity is not good at all - as modem. It doesn't support Theme and it hangs some time. Still as most 'TRUE & NON-FAKE' users will agree, this is a very good phone for Music Lovers. And the 2 MP camera - view the photoes taken in natural light in PC or have a print-out and comapre them with Samsung and Nokia's, you'll get to know how 'TRUE' are the people who say Samsung and Nokia's 2MP cameras are better. Keep the phone memory free as much as you can and it will function like a dream - even if you use 4GB of memory. Buy it, you won't repent. Don't go by voting result. It's a much better phone than that. If you still have a doubt, find anyone who's using one. And anyone using a SE(any model) is a head-turner for sure !!!

  • it automatically goes to the next song..

  • ..the camera of this phone sucks big time,it's not even clear..and it can only hold 10msgs..and it hangs all of the time..

  • Get the drivers from here and try..

  • Pls Pls any great person reply my ans.when the song end then autometacally go for the next song or i have to work with buttons to play the next song

  • its a nice mobile and i have been using it from 6 months,but it is a slow piece and hangs frequently.But it has excellent music player which offers good Bass,and output through speakers is nice.It has Bass which is better than W850i,when ear buds are used,or else u cant distinguish.

  • thanks for the information.. now i'm more confident to buy this phone soon.. not as my first-use phone, but only my second-use phone.. so the problems will not effect at all.. love its cuteness:)

  • What about the official review from gsmarena.com? Coz there are a lot of confusion over this phone. The best judging source will be the official review.......asap.

  • So, anybody not savvy enough to solve internet connectivity(via modem)? Not even the so-called geeks? Quite disappointing!!!!!

  • is se w395 supports flash menes?

  • tanx bro... at first i was so sad bcoz the phone tat i wanna buy got so much of prob.. then wen i saw yr comment i was so happy and i have the confident 2 buy the phone... thanx bro...

  • Can anyone tell why I'm not able to connect it as a modem? I've tried all ts steps. Windows XP SP 2 is not at all recognizing it as phone mode though as Mass Storage Mediu, it can. I have installed SE PC Suite latest version. I have gone to Device Manager and followed the necessary steps. I've seen many other people is having this same problem too.

  • why this handphone can't support any theme??

  • How many messages can be saved in memory card? Talktime and battery back up of this handset.

  • it's somehow cool but if it cud have more features than it be super,i like the walkman music player,and the double speakers,super

  • i dont know why others say that this phone is not good. well, not good for those who are looking for perfect phone. go and buy other models or brands that meets your expectations. cause for me, this phone isn't so bad. since music is more important to me. it can play loud music. battery life, not so bad. not unless you keep calling every minute.=p up for this cute little phone!

  • i think this item is not too bad. walkman is good, good sounds quality! good for playing music! though themes cannot be installed, i'm contented with my hello kitty theme..=) not so bad. cause i hv this rare hello kitty limited edition..soooo cute!!! love it!!!^___^

  • I have installed SE PC suite v4.0 and v6.0. Whenever I am connecting my W395 via USB(2.0) in my PC(I have Windows XP SP 2 as OS),it is not getting recognized as either phone or modem. I have tried in different USB ports, restarted the phone and pc,have selected phone mode while connecting, have reinstalled Motherboard(DG 41WV and Quad core Q8300 2.5 Ghz.) drivers.How do I connect to internet via dial-up connection using W395 as modem? I need it very urgently.Any help will be appreciated.

  • look is very good.............. but 1]No Support For Theme 2]No Support For Internet Connection With Computer 3]Only 100 sms can be stored in Inbox (very poor) 4]No Support to Jump to the song number as it is available in oter sony err mobiles

  • low message memory ,the bigest disadvantage of this ph.

  • What is the sms capacity of the phone, battery backup and talktime of this phone? Please be genuine

  • the only resaon i brought this phone is because it is very loud the rest of the phone i do not like

  • the first charging is very important to determine battery life..turn off your phone and charge it for 3.5 hours for the first charging..

  • worst phone i have ever seen on earth.. worst to the core..

  • can not supported themes

  • this phone is so weak!!!they said the battery life of this phone can last for two days but i recharging it everyday!!

  • nitro speed racing guitar hero and sudoku.

  • Imagine being dragged naked across a fifty mile stretch of tobasco soaked shards of glass...nope, not even that compares to the horrificness of this dreadful blizzard of misery. first it all it claims to be a media phone, hmmm....theres no standard headphone jack so your forced to use SE's dreadful one which break in ten seconds, halve of the media files out there are'nt recognised, most of the supported MP3's dont work, it freezes halve way through a song, it resets the equalizer constantly so everytime you play the next song you have to go into a menu then into 6 further sub menus just to make your song sound anygood and worst of all it said that 'the beatles - please please me' was from the year 1932 and was rap...eurgh, the list continues. the camera is'nt bad but try to actually take any pictures and well, your stumped, as the measly 1gb of supllied memory will be full of failed attempts of copied songs and tons of systems files. try to delte them? you cant as it freezes everytime you open the media folder. buy a new memory stick? you can't, it freezes completely if you try use anything that did'nt come with it... ARGHH!!! Video viewing is atrocious, file navigation is impossible, compatible 3rd party software/apps are non existent, contacts are deleted everytime phoneis switched off, battery life is barely 12 hours, the so called 'scratch resistent screen is now full of scratches...the list of the bad goes on. saying that, texting is simple and effective, calling/recieving is nice enough and the UI is good looking and user friendly. but the positive ends there. I really wan'ted to like this phone, its very good looking, slim and feels nice solid in your hand but the list of problems is too much I should have to cope with seen as I spent my hard earned cah on it...sorry SE, better luck next time.

  • when i play the vedio songs, it is very slow other phones, it is take time. there are no option to send the two or more sms in one time.

  • can some one tell why does this phone could not support seversl files?

  • does anyone know which games this phone comes with? is gauntlet one of them by any chance?

  • plzz dont go for it.. it hangs very frequently. very few messages can be stored in inbox.. for muzic if u wanna buy the phone den buy a ipod. i am regretting by taking this phone.. can any one tell me if i send this to sony work shop will they repair it or replace the piece???

  • i have only one thing too say about this phone and it is simple....serious flex cable issues...the flex cable isnt that strong and does not last for very long for the most 6-8 months

  • thanks ur post it will help .im going buy this ... se is boss 4 its camera.... and music. ;>

  • explaion theprise

  • Camera is really good quite contrary to common perceptions. I have had print-outs from the phone directly (6 inch by 4 inch) and it's quite better than low-end SLR cameras. You don't want a digital camera like features from a Walkman series phone, isn't it? Sound,styling has been much talked about so no need to elaborate. Battery too isn't that much bad (believe me, I have listened in the pre-loaded walkman mode in full volume via external loud-speakers and it lasted for more than 2.5 hr.s). If you like more juice in battery, then better not buy a walkman phone with two awesome speakers ..... Nokia 1650 will be fine enough for you !

