Sony Ericsson W800 - User Reviews

  • Yep, it has a little nub-stick. You can also use the sony games controller attachment!

  • Does it support 2 GB Memory ?

  • Yes.

  • Does this phone use a joystick?!

  • Mega bass is better . but clear bass is the best

  • Pls I need battery for w881i I'm in Nigeria

  • LED-flash is misleading. In report its correct. Its no flash at all. there is an external flashoption which is firing if needed. It cannot be forced to fire= not ideal. I always thought that is has bluetooth-option for wireless data-transfer. maybe confusing with cable. Dont like the permanent shut-down mode. one has to wake it up by pressing two buttons all the time. ok i understand. battery-life limited.

  • Yes and still using this at this year...together w/ my w810, They had both SUPERB 'megabass' quality,that no ever walkman has to produce,, Im using it as my mp3 player and their sound is far far superior than ipods or other android phone today even with 3rd party apps bass enchancement, It cannot match with these walkmans MEGABASS! Using my hpm 82 adapter, and mdr ex700sl as my in-ear phone.. Im lucky and proud to known and to have this at this time,, Its sound has amazingly unimaginable PUNCH OF BASS! I can say this is THE BEST SOUND QUALITY in the world! No mp3 or equalizer can surpass this ,even clear bass of sony by itself ,their latest walkman player,HD sound,latest ipod or beats on htc... MEGABASS of that old walkman from sony ericsson(W900,K750,W800,W810,W700,W710) are the true essence and quality of a sound/music ! I only had now and using my W800i and W810i.. And im lucky theyre still alive using today.. ill take care of this til d end of time :) Coz nothing like this now that u can find..even the sound of it...

  • 20 euro , it's ok?

  • Currently, I still use it, I like it.

  • I recently got this good oldie. This phone is good, but there are two things that balder me. Camera opens itself without touching everything. It's specific fault to this model. And you can't just import mp3's drag and drop mode to memorycard otherwise the phone says it's imported wrong software or something. You have to use Disc2Phone software to get all mp3's working on phone. Other than that it's very good phone. With these two problems i still prefer the newer w810i. But good phone still tough.

  • My phone stay on emergency call only how can I change it to normal again

  • my fist SE phone..for almost 10 years i used this phone with no issue at all..truly a legend..

  • i love my w800 its tops because i love music and i do believe that the walkman series are rockz almost any other music brands on the market

  • how to browse?

  • 9 years, same battery & still going strong.

  • Great phone, pics are brilliant! the resolution is perfect even for large pics prints!! would anybody know if texts can be downloaded to printer/USB or how to save them as pics in the memory stick?

  • This Phone is AWWWosome Coz its so Simple and relaiable i have it since 2006 And boy its a Jem I love my W800 Coz its KAshas BOy !!!!

  • I totally agree with you. I'm still using it up to this moment. the phone is still wonderful, quick text and easy to navigate. i still has beautiful shots and videos despite of its low megapixels. One of the most wonderful phone ever made.

  • Amazing Phone, love it. . i am using until now

  • I tottaly AGREE with you ... I have Xperia P and LIKE NEW w800i , I will never STOP USING w800!!!!!! w800 RULEZZZZ

  • I just got an almost new W800 from ebay. Oh man! I feel younger! haha I currently have the Xperia Arc S. To me the W800 feels snappier just for the fact that is a straight-forward mobile phone and way better looking than any modern touchscreen phone. Nowadays phones are just a a big rectangular LCD screen, no design at all. The W800 ( and other phones of the day) has a way better design that you can tell it took time to develop. I believe that the beauty of design of the modern phones is in the software due to the use of big LCD displays. I am so happy I was able to find a nice W800 :) Will keep it forever.

  • my shutter button is acting up. this started after about 4 years of using it. i'm using it now as a temporary phone before my galaxy grand arrives. works great.

  • me too, afta launching w800 until now, i have no problem

  • Had this phone for about 5yrs. Yup it's still working nicely I still use it until now the only thing you would notice it that it lost its orange rubber on the joystick & the deteriorating color of the phone on the sides, overall still works fine battery still works up to 3days no charge with everyday average use; my speaker is still loud, in keypads the chrome finish is already gone the white finish is still intact although with some scratches the Camera Shutter button is now very sensitive. Nice Camera w/auto-focus function & light, a fairly huge amount of storage up to 2gb like mine. The best phone for me up until now. Overall rating is 9/10.

  • Great phone.... It made my friend jealous, because it was much louder than his Nokia N70... Still remember that day... Haah those were the days... The money I spent then for this phone can now buy me a new Xperia....I bought it for 17000 and sold it for 1800 after using it 3 years..

  • any body tell me any site address containing softwares for this w800i

  • very good mobile

  • it was a great experence.what a set .i never use set like w800.king of all sets.

  • no

  • i used this phone last 9 yrs. still it works very smoothly.

  • After five years of very heavy usage and uncountable drops this phone still operates pretty well. Perfect sound, battery lasting about three to four days... by far the best choise (at least at that time!) :-P

  • yeah! it's a great phone.... the best cell phone I'd ever had...

  • yes... its a great phone.. i had w800 before and i amazed for such a smart phone, i can't compare to any other phone.. perfect for image capture..durability, no question- its so durable.. i miss my w800 phone..

  • This phone is so reliable. it was first owned by my aunt for about 3 years and still i get to use this now for 7months. this phone seems to be my bff. i cant live w'o it.

  • This phone is just incredible. I had for over 3 years now and still functioning very good. I really love this phone and had recommended it to many people for its great camera and clarity of sound (though a little soft). The main disapointing thing about it is the joystick. I had to replace it twice and I need to change it now but unfortunatly it's not available here in egypt. It also had a rigid frame; it dropped several times and only restarts.

  • I totally agree with you. I've had my W800i for a little over five years now and still love the phone over the years. I've tried several models from other manufacturers (including some N-series) and still hold this phone dearly. It got a fault last week (2nd time in its history - even with tough use) and i'm not moved to buy a new one. However, the onset of 3G, WiFi, etc means I will soon have to relegate my W800 to second phone (for my rarely used second line). Presently considering an Android touchscreen phone.

  • i bought this at release and had it for 3 years before i broke it :( and couldnt find another one :( now i got my iphone and i find myself still missing it sometimes even if i love my iphone

  • Flash Light Is Not Done / Change The New Flash light But Not Working /Camera Also Stil Not Taken But Camera still Sound Only Working Stills Not taken. My Mobile No: 9698909246.

  • no it does not

  • I have own and still use this is a 5yr old phone! I feel like it could easily last for another 5yrs or more! The expandable memory is great for music and photos. The 2mpx camera is better that some of the 3 or 4mpx camera phones I've seen on the market and the bluetooth functionality is easy to use and well interfaced. If the market wasn't turning towards EDGE or WiFi phones I would never dream of getting a new phone! Even now I'm torn on whether or not to get a new phone!

  • This cell phone is amazing and it has a very good battery time i love this cell phone

  • I am still using this phone .Great camera, great bundle of functionality - mp3, radio, still has a tremendous battery life, after all these years. It still is an awesome phone BEST PHONE EVER :) :) i bought it in 2006 it made 3 years in Aug. still going strong, battery hasn't shown any weakness, the camera is great (beter than some new phones with 3 or 5 MP). the best phone SE ever made :) :D

  • I totally agree wiz you hassan. I don't have much to say about this fone which iv been using for more than 4 years. If God had to use a mobile, it wud be without any doubt W800 of Sony Ericsson. ;-)

  • we want sony ericsson to launch this phone one more time in the market! believe me guys, u wont regret...

  • i've been using this phone for 4 years now. i notice that camera automatically switch on but other than that the cellphone works perfectly work for me

  • I am still using this phone every day, I have had no other mobile the last 4 years. The W800i does everything 100% the same as on day 1! Amazing quality.

  • i mistakely dropped my w800i from a running car == thought its the end but surprised when dont even found a scratsh = it has good qualith adio = its camera is very good even of 2.0 mp = its orignal body is very hard = should be avoided with water because water can block its buttons and screen for siveral days itwas a very bad experiance

  • i cant see videos on youtube i dont know why. is this phone have messenger?

  • FULL PACK PHONE EVER. This is the best phone I ever have. I used this for downloading videos from youtube and waptrick. I used it on tv streaming. Awesome in downloading mp3s, pictures, games, and videos. Perfect in java installation. I download a volume of apps and games, and it all works, i love it! most of all i have mgnificent web brwsing experience in this gadget. As a matter I used it now in posting my comment here in GSMARENA! hail w800i!

  • Wish they could bring back this phone to the market. Very sturdy. this is one fone I always regret I never chose that day I bought another. Nowadays, it's very difficult to find phones that truly feels sturdy and solid in your hand, small and pocket-friendly and no clicking back case. Miss those good old days. Hope sony would release fones like this again.

  • this phone is very memorable since my bf who is my husband right now decided to buy two unit of w800 as our mobile phone and a gift with each other last dec.2008,then the only problem is i need to give up this phone for important reason and my husband also lost this phone in mrt station..sad..sigh! but were planning to buy another unit of sonny ericson!proves that ericson rocks our life!

  • what is the diffrence between this and sonny ericcson w800i?

  • this phone is great! drop this 1 time and the lcd brokes. joystick is so cool, and im going mad when i clicked it or navigating. it doesnt response to its right direction. RAM is good. it cant run opera beta 5,and it restarts. nice java security, i got moby explorer and keeps asking me permision billion times. THIS PHONE ROCK, SE ROCKS!

  • common problem with this phone is that the camera switch at the back is not working...so If you have this SE w800 be careful to use the camera switch at the back

  • this is my problem with my phone.how i lock my phone coz my son wil use my phone and he can use everyday . my suggestion is how to lock sony ericson ww800. so that it can be private use to me.this is my number incase i have a change to lock my phone 09216790978 pls call m or txt me t. tnx and godbless . im lover of sony ericson phone.

  • mine's been blocked and i can't unblock (can't call out or text out). gave it to my teenage daughter and it came back like this!!

  • I have this phone for 3 years still working great batery still works as the first day

  • I do not know how to operate the camera section of the phone w800.

  • se-nse.net go there n u will learn evrtng abt ur phn

  • you know it's babe.whenever i get weary and i'll enough.playin on my w800i.lol. how can i flash my phone with cool menus.

  • great phone, brilliant media player, really robust (apart from the silly joystick)

  • 0000

  • all i need is the security code for this phone

  • this is one of the best phones of all times better than any nokia

  • 100% agreed babe

  • I've been a w800i user for almost 4 years now and it never let me down! moneys worth! camera, walkman, excellent batttery even up to now. still one of the best unit released by sony ericsson together with its t610 and p1i. My only problem right now is the casing. Almost 20% of it have faded away esp. those silvery portions like the cancel,back,okay button,joystick as well as the silvery circle holding the camera at the back, plus the battery cover got cracked already. But even with those casing problems, i still cannot find a new phone to replace it! if only i could find an original casing replacement for it. Darn, its hard to let go this kind of phone. I'm trying to look at naite, c701, or the t700 but still i'm having doubts especially that SE lately produces weak phones. how i wish SE would go back to its glory days.. nevertheless i would will give the phone 10/10 rating even after 4 years of use.

  • U hav two options to improve walkman sound: 1.natural way(which is easy as hell:)) 2.modding(which requires knowledge and patience) 1.natural way:do manual eq setting n raise up all the bars until it cannot be raised nymore 2.for modding go to se-nse.net

  • hi guys,do you know how to make volume louder when play mp3 player in speaker? it s really low compare to other set..but radio sound is loud when in speaker..equaliser dun work to me its sound is a nightmare..

  • @forhan: pls send me your patches with installation description to [email protected], especially for profile change in on-off button, use of camera in java, rename file with extension. thanks! W800 user for 4+ years and still love this phone.

  • I myself have found variable bitrate is better in quality and saves atlest 200-300kb space per song than in constant bitrate.wat do ya think mates?

  • As another poster already mentioned, it's probably the wrong tune format.check if it's a supported format.for instance, maybe you uploaded wav or something.that's why you can see it but aren't able to play.

  • make sure they're in a supported format perhaps?

  • This phone is already cool.But u can make it much more cool if u hav knowledge about modding.For example: I hav installed several patches.Description in a short- a)i can change brightness between 10 to 100% b)multicolor battery c)dark red progressbar in walkman(default is light red) d)blacklist(default is whitelist) e)use of camera during java f)changed sms n locked keypad icon g)display light immediately turn off after keypad is locked h)no startup or shutdown image.so phone boots ultrafast i)faster rewind forward(1minit in 1sec) j)light turns on by pressing camera key k)profile list when pressing on-off button(nokia style) l)no beep during recording m)no security question(allow network connection;etc.) n)rename file with extension Hope u do like it :) tata.....

I'm a very rough user but still this phone is tough... dropped from a moving car... fell in water... still no problems... bought in 2005... EXCELLENT PHONE.... only recently it is giving me problems... now I can't use it... need to flash the software... but I don't wan to... will keep it as it is forever... the ORIGINAL w800i... not the new cheap ones which cannot zoom in 2mp mode... sad SE doesn't make phones like this anymore...

  • Bought the phone 1month ago. Camera got damaged after 7days. Speaker got damaged after 14days. Felt so much depression. Took it to the servicing center.They demanded 10 USD to fix it claiming it harware related issue. Today I flashed my phone completely by myself. Every thing is fine now. I think u guys should congratulate me :) I want to give thanks to my god.. Allah...

  • I think this phone is great. i didnt have much problem & the bat can last for quite a long time. id dropped this phone inside a pool & it still ok, sound still ok.