  • CONS: 1. No themes support. 2. It hangs all the time. 3. Limited inbox for messages(new message and sent). 4. When connected to PC sometimes it is not detected. PROS: 1. Excellent Music/sound quality 2. Excellent Battery life 2-3 days.

  • the latest price of this brand new phone is now Rs. 5100 - 5350.. however I am still not gonna buy this coz of the low batt life and also no support to additional themes or games etc...

  • Before any 1 buys this phone please note that this phone does not supports theme. Its music quality is great and it cant be compared with any other phone or brand. Buy this phone if you want a very high loud speaker and hands free pound

  • im really disappointed with this phone. it is so basic. the sound sometimes dont function well. its a music phone but it only has short recording, 30 seconds. motion game support is fake, i cant feel its motion-ness. too many message prompts with regards to internet settings and others. no zoom on images. so sorting too. no pc suite support. left and right selection key cannot be changed. no theme support. i wish i had bought nokia 5130 instead of this phone. sorry for the bad response.

  • Hi Amit, The answer to your question (Can i use internet through my computer with w395?) is a resounding "YES", provided you configure your phone modem properly. I'll tell you how to this for >> ANY PHONE MODEM devmgmt.msc) Under 'Advanced' tab in the phone modem properties, Enter this Initialization command : AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","" Just don't copy & paste it, See carefully, You have to first replace your internet service providers access point (GPRS APN). You can find it in your phone's GPRS configuration settings or you can ask the customer care support of your ISP or alternatively, you can download a list of popular GPRS APNs worldwide, Click to dOwnload the list . Example "airtelgprs.com" for airtlel (India) and the command will be AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","airtelgprs.com­" Note : All phone modems doesn't support all commands, but this is the one which worked on most phone modems. Once you've configured your phone modem, the only thing you have to do is to create a dial-up connection using the phone modem. This is very simple, even for newbies. Open Network connections in windows control panel and select 'create new connection' from file menu. When asked, select 'set up my connection manually'. You can give an ISP Name or you can leave it blank when asked. The most important thing while creating a dial-up connection is the dial-up phone number. First try using *99# or *99***2# (it works for most GSM based ISPs in India) and then, if it doesn't work, ask your ISP for their dial-up phone number. Rest entries hardly make any difference (even user name and password are not specific in most cases). Add a shortcut to this connection on your desktop and use it to CONNECT TO THE INTERNET. Note : Besides these things, internet uses are only recommended with a data-plan subscribed (internet subscription), otherwise it may not turn out to be 'economic' for you. Well, One last word, this is not the best place to write a tutorial on 'How to connect to the internet with a phone modem'. We are supposed to share our opinions about a phone here. Nobody will appreciate a communication on modems, internet and 'HOW TOs' here. Therefore I have kept this post compact but still providing sufficient information for an experienced user. If you are facing any trouble regarding this Q&A, tell me, cause I'll be glad to help you. If you guys need and suggest, We can start a discussion on this topic on any popular discussion website. PS : If you want to use your phone as a usb modem then always connect it in 'Phone Mode'. On your phone select Menu->Settings->Connectivity->USB and select 'phone mode'. Also if you want to get rid of hitting dial button, every time you connect, then open your dial-up connection properties and under 'Options' tab uncheck 'prompt for name and password...' and 'prompt for phone number'. That's it.

  • My 1st priority was for music,well iam satisfied in that.But all of its other functionalities are worse. Software is too bad so that it is very slow and frequently getting stucked.

No phone-conversation recording 6. sound recording only for 30 seconds!!!!! 7. No zooming of images possible 8. Battery life 1 day 9. No shorcuts button of SE 9. No 'notes' option in organiser 10.No support of text files crap or what?

  • hi this is naresh i am using sony w395 evrithing is fine but batteryback up for only one day ...........

  • hello vikash sorolia hope everyting is going well with you.i read you comment abuot w395.well would pls give me your opnion that can i use internet through my computer with w395.awaitng 4 your reply

  • BATTERY IS standerd for only for 1 day

  • W395 phone software was very slow its not working properly . phone was use only music play, camera is good quality . compare W395 to other mobiles its very bad . One important mater this phone was not supported Sony Ericsson pc sute . another disadvantage was the phone themes are not available . I don't know why Sony Ericsson this type of phone launched. I think Sony Ericsson is good for mobile . but now i change my opinion after buy this W395

  • -=( 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, especially in insignificant light, it's very vivid than Nokia 2.0 MP phones) however it's lacking flash light, but it can be ignored due to it's vividness in the night mode. It's auto-adjust feature just works great. Looks => Just one word... 'WOW', it's almost a slim handset even if it is a SLIDER. Deserves ***** (5 stars) for this. I think i didn't need to mention it here, probably everyone will love its looks. Java Support => Java applications (176x220) are supported on W395 and people complaining about the problems (with opera mini and all that...), Listen Dude, this phone doesn't have any problem, running any compatible java application. Those, who complains, don't know how to find the compatible and correct version; it doesn't implies that there is some problem with the phone and, in fact, MOST JAVA APPLICATIONS (176X220) WORKS ABSOLUTELY FINE ON W395. They, I mean the manufacturer, also claim MOTION GAMING on the phone, but due to some reason, it doesn't work on mine (probably because i dropped it down a few times, not sure that it ever had a motion sensor). One of the preloaded games, 'NitroStreet Racing' is a motion sensor game with 'Gesturetek' controls and many more motion sensor games are available on the internet. Music Player => It's a Walkman phone guys, The built-in Walkman Player is amazing, with one touch key on the phone-front and volume keys on the right-side. The best thing i liked in this player is the manageable queue of the songs. Video Player is also fine but i don't like watching videos on the phone, so i cannot say MUCH ;-) about video player. WEB => W395 employs OpenWave Web Browser, it's OK, but I am more used to use browsers like UC Browser; the fastest among all and it also have video streaming function, it's -> BOLT Browser Simple and friendly, classic style of Menus. FM Radio => it's OK DRAWBACKS : 3G not supported; preloaded themes only, no support for user themes; takes some time in application installation; Short keys on the numeric keypad, only suitable for people with thin fingers; lack of flashlight with camera; and... Everything Else Is Satisfactory. Mistaken Issues : Some people say their phone freezes. Well, then may be your phone is not faulty, it's either due to your style of operating the phone, or, due to the most common reason -> LOW FREE SPACE ON THE PHONE MEMORY. Yes, it's the naturally the most common reason for slowing down phones. W395 comes with 15 MB of phone memory, keep it as free as you can by storing your files on the memory card, and you'll enjoy a really fast phone. The low free space on the phone memory, as I've found so far, is the most common 'De-accelerator' for any phone manufactured by any company, So keep it free. I Hope Information Provided Above is helpful. Now it's up to you that you should buy this phone or not.

  • i like the color (dusky grey)

  • It hangs a lot, gives network problem and battery too doesnt lasts for long. Moreover, within six months of purchase the phone speaker in my phone went out of order and needs to be replaced now. The phone comes with a host of problems, buy it at your own risk.

When I first bought it, it had low battery, but when I asked the shop, they said I have to charge it for 1 hour for the first use, so that's what I did, did you guys do that too?

  • good phone low battry bad cam good sound,,any body like music buy it ,,dont like,dont buy

  • External sound is really good .. it could've been at least 15-20% louder. Any one of either flash or 3G would come in handy. GPRS is not that good. Battery back-up for a dual-speaker phone like W395 also could've been better. Would like to rate it 7.5 out of 10.

  • y did dey exaggerate so much about d battery backup????imaggine a music phone with a battery backup of 1.5 hours........dat peice of shit is sony ericsson w395!

  • Do not buy this phone . 1) No SE PC Suite support for this phone. 2) Battery backup very low . 3) Frequent hangs and crash . 4) SMS storage very low . 5) No way to know from which number the caller called if we store more than one number for a contact. 6) Annoying to call a contact who have more than one contact. 7) Bad Keypad 8) No theme support. some good part 1) Superb sound with those dual speakers. 2) Thumbnail video play in file manager 3) Set video file as ringtone. 4) smooth slide and very compact Thats all .. my previous phone was a K750i.

  • Hi there, well the feedback here for this phone is a score 8 out of 10, i didnt overload it,,its used mainly to play songs, i like the speaker sound quality also the earphone sound quality,,camera quality is actually good in day time,,,except that the screen is small and picture looks dark,,send the same pic to pc and view,,quality is good..it takes almost 480kb to 500kb per picture on high settings,,u need to be steady still, while clicking the pics.....drawbacks -- battery standby reduces when music is played on speakers,,,and can average to just one and a half day on high usage by just playing music..overall a basic good phone with some features

  • same here...............it takes a second !!!!! i m not sattisfied.bt the sound rocksssssssss

  • dis is nt at all a bad phon.. i feel privileged to own dis phon.. great sound quality, camera nd processing speed..

  • This is the worst Sony Ericsson phone ever (exept for the soundquality) the procesunit is as slow as a snail, the menu sucks, most of the usual software does not excist on this phone or is a few (years) steps backward, the camera is even worser then the first camera ever made and it will not connect with any bluetooth headset except for the little cheap one that keeps falling out of your ear. This is serious a no go phone, please dont buy this phone save your money for a better one

  • It's operating system is too much slow, this think realy painfull for me. Sound qualiti great and picture quality is verry good.Overall it's not too bad choise!!!!

A fewe have gone onto the Walkman - the rest have gone in a Folder in the music option - I havent been able to transfer across because it wont allow me to play music from there... I have also tried putting the list of songs into a single folder to tidy it up - but after 2 or 3 songs it says the folder is full. Its starting to really annoy me! Can someone help please?

  • Nope! I have used almost all Sony Ericsson models including those latest line-ups like Satio, Vivaz, X2 ; eg. I was using my friend's W395 (DUSKY GREY) for about 2 weeks. We exchange fon s.times. He also has access to all the Sony Ericsson models. So, while using i discovered all those 'ups' and 'down' of this phone that I hv mentioned. To me regardless how powerful the phone is, it will only stand out to me maybe for longest 1 week, after that I will get bored!

  • games,softwares,applications can be found plenty in mobile9.com.this phone supports all softwares,games etc... but it does not support themes

  • this phone is really no good ,,on the first day i use it its already broken.it was hanging,,and i need to turn it off and open again and the battery and sound are not as good as the phone i use before,and can't find my model on the sony ericson site?why?

  • by the way do you have this fone?

  • i bought this fone just today... i bought it php 5,990.00 i was about to buy cybershot phone but i see it cute and simply addorable.. i have tested the camera and i can see it myself that theres a small boxes around my face when i took a picture, at first i was like "oh my God, i want to take it back to the store",but later i realized that it's fine..but my bestfriend told me i should buy the smile shutter one..i reger but now it's fine.

No software updates 5. No zooming of images 6. Sound recording only for 30 seconds !!!!!!!! 7. No phone call recording 8. Inbox capacity 50 sms maximum! 9. Battery strives to reach the day's end 10. No Notes in organiser These are BASIC features and come with phones of half the price! This has many more defects including too slow browsing. Only the looks and music is good

  • it is a perfect cell

  • right to be perfectly honest i have this phone now and i can't wait to get rid of it. It has problems switching itself off, freezing, can't pick up signal whenever i am in a full network area roll on next month till i get my new blackberry 8520 :D

  • what on the earth is wrong with this mobile,you people dont know how to use it.do you want aino or satio for this range.downloads can be done,i think your mobile doesnt have currency.

  • Hi Kiranjeet 100 people will say 1oo things but dont worry about that you make your choice, i say this is good phone.

  • i asked for this phone in two outlets and found that they have the same damn fiesta black colour which pretty much sucks when compared to titanium blush....this shows poor make...

  • very slow phone...the charge capacity sux to the core....ok camera...overall it's a bad performance phone but an awesome music phone..

  • hi this phone is stupid phone no themes , no camera qulity plz give me w395 themes plz plz plz reply fast....

  • hi i have theme problem thm file is not working how can i download w395 themes plz give me reply fast....

  • sound & music player qualitys are very very nice. speed too low. more times the mobile hang & switch off. camera is better.

  • Hi Kiran, if u ask me personally i would definitely recommend u 2 get it if u dun mind about the camera. The other compartments r fantastic especially the music quality & the design. The system is very user friendly. The basics are there. As i have mentioned earlier, i dunno y there 2 many complaints bout this fon. If u seriously 1 this fon, then buy it frm authorized dealers. I believe those who complain din buy frm authorized dealers & instead got it for lower prices.

  • Hello Sir, I just want to know about this set because i read so many complaints about this one.Should I buy this one or not? Please fast reply

  • Mine doesn't hang like many say, the music player is great, the design and durability is great, never had any problems with it. the camera should and could be better.But For someone who just needs a simple phone for calling texting and music it's a great choice, it all depends what you expect from a phone.