  • Ive just retired my W800...it has served me well. 4yrs of good stable service. Im gonna miss my W800 a true innovation of its time.

  • I think dis phone is almost the same as k750. All its softwares can also likewise work on k750. They are like twins. Sony eri jus change the casings altho w800 can also work as walkman. Another sony ericsson mec with similar features is D750. Sony Ericsson hav gone mad again

  • I've had the phone for 3 years and it is brilliant. Great Walkman features, phone records, camera, sound... it's user friendly. Downside is you don't want to part it.

  • it can play 30 hour continously in walkman mode

  • got it in Augustus 2005 and after 4 years i still think it is the best phone ever,got also the P1i for the last 1.5year but it is not so nice like the W800i

  • Its an excellent phone. I luv it...

  • I've been also using it for the last three years and it never let me down. Its camera, walkman, internet, calendar/alarm and adressbook features are just great. I even use it like cooking timer and flashlight. Have I already mentioned that sometimes I make phone calls with it? ;)

  • Honest to God this phone is sex on legs because its never let me down and i've had it for 4 years now and it hasn't even broke down from software problems. Love this phone and to all u bastards that i hate this mobile suck yo mama's titties and die!

  • Hi! I am using W800i for last 3 years and it works great. Never even thought of changing it. Why in reviews, its Walkman Feature is not mentioned ? The phone can run in two modes, Phone mode and Walkman mode. In walkman mode, it can play music for 19 hours straight. Great for music lovers...

  • the best music phone ...sound quality is awesome..

  • well iam getting the phone cant wit looks sos so sos sos osgoddddddddddddd

No comparision at all in terms of photos,sound and all. Thanks W800i

  • Hey, my beloved W800 just died & I can no longer turn it on, is there any way I can retrieve the phone numbers from the internal memory??

  • been selling phones for well over 6 years now and to date could nt recommend a more robust or enjoyable phone just put my experia in the draw for summer in place of my beloved w800 4 years old and it still kicks ass memory camera old school asthetics its the one to have a must by if you like the se brand

  • best ever in its time around with w810 w550.. wowwwwwwwwwww, now se is going down, unfortunattely..

  • I have one W800,it's great! What's more,I can DIY the phone by FAR+sefp software! I love it! It brings me many happiness.

  • It is a good phone but mine got stolen,it is easy to handle when i was using mine and it camera is very clear as compare to other phones..Am looking for in purchasing one very soon.

  • it a very good phone in sound and in picture.His sound is better van w810i

  • just wanna say that i love this phone. despite the fact that the camera wont save pictures, keys 1,2,3 enter and up and right on joystick don't work, i still love it lol...hopefully i can get those things fixed!! p.s. i got the phone second hand so don't know how old it is

  • i really love the W800i phone.even though its the oldest walkman phone,its features are still in.still,can compete to nokia 5310.its speakers are better than nokia xpressmusic.also the camera.everything are ok in this unit.

  • I am using w800 phone.i live in Sri lanka.It's very good rather than other phones.easier to handle.

  • this and k750i are the great rival phone at their prime. still i gotta regard this 2 as the best SE creation ever.

  • i m basit from kohat\pakistan. i m using w800i.it's realy outstanding set.i like its walkman system.it's maga bass is realy bumbastic.ha ha ha wow wa wooooo. my profession is prothetics and orthotics engineering.thank's

  • that's my fon dude !!!! altough it's a bit oldskulz but still it's my fon ....

  • nice mobile i think

  • i love sony ericsson . what an amising it is

  • the problem is simple...it's a bug in the factory phone's software. my g502 drives me crazy every time with that automatic shut down, but you can solve that problem with a data cable and few softwares from sonyericsson.com :D i can say my phone works better after updating the software :D try it and you'll find the difference :D good luck

  • it is called the white screen of death. there is a debug on some SE phones and pc consoles

  • my phone is off several times daily what is the problem ( automaticaly swiched off )

  • I have this phone for two years, and yes, it's still working! The only problem is the missing edge technology, grps is too slow!

  • about the security for the gallery, you can add an application to your phone that does this, search online... about the automatic idle mode, there is as well it's in the phones settings used it it works... really love this phone! had it for four years now, still working fine and bec I take extra good care of it, it doesn't have much scratches or chips. every feature still works! really love the phone!

  • it's a very good phone..but can it uses a 4 gigabyte memory card?

  • umm not sure exactly what you mean, but on the phone, when you go to the files on "file manager", press "more" (when you've selected a file) > "manage files" > then you can copy/move the file to and from the phone to memory card.

  • This is a well made phone! I've been using it for 2+ years and still haven't had any issues so far. Btw, does anyone know how to get pictures out from the phone memory? It seems I can only download pictures from memory card using the USB.

  • i used tis phone for 4 years dy.. it still works vry well except for the navigation keys and the camera key(i dun mind cuz it still can work but bit tough) and battery life.. tis phone worth it xP

  • thanks for the help, but the volume's already as high as it can go. the only way i can hold a converstaion clearly on my phone when i'm on the street or whatever is to use the headset.. which i dont always have on me. - -" it's annoying

  • Perfectoooo phone

  • The music quality of the phone is really nice got mega bass and 3.5mm earphone the look is nice with white and orange and got the walkman flavour but Sony Ericsson should pay more efforts on the navigation key/joystick.

  • hello can we talk because i also have the w800 phone. hit me on cutebface @yahoo.com

  • Use the volume buttons just like when you`re listening to your musics.

  • u got downs m8

  • I have owned this phone for more than 3 years and it still a classic.

  • heya people i've had this phone for over a year now, very pleased with it. just one problem, the volume is really quiet when i'm talking on the phone. mainly when it's in a noisy-er environment like on a road or something. are all W800i's that quiet? let me know, thanks

  • iam using the sum phone i also had that problm that means u mass take it back 2 the shop the problm is the software is lost in the phone so it use 2 be instald again so take it back 2 the shop it wil b find jst trust me

  • I very love to use W800i because it very convenience.

  • what is this combination do?

  • i have been usig this phone for years.bt it switches off sometime and never restarts.why is it?

  • lol i meant, i even forgot how long i've had it for.

  • i've had this phone for YEARS, i even forgot i've had it. It's a great phone to use and i love it. Although it has been switching off on its own recently, i guess it's wearing out. :)

  • yes this phone does support the 2GB card.

  • This phone has been my phone for almost 3 years and I really, really love it. Everything I want is in here, the walkman, camera and messaging. I already bought C905 as an upgrade but W800 is still with me because this has served me great.

  • this phone is good to everyone,it has a nice design .

  • it is anice phone !!!

  • does this phone support 2GB memory stick?

  • To all SE owner. Secret message in service menu. At standby mode press > * < < * < * then select info then select MODEL INFO then press 2,4,6,8 you'll be amazed =D (> right, < left, * asterisk)

  • It's a nice phone but I still want urge Sony Ericsson Mobile Manufacturers that they should try as much as possible to correct this problem of steering/joy-stick.Because this is the only reason some people don't like Ericsson Mobile Phones.Thanks

  • I simply love this phone. It is a BEST,BEST,BEST PHONE I ever use......

  • I've had my for one n a half year now and I got it from my mom after she got a new one.. It's the BEST mobile I've ever had and I strongly recomend it. I've dropped it several times on the floor and it just can't break!

  • hey sandycool before u insert the memory turn off ur mobile and after u insert the memory turn on ur mobile

  • Hi jack, i have this beatyfull phone and yes,8gb work good and fast.

  • I have got this phone 2,5 years and its very good.Camera is great and video too.Long battery life. 4gb card accept with no problems.I dont know about 8gb??? Bad things on this phone: plastic body,cheap plastic.

  • Hey! It's not a bad phone. But there's one little hitch. It doesn't have security features that locks the phone in idle mode or lock data such as gallery, phone book, messages e.t.c. It will be a plus if Sony Ericsson could include this feature in all their phones.

  • when i insert the memory card,why my w800i restarted automatically again and again

  • You're probably getting it confused with the W700.

  • iv had the phone for 3 nd a hlf years and i myt say its a gr8 4n i wouldnt wnt any other.i lyk it handz dwn if u dnt hav it i recomand u gt it :-)

  • i have a lil'prob with the earphone plug but it is very durable... my W800 dropped a couple of times, case-out, batt got out but it still works.. very nice!!!

  • it's white and orange. just the lighting. =)

  • Why does the phone look silver and orange in some pictures when it says there are no alternative color schemes to the White and orange scheme? is it just the lighting? or what?

  • Good phone. My battery has dips and bruces and whatsoever but it stil works perfectly. Very strong phone. Only comment is that my video's are acting weird lately. Think that's the software acting shitty..

  • I have this phone for over 3 years now...i think its the only phone that i had for so long without any problems. BEst phone ever actually...i am trying to buy something new but don't know what phone can replace this one. My first phone was nokia and then i switched to sony erickson and i got addicted with its features..others prefer nokia

  • Best phone I've ever had. Alomst as user friendly as nokias but definately more robust especially given it's sleek design. I've been using mine for almost 3 years now and ended up throwing away other phones that I 'upgraded' to in favour of this one.

  • Very good design and featurs

  • i must say.. this is by far the BEST ever phone. i've had this for over a year. second hand. the person who had it before me battered this phone to bits haha there's scratches everywhere. the only annoying thing is that there LOTS of dust trapped in the screen. it's nearly impossible to see the screen under the sun.. which can be annoying.. can anyone tell me how to solve that dust problem? thanks.

  • Love this phone...!! My brother gave it to me more than 3 years ago (he got the phone in some SE event in Sweden before the official release)and still working like the fist day... (just the joystick suffered an accident after the phone fell into a glass full of coke - and yes, the phone survived that-). I never missed a call because the reception, and really don't want to change it, but i treated it very bad in the past (when i didn't realize the treasure i had) and now the phone is all crook and very scratched (and is not easy to get it to that point), and now that i'm not a student, i feel a bit ashamed of the phone looks in front of my boss and mates at work... After all this time I charge my w800 every 5th day or so!!!! the sound and reception are flawless! I usually don't get tied to brands but now i'm in love with SE and don't think i will change my mind soon...

  • the best phone ever.

  • the best phone ever on planet. all those phones with so called state-of-art tech nothing compared to this beautiful. i always say if God were to use a phone it will defintely be w800. [email protected]

  • W800i one of the best phone sony ever made and been using for 3 years still good condition i dont think wanna change for even n81 8gb becoz the music is better than whatever new phones on the market i tried all new sony phones w800i is the best for me wooooooooooooooooooo woooooooooooooooooooooooooo

  • have it fixed. it's really worth it. it's really a good phone. :D

  • i had this phone 3rd hand form a friend but shortly after i got it the joy sick stopped workin which really annoyed me.... oh well apart from that it was a good phone :)

  • the best phone i've had so far... i would buy a better phone but i can't part with this one... i've dropped it a hundred times but it's invincible.

  • Well, my 14th is coming up. I've had this phone for a year (I bought it second hand from Ebay). It's been great. I've dropped it loads. (Even from above my head hieght. I'm tall), and the keys and screen are still in good condition. I want an upgrade though. If only it looked nicer lol.. And I want more Waklman features. Also the camera's started to go dodgy (probably from constant use) and sometimes wont work, but the pic quality is great. It's been a good phone but I'm bored of it now tbh..

  • does this phone supports 4gb? i wanna upgrade the memory card if possible.

  • w800 model is definitely gud!!! Its awesome..

  • good and lovely fone , its music is marvelous , its camera is also gud

  • What i like about sony ericsson is that it doesn't want to prove anything... it's more like a lifestyle

  • I think those websites with Sony splitting with Ericsson are FAKE! i mean if they really were officially splitting.. then it would be on the news and on BBC etc etc so those websites with that news on are clearly FAKING IT! its false news! all SE fans will agree with me. Nokia fans will deny it because they know theyv faked the news...

  • I bought w800 8 days ago in Accra, Ghana;n i cant just help smile at n admire it every morning when i wake up. This is so so beautiful. I think this is phone God would use apart from any. Trust me.

  • The japanese company Sony will split up the swedish company Ericsson. symbian freak site se-nse site

  • To all you music lovers, W800i is one of the best phones.

  • can sum one pls send me da pc suite of w800i...my email address is [email protected]...

  • I bought W800 in 2005 and kept it in my collections. Such a cool set with very impressive colour. It is still unused

  • Funny... I too am looking to finally replace my W800i with the Xperia X1. I tried the K850i last year and although I was impressed I still am drawn back to the W800i. I purchased this phone right when it came out back in August of 2005. There are very simple and powering reasons for this - the phone, simply put, is SOLID and FAST. I've dropped it a million times and yes it's even been run over by a car, no joke. The build quality is superb. Also navigating and general functionality is flawless and quick. This is probably due to not much programming overhead. The phone does exactly what you need it to without useless things to bog it down. The 2MP camera looks great. The walkman functionality is great. The keypad is very clicky giving a perfect response. And the joystick is one of the best around due to a tiny rubber piece in the middle. As mentioned above I have tried newer SE phones and while I am a SE loyalist I still am always finding myself wanting to stick with my W800i. Bottom line - if anyone is looking for a great phone get one of these because they are now very cheap. I've seem them new on ebay for around $100 only. The fact that they are three years old means nothing. You really aren't missing anything in the newer phones (but alas I will try the Xperia X1).