  • Hi there. The photo-fix built in this phone is too basic. The photo-fix alteration is done automatically. V won't be able to edit further b-cos there won't be any options available. I tried using Microsoft Office Picture Manager & the final editing satisfied me....Just give a try bt i would highly recommend u to use PC applications to edit.

  • This phone Gr8 for music lovers, for more features go for w595

  • aaaa the net work of this phone never work now now is like im using a toy phone ............ very boring

  • my god...for me this is the lamest of the sony ericson line up...its camera is very BAD...music player is fine but not that fantastic..i thought this is a Walkman fone...and its memory...wen i used a 1gb memcard i runs fine, wen i replace it wit a 2GB it slows down...and i tried using a 4GB,hell yah...it took me 3mins to open just 1 folder of my pictures...if i wer to rate this fone..i woud give it the lowest rating...this fone is just a wastee of money and time...thank u..

  • hi 395fan! why didn't i thought of that! editing on photoshop! but have you tried doing it? i dont have the phone yet but is there photofix in it? does it do the trick? its a pity they dont have firmware for this nice looking phone. anyway, thanks 395!!

  • man this is very very very gooooood phone..............

  • A bad cel....no speed, no memory for msg storage, flop display aft u click images from cam, no motion sensor games, though good for sound...its awsum through headphone and with its dual speakers as well......but still.... would give it a 2 out 5!

  • shit signal keeps going down,no good to me!!

  • Hi there. Well that condition is normal on this fon.The simplest way 2 fix that prob would be 2 use the photo fix application frm d fon. If u dun feel satisfied, then undo, transfer d pic to a pc, then use commercial software's to modify d pics. The only drawback that i found frm W395 is the camera quality. U shouldn't expect much frm the camera b-cos & it lacks auto-focus. Right nw, there are no any firmware updates 2 fix the prob, but u cn e-mail 2 s.eric's official customer service centre. If 2 many similar complaints are registered there, then they might fix the prob.

  • I seriously wander y many complain that their W395 hangs & suffers with many other problems. Mine is working perfectly. I wouldn't say the system is running very fast but its just nice. Maybe they wouldn't hv buy frm a authorized dealer. All in all, i'm truly satisfied with the performance of this cute slider. Its definitely worth 4 its price.

  • The phone don"t work GOOD at all.... i have one, i just bought one an it"s not working good, everytime it makes a loud noise like if it"s going to blow!!!! "I HATE IT"!

  • I want to a Pcsuit for my Sony Ericsson W395.

  • hi there 395fan! i'm an SE fan all along. been using w995 & c901 right now.my son's upgrading he's phone so he's giving me his w395(still under warranty)i've noticed that when d pics you have taken are transferred to another folder, they become pixellated(resolution).is this normal on this phone? are there firmware available for this phone? can you recommend any solution for this prob? you see i like this phone. its simlicity strucks me. waiting for your reply! tnx!!

  • very nice mobile. i like this configraton and price..

  • hey alll m planning to take dis w395 bt u all say it hangs a lot dden is it really true...??? dat it hangs a lot

  • I have one it's great u can put music on it u have bluetooth and yeah don't know what some of u are complaining about

  • Nice phone for Muzik lovers ' the eq feature ROcK's other features are not that gr8 so in terms of money not stisfying for rs.6000 "i think rs.4000-5000 would been better in this competetive atmosphere

  • i like this phone i will get one

  • never ever purchase this set......nn of other themes you can use n no software yon can install like yahoo or skype

  • is it so worse aditya??

  • 3GP & MP4. 3GP is highly recommended although MP4 is supported.

  • 1.battery backup is very less 2.different format from other sony phones 3.always hangs 4.clarity is worst just notice these things before you buy....

  • looking nice but battery backup is very less

  • which video formats suports

  • Hi everyone, pls make yourselves clear that W395 doesn't support any 3rd party themes.U cn only play around wit the 5 built-in ones. This model is a little different frm others in Sony Ericsson b-cos it runs on OpenSSL platform & other models run on S.Eric's standard platform. Certain models like F305, S302 ;eg shares similar system characteristics with W395. For those interested 2 know more bout this model, kindly leave yr query here & i will reply ASAP!

  • good luking, loving, but msg memory is worst.....i suggest no for this.

  • Do any one know which format themes acceptable for w395?

  • i like this fhone..

  • sony ericsson w395 original made in??

  • I think sony ericson w395 is not that bad as i readso many comments from the user.i've just bought this model and the sound quality is fantastic.the others function such as the camera and the inbox messages not relly good but for me it'sok for those who just need to call or enjoying loud music..the design looks great...i dont care bout the other things..

  • yea...it hangs a lot...gets slow....u have to switch it off and then put it on again so that it starts working fast..but gets slow again in a day or two! Sound is awsome! cheers!

  • someone plez tell me how to download theme?

  • hello fellow user, since nothing seems to be playable on this phone, you may download "dvd videosoft free studio manager" for you to convert videos so they would be playable to your w395. i believe the compatible option, when you have already downloaded it, would be "free video to ipod and psp converter".

  • YEAAAA it hangs alottttt.... plz dont buy this !!! am a victim of this mobll

  • HANGS ALWAYS.....worst phone...bought for 6000 rs and gave for 3000 within one month... total waste...only music is gud....all other things are waste

  • hi alexis, to change lettering, click on messaging,then click on write new message, click again on txt message, then go to options and scroll down to txt format and click on that. in there is txt size, small medium or large, choose from that ok, if u click on txt style choose option regular. hope this helps.

  • n0w im using G700,buT i wanna change it with w395. . .do u think it is go0d?

  • Actually, this model runs on OpenSSL Platform(which is an open source platform).It was was fully customized since this is a mid-range model. Many people are mistaken that its made by SAGEM. That's why it's interface is a little different than many other sony ericsson models because they run on standard SE platform. If u are going 2 use it for basic usage, then sure it will perform very well.

  • Hey chill....1st make sure the format is either MP3/AAC, then send it. If other format like WMA for example & if u really want the song, then use any converter software on yr computer, convert to MP3(MAKE SURE THE BITRATE VALUE IS NOT TOO HIGH>>it may crack yr speaker), then continue sending....If you don't have the converter, go to sites like download.com/softpedia.com & try to look for the best software because there are plenty of them!! W395's music quality is truly awesome, trust me & chill!!

  • i bought this phone but if someone sent me a song the phone give me a msg unseported media folder.....this means my phone wont take songs so i have a walkman phone but i cant listen to music wtf can some one help me with this problem

  • god....! i cant store many msgs in my w395.. i stord as many as 700 msgs in my old zn200...!i feel vry disappointd fr dis..! can ne1 help me out to xpand d msg storage????

  • Infact, the saved messages folder only represents the messages saved in simcard. In this phone, there is no seperate folder for that, it will be stored in the same INBOX, saved in sim memory. If you select phone memory it will be among Drafts. So if you had chosen sim, search in the inbox; and if phone, search in Drafts.

  • I clicked save message on a message my mum sent me I needed to keep, it dissapeared like it used to on my old phone, but I can't find the saved messages folder. how do i retrieve saved messages? can anyone help me please.

  • To make the incoming ringing silent, press up/down navigation key or # For more tips, visit rajesh-w395.blogspot.com

  • I have only used it for 3 days, jeez I cannot stand big fonts. Worse i cannot see silent option if i dont wanna pick up the call. plz somebody help.. I miss my nokia already.

  • HEY GUYS Y DO U LOOK ONLY ITS DEMERITS? PLS LOOK AT ITS GOOD SIDES... 1. very gud music phone 2. fm radio 3. u can increase its memory upto 4gb (1gb included) 4. internet is fast 5. gaming is a good experience (a motion game is also included) 6. using opera mini 4 in dis set is a super experience. if u want to download large file, use opera mini 4. 7. track id is a cool stuff (specially wen u r listening music) 8. design is standard But guys da call recording is not available in dis phone nd normally u can record upto 30 seconds. if there was unlimited record option, it would be a great phone.

  • i'm using this mobile from 4months...i'm dissatisfied with this mobile...so many disadvantages in this model... themes are unsupported format i.e..,we cant apply the theme which we want...

  • Hey annie! I couldn't agree with you more! I loved my cousin's so i picked this one up. I used it for 3 months but was so dissatisfied with it that i exchanged it with my mom (who's not tech savy) and got 6300 from her. I'll keep it for sometime, then i think E72 should be my next one!

  • I like the model, it's looks, and is indeed surprisingly loud ! The camera is also decent. But the phone underperforms on many counts : 1. Extremely low message memory (60 (YES ONLY 60) including SIM Cards) 2. It operates extremely slowly sometimes : it's as if it takes time for the blood to reach it's brain! 3. Poor battery life, have to recharge it every one and a half days. In general, I can get better features on a nokia vis-a-vis this phone at a cheaper price !

  • insert correct sim card

  • i liked the design & the make of it , its fantastic ,however what disappointed me was I couldnt download any additional THEMES for this model , whereas in other phone ( Nokia ,LG, Samsung ) you can download THEMES online .

  • I'm going to buy this set. walkman is for music- for the people,by the people,to the people.. Those who want quality camera buy k/c series.WHO want quality music,quality camera buy satio,aino,xperias..but don't blame any series for it's weakness,they all have their own unique properties..just enjoy what you got!

  • long press on # for silent mode

  • Yes... You can make your phone silent by holding the # key...

  • is there any shortcut key for silentmode.

  • You have to install USB drivers before you connect the data cable. You can get the drivers from here;

  • Does anyone know how to import photos from the phone to ur laptop?? The wire i have for my phone wont register on my laptop and wont let me upload my photos??

  • my w395 has a problem with its LCD and i do not know where i can get help

  • hey guys...can u tell me sumthng abt sony ericson W395 mobile phone.... how is itz working...wht abt itz performance,features n design...??

  • hey evrybody....can u tell me sumthng abt sony ericson W395

  • buy w595,, it will satisfy your needs,,

  • how can i set my w395 to read the themes and applications that i downloaded. please assist thanks

  • Good work anyway...I din know you are still helping those W395 owners with problems. Anyway, how's the support on your blog page? For me, every model regardless of their functions including those holistic ones only stands out to me maybe for the longest 1 week. After that i will get bored with it. I only feel the pride when i show my model 2 my frens. I was using my friend's W395(Dusky Grey version) for about 2 weeks. We exchange phone s.times. I agree with u, there were some small bugs in the system which was irritating but overall it was a nice fon. I'm using P1i right now( which i started getting bored although its a smartphone).

  • Good mobile but themes not accepted

  • 1. I don't have a Naite; but I have a T715 now, which I am sure, going to live with me for a long time. I mentioned Naite because somebody here tried to justify W395 with its price. 2. You are repeatedly saying 'those who can afford only W395'--please know that NAITE IS CHEAPER than W395, eventhough it has 3G and all SE features. 3. I never praised this phone madly, in all my opinions, I tried to mention its positives(few) and negatives. And as I used it more, it turned out to be more and more useless. 4. I still try to support those who have problems with W395. I wanted those who were trapped like me, to get the best out their W395; that is why I also started a blog page through which I still try to help users. (search opinions with 'rajesh-w395') 5. I wish no more people get trapped in this handset. Many people like me buy this one, thinking that it has the usual features and interface of an SE phone.

  • Hey, i though u were d 1 who were busy giving support when people having trouble with their W395. Since u own a Naite now, u hv started bashing W395! When u were having it, u were praising & supporting it like mad! Obviously Naite is better in many aspects because its more pricier. I've tested almost all sony ericsson models including those latest line-ups like Vivaz,X2,satio eg. For me there's nothing great bout them. Y don't u think about those who can only afford a phone like W395. I agree W395 is nt as powerful as other models like the one u own but think about the people who can only afford it & that's y sony ericsson still releases lower-end & mid-range models. So 2 conclude everything, i would like 2 say, think twice b4 bashing!

  • only the music part is good,camera is not good.

  • nice and easy to used....i like these phone and ilove it to used...

  • i did noy yet buy the set. i had wish to buy the set. but now i am not satisfied by the opinions

  • don't waste ur money by buying this mobile.it is not worth for ur money;waste of money and tension by ur well wisher.

  • DON'T BUY THIS PHONE.. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A CRAP LIKE THIS!! My friend wanted to buy a phone, so I told her to buy a SE phone since by experience, a sony phone is reliable both on hardware and software. So she bought this phone last month. It's a crap! I'm a Sony ericsson fan myself, my third phone was a a SE w810i, and I'm still using it for three years now. w810i which was released four years ago was far better than w395. It's even incomparable to the features that w810i could deliver. My point is, is sony's quality has become cheaper than ever? Never thought that sony could do this to its consumers. Its very disappointing. I'm planning to buy an Aino this month, but I would probably look for other brand.