  • It amazes me how you guyz keep asking these questions about which camera phone looks the best, the answer is NONE, All these cell phones use cheap lenses.. PERIOD ive got a nokia 1.3M, sony 1.2M and another sony 2M pixel phones and all outcomes are the same! Clear in the middle and blurry going out toward the edges. Nothing changes, i go to my sony digital camera and go to VGA mode and the picture is IMACULATE from the inside and out!! No blur's at all its all about the LENSE. And until these cell phone companies realize to put in better lenses, the pics will always come out half way descent. But then again its a cell phone camera.. How much quality do you really expect to get?? Try it for ur self, if u have a camera phone and digital camera, set them to the same resolution and snap the same picture and look at them on the computer closely..

  • The use of software or peripherals not authorized by sony computer entertainment america may damage your console and/or invalidate your warranty. Only official or licensed peripherals should be used in the controller ports or memory card slots.

  • can't find any remedy for that too. i can only save around 200 messages including the sent items folder. as long as it's a good phone, i think i'll keep it.

  • can anybody tell me how much msg memory does this set posses? im interested in the cell,,but i want high msg memory(atleast 500) plz wud u ppl guide me n tell me how much msgz can this set store at max?

  • hey can ne body help me out frm da msgs stuff...............w8ooi jus save only 200 msgs after dat every time i hav to del da msgs...how can i save more msgs/???????????

  • I have a W800, but it seems that I can't use a memory card with it. Whenever I insert the memory card, the 'white screen of death' appears... However, whenever the memory card is NOT in the phone, the W800 continues to function normally... Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this..? Thanks in advance...

  • And HOw I WIsh there was a Black casing!!! hehehe...

  • Hoi!...to everyone..lewls!! Just drop by again to praise the phone!!..recently, had lots of great explorations with it...To tell you guys, you would really appreciate SE w800 if you use it up to its Fullest..Try to explore and make use of all its features..Then ul discover that it's all you need in the pocket...ul be satisfied and the starvation to look for a replacement will be eliminated... By the way, there are lots of applications(freewares) in the net that could help you in exploring and reach desired goals with the phone....Thanks be back for more updates...ciao!

  • how do i deal with weak bluetooth connection

  • 5310 is NOTHING compared to Walkman-Phones Walkman Phones simply DEMOLISH XpressMusic Phones just please whatever you do get 5310, its not good W800i is better in every aspect!

  • I suggest that you go for the SE w800i. They are both music phone, they both have the same features but the main advantage of SE is that it has a camera light and has an autofocus feature unlike that of Nokia 5310 which has a fixed focus camera.

  • hey plzz can ne body tell me dat wats da last limit to save msgs on dis phone...lyk can v save msgs on meemory card anh how??/help me out????????

  • i tried 4 gb card on dis phone ...bt it doesnt work....

  • This phone is EXCELLENT!!!! I love Sony Ericsson cells...they are the BOMB!!!! The 2mp camera of the phone is terrific!!! the walkman sounds so good!!! AND Pls. don't compare sony ericsson with Nokia, Samsung or even Motorola.....no ofense....

  • I have swapped my p910i for this and have no complains with this. i'm using 2gb, have anyone tried anything beyond 2gb memory stick?

  • W800 is a good phone

  • W800i is Good at everything to be honest my experience with it is all Good Music Playback is Amazing thanks to Walkman and the bundled Earphones The 2MP Camera is the Best 2MP iv ever seen on a phone Telephony is also Quality, Call Quality very crisp and excellent sound the Loudspeaker is Loud to Keypad very Comfortable, Joystick is SOLID it cant break no matter how hard you try to to break it refuses to break which is good Display is Clean and Bright very clear and just Perfect Size - is just Perfect very perfect id say Design - Looks really COOOOOL everyone stares at it whens its seen its just Perfect, i would recommend it anyday anytime

  • Thank you. If you happen to own one, I'd like to hear about your experience. Also, now I'm looking for an upgrade, but it seems there aren't enough powerful contenders out there with a really strong motive to replace, at least not in the SE range. There's no more all-in-one devices, always something is missing. Lg Secret could be the nearest posibility for me. What do you think? Thanks in advance for your reply.

  • sony ericsson represent! ceese up

  • it have rechecked it with sony ericsson shop, w800 can only support up to 2gb. anything more than that won't work with this phone. i love sony ericsson phones too! i have sony ericsson p910i by the way.

  • Very well described and it is 100% True

  • Yes, it's absolutely good. I'm using one since January 2006 and it is still in perfect condition. High quality materials are used, so I guarantee you this will last for ages. I've dropped it like million times on all sorts of surfaces, but it almost looks the same as the day I purchased it. As for features, it has a very nice 2mp camera that takes quite good -and sometimes wonderfull photos, a very good music player with Sony powerfull earphones, stereo FM radio with RDS, and a 512mb memory card. The file manager is easy to use and very simple. The phone is allover fast-responding and intuitive. The photo gallery is nice and fast, zooming is also fast. Loudspeaker volume is high, so is the call volume. The only downside in my opinion is the video recording capabilities. If you need a reliable phone with nice music and camera features, go get it. I hope I've been of some help to you.

  • cool

  • Its Perfect all-round

  • is this phone good? it looks so cool!

  • My w800i last bout 3 years without problems.. now i think wanna upgrade its memory card to 4 gb or even 8gb cos im very sure this phone will withstand a lot of memory capacity... Long Life W800i!!!!!!

  • I already had this phone, it's not that bad... but i STRONGLY RECOMMEND buying a Sony Ericsson K610i instead! *-=> SE K610i RoCkS!

  • it is not only 10sec in the video of that phone. you must click the no. 0 while the video has activated you will see that the logo in the video will chage to a star so that you can save a long video that you want.

  • Agree, 4Gb runs smoothly on this phone :)

  • I using w800i this is phone is very good joystick is super i love my phone

  • It sucks. I got to send it in after around 2months. It's a bit sad, cuz I think I miss it. Good cam btw.

  • does w800i has only 10secs video time?

  • The phone is superb.....cannot think of a phone to replace it...sound quality is horifyingly fantastic that other brands would shiver...lol...cam/video= great. specially at night unlike other 2.0.....this one is incomparable and please dont compare this to a Nokia coz nkia UI sucks=lifeless..

  • it works with 8 gb card :o

  • 4GB Works PERFECTLY! no problems at all..... dont hesitate to try 4GB

  • i have a 2 gb memory card in my w800i no problems, i also tested 4 gb memory no problems too, both of them sony

  • I think it's 2GB. It'll say on the review on here probably.

  • Is this phone good for SMS messaging? How about the camera?

  • I am still using 2gb memory card without facing any problem .But using a 2gb or 4gb card this phone will get little slow.

  • W800i another Legend, what can i say This Phone just is the B E S T ever!! Perfection.......! SE Rules @ fox_ph Supports up to 4GB without any problems!

  • The best cell phone ever!

  • how much maximum memory does it support? 1gb?

  • Awesome.. i love this phone..

  • Got me hooked as well, never want anything else!!

  • Perfect Phone in my Opinion, Camera is just Amazing, Walkman 1.0 is Awesome!! All-Round its just Wicked. SE 4 Lyf!

  • this phone is definitley one of the best phones ive ever had, its actually what got me hooked on to sony ericsson.. ive just upgraded and got the W880i and i wish it was more like the W800.

  • Has long battery life.

  • I've had this phone for about a year and a half, and its not really working well. When I turn the phone off, I cannot turn it back on. I don't know why. I send my phone to the service center and they said that I needed to update my phone, but after it was updated, it worked for about 2 days and the same problem came back again. Does this problem ever happen to any of you guy?

  • I have had this phone for over 2 years. Its just died. I love it and its the new standard for future phones for me! I don't know what to buy now!! great key pad. Lost the top off the joy-stick but it still works well. Good memory and good camera. good size.

  • I think I am going to revet back to one of these as they are fantastic. 2mp camera and its still small and stylish! K850i is different series-its a replacement to the k800i and that was a replacement to the k750i! W810i was the replacement to this! why did SE bring out a W700i it looks the same but is lower spec!

  • I've had this phone for 3 years - still working like a charm =) I'm looking forward to the XPERIA as my w800i replacement.

  • i m very sufficient with this ph.

  • @ G9 lol The Only Great replacement i can think for W800i is a Walkman Phone W810i or K850i

  • So after most of us have agreed that the W800i is the perfect phone, until it breaks... what is the best replacement for such a fantastic phone? Any ideas?

  • 2 Inch's

  • How many inches is its scren?

  • This phone is just gorgeous!! Love the design in the cover, great colours mix, plus the camera comes with a cover which make me feel safe about the lens. Nice grip, just perfect, not too big not too small. Compares with the latest SE phones, the volume is kinda low, but I dont need them to take over a party, so I satisfied with that, besides, the voice quality is better, wont make my ears annoyed by unclear bass or sharp notes like other phones do. I had it for more than a year, hope the joystick and the rest of the part will last longer more than 2 years LOL (I read some comments said after 2 years there would be some troubles with those parts). I searched another phone lately, Nokia and Samsung, I tried them and read the reviews, SE got better phones!!!! I def wont buy but phones except SE. Too bad this phone is already discontinued, cos i def gonna buy this phone again later if mine broke "O" (Broke after years didnt considered as quality problem, its quite normal for electronics). SE rocks!!

  • @bulk Yeah, W800i is compatible with 4GB

  • I have it for 2 years. That litlle orange rubber fall of a joystick very quickly.Now sometimes i have problem with contacts(headphones,charging, etc) It is a good phone.Do you think I can put 4 gb ms inside?

  • Better than w810,but minus 3g,edge,a2dp,with annoying memory cover(made from bad rubber),self destruct joystick, great headphone but will stop work after one and a half year,no stereo widening(this is very dissappointing because w550 as the same era product has stereo widening)

  • a really supa phone though i let it fall in water it's still functionin... really great... only tht the cam s kinda stuck sumtimes... but anywayzz... the cell tht worth my comment...

  • GR8 phone ,i like the earphone .u cn adjust the equalizer to make the phone lest bass s0und,the loudspeaker is clear how eva i do feel the s0und is low, cn sumone tell me the max battery life when using with the player .TQ

  • i have this phone for 2 yrs. My problem now is that the keys 456, joystick & the menu keys won't function anymore. I tried to open it, i thought it's just a dirt keypad but still don't work.

  • Yes this phone is great... but as i didnt take care of it it finally died on me.... what annoyes me the most with my SE`s (because i only use SE)is the cable where the phones plug is very weak and very breakable.... still the joystick lasted for a long time, 2 years... the problem why it died is because of the battery which got swollen up like a big balloon... i really recommend this phone to people want a nice mp3 player

  • I have this phone since it first appeared and I must say that it's very resistent to shocks:) The camera works very good, the battery also(up to 5 days if you don't use the player and games), the sound is good, but the greatest disadvantage is the joystick!!It will stop working after a while and that's quite a bad thing about it. But at this price, it's worth buying:) P.S.-I had it for a triple price when it first came out:(

  • guys you can see k530i instead of w800i b'cause k530 contain 3G and the same camera(2mp),and great PROCESSOR SPEED exceeding nokia N95,It also enables GPS by connecting HGE-100, which is not seen in w800i.I request to the guy's please also verify k530 in this website about k530 great function and also read the enthusiastic user opinions of k530i.

  • This phone is fantastic! Ive had it 4 quite a while now but it still works like I have only just bought it!! No problems atall! I would totally recommend it!

  • its very good

  • I've had this phone for 2 years or so and it was probably the best I ever had. I never had any problem with joystick or anything, it's just great and I would recommend it to everyone.

  • i had this phone for about 2 years..and it's very nice...i really luv the features...even if it's 2mp only, i still luv taking pictures to it....it's the best se phone i had....now i have nokia 6300 but i still want the se w800...luv it...everyone must have....

  • I Bought a W800i from my Friend for �20 !! its been used aloot but everything still works in it! i Love it W800i to me is Perfection in a Phone! i Love the W800i

  • This is a fabulous mobile, it is easy to use and has wonderful features. It also has autofocus in its camera which is good for taking photo's this is also the first walkman mobile phone. 8/10

  • Dis was da best fon i had.but unfortunately i undestood dat after selling ma phone.

  • how many of you that own the w800 are having joystick problems?

  • I have this phone already at 2 years and it is in perfect conditions. Everythings on it works perfectly, the battery is working like a new one! I'm just worried because the scratches and because it isn't so white like when it was new! I was thinking in an upgrade but I don't find the perfect replacement. I think I will keep it more to years to see what's next!

  • great ophine, user friendly & has lot of memory..

  • w800 isn't compatible with 4gb card - 2gb max. To Dani... W700 have bluetooth 2.0, but haven't autofocus in camera

  • what the range of bluetooth conectivity

  • I bought this phone a year n half ago. and its worth its weight in platinum. I never knew what a great phone i had until i sold it and got more than 50% of its original value (after 18 months of use). I bought a 5310 and it sucks... bad battery, meek ringtone volumes and horrible s/w..kept switching off. the W800i gave me excellent music quality, amazing battery life and amazing durability under extreme circumstances ( i trek a lot and i must have exposed my phone to water and dust or several occasions- the phone gave me no problems watsoever) This phone, i think, was a trailblazer for Sony's eventual success

  • is there any way to add extra language to this phone ? feel free to tell me at [email protected]

  • Superb speaker, louder than w810. But i have a question hope somebody can help me, is there anyway to add extra display language? Please email/add contact [email protected] for the solution :)

  • is W800i compatible with 4GB Memory Stick Pro Duo cards?

  • can anyone tell me what is the difference between w800i and w700i? and what about the k750i? i think the 3 are the same phone but their difference is only the housing.

  • it's very very good cell phon but i want know how can i save my sms(short message)from cell phon in my computer ?