  • Hi Does anyone know if there is a way of making the text messaging smaller so I can fit more on the display? Thanks James

  • - Scratch-resistant surface ? yes its a scratch resistant surface, but it's a scratchable surface on another side (except the screen) the speakers is great - incl. motion-based + downloadable ? there is no motion based game and i cant use the motion games i download. Picture editor? i cant find it in my phone! we can NOT ADDED A NEW THEME. it will recognize a theme file as unknownable. there is NO NOTES here. the wallpaper cannot be maximized. the keypad is easily broke, especially you with long nails. cannot copy and paste. cannot do task manager. if you send a txt file here, it wont save for you. you have to save manually a file you send by bluetooth. disappointing! i used it and it broke. i've serviced it twice. guarantee are still useable, but i dont want to use this phone. its a crap. i used it only 6 or 7 months. i'm wasting my money

  • This is quite a good cell but it has one drawback it cannot be connected to the pc while in phone mode either it has no drivers and it also has given a suite cd so it cannot connected to the pc for using it as a modem

  • Wanna get all these features with LESS PRICE? Go and buy the new SE 'Naite' You get all the features mentioned plus a lot more...with no bugs and a fast interface, 100MB internal memory plus 8GB micro sd expandable...QVGA display, plus all the innovative features of the new generation SE interface, like save messages to memory card, smart search of contacts, and so and so.. And it is a 3G phone with video call camera! Still at a less price!! Man, don't hang with this crap phone, buy a good SE phone and get a life...yeah, this is the kid's phone...adults can't afford this.

  • can't download theme....please help me.... ?

  • thiz phone is really sucks!!!!!!! can't use any other themes other than installed by sony ericsson!!!!!!!!!!!

  • music quality is great but the rest is something else! you can try to dip this fone in a glass of water while the music is playing! and the music still plays! yeah!

  • this is the worst phone , though it has good sound quality....but the rest of features is really bad. it doesn't support any themes nor opera mini browser...it's modem software is not compatible with windows 7. and lastly it's processing is very slow,very very slow....so please don't buy this phone ,it's merely a waste of money...i am telling this from my own experience.

  • Do not even think of buying this phone. I am very disappointed by Sony to let Sagem produce such a phone. It hangs a lot especially the "Walkman" player. I filled my 1GB card about 700MB and the user interface of the entire phone becomees sluggish. Please don't but it.

  • I wnt ma m0ney back........ I hv never seen such kind 0f w0rst ph0ne.... it d0estn't supp0rt any theme.....Izn't it s0 kiding

  • This phone's very cool. I'm lovin it!!!!

  • not use this phone....in this phone not accept any thems

  • I am not able to find the pin code for sony Ericssion Fone. which is the best way to find it?

  • I used this model for about 2 months, trying to ignore all its bugs and handicaps with functionality. Atlast I disposed it and got SE T715 and now back into the usual interface and functionality of SE. Honestly, now I feel as if I was in a nightmare for those two months!!

  • is it really that bad??

  • it's d worst phone i hav ever sen n my life. it has great looks but zero quality plz don't buy...........

  • buying dis phone a big mistake!!!!

  • its a coll phone exept 4 a few probs lik the themes abt which all r complaining the message stirage is less but for the sum u pay its a good stylish phone.

  • very good mobile

  • this phone is worst the speed & the music is also slow it is hang many times

  • I am very glad with the ericson sony W395. Once I washed it in the washingmachine of course he didn't function anymore, immidiatly I bought a newe one. I am 66 years and use the FM radio MP3 player and of course the phone function. I am totaly satisfyed.

  • Can i change the themes...??

  • its the worst handset i have come across... nokia is the best and user friendly phone... this is so horrble,,, its just a week that i bought it but am planning to change it....plz dont go for it...

  • did sony ericsson w395 support themes ? send answer 2 [email protected]

  • Hey guys, does this phone support WMA songs...?? Can i change the themes...??

  • 4 me it's great phone when U use it 4 listening music, java gaming n browsing the internet.. N it's very durable slide phone.mine has fall many time but still working fine .. But When C5 is come to my country ,I think I will replace it...

  • this phone is damm slow...sometimes when i open file manager n open music file the performance become slow...i used it only about 3 week but da phne make me very2 angry...i am so menyesal...

  • it has ossam sound in handsfree as well as loudspeaker but battery is poor & body is not properly built up.in short bad.

  • I agree with you. But its music player also hang sometimes. Mainly when we play music in full sound.whts dis!

  • Do u know s.ting, u need 2 explore the fon by yourself instead of asking people's opinion. Anyway, I believe that u know its a music-oriented fon, so obviously the music capability right frm sound quality 2 the music player itself, everything is ok 4 me so far. In the camera department, since the 2MP camera lacks auto-focus & flash so its not recommended 2 be used at night & try 2 capture pics with natural lightning 2 get a "gud picture". Then common aspects like messaging, calls are ok so far. There is a small bug i found in the system software which resides on the walkman player >> Just say u set ur favorite equaliser 4 a song, then once the song finished playing, then the equaliser switches back 2 normal. Apart frm that, the system doesn't support 3rd party themes but don't classify it as retarded fon straight away because it comes preloaded with 5 great themes. These are my personal opinions which u cn get 2 know if u still prefer 2 use yr fon as "mystery".....All in all, its a good fon if u ignore all those small drawbacks.

  • Two main probs with SE W395: 1. one can't apply themes other than inbuilt themes 2. Calender given is not user friendly Bit disappointed...soon 'll b changing d handset!

  • Hi. . i bought this phone 2 weeks back. I have tried nothing with this phone. When i gone thru the opinions i felt bad about it. Friends, is it really not worth having this phone. . ??

  • I had just bought w395 i was very exicted to use this phone becuse it has brand name sony ericson after using this phone i am very disappointed. This Phone is good for nothing. I am person who sent & receive the message more than 1000 per day but this peice of crap has only 70 sms storage capicity.In future i will never use sony ericison phones nor i will refer to any of my friends or family

  • it is better to go 4 a gud nokia phone, r u interested in touchscreen & music, then go 4 a nokia 5230xpress music it costs inly 7500rs. or go 4 an e63 it is the greatest phone packed with a loat of function 4 just rs9500

  • Thanks for your suggestion

  • Don't try to download themes b'coz it wont support any downloaded themes, the mobile has 4 inbuilt themes in it..

  • Dont try to download themes...i am trying since last 2 months but i am failer.....it is true . This phone made by 'SAGEM' but branded by sonyericsson. So u can compar this phone with chaina phone.

  • worst one from sony. I was trying to download theme but i couldnt. n ya other's experience is true this phone is freeze frequently and this phone is not worth what v r paying. we can get v good phone from nokia or samsung for the same

The bluetooth is rubbish-(constantly breaking) and iys not just my phone...Im busy waiting for a new phone to be delivered as we speak, ive had sonys since 2005 and this is the worst one ive had yet! and the internet is so slow i stopped using it! Even with opera mini! the speakers are the best part and they cant exactly work when it freezes!!!!

  • Battery back up is very poor, so as sms memory. For a few tips like sms management, please visit the following page; ____________________ (Moderators, please don't block this link. This page only contains some tips and tricks for W395 and it is not for commercial purpose. I have already left this phone and no more updates are likely to be done on this page. Thanks.)

  • hi there i have the same problem with my mxit, it downloads, but wont install, can anyone please help me?

  • battery time is extremly short. Must load it every day

  • You can't turn off message tones and ring tones. While you are listening to a music, automatically, it will stop for a while if someone sent an SMS to you.

  • good phon music is...great.

  • I am a SE user for years! I knew how SE works. But this one is really different. I bought it a few days ago, and I am frustrated. It's really different. Take a look at the menus and some functions. You can even zoom or rotate pictures when viewing it. Also, you can't choose what shortcuts do you want (you can choose but limited). According to some research, this phone is made by SAGEM but branded by SE. I emailed SE about this, and until now, I got no reply. I told them to help us users to enjoy this phone more, to have software updates, to fix bugs, to bring back the original SE functions.

  • Better go for g502 .less increase in price, much increase in specification.

  • instead oof this get the nokia 6303 illuvial pink edition its lot better than this

  • Older se phones are better than these. New phones should contain more facilities. There are no themes, no landscape photo view, no good zoom, less message capacity(se a2 phones have unlimited message capacity). Only when you send multiple files via bluetooth the progress bar shows overall progress (no individual progress) is only good change.

  • For more opinions about f305 and w395, tap in 'f305' in the search box above (However I support what Mobile Dev. posted below. Go for w395 only if you can sacrifice functionality for good sound output)

  • Can anyone please tell me what is the sms storage space in this phone...?

  • Hello there! Between f305 and w395, both of them are not good for PC internet. They don't have a PC Suite which could allow you to do that. For your case, I would suggest you buy Naite instead. It's fully-packed phone already for daily basic needs such PC Sync., 3g, organizers, good music quality, video call. Also, it doesn't hurt your Pocket. It's almost the same price with w395. Also, it has a video call already and 3d capabilities. Try reviewing Naite, you might like it. Win7 Tech.

  • Hi all i want to buy this phone in black color plz suggest whether to buy or not?which phone is better f305 or w395.through this phones can we access internet by connecting to pc plz let me know it is urgent.bcoz i am thinking 2 buy this weekend.how 2 browse internet by connecting 2 pc.which phone is better when compared.

  • Why not? There is an option to 'save message'. You'll be asked to choose between phone memory and sim. If You choose 'phone', it will be saved in 'drafts' folder. If you choose 'sim', it will be saved in the sim card and You'll find it in the INBOX. There is no seperate 'saved messages' folder in this phone. (I don't see any purpose for the 'saved messages' folder in common SE phones, as it is just a place for the messages saved in the simcard; 20-30 maximum. If messages could have been saved in the phone memory too and sorted in a seperate folder, it would have made sense) ___________________________ New users may find a few tips and tricks in my web page- perhaps useful to you.

  • Its true....but it was only for advertising purpose i guess....i feel sorry for u..

  • Hey the keypad is fantastic for messaging and also the battery life is of HAEVY DUTY 9 ON 10 to this phone

  • You can download the PC suit. Latest is version 6.0. Try updating the firmware of the phone with the latest version available. It WILL fix most of the BUGs. But remember to deactivate the firewall of your antivirus. It might block the update process. have fun. I personally like the phone design. I hate the screen resolution, and the lack of AF and a LED flash. If the phone had a 240x320 resolution and a AF Flash, then it could have beaten Nokia 5130 Xpress Music, hands down, with the added Walkman Brand and the motion sensor.

  • Keypad is not so easy/ergonomic for messaging. Battery life is very poor. I usually get 1.5 days for average use and 1 day for heavy use

  • If u pls look at the picture of the phone in the web, u will c a clock beside the battery icon.

  • i used w395 for almost 5 month and having problem with mp3 player.suddenly FREEZING while playing the mp3..can anyone help me on this??

  • hello every1 can any1 w395 user tell me hows its keypad for sms and bettery life? Thanks

  • for chatting this mobile is not so good coz it comes to the main screen after replying every message in the inbox..

  • how do u create themes??

  • No software support by Sony Just the USB drivers on their site to view/change files from the PC. With FLV: you can do more even synchronize contacts in SIM to PC (I did it 2 days ago but only for English text), send SMS from PC etc.

  • do you get the software cd along with the phone?

  • Google for FMA (freeware). Install it and set at the options (connectivity): No OBEX (or something). Enjoy

  • of course it can play next n prev song by pressing its volume button for one or two second...

  • i will buy this phone tomorow :p

  • Hi SE! I have this phone for about 4 months now. I'm having some issues with it. 1. It doesn't have a PC suite. I can't sync it to my PC. It has a USB driver which says it could allow me to use this phone as a modem, however, it is not possible without the PC Suite. 2. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, the USB driver doesn't work that fine. Sometimes, when I switch my phone to Mass Storage mode, it will show. After several hours of using it, when I swith back to Mass Storage mode from Phone mode, it won't view my cards. I've fixed when I reintalled the driver again using a different compatibility mode. 3. It's kinda slow for some reasons. Slow in terms of USB transfer. It's only 400Kbps. I can't remember whether it was faster with my XP before. 4. It doesn't have any automatic setting for my email account. It could have been better if I could use the email feature without having to manually configure it. I'm using Google though. 5. It doesn't have a theme creator. 6. It does not support MP4. 3gp is not that good. Too much compression, bad quality. 2mp, could have been okay for video recording if it doesn't get pixelated. I bought this phone for its feature. In spite of some of its issues, I still recommend this for youths, or those who loves music. The phone's sound quality is good. For computer savvy like me, especially those who want to take the best out of their phone, try another one. Something which you can tweak more. When it comes to java gaming, this phone is good. It has lite 3d capability. SE, please provide some updates to this phone. It's kinda lacking something that could have been in it. I hope my review benefit us all W395 users. SE might re this, hopefully. Thank you for reading my review! Mobile Dev. Win7 Tech.

  • Dun worry Mohit, the sliding mechanism is perfect as I've mentioned earlier. Sony Ericsson have great experience manufacturing slide phones. To be truthful, Sony Ericsson had problem with slide function with their very 1st slide model, W850/W830, but later they managed 2 improvise themselves & their products are now very reliable.

  • Hi rose9101, there is no way 2 activate clock beside the battery icon. I believe u r asking because u have seen it on other sony ericsson models. Fyi, W395 runs on OpenSSl Platform which differs frm other model which are running on Sony Ericsson standard platform...Unfortunately, OpenSSL doesn't support that feature. Any question regarding W395 or any other SE models >> [email protected]

  • Comparison with other competitors similar to w395 its price and functions

  • Is this mobile durable... its slider will not give me problem in future for further repairing and having rounds at his service center........I am planning to purchase in a day or 2

  • why download themes when you can just make them?