  • What is so good about an MP3 player that doesn't have a minijack???

  • is a nice phone i ever ever had.. i had it since 2years ago.. and im stil using it.. like one of them said,only d joystick problem.. and the screen stick alot of dust.. cant see the screen under the sun.. but is PERFECT phone..

  • does anyone know how to get my photos from the phone memory onto the memory stick, or onto the computer? thanks JG

  • Yes yes yes!! the best phone ever!!! the only negative point is the joystick, that after 2 yers it begins to work incorrectly; but all phone is very very good!!

  • After having this phone for two years. I have concluded that this phone is probably one of the best phones ever made (in my opinion anyway), now correct me if I'm wrong but I can't find another Cybershot phone and Walkman phone with the same features, like this and K750i. All I seem to find is that the new Walkman phones seem to miss out on autofocus and flash in the cameras. :(

  • goodgoodgoodgoodgooodgoodgoodgoodgoodgood it is the best _ w800i is better than w810i

  • My W800 is not playing songs and ringing sound is also not coming .only vibrater is working.And one message as coming "this problem is occured by using wrong PC software. Please use the Disc 2 phone software. were from i will get this software" Please help me Benher

  • what can the W800i be Upgraded to?

  • I bought K810i as a replacement for my 2 years old W800i. I bought the K810i because i thought 3.2MP with xenon flash is a good upgrade from my 2MP with LED flash W800i BUT I WAS WRONG.... The photos from the K810i were not better than my photos from W800i. The colors are dull and not as sharp. The xenon flash was only good at night time. For macro shots... you cannot use the xenon flash because it will overexpose your photo. FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO UPGRADE YOUR W800i for 3.2MP cameraphones.. better think twice first. NOT A BIG DIFFERENCE AND NOT WORTH IT.

  • I have a question? Will this phone be sold next summer? I want to buy this phone. Whats the pros and cons? Thnakyou for your help

  • my old phone...now i got prada ke850 nf i really want my old mobile back! it's the best phone ever! w800i gots everything nd it's perfect!

  • great phone... was the best phone available at the time it was launched... got mine for a while and still in perfect condition... like it better than newer W-series too.. (except for W960, really like the touchscreen feature... but then it doesn't stand against the N95 8gb...)... it's got old generation walkman player where you can manually manage music files.... great... anyway, it's a nice looking, COMPACT and very good music phone...

  • finally, i got this phone. i bought this 4 months ago,and the joystick is fine. and the rest is incredible! what a gr8 fone! the only i dnt enjoy is taking videos 'coz my fone can only record 4 abt less than a minute.d u think i nid to upgrade the memory card?! im using 512mb. pls help.tnx!

  • I LOVE this phone. It is without a doubt the best phone I've had. I've had it for over a year and a half. When I have to buy another mobile it will be a SE. The camera quality is just like a true stand alone camera. Sound quality is great, design is really great. I live in the US and it's not a common phone here (I purchased it on Ebay). I have only two sorta complainaints 1. Is that when I place my phone in my pocket the camera lens sometimes opens. 2. Which I knew when buying is that it's a Tri-band phone if it were a Quad band, it would be so much better. Again I knew about it so, I can't be upset with the phone. I've taken this phone to Europe and when I had to use it, it was perfectly clear. People couldn't tell I was overseas. Again I LOVE this phone.

  • plz i want anybody to tell me the solution to my phone problem,really i love sony ericsson but i keep on having problem with my battery. i use w800i but when i use it for music it goes down with time.

  • Hey! this fon is so cool. I bought it 'second hand' from a close friend and all of its functionality are still atop 95%. He's been using it for more than a year.

  • This phone really pleased my needs of music an technology for the past 2 years. Now that I have the option to change in it for a brand new w960 I really feel sorry, cause it has been a real neat gadget that has helped and entertained me a lot. I even miss its dedicated walkman buttons (something very difficult to find with a sensitive screen). Still love it. PS: I love it also for its 4 Gigs memory stick duo.

  • david, i was extremely pleased with this phone also until i dropped it and broke it. id safely say it was the best phone iv ever had. i then decided to upgrade to k800i, which has 3.2 megapixel camera and some other extra features. so id recommend that, as you can pick it up for less than �100 now. thers also a k810i, which is an update but almost identical. i think u cudnt go wrong with eithr of these.

  • What does one upgrade to after using such a great phone for 2 years? Any suggestions? The only things I'd like improvements on are: 3MP camera, better flash, better video. Other than that it's pretty good. So where to from here?

  • ok i'm planning on getting this....how much memomry can it use.... i'm not phone savy but can it go up to 2gigs?...or is support the right word? .... can it support a 2 gig micro SD card?

  • This is a totally wonderful phone. I traded it out for a Z610, and I missed my W800 right away. I dropped it over 100 times, got it waterlogged, accidentally stepped on it with my boot and it was fine. For the time when it came out, it was definitely one of the best phones ever.

  • Although the rubber on the joy stick removed due to rubbing of the joy stick but i replaced the rubber with an orange stone from a shirt i used to use and no more problems people tot it was a diamond so if u've had the sample problems now u know the solution anymore question just mail me [email protected]

  • if ur phone restarts simply back up ur sms, contacts, bookmarks and remove ur memeory card from the phone and run a master reset it would solve the problems and if u are still not satisfied with the results the delete some heavy memory consumption files from either games folder or application folder and ur phone would b perfect and always remember to leave free memory on the phone to run applications and games without problems i had one for over a year and sold it for a P990 not that the phone was bad i sold it bcos my brother got himself a w850i and my phone felt inferior so i got my self a P990i but in all i give the phone 9/10. the only thing i do not like about the phone is the fact that when u play videos it kind of pixellated apart from that it is the perfect phone even some java application i used to run on it does not play on my P990i. I used a 2GB memory card with mine and had no issues at all cos i had about 600 tracks and about 7 full length movies and so people used to get jealous. Anyone considering this phone can buy it, its a wonderful PHONE

  • Could anyone tell me how to upgrade my phone(k750i)firmware to w800i firmware,and what changes that it could made when it turn to walkman version..k,thnx

  • Could anyone tell me how to upgrade my phone(k750i)firmware to w800i firmware,and what changes that it could made when it turn to walkman version..k,thnx

  • just flashed the software of my mobile and the result is mind blowing. the mobile plays louder , the camera is even better and the mobile is swiffer

  • to dirk, sorry 4 late reply. was busy. so since this operation involves modifying the system files of the mobile, there is a risk your fone can be dead if and only if you dont know what you are doing. so you need to back up your system file(GDFS) by XS++. then if u've done something wrong you cam always restore your fone from the back up. i can show you how this can be done but i take no responsibilty for what your r doing with your fone.

  • to darksifer, oic.... thats great... but if you're gona change some settings, will it cause my fone to be unusable? will it cause my fone to function improperly? ur opinion dude? thanks....

  • dirk, to increase the sms storage capacity you need to install "Far Manager" and some usb drivers. then you need to edit some system files on the mobile. and u can store upto 30000 sms

  • can someone tell me how i can increase the sms storage capacity of my w800? thanks to those who can help

  • perfect 10 for its, design, features and performance coz everything that this fone has was perfectly featured on this fone. Effective flash for cam and video, lens cover for protection, small, lightweight, handy, simply the best!

  • this fone is gr8. have upgraded firmware to R1BC002. works perfectly. i have also upgraded the acoustics. no need to describe. have also tweak the sms. can now to store up to 30273 on the fone.WOW. i just love this fone. god bless SE

  • Absolutely love this piece of ugly looking phone... Thats what it is absolutely ugly but it works as a dream no restarting when dropped no screen cracks no distortion only problem is the volume it is too low on the speaker and low on the earpiece.I must have dropped it atleast 100 times and if any seafarer there they will know what is bay of biscay and during rolling in my watch left it on the port hole when i came back found it on the floor rolling b/h to b/h i was absolutely shocked to find it still working fine w/o any damage and am still using it w/o prob. Planning to c/o to w960i when it is launched but will miss this baby.

  • Nana, i have owned this phone for a year and i have never had the problem u have. I put a 1GB memory card in it rocking!!!

  • My very good friend got this phone a while back, so I got to play with it. It is almost a spiritual successor of my horrid T610. S.E. seemed to have fixed some of there previous issues as the quality of this one is detailed enough so that the scroll wheel and buttons dont stick. However, the screen, processor speed, and camera are still sub-standard to most Nokia. The exterior is nice, but owners have to make sure it does not get scratched. Overall, its only an ok phone, not great.

  • This fon would have been the best in the world if not for a few problems i encountered with it. The fon restarts for no reason. The camera refuses to function. The housing gives up after a few months. Its greatest feature is the sound quality. Its amazing

  • Best phone ever! i love it, dropped it about 50 times and has never broken and has the best features especially the memory and clarity of the screen! -the only thing is the joystick has stuffed up and wont go down anymore, but i cant bare to get rid of it, thats the only downside to these phones

  • Does this phone get slow when upgraded to a 2gb Memory card? Please everyone help me-i love this phone but i am out of space...

  • I'm from the caribbean and ive had this phone for over a year now and ive ran into alot of problems with this mobile. Firstly, after constant usage the rubber pulp on the joystick falls-out and the phone constantly "restarts" by itself.The speaker is terrible. But on the other hand, its a good phone to use for music.

  • I have been an owner of this phone since the first day it was available. I wanted to share my opinion of it before I sadly get rid of it for the new SE K850i. The best thing that can be said about this phone is it is absolutely SOLID! Solid in terms of firmware, functionality, speed, options, and all-around usage. I have had this for over two years now with very heavy use including dropping it about 50 times. Besides some scuffs and scratches it performs without fail as it did the first day I used it. Along with the 50 times I've dropped it, believe it or not it has even been run over by a car... STILL WORKS!! The battery is original and charges fine every time. The joystick still works flawlessly. There is only one bad thing I can think to say about it and that is the volume. It is not very loud, neither the ear speaker nor the loud speaker. All aside it is a minor setback. To summarize, anyone who is looking to purchase a phone that has current technology and is up to date both in styling and functionality, but does not want to spend a lot of money, this IS the phone for you. I will be sad to stop using it, but I will definitely keep it as a backup.

  • this is the most orange phone i have ever seen.

  • Hi everyone, my phone has absolutely horrible battery life, probably 1/3 of the life I got with my z710i, and it is with similar use. Does anyone have suggestions to help me improve my battery life? I don't even have 1 day standby and this is a new battery. i decreased the screen brightness, thats all i could find. I also switched to a pro duo card that i suspect is fake and the battery life seems even less. Would that make a difference? Please email any suggestions you have to me. Thanks!

  • I love it.

  • hey guys, does the w800 support flash menus?

  • hii Bimal... just put the phn in silent profile.. after tht no sound will come on snapping.. :)

  • Put the phone on silent mode.

  • bizarre.. my phone's camera beep and shutter sound is turned off when my phone is on silent. there are unfortuantly some good/bad points abou this phone. the most annoying is the joystick, sometimes the 4 directions do not respond when you move the joystick in a direction .. but then it works after a while and another side malfunctions..:S probably because this phone is over a year old. although the joystick is failing, the battery is still in fantastic order. i havn't replaced my battery since i got the phone and it still lasts very long per charge. overall, if i was to get another phone, i wouldnt get one with a joystick. too much hassle. i would get something like the W810.

  • * turn off

  • heyyy gr8 phne! jus wanted 2 know if any1 knows how 2 turn f the camera sound?? whn eva i take a picture, it alwayz makes a loud noise, even when the phone is on silent. can any1 help??

  • to Andu I think I'd like w900 but I really want to know about the battery Bcoz I'm afraid it's less better than w800

  • jus love it

  • w900 has 479 mb internal memory, it`s 3G, it has a larger screen , so i`d vote with it ;)

  • yes, the camera cover opens accidentaly when you put it in a very tightjeans, but it doesn`t take any pictures. I have thins phone for a year and a half... it`s a good phone, great earphones, pretty fast. I recomend it to everyone.

  • All Music Phone's are Judged by This the W800i when W800i came out in 2005 3 Month's after Nokia copy's them with the 3250 ! W800i is The Best Music Phone ever !

  • hey guys, i wanted to ask you if the back cover of the k750i fits the W800??? And also is there any type of problems concerning the opening of the camera cover which automatically activates the camera??

  • Ahhh the Original and First W800i if Only i owned one ! i Love it

  • This phone looks really nice! I love it!

  • nokia 6233 can't compare with this phone... only crazy people that said 6233 better in camera and sound quality than w800i... very2 stupid people.... w800i is far2 away better than 6233

  • Hi ppl's, for whoever posted the comment on what to do if u drop ur mobile in water: Ur best bet would be to immideatley take out the battery ,and place to dry for a few days till TOTALLY DRY and NOT BEFORE!!! then u can place ur battery back in and it should hopefully start working properly again... tho some discolourations ecc.. in screen coul be apparent :( Pls note that if u drop in salt water (ex: sea , ecc...) rinse ur mobile thouroughly in fresh water (Yes completley dunk ur mobile in water again lol!!!) this is because if salt is left on ur mobile mainboard ecc.. this could be MUUUUUUUUCH more harmful than just water :(, after rinsing just dry out as stated before... GL ppl if u need any help on this jus email me: [email protected] Alredy done it on quite a few mobiles and had quite satisfacatory results ;D

  • mine is fine.. already have it since end of 2005.. good camera, good sound. Sometimes it does hang, or playback failed but that's because I don't use its software to upload the songs. by the way, if compared with the new types of SE, they don't differ that much..

  • Hi guys does anyone know whether this supports A2DP bluetooth profile? I have a SE DS970 need to use with my purchase.

  • hey can anyone tell me what to do if my w800 falls in the water? is it messed up for good or can you fix it some how kuz this one is my favorite phone

  • Hello.I have the w800 and i like the phone.The only problem i have is that it's not reading my memory card. It either freezes when i put the card in the slot or it doesn't even turn on.PLEASE HELP!!!

  • marcin...if the joystick is an issue u can go for w810i ..for sure better than 6233 ..great pics, great sound,...

  • i've had this phone for maybe 2 yrs now..it died on me TWICE, first time it just flash a white screen when i turn on, and that's all i see..then 2nd time it won't even turn on...and in between, the phone will freeze, i couldn't add music to my playlist by folder, i had to add the songs one by one..in general, i'm not too happy with sony ericsson's phone(s)

  • Wow!The best 4ne i ve ever used.Great quality music & a good camera.Better than a k750,w810 & a w850.

  • I have this phone for about one year... Is the best phone i ever seen... sound is great.. photos-the best i want a new phone.. but beter like this i can-t found.. great batery, greate look... i love this phone.. is in my heart..

  • MArcin if u want high quailty display and 2 mega-pixel camera and louder then w800 go for 6233

  • if i would have chosen w800i over w810, whud it be a mistake?

  • Hi, Yes. W800is joystick is lot more better then K750s onez, some say its of steel...

  • Go on ebay or like in New Zealand we have trademe and look for SE W800i software or just get a new charger. Hey and is it true that the Joysticks are really bad or did the W800i joysticks improve?

  • I've been looking for an affordable phone that plays really good music, has goo picture and video quality and is stylish...then i found the W800i, the only thing is, that every one keeps on telling me that joystick phones stuff up after a quick while. Is this true, because I dont know whether to get this or the moto Rizr or the Sony ericsson Z610i

  • I think it is a good phone to use and it is much easier to use!

  • so are you guys sure the joystick is fine because i heard that the K750i joystick always break

  • This phone was the worst desision I have ever made!!! I purchased it on the specs of the phone:- Battery Life, storage, Camera. I have had only problems with it:- It changes it's ring tone by it's self, Turns the sound off, The joy stick only lasted 6 months, and the camera has stopped working. The only good thing is the storage came with a 512 mg card. DO NOT BY ONE!!!

  • Yes bro , it can accepts 8gb card .

  • yes, him accpted Memory stick with 8GB. i have one and works very well. with 1200 music 150 or more 15 videos +/- 130 min and 2GB for others things... att

  • does this support 8 gig memory card????

  • Where can I find software for W800i? I downloaded it from the SE site but my computer doesn't recognize the phone... Please help [email protected]

  • why at all walkmans are whrited walkman player but at this one arn't...? is here walkman player??

  • Somebody please help, how do I download music from my W800 onto my laptop. I connect the phone to the LT with a usb cord but the LT does not pick up the phone. Do i need to download any software? please direct me to the correct software. Thanks

  • i've been using this phone for over a year with the newest firmware on it. minor problems that aren't too bad are stuff like the camera just turning on sometimes (from the shutter slightly opening in my pocket), and the rubber orange thing on the joystick came off ages ago (makes games kinda annoying). in terms of use, the phone is GREAT. this is prob the best phone i've had to date, and look forward to the w960 in Q4 of this year. the shutter on the w800i's cam is great, keeping scratches and crap from screwing up the lens. autofocus, flash, burst mode, and various great cam features made me happy over the many months of use. picture quality is great although in low light there is some graininess and minor distortion. what do you expect? it is after all, a phone. mp3 playback is great and the little external speaker is quite good for what it is. i've had the pleasure of annoying countless people with playing music on the speaker.

  • Finally !!! A LockPatch / You Can Lock Ur Keypad Wth A Password :) guys, i have found this, a software to lock the password for the k750/w800 and probably for the w810. please please watch the video on U-tube to see that there is really a program that requires to enter the lock code in order to use the some applications... to download the software click on this: ­ please help, coz i dont know how to use this patch and where to put it! thanks in advance and im sure that many many of u will be surprised by this video, but it is for real...

  • Hey guys'n'gals , i want to know that which Walkman it contains (walkman 1.0 or 2.0) . email me at my ID [email protected]. Thanks

  • the w800 joystick works fine, i play games frequently, and my joystick is still fine after one year. but my friends had to repair his k750 joystick 3 months ago. We bought the hp almost same time and he too is a frequent gamer. so i guess w800 joystick is more durable then the k750i one

  • i heard that the joystick doesnt work well after a while is it true???

  • my sweet sweet sweet ex phone i m really missing it toooo much.. i kept this fone for one year and i dont no why i sale it and bought w 850.... this fone is way better than w 850 i really love this phone and now i m buying it again w850 u go to hell i want my sweetheart back.....

  • hi... whats the difference between a w800 & w800i?

  • hello i got my w800 like a year ago but the house charger broke and i have no way of charging the phone excpet through the computer except my comp isnt excpetin the phone what so ever and i cant charge it! any suggestions on how to get the program to identify my phone?

  • I changed my mind guys im not taking the W800i special edition anymore..instead im taking the K750i Special Edition, cuz i dnt like the orange side of the phone it kinda looks childish and not that elegant!:S p.s. only differance between W800i and K750i are the Mediaplayer interface, the Flightmode capability(W800i) and cash($$$)...I am going for the K750i having it this Friday(shipping)

  • No ways is the leader , tchek this link :

  • Hi... what is the latest firmware ? mine is "R1n035",and when I update can my phone damged if update failed... please help me.

  • W800 can run W810 software not?can support 2GB card not?

  • Just upgraded from W800 to W850i. W850i the better walkman and bigr memory. However W850i bit fatter and camera not focusing well. W850i has sharper screen but buttons stiff, will maybe loosen up later.

  • I bought it recently .This phones every side is good but its monitor is too short.

  • i did a lot of surfing on the web for like hours and hours what was the best phone overall...by brand i found out nokia and sony ericsson.if you want a phone without having any problems with software/casing changing colour after continous use(wear)/money(nokia has the most expensive phones) go for nokia BUT if you like listening to music and so now and then take pictures SONY ERICSSON is by far the best.after searching for a good sony ericsson i found that the first Walkman phone(W800i) has a superb sound quality(even better then Ipod), a outstanding camera(2.0MP,4x optical zoom) for making photos specially with the optional MXE-60 camera flash, great display, sweet battery talk time/standby time and above all nice user interface; a big disadvantage is its video quality is low but what do you expect its a phone u cant hav everything above that i wont be spending much time making video clips with my fone...SO i chose for the Sony Ericsson W800i special edition as soon as i hav my phone im thinking of bying the MXE-60 detachable camera flash and W800i DOCK for my W800i SPECIAL EDITION(ow yeahhh) Sony Ericsson ROCKSSSSSS :p:D:D

  • If W800i compared to W850i,which one u guys think is better??? Which one is the best walkman phone between these two???

  • Tis still the best phone around, great sounds decent pic and most of all everthing customizable, the short coming of tis phone is its small screen. froget abt n73me, i used to have it and sold it for tis phone cos i listen to mp3 all the times.

  • >> It's really the BEST

  • hey guys.. i wonder if i can change fontcolor and fontstyle in this fone.. :zagu

  • Good Phone been using it for 13 months now and i hav few complaints 1. screen is grainy when in fullscreen mode while playin videos 2. deleting a game from the games folder makes the phone reboot but from application folder is ok so if i want to delete anything i simply move to application folder and delete 3. i put in a 32mb card in the phone and the performanced dropped so do not put any card less than 512mb in the phone if u want to enjoy the usability of the phone. 4. camera is excellent even in a pitch dark room. although sligthly grainy but superior to other led flash cameras by far. 5. walkman player is perfect just that fastforward is not as fast as later models. Overall good phone i love the phone wanted to trade it for a p990i or w950i but id rather add them to my collection instead of trading

  • i seriously Want a W800i !!

  • the best of all wolkman series.... "the mother of walkman phone..." the best phone i've ever had. best camera best audio best ui the best of all the non OS based cellphone!!!!!

  • em i bought this phone few months ago and now the joystick started to work worse when i turn it left. is it a sign of a bigger problem or would it be enough only to clean it?

  • This phone is absolutely fantastic. The king of modding along with the K750. With more modifications of my phone it is hard to let go. Hats off to Sony Ericsson this phone is the best. Maybe an upgrade to W810i is the next but as I said cannot let go off this phone... Cheers..

  • changed from w550 to w800. got to say, w800 is superior to w550 in almost every aspects. Very happy with it. But after using for few months, i realize 2 major flaws in the w800. first, it cannot 'copy and paste' text like the w550. second, it hangs quite often when you try to zoom into pictures, almost as often as once every 30 times. So guys, am i the only one experiencing this? is there a way to solve it? some advice or comments will be nice. Thanks

  • simply wonder i love it i have it at started its too good

  • The best music and camara phone in 2 mpxl class, with autofocus, good lens cover, good flash etc...

  • it's a wonderfull phone that combines everything in this cute appearance. i wouldn't change it except with the w 81oi maybe.

  • this phone is the best phone over the world :)

  • This fone is awesome! i just love this fone and very much happy with the perfomance and the Music Player :) its been more than 16 months i am having this phone. Absolutely its a wow! hats off too Sony Ericsson for making a legend w800 (A history in making with First walkman fone... and i am having it)

  • my friend has bought this 2nd hand phone recently & he is very angry bec his phone is having a little bit problem in bluetooth &he was using w550 so acc to him the sound quality is also very low someone plz help him he was going to take k750 instead of this one now he ll go back to the dealer and get it replaced

  • BLOODY EXCELLENT. After 20,000 Txt messages its Still PERFECT. Love this phone.

  • i have this phone over a year, since 2006 february. It is still a great mobile. I had no problems with it.

  • my w800i gives grainy pics when the surroundings arent very bright; in fact even during night when i use the phone in a room with a tubelight on. any suggestions? thanks

  • hi. i've been using a w800i, and love the set. i'd like to know how to enter space and decimal when one is entering text in the number mode while messaging. could somebody please help?

  • I've been using this phone for a year now... i can say that it's a verygood phone. Pros: The camera is great, It's 2mp resolution is still one of the best, compared to new 2mp phones. The 512mb memory is enough for all your needed memory space. The size is very good, its small and can easily fit in your pocket. The sound from speaker or earphone is very good as well. Last but not the least, the phone is built well no bugs or hang ups. Con: The orange thing from the joystick usually become loose and without the owner's knowledge, be lost. But the joystick can be used without it so no big problem with this one. Sometimes though, i miss the d-pad of my s700 phone. It's really easier to use compared to the joystick. But as what everybody says, nothing is perfect but my W800 is really close to being one.

  • looks good, sounds good, features good. its an ideal phone for music lovers.

  • i'm using this phone for seven mounths and i find'it the best phone i ever had'it. the camera has a tremendeous quality and the walkman has a super qouality for the sound!!

  • this phone sucs, the software failed three times and i have it for just ten months. It's full with dust and i don't like it at all!

  • Using this phone since almost 2 years i dont find any phone better than this.

  • Absolutely perfect phone. Camera quality is A okay and the Walkman awesome. For a more thumped sound just buy an expensive 3.5mm headphone and blast. I don't want the default 1 it makes yah feel deaf lolz. I love music..

  • hi i have this mobile i dont know how to turn off flash voice(silnet) when taking pictures plz tell me if u know tks

  • Awesome phone, no comparison with any other phone. Good job sony erricson

  • This is my favorite mobile & digital camera, I took a lot of pictures (more than 13,000+) & put it on the web: Have fun with this Stylish mobile.

  • I am a god and I use SE W800i for like what? 2 years now! I got it when it was launched out of the market. Still works OK. Mine's in mint condition..too bad its not for sale. If you have one, love it. Treasure it. Worship it. If you still dont have one, drool!

  • so bad the rubber thingy on my phone is lost, i hate the joistick of this phone...but this phone is great, well rounded.

  • im thinking about this phone but i want to know 1 thing. are there any problems with joystick? are there any1 using this phone for two years and having no cracks? THANK YOU

  • i hav had this fne 4 three months & when i have a phonecall i cant hear what the other person is saying very well, also, when i use the camera it says open lens cover when it is open & wont let me take any pics... even tho these things sound bad, i love this phone and since having a sony ericcson i will never go back to another company xxxx

  • i bought a fake one without bluetooth, infrared ,and radio. i would like to know if i buy the genuine engine, i 'll have all those features and more that the original w800 has?.

  • Got this phone for about a year, don't have much complaints but a few points to consider: I dropped it three times by accident on hard ground and it chipped a little bit of the white plastic. Taking photos in high quality, you gotta wait a slight while till it captures the image so hold your hands still and steady. I keep putting my phone down on desks with the back down and the mirror at the back got scratched and you can't really use it anymore. Back removable panel for the battery is a little bit wobbly and loose over time. Screen slightly scratched but that happens on most phones. That's it, overall a good phone with lots of features, it's been available for a while but it's still rivaling a few other new phones out there. Sony Ericsson has a lovely user interface, very easy to use, will last a long while yet. Enjoy your phone! :)

  • Is no battery formatting for W800 necessary?

  • Removing the battery of W800 is not very hard. Just remove battery cover and simply press the battery towards the upper side of the phone [the phone's ON/OFF button end]. Then it automatically released from the phone.

  • I have a simple question, i put the battery in, but it seems to me that i can't find a way to take it out. HELP!!!!

  • When the Phone's switch on, the screen will just light up and goes blank. Nothing to display.Anyone can solve this promble?