  • how can i activate the clock beside the battery icon? anyone pls help me

  • Hey guys. I just got my hands on this cute slider & would like 2 comment on ups & downs of dis model. I tested Dusky Grey version with 1 GB Sandisk M2 on it. Basically it runs on OpenSSL platform & thus its simple & user friendly as well. The phone's user interface is about the same as other models in SE. Just that unfortunately, it doesn't support third-party themes. Users do have the options to use themes but u can only play with the 5 preloaded ones. The best part about this slider is the sound & music quality. Stereo speakers built on it are really gud(loud & crisp). I got HPM-62(the most lowest quality headphone frm SE) in my package. But surprisingly when i hooked it up & played a song through the walkman player ver 2.0, it sounded great. I felt the clarity & the nature of the song. The music quality is mind-blowing. A number of equalisers are present. Bass++ is my favorite but it depends on the user's taste as well. If u want an extra studio-like quality just turn on 'stereo widening'. JAVA apps support is pretty gud. Overall system performance is moderate. M2 inserted works as the RAM. The higher the M2 capacity, the better the general performance! Camera is the drawback. Absence of auto-focus causes the picture quality 2 be just ok(not gud, not bad). The picture will look fine if taken under natural lightning & viewed through a PC. Sliding mechanism is perfect. Now its time 4 me 2 give overall rating. [ Music(5/5), Camera(3/5), Performance(4/5), Overall rating 4/5 ] If any of u have queries about this particular model or any other sony ericsson models just drop me a mail 2 [email protected]

  • cannot apply theme instead u can purchase w580i its really cool.

  • Hope you know that this phone cannot be used with PC suite(no obex). Not sure whether it can work as bluetooth modem. Try to set up a serial port connection and connect...

  • Cannot get my W395 to connect via bluetooth to the internet not get it to connect to the suite. It seem that the bluetooth modem is not functioning. i have the same problem when connecting with the USB cable. Downloaded the update and still no luck. Tested USB cable and PC bluetooth with 2 other Sony Ericsson phones and they work. Any advice?

  • its not good fone

  • hai,i am using w395 it was good for handling,but it does not support themes from other sony ericson mobile,only accept default themes , if you want down load themes from internet is possible.

  • yes i had it. it works very well

  • why does it operate slowly?

  • themes should be supportable i want to viem the pictures in random model

  • You are kidding right. You are saying that W395 is better than 5130XM. On which planet did you get this crazy idea! Here is a list of things that W395 doesn't support but 5130 does, 1. Flash animations (.swf) 2. All mp4 files support (depending on the encoding settings and file size, W395 fails to recognise this format, there is a 60% chance of failure). On the other hand, nokia 5130 supports all forms of mp4 files no matter how big the file size is. I myself have played movies ranging from 300mb to 1gb in my 5130. 3. 5130 can easily handle an 8gb microsdHC card even if it is almost full (can also support 16gb cards). W395 can't even handle a 4gb card properly. 4. Screen resolution of W395 sucks(176*220) compared to nokia 5130(240*320). Watching videos, photos and browsing web is so much livelier and clearer in nokia 5130 due to higher resolution. 5. W395 Doesn't support themes. 5130 does. I have themes whose sizes are over 2mb, on my 5130. 6. Too much distortion of sound at high volumes in W395 due to uncontrolled bass. 5130 sound clarity is way better in any volume level (comparisons are made in terms of audio output, not the headphones used) 7. W395 price is almost 2000Rs more than nokia 5130. 8. The RAM of W395 is 33% less than nokia 5130. Hence W395 is slower. 9. 5130 has 3.5mm audio output jack. So you can put in any headphone or music system or home theater you like, as all of these in market has 3.5mm audio input jacks. W395 doesn't have this and hence only support the headphones from sony ericsson. 10. 5130 has dedicated music and volume control keys. Thus you can change songs as you are browsing the net or playing any java games or going through any ebooks. Thus it is clear that nokia 5130 is the best there is in its price and not even sony ericsson can take that pride away.

  • what reason

  • wifi

  • please dont waste ur money....

  • plz make the phone to support the themes

  • DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ya its true,i have a w395 & it is very slow when browsing files in the memory card.sometimes it gets hang. USELESS phone from Sony Ericsson.

  • hey. . . is handphone this very have a certain quality? ? i like with size he. . but is flash he? ?

  • Yes. there is a good mid range phone from SE- that is Naite (J 105). If you want excellent music/sound with stereo speakers, plus cute design plus decent display, go for W395. But its UI, though new and refined, has many limitations and slow browsing of memory card. No, you can't add thm files- it won't support. Only the 5 built-in themes are available. if you would like to know more of my opinion about this phone, go to my website- to get address, tap in "rajesh-w395" in the above search opinion box (if I type it here, this reply will be delayed due to moderation)

  • this phone is complete shit...don't buy this phone i've had it for 2 and a half months and i already sold it....it does not have themes,camera sucks,battery life runs quickly and it's sometimes hard to use the keypad...DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • to me, the image here is not bad, but when I went to shop to see it, it is super ugly!! Look like those fake phones in china. Who design this? No good... The sound is just okay and the buttons in front is very difficult to press. Don't buy this, you will be very disappointed.

  • sound is good but this is very slowest one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I am having an idea of buying this mobile can i buy this

  • ofcourse u can create and use dial up connections

  • No privacy lock for Messages/Phonebook/files. I think this is a feature of Samsung phones

  • No privacy lock for messages/phonebook

  • Is there any privacy lock for message,phonebook and all..please reply me soon........Iam going to buy this....and i need to see this facility is there in mobile or not.............

  • Is there any privacy lock fr messages and all?? pls tel me............

  • This phone at first looks cool and you might think that if it is a SE it's good. Big mistake!!!!! The design might be cute but the phone it's slow. It always bugs you about not having enough space for your messages. The themes are stupid and you can't add themes. The camera should be 2 mega pixels but actually it's more like 1.3 and the pictures are sucky especially if you don't enough light. Sound quality is pretty good and at least 4 gb card works. It scratches very easy and it looks nasty. Over all if you don't want to much and you just want music and a simple phone you got it but if you imagine you got music,space and a super phone this phone it is not for you. By the way the battery is not that good so don't think that you can listen to music forever. On the bright side it is better then at other phones so..... it's up to you.

  • This phone isnt cool. Keeps on stalling and the fact that you cannot use it to connect to the internet using ur PC. Really suxs