  • Dear notintonokia, thanks for ur answer even it was a bad one. It is very easy to be rude in ur words but only the kind clean hearts show respect to God who created the lands and heavens. anyhow, i see this website was not created for such speech. so lets talk about the camera of this phone which really attracts my attention. is it like the cypershot of K550? and i asked if the zoom 4X is enough for such capabilities of this phone. hope to hear from u soon greetings

  • hey i also experience that problem on the screen, it works but the screen light is of...what i do is that i turn off the phone...and its okay now

  • @w800 is there a way that u can hav or upgrade to walkman 2? @ Godlover im sorry, my bad... maybe u wanted me to say.. "if The Almighty God have a cellfone.. dis wud be it!!" is that "having a little more respect" to you?

  • was wonderin if any1 could assist me, the light for the main screen of the fone does not come on anymore....everything else seems to be working alrite, its just that the screen remains dark and the light does not come on. Please if anyone could help me....it would be really appreciated.

  • for all those who tried the phone for long time and liked it. Is ur phone made in China? and is there any problems for sets made in china? thanks so much

  • ive had this phone now for a year, ive had no problems with it at all. its still amazing and i get lots of compliments on its looks

  • If you care about music then Nokia N73 music edition is better. But its music playing menu/software/options is not so much customizable like W800i. The headset sound quality is very good, also in the handsfree mode.

  • well, i love the features of this fone but, i only dont like is the orange color.. :(

  • iiwantthiswantthisiwantthisiwantthisiwantthisiwa­ntthisiwantthisiwantthisiwantthisiwantthis so long story short I WANT THIS!!!!

  • thanks people for ur comments on this phone which seems to be so nice to the degree i hink really to have one. but i would like to ask is 4X zoom enough? N.B: i hope we show some more respect to God, not using words like( if God has a cell phone.......etc) this is just a notice. thanks

  • If im interested only in the earphone music,is W800 the best choice for me ? or should i go with N73 music edition? or what other do u suggest? i repeat i don't care about the cam or any otherthing in the mob.I just want a mob with a sound u can compare to iPod

  • love this fone but can any1 tell me how to download the software of the internet so i can put my cable in to the computer thanks xx

  • Too bad it doesn't come with any other color.

  • "hmmmm fos some reson i keep trying to delete my songs when i do this it says deleted but is not can any1 help please thanks" weellll.... that happens to me too... didnt find a solution though.... the phone s nice... too bad i cant change the colours at the shell hehe... anyway memory card rocks :>:>:>:>

  • if God have a cellfone.. this wud be it!

  • This Phone is PERFECT AT ALL I love this Phone. The best phone I ever had

  • Since I had W800 two years ago, I have had 4 other cellphones, namely W550, W850, K750, and W810. But nothing can beat W800! Not even W810 which supposedly has the came kind of camera as W800. The pictures taken with W800 are really crisp and clear. The camera of W810 sucks because when the background is bright, the object becomes dark and you see glaring white cast behind the subject. W850 camera, I can't even describe how bad it is. The video is pixilated and makes you feel like watching a video using an aquarium! The amounts of pixels are reduced as well. So, I always comeback to this little gem. W800, you rock!!!!!! 2 years have passed and you're still going strong!

  • Best Cellphone EVER!!! No questions ask!

  • hmmmm fos some reson i keep trying to delete my songs when i do this it says deleted but is not can any1 help please thanks

  • this is world's best phone i like this phon i want to be honour of this phone

  • Very googd fone indeed,but gat one problem. Wen I try to add music to the walkman, phone switches off then on again. Wat could be the problem?? Holla back any one who knows the answer to my problem. Thanx!!!!!

  • hy GIDIEZEL...how much is w800 and w810 now..as itold u that i wanna buy w800 but it isn't still sold here so plz tell me how much is it now at ur country and w810 too?

  • theres something wrong w/ ma phone, 8 suddenly shotdown...antbody knows how to fix this problem???

  • Hiii! does anyone know how to turn of the camera noise when taking a picture??

  • I am doing some development on w800, the photo taken feature works well. However, video is not working for J2me applications. Does anyone know how to resolve it? you can download the application from www.mobitorrent.com

  • Hi all SE fans, i agree that the w800 is a legend and for that case i plan to get it. i currently have a w810 for a year now and it is the best phone i have put my hands on yet. so i want ask for your opinion and experiance, i know both w800 and w810 features are alike, but are there any problems with the w800 software or any kind of malfunctions? thanks for your help, Spartan,

  • this phone was and still a legend .. really i love it ,, my phone is w810

  • it's perfect! i'm loving it!

  • to lewet... to install apps on the W800, just copy the file on the memory card directly... no need to use file manager... you will then find it in the "OTHERS" folder in "FILE MANAGER" move it to its coresponding folder (eg. THEMES, GAMES, etc..) and the app will be installed...

  • to michael... thanks for sharing ur opinion... actually W810 has a better display than the W800.. same resolution and and size but much more vivid colors... that's why it has less battery life... i still have my W800 and still don't know if i'll buy a W810.. BTW... i think W800 looks better than W810.. the metallic orange strip is really nice.. the small silver dots around the display and the orange strip reflects light artistically... love it...

  • is this phone able to play videos in full screan mode

  • my opinion for those who have w800 and wish to change it for w810-don't do it-it's absolutely the same thing but in different color.it has the same functions and camera just the display on the w810 is little bigger-thats all!Se ya!!!

  • Hello guys.. I hav sew800 and its d best hp i hav ever. but i hav a prob, how 2 install da application such a game. the pc suite is difrent than nokia pc suite that i used before.. so plez help me 10Q

  • hy GID...if u wanted to know whether to sell w800 to buy w810..in my opinion don't do that and don't buy w810..w800 appearance is too great and its sound is louder(little louder)than w810...so why u buy w810?? i'm michael from egypt and i'm looking to buy w800 but thay say that all w800 phones are sold and won't be again here...so again w800 is super mobile phone

  • W800 vs W810 vs W880 i'm currently a w800 owner who will soon opt for a w810 or a w880. but i'm hesitating.. the w880 is somehow too expensive and has a relatively poor camera... the w810 is said to have a poor battery life... 2 QUESTIONS: do you think i should sell my w800 and buy a w810? will i have value for money when purchasing the W880?

  • hey.. can any1 tell me whether putting a 2 gb card slows down the fone..??

  • it have a good memory and best camera with 2 mg.pic camera best themes its small,and bay it

  • Hey Guyz.. I've lost ma phone(W800i) a few dayz back and trust me i cant find anything to replace it..it has somethings like these which similar SE phones in the same range dont have: ..a great camera ( 1632x1224 pixels, autofocus ) ..amazin music quality(the output is low but the ear phones does the trick) ..MP3 player ( up to 30h playback ) ..9 hr takl time ..34 MB shared memory however one think i hated bout this was whn i used to talk on the handsfree...maan its tooo noisy on the other end(mic without a good filter i guess)...is that the problem with most of the SE phones??

  • i do not prefere china phone, most of their phone is low in quality, it might hav a deffects...i dont trust their phone. a lot of pirated gadgets u can see in china, most of theme u cannot identify easily which is original or the fake one....so people, plzz be careful in buying ur phone, go to the genuine SE phones.

  • w800 rules!!!

  • i thought SE phones were not made in Europe most of them seem to be in China havent seen 1 SE phone made in Europe all china made which is cheap and not perfect

  • Dear friends, thanks so much for ur comments but I would like to ask a question, is there really difference between Sony Ericsson mobile manufactured in China and those in Europe, as I heard that mobiles made in China are less perfect. Hope to hear from u soon

  • hope you will put this back on the list...we need more opinions to read about w800...plzzzz

  • Thanks very much to the people who mugged me and stole my W800i on tuesday. You nicked my favourite phone.

  • @ mac: "MP3/AAC player, up to 30h playback if the phone is switched off" This phone has 2 modes when you first turn it on. One is the normal and the other turns off the phone's arial so you can listen to ur music whilst on a plane or in a hospital (places where they forbid mobile phone's radiation). The later mode saves battery as its not powering an arial :) hope this helps. overall, best phone iv had EVER, and i work in a phone shop. IPhone's on my wishlist :p

  • I've had the w800 for 12 months now and I'm finding it really hard to find a fone to replace it as I've been really impressed with all the features. Can anyone recommend a replacement?

  • u can set any ringtone in w800 to ur alarmclock etc...even mp3 tones u can use it, its universal

  • hi,pls answer my question.i want to change my phone to SE W800 but i dunno whether to buy it or not.Is it good?i like the features but i dun know whether it is good or not.pls answer my question

  • Can users pls help me? Can ringtones in W800 be assigned for message alerts and the alarm clock? Or is it disapointingly like the Samsung D500 where there are only a number of pre-set tones to choose from for messages and the alarm clock? Thanks.

  • hey guys.my rubber thingie came off as well but managed to keep it and used super-glue to paste it back on.now i have no problem.really love my phone.don't want or need an upgrade.the one i have is soimply perfect:-)

  • i just finish cnverting a home video and movie thru ACALA 3GP MOVIE,.. my videos are now fluint, i dont hav a problem of pixelated videos anymore...

  • some one help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee what does it mean????--->- MP3/AAC player, up to 30h playback if the phone is switched off

  • somebody help me... my phone sometimes freeze, then it suddenly off by itself...any one knows how to fix it??? is there a need to format my memory card??... plz answer

  • to chris, same thing happened here... the rubber thingy on my phone came off as well... :D not a big deal though, still happy with it... the only drawback now is that i need to scroll with my fingernail...

  • Notice the orange rubber on the joystick? Mine came off in just about half a year. I realized that if you use your nails too much instead of fingertip to move the joystick, the rubber cracks and peeled off. It shows that the rubber tip is not too durable so new users do be careful.

  • HEELPPP !! my w800i has no sound/ very little sound what shall i do about it ??

  • ya i know, the battery life of w800 which i have sucks. so ppl try not to listen to music with that phone cuz so the battery can last longer. and what about w900's battery?

  • Had this one for 12+ months; a brilliant product. At my most extensive usage ever, battery still lasted 4 days. (Hard to see how someone isn�t satisfied). Cord of the HPM-70 stereo phones isn�t very durable, but take good care and the sound quality is magnificent. 2MP camera and 512MB space is more than enough�LED diode is extremely handy. I left it On once for 3+ hours, only took about 10% of battery, despite its strength.

  • The best mobile there is! Everything is excellent! Battery life, photo quality, sound quality, size, weight, everything! I have had it for an year and a half and no complaints whatsoever! Still haven't seen a better one!

  • ur right!!! this phone is the best i've ever had.! the battery is great, it takes more than 300 shots 4 me using the camera, and only 10% of the bat is lost. unlike my cnventional digital camera, the battery is so low.

  • I'm disappointed with curtis' opinion re the w800i. For anyone considering the phone please note I have had the phone for 18 months and with moderate phonecalls an hour or two a day and several texts a day the battery lasts me approx 4 entire days. Yes if you play music the battery life drops but this would be the same for any device!

  • First, this phone lasts 24hrs, and no where near the 400hrs stated! as soon as you use the music player your battery drops by 5-10%. simply the worst battery life of any phone ive ever had. I also find that even when you delete songs they continually return to the walkman player! Far too slow in general. Not the best sony ericsson by a long way!

  • soe games of nokia phone are compatible w/ w800, i try it already... u can download free games in www.mobile9.com, a lot of nice 3d games u can choose, use mozilla firefox in downloading, it doesnt work in internet explorer sometimes.

  • last one year i am using the phone it is very good except battery back-up. any body tell 1GB memory card how much cost and the phone will support for the 1GB.

  • this phone is a pile of crap the mp3 softwear always turns the phone off and then the camera button brakes off and when you try to update the phone it wont work it runs really slow they get scratched easly not a mechanics phone gets dirty to easy jog dial goes in them so they stop working when you put the phone in your pocket you knock the camera button so it turns the camera on even if the phone is locked early ones do the same on the mp3 buttons to be quiet honest its the worst phone ive ever had im going back to my old samsung d500 lol

  • Hi one month back i purchased W810i mobile. It is having excellent features when compare with other mobiles. But what my question is can i install real player software for my mobile?

  • Hi All My Friends Have got my W800i WALKMANPhone It is a Great Phone For My Sallary. It Is ot Only a Phone It Have a best Camera And Music Player. It is a Great. But Sound Is Not Loudly for Ext.Speaker But It Have a Quality Sound.

  • the camera is great, it replace my 3megapixel dgital camera(aeptic digicam) 1 thing i like most is its lowlight sensitvity, i test it in a total darkness, in my room and d basement parking...using its built in led flash + nightmode, it really works!!

  • thanks mac for ur comments but would u pls tell me about the camera, does it have a flash? what about the zoom and quality of pics? can it replace adigital cam?

  • w800 is louder, but if u adjust d built in speakr into the highest power...8 affect d sound quality, but the sound qualty of the speakr(accesories) is superb!! loud and clear

  • 8 doesnt hav a real player, i try to install a mp4 video player on my phone but 8 did not work, what i did is that i only download high quality 3gpp video same with the mpeg quality, but d memory 4 8 is massive. the sound quality is excilent!!! i thought @ 1st time the LOUDSPEAKER volume can't be adjust anymore, thru adjusting the EQUALIZER: VOICE, BASS, TRIBLE, NORMAL...D volume increase...

  • can this phone play audio files with WMA extensions? does this phone have much spftware progs like Nokia has? hope to hear ur replies

  • what are the content of it;s original box

  • this opinion concern to d man says "i will not use sony ericsson anymore"...will, i guese d phone that u bought is not a genuine sony ericsson or it does not undergoe quality control or inspection. if someone WANT TO BUY A NEW SONY ERICSSON, MAKE SURE THAT THE PRODUCT IS ORIGINAL. A LOT OF CHINA PHONE LOOKS LIKE SONY ERICSSON.

  • 34mb is the internal memory, im using 256mb in my w800, approximately I manage to load up to 70 songs, depending on the size of the song. usually 4mb. using 1gigabyte may load up to 250 songs...i guese.

  • erm, can i ask how big is the memory of this phone? im thinking of buying it and i want to make sure that i can store a lot of songs in it.

  • I bought this phone in Sept 2005. Within the 1st year warranty period, I have it repaired for 4-6 times, each time with a new problem, like auto-switching to camera mode, no sound, no vibration. Outside the warranty period for 2 months, new problem is flash by it's own. The Co. request for a repairing fee. I won't be a user for Sony Ericsson any more!

  • is there any casing for this phone??? i want to change the color of my phone, i dont like it...i want black.

  • the camera is so impressive,w/ crispness and clarity, same with the 2egapixel cybershot...the only problem with the camera 8 doesnt have fast shatter speed. when u move while shoting, 8 makes the pic blurry. the video is pixelated, but good in zooming function. i like the megabass of is phone...one thing i hate in my phone is its joistick!!! 8s hard to navigate due to dust.

  • I think this phone sounds so good but really I have some inquiries about it: 1- The camera is it of cyber-shot type or ordinary one, I mean is it the same like that housed in K550? 2- About video-playing, is it capable of playing videos perfectly, meaning that it can play back and forward in the same video file? 3- Is there anyway to play Real player media on that phone? Sorry if these questions sound silly but I really want to know about that phone before buying it. Thanks alot

  • I bought this phone when it first came out, so I've been using it for more than a year now. It's just been an extremely wondering and darling phone to use. It's well rounded, very capable, and does everything I want and need; so even though it's old I don't feel it's lacking at all. It's very user-friendly and flexible. I've also dropped it (even while walking) quite a few times and it survived brilliantly with only a few tiny scratches. And to answer the question earlier, it does have flight mode.

  • Dear all, W800 i is One of the best phones that i have used. Prior to this i had used 10 different cell of different companies as i wanted to have the best out of all. Currently i am using this cell for the past 11 months with out any second though of changing it. Thank u

  • this phone is horriable, i repeatt do not buy this phone, the signal is so bad. and its slow and the joint stick dosnt work very well

  • which one sounds better w800 and w810, i have read opinions and i m confused, plz advice i m bout to buy 810.

  • soy ericsson is one of the best phone i like most.can i order for it.

  • hi. gud phone. using it fr the past 1 yr. cam n music at its best. battery like is also gud. runs fr 3 to 4 days fr me. overall more than satisfied.........

  • does anyone have 2GB memory stick ?? please,answer me if there are problems with it because I need to know before I bought it

  • very good phone. Quite impressed. Please send me the definitions of the features. Example: what does infrared mean or pixels etc. thanks

  • Does This Phone Have Flight MOde?

  • Hi Guys,if u like clear quality music/cam/video phone then W800i is a superb machine. I've used my W800i for 5 months now with no problem. I experienced the freezing problem @ d initial stage but not again after formating n upgrading d memory stick. I wish that the battery life is improved to take care of MP3 play time from phone direct. W800i is indeed a walkman. Go for it n make sure u buy original brand.

  • hmm I have w800i and i think that this is very good phone but i have it from last summer and i will bye another one and it will be Nokia N73 :]

  • Everything above the phone is superb only, that the battery run down easiy simila problem with all sonyericsson phones.

  • My w800i speaker sound was very low whenever playing mp3 or ringing...how could i make it be louder? However, i love dis fon much!!!Sony Ericsson u'r da best... love u forever

  • i'm thiking about getting this phone...but I don't know that this phone take memory up to 1 or 2 gb? can anyone answer me?

  • Well what can i say! ive got this phone and its really good, apart from the design of the handset. The sound and picture quality is very good. I had the K750i and i had to charge it atleast twice a day. With the w800 all i do is charge it once and it lasts me all day. Iam always on the mp3 before and after work. My overall to this phone is 95%

  • I've been using this phone about a yr already and everything still seem ok to me. But there are one thing that i dun really like is the battery run out so fast. And hope that will solve in the future.

  • I got this fone in april last year, had no problems!! untill one time i tried puttin a song from my computer onto the fone and it seemed 2 wipe EVERYTHING off it, pictures songs everything, and i dont know why because i had done it before and it was fine. im now looking to get a new phone but really dont know what! any1 know of any good suggestions? thanx xxxx

  • When i transfer songs from pc to mobile using file manager,it transfers smoothly.But the moment when i try to unplug it from mobile ,my pc restarts.I also reinstalled pc suite.But its not working.Please someone help me!! Thanks in advance...

  • I've had this phone for just over a year now and I still love it! The little orange joystick rubber hasn't fallen out (fingers crossed it won't). All you have to do to make sure it doesn't fall apart and have electronic freak outs is to love it enough not to throw it around and to always carry out regular software updates...

  • i cannot believe the amount of good comments about this phone i had three replacement phones and gave up trying was under contract and got fed up with company saying we'll fix it, worst phone i've ever had turns itself off randomly, sound dissapears when you answer phone so all there is is silence, turns itself onto silent mode, joystick select and up functions never work, amber thing on joystick does fall off i've finally finished my year and can upgrade and have never been happier to change phones i do not know one person who has not had trouble with this or the k750. i wouldnt take a sony ericson for free, think i'll go for a motorola, from experience they're much less hassle.

  • hi to all can anyoneone tell me about the camera capabilities of this phone and also if this thone is better than w810

  • Does w800 support 4GB memory stick? Please tell me if you know :P ty

  • i bought this phone one year ago. the major problem accured on the camera cover. the phone on the camera automatically eventhought the cover was closed. until now, no one can figure out what had happend. other than this, i also feel the talking/mp3 hour for this phone is short. storage for inbox message is very limited, always show message full warning. video time also very limited, only 1 minute. can someone tell me why? I hope SE will improve this phone, bcz this is very good mp3 plus camera phone.

  • *READ*! *READ*!! *READ*!!! I bought this phone on the 30th November, 2005 at Lagos State, Nigeria, West Africa. Ever since, there has been no serious problem till 24th December last year. The problem I'm having is that "my Phone has refuse to on, when I switch it off to change SIM Card." I took it to ROYLLINE TECHNOLOGIES LTD, at Uyo in Akwa Ibom State since that's where is closer to me. They say "The Phone has Software problem and it needs to be Flash from a Computer." I refuse that cos my files will all get erased and the Phone will function again OR the Phone get damage for Life. I later took it to Calabar in Cross River State; the Technician says "It's Power IC and CPU problem." After giving him Days to fix it, he now inform me that he as try brand new Power IC and CPU, but to his surprise the phone just refuses to work. To him, the phone is okay but he can't just place the problem. When the Phone's switch on, the screen will just light up and goes blank. Nothing to display. I'M REALLY CONFUSED AND I NEED HELP SOON BEFORE SOMEONE GET MY PHONE SPOIL BY TRYING TO REPAIR IT. WORST, THERE'S NO SONY ERICSSON CUSTOMER CENTRE CLOSE BY ME THAT I'M AWARE OF. PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I NEED YOUR HELP. Please contact me on +234806-956-3119 or +234802-868-8345 or my email address. I'll be very very Grateful. Thanks a million, Happy new Year.

  • The volume of the person talking to me during a call is soo sooo low now a days in my w 800i... what shall i do to improve it???

  • how do you use the voice command for the contacts? i think it's used for voice dialing but i don't know how to dial with my voice... or whatever command its purpose is. thanks... email [email protected]

  • I have used W700i and K750i currently using W810i which I think is the best among the 3, well if you want a walkman functions go for W800i or W700i, W800i has autofocus while W700i doesnt hav, both take good pix though and nice mp3 player. cheeeeeeeeers

  • I hav had this fone for bout 10 months now....never had any problem wit it other than it restarts sometimes wen i change themes or play some music file.....and to say bout the orange rubber on top the joystick....its still der....even after xtensive use of the joystick.....now thats amazing

  • it jus looks beauiful u dnt need n ipod.da fnez a disco buy what u want....u wnt get nything betta den dis...u get me

  • How many messages can is store in my inbox......i always get "too many messages in your inbox"... is there a way i can move all the messages into a folder........ thanks, kris

  • with what converter should i convert aac files to put them into the phone ?'cause i convert them i the phone does't recgnoise them

  • when I send amr files using bluetooth the mobile freezes and I found that the mobile becomes slow when I play it... Does any one have this problem, please tell me

  • does w800 playing video in fullscreen like k750?

  • Hi i had this phone for about 8 months. There were 2 problems was that the rubber orange thing on the joystick fell off and when i put some new songs on and went to the walkmode and clicked on tr4acks and clicked ona a new track the phone would restart itself and come back on again. If u have any problems like this is to either get the phone flashed or delete the songs and put them back on again. but overall the phone was brilliant.

  • this is for all those people who want to buy a w810i leavin this phone...................... i think it is the baddest idea because the w810 has a lower speaker vol than this and thr is no diff in the workin of the phones yeah a point to accept is that thew810 is an edge phone and it looks better than this phone because of its black panel and the battery life of this phone is practically more than the w810i's so i think the phone is just gr88 and the walkman effect is better than the ipod too

  • the most perfect fone, except that it doesnt have 3g and it comes in only one color. and the message tone is only 10 seconds.

  • ya k800 is also nice phone! cos it have 3.2 mp camera but it cant beat A (WALKMEM)800I and i think that 2mp camera is also clear that i think then y buy k800i.

  • hi guyz wats up i am about to buy this product but i need to know is the sound of this phone in its in built speakers is better than w550 or it low not in hands free but in its in built speakers .......

  • I've had quite a few Sony Ericsson phones in my time and i have always been pleased with them. I wasnt going to get this handset as i had my sights set on the Nokia N91, but since the release date was set back in the UK and i was in need of an upgrade I liked the look of this and went for it! And i was pleasantly surprised. It has all the little features that u can think of (long texts, T9, MMS, speaker phone, flash, calendar, alarm etc etc) and all the major ones too (512 Mem card, bluetooth, infrared, 2 Megapix Camera, Video) and not to mention the awesome walkman features and the sound quality that comes from it. U cannot go wrong with this phone. The W850i is now released here in the uk and it looks as though it's gonna be another hit too!!

  • Can anyone tell me how to format or restore phone setting and not memory stick pls. Thanks very much

  • Siraj...I agree what u say...I always tell my fren not to buy Ipod...is very expensive not worth it...cuz W800i can do better ...!!!:)

  • the phone is just gr888 it is wow i have had many phones with me but i think this is one of the best the songs can be played at a higher level of sound wen the k750i's ear phones r used..

  • Does anyone know how to set video mode to record as long as we want? The phone is default for 10 seconds that is god damn SHORT.

  • this phone is the grate music phone and remember that music never dies so go on if u want to buy this phon

  • (no comments) this phone is gr8 i compared this phon with ipod and ithink this phon is more clear than a ipod!

  • Erm..I know the K800i is better but price different!! I hav both W800i and K800i..but W800i hav a better Music function..I mean w800i can produce a better file manager for music!!!

  • HI, this is a better phone than w800i. The quality of the keys is better the loudness of sound is more and the phone all together is better. Its really a good phone to use. Its better than nokiaN70, as compared to sound and picture quality.

  • it is amazing!! best phone ever!

  • i don't like the speakers or headset. hurts my ears and can't hear well. if you want to get this phone, i think you should get the k800 then. that phone holds 1GB memory and clear on both speakers and bluetooth. the welcome screen is much prettier and so does the camera/videos :)

  • ya the joy stick kinda sucks, its not that good. but it will work properly when u give the phone some rest, and that's what i did to make it better. also, dont use the phone for about 1-2 days like not using the joy stick

  • ive had this fone for bout 7 months...luv it in n out...never goes out of fashion...and is the most unique fone....if u guys hav ne q's....mail me at>>>>[email protected] ill be glad to help..after all im a sony lover..all sony users r welcum...i strictly condemn nokia..ahaha....cheers

  • im very happy with my w800i. im gonna get w900i 12-13 more days!!

  • Hi ive had the w800i for about 1year. Its a great phone. the camera is brilliant for a phone but when u zoom in the pictures gets pixilated but the walkman feature is brilliant but the problems i had was the joy stick. The orange rubber thing in the middle of the joystick came of and cant get a replace ment and i had trouble with the software so be worn plus mine is in mint condition because i kept a plastic case on it and ive still got the orginal clear sticker on the screen.

  • man that mobile is amazyng i have a k750 i hes good but the w800i hold the battery more 34mb+memorycard wow its amazyng just one thing is bad on the w800i .....the display is to little

  • Fantastic fone i jus got it really loud.Tip : to make even louder go on walkman then the equaliser put the first two bars to the top and the 3rd one until the colour is yellow and the rest to the top sound even louder!!!!!!! one problem when i did get this phone the SanDisk mem card didnt work so i got a new one always get a SONY mem card the SanDisk ones usually break and they cost �10 to get a new one from the company where they are made. The camera is fantastic. Best SE phone ever this is better than w810i because w810i is much quiter. I recommend anyone to buy it you will be amazed i have had it for a 2 weeks just love it

  • Question - Which is more nicer fone ROKR E1 or SE W800? Question - How can i upgrade the itunes of rokr so i can place more than 50 songs? and where?

  • I have been using this phone since an year and the only problems which appear from my side for this phone are ... 1. the orange thingy on the joystick falls off after few weeks/months usage. 2. the joystick becomes hard and there is always chance of the joystick to give problems.. most of my sonyericsson sets joysticks get ruined. 3. it restarts alot ... 4. camera is slow, camera sound comes first and then picture is taken .. usually pics come blurred. 5. If u connect to computer then some files get copied and some dont. And sometimes after removing from computer the memory gets formatted automaticallly. I have been using this phonesince an year but still to tell u the truth .. I love this phone .. its got all the things i need .. some problems are there .. but still a great phone ... I dont regret buyin it

  • W800I is a sweet phon i m using this phon for 1 year i also have 550i i campared both phon and i think w800i is the best and love this phon REALY

  • I had this phone for more than a year.. and planned to keep this phone for a much longer time.. sad part is it got stolen! jeez.. but this was the best phone I ever had! and I'm planning to buy another one! [or at least another walkman phone..] It takes great pictures! better than first few nokia Nseries.. it doesn't freeze[well, not much]. very user friendly. easy to transfer files from pc to phone and other way around. my joystick didn't have problems except for the orange thingy that slipped off.. sounds were great! though speakers were not loud enough, I enjoyed it thru my earphones.. 512mb free mem card was enough for me.. I can put around 400+ songs already in it by changing quality in my pc, but when transferred to my phone, it still sounds great! or I had 300+ songs and it still had enough for 100+ games!!! my boyfriend bought w810 and I found my w800i much easier to use, specially in file manager part... all in all this phone is awesome! PICTURES, SOUNDS, GAMES, MESSAGING, DOWNLOADS, and even the DESIGN. really the best phone! should be about 98%!!!! ;p

  • I`ts mostly the best phone i ever have...i don`t have many problems with him,just because i lost my headset hendsfree:P and it costed me a lot of money to get aother hendsfree original.And i have a little problem with the charging,i have to close the phone to charge the battery

  • Re christian Here is a list of differences: W800: TRI-BAND, internal memeory 34MB, memeory stick upgrade to 2GB, dimensions = 100 x 46 x 20.5 mm W810: QUAD-BAND, internal memeory 20MB, memory stick upgrade to 4GB, dimensions = 100 x 46 x 19.5 mm, have mega-bass function All others; camera, weight, display, etc. are the same. So basically, you can say that the W810 is a better phone.

  • very good sound output. comfortable key pad good features but poor color and material used

  • this phone is good. i had it for almost a year. anyways the orange tip on my joystick fell off and also it sometimes freezes on me and i would have to turn it off.

  • I've had my W800i for almost a year [i bought it 10 Jan this year] & this is my first time using Sony Ericsson. This thing is absolutely awesome,never hanged [well, one or twice but never as frequent as the one I used to hav, N3230], still very responsive, the sound is amazing, pictures are great [even for posting in my blog], sending MMS is quick, this phone is actually a magic :) but only 1 thing bugs me, when we try 2 find names in contacts, we can't simply find the name with two first alphabets, eg: When I try 2 find Mary, all I can do is press MNO keypad instead of pressing M and A, so it took longer to get there. Another thing, this seri doesn't have facility 2 find out duration of our calls, just the time when calls were made. Above all, this thing is nothing but EXCELLENCE.. Cheers!!

  • The w800i comes in a pack that includes the memory card, cable, headphones, and more. What does the k800 pack include? please answer...because I've ordered the phone and I'm getting it in 2 weeks and I want to be sure if I have to buy the memory card myself or not. ----------- by the way, the w800 is a very nice phone, and I think it should have better vote results. It is just A BIT worse than K800.

  • This phone simply rocks... I've had it for 6 months now with little troubles. I have a 4GB Memory Stick and it is the best!! I have well over 700 songs, 75 videos (5 full length movies) and still have enough memory to take a lot of pics. For those who don't know, you have to resize the video to 176x144 pixels for it to be viewable on the phone. The drawback is when there is a lot of action it will freeze for a while and then catch up. You may want to record it at an even lower resolution (it is possible). Overall, very happy with it and I plan to get the k790 which is similar but has a 3.2 megapixel camera!

  • hey hicham maybe it's da problem of ur battery but i'm not sure. sony ericsson is myfone too, i have a lot of fone sony ericsson w800i,nokia 5300,sony ericsson,sony ericsson w810i and da nokia 6260. THNX!!!!!

  • Hicham, I am assuming the music is on the memory STICK DUO PRO and that the music file is either MP3, ACC, WAV (note: not all wav can play) Try this: (1) Turn off phone, (2) remove your memory stick, (3) Turn on without memory and choose start phone (make sure it is highlighted yellow), (4) Play any ringtone and confirm there is sound, (5) Turn off phone, (6) Insert memory, (7) Turn on and choose start phone (make sure it is highlighted yellow) give a minute before pressing any key (8) try playing the music Let me know the result and also if problem persists let me know how u transfer music to your phone

  • To answer some of the common questions: (1)My carrier for this phone is T-Mobile. (2)I bought this phone at buy.com (compare prices with newegg.com,circuitcity,com etc.) (3)Cingular is offering it for about $100 with plan (free after rebate). (4)Videos must be in .mp4 or .3gp (google softwares keywords: convert to mp4, 3gp,media converter,video converter etc) email me for other questions (I know lots of tricks about this phone)

  • can any one explain how to get music videos on the phone? i don't understand.

  • hi when my phone is in my pocket it keeps turning off.can any one help?

  • I've had the w800 for about 6 months and up until recently it's been a mess. I love the size, the camera, and the features. What has made me regret this mobile is the firmware. My mobile kept freezing when switching apps. and when I would recharge it, it wouldn't ring unless I turned the mobile off then on. If this is happening to you, download the newest firmware from SonyEricsson website. You'll need a comm. cable. Ever since I did this I love my mobile again.

  • Got the phone last year. Nice orange color---could use a larger screen & faster start up. Camera takes good pictures but is slow.

  • Just got this phone recently.And i just have one word for it,Extraordinary! Im a hardcore nokia lover eventhough i made decision to go for w800 & my decision was not wrong.Camera is superb compared to n91 & the music player is brilliant and almost same like n91 and also theres no match from any brand for Mega Bass.It'll just blow u away ...

  • A good phone. Excellent pictures and sound but occassionally hangs. Sometime loses sound and hangs when alternating between silent and normal modes. Would be nice if the radio worked without the headphones as an aerial via the speaker.

  • Depending on where you purchase the W800i, it can range from 12,000 Php to 20,000 Php. I suggest you canvas all the shops (particularly at Cyberzone) to find a good deal. You'll thank yourself for it and save money too.

  • Subba, Are you trying to open .pdf files "about the phone" or "in the phone"? If it's the latter, you most definitely CAN'T! Only smart-phones have .pdf support. Do your research man! Haha!

  • it is the worst mobile i have ever used. it gets haged every minute

  • I have this phone for 7 months . Its just too good. If you in doubt in buying a phone, dis is the one u should go for you...im telling u.

  • this phone is cool im getting it its madddddd

  • just covert ure videos to .3gp fpormat. it doesn't play any other formats.

  • i need to open .pdf files on W800i. how can this be done? thanks, Subba

  • In order to play Video Music or Video, you should have convert video files to MP4 or 3gp extension. Then, transfer video files to Media/video folder in the memory stick through the software came with the phone. If you copy file from computer direct to memory stick through card reader. IT WON'T WORK!!!.If you have any question feel free to email me

  • WOW! Don't think, just buy it! My best phone at the present moment, everything is just PERFECT! Music is delightful, the screen is clear and brighter, the body is robust, I just have no more words!

  • man i hav ths phone......its really cool but d sad part is i cant play any videos and da phones not workin as gud as i thought....quite sad feels like NOKIA is always adaptable to the user always be it software,music or user friendly options.... well now i realise tht aftr using ths phone theres just 2 cool things about it. 1.the HEADPHONES it simply rocks!!! 2.Camera its awesome the rest sucks!!!!!!!

  • convert first your videos and songs

  • Everything of this phone is good...but i still cant play any videos in it. I mean music videos and other videos i put into this doesnt work. Is there any kinda software to install into my w800 to make it play mpeg or mpg videos????PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

  • This phone is fantastic, with a 2Gb card it's better than an ipod and last twice as long, The camera is great for a 2Mp, stores alot of SMS, the only thing that lets it down was the fact it would wipe the music of itself if you used the usb cable to add music. Just get a memory card reader "Sorted"

  • i had this phone for like..8 months..and it's dead already

  • Edel... No offence... U can change the file name only after you tranfer those pictures of your to another folder... It means that your pic must not be in the "camear picture" folder.

  • I've had this phone for over a year now, got it as soon as it came out, & I've really no complaints. The thing that annoys me though is that you can't name your pictures, oh & it does sometimes turn itself on & off but I guess that's to be expected when you drop it daily! ha. But it is a v good phone.

So I have to return the phone back to my dealer/SE for repair. And it has been over 6 weeks. They still haven't send me my phone back. Very disappointed!!

  • yes the phone can surport mp4 =)

  • I`ve w800 and I think it`s very good mobile phone.It has too much memory and the sound from the handsfree is just perfect.

  • It looks really cool and it seems to have a lot of great comments. But I've also heard that SE phones eventually have a problem with their charging mechanisms, as in the phone won't charge. Is that 'cause of the battery, the charger or the phone itself? Am also wondering if the camera has the Burst feature, like it takes 4 shots at once? Please let me know! Thanks

  • well i have found the w800i music capability to be fantastic like thass' awareness and ability. although a slight problem is the d900 is not a music phone as it is a pretender like shibb pretends to play football. the music like shibb is wanting more effort. the camera shines on the handset but it needs to prove itself like how shibb and milner team up against thass only then can they attempt to challenge him.

  • hey there!!my name is Ced and i got this handset about 6 year ago when it was ok, but me been a fool signed for a 12 year contract for an extra txt per month now i cant u/g to shibbys D900 any advice??plus any advice how to stop shibby??

  • I just got my SE W800i as a gift from my dad and I totally love it!! The best thing I like about the phone is its appearence - the deep metallic orange looks even better in real life than on a computer screen. And its features are awesome...as a total music freak, it's just perfect for me. I've put it on charging now, and can't wait to actually start using it...I'm thinking of skipping school tomorrow, to be honest...I'm that excited ;)

  • I have recently baught w800i.It is seriously showing me it's outstanding performance.Every feature is excellent but it is troublesome to me to hear when I call some one in a noisy place.Furthermore,I am not getting the battery perfomance very well as mentioned in the feature of this one.I'll be oblized if any one informs me about the charging process.

  • Yo everyone. I will like to purchase the w800, but i want to know if the tezt message alert cuts off. Can some one please telll me?! Email me at [email protected], Please, ass soon as possible.

  • Hello. I have downloaded W800i software off.. the se official site and.. when i install the pc Suite it has error but. i already installed the.. update program for it .. what shall i do?? Thanks ..

  • Y this phone has been discontinued? it shudnt hav bin cuz it has great quality camera nd sound which equals ipod's or even better!

  • @Sid Y not? if ur using R1BC002 sure u can search it tat way....

  • you can find name "john" in contact list pressing first "j" then "o" i.e u can limit the search

  • message memory is very very very low

  • contact list is not so efficient, as if you wanna find name "john" you can only press J and press down to look for that name. i expect we can press J then O then H to limit down the names but it can't. so i suggest for user who need or have lots of contact list better don't buy this phone. IS THERE ANY REMEDY TO THIS RPOBLEM. 2. How many sms can this phone store. Can we store the sms's in the Memory stick?

  • This is still the BEST phone with the best 2 Megapixel camera on the market ! It also has the best sound of all the mobile junkies in the world. If only they can boost this fellow with a better screen and replace the joystick with something more comfy - it will definately be the TOP SELLER once again !!!!!!!!!

  • I am using w800i for 6 months . It is really excellent phone with good performance . headset's quality is good , and it has strong battery . accessing from PC is very simple and fantastic . you can do everything from Computer . It's really good . :)

  • The W800i is the one you need now ! It has a fantastic loud speaker for your mp3, easy access menu and the appearance of the phone stand out of crowd !The battery last long enough and has a very good camera compare to Nokia !!! Well done Sony Ericsson !!!

  • Haiiiiiiii everyone. I used dis fone for 6 month, n believe me w800i are da best fone ever made! The digital sound n camera quality is da best in the market! Look out da ringtones sound, very2 powerful n sharp! Thanks Sony Ericsson for ur best made fone. And now I buy K800i as my second Sony Ericsson legend`s killer phone!!! SONY ERICSSON ROCKS DA WORLD OF MOBILE!!!!!;)

  • to clayton u say which camera and sound is better w800 or d 600?

  • to zakossini..u know the most thing i admire in sony w800 is its color..it is realy pretty.just handle it between ur hands and u ll c

  • d only disadvantage i c in SE model W800 is in d monopolistic color in which it was made,which is d white and orange color making it unattractive.....more colrs should b produced

  • hi all. the w800 is truely a great fone. i also experience it restarting by itself but think it's caused by overloading. my girlfriend has a d600 and this fone is way better.the camera is excellent and the sound quality with the earphones is superb. if your looking for a entertainer then this is the fone for u! p.s i am sending this msg from my w800i. just wish it had 3g or edge at least.

  • to ADRIAN WOW... they are not the same.. W810 has a better display.. with more vivid colours... But better displays requires more energy... as a result, the battery of the W800 lasts longer... The Specifications says the display are the same.. but this is not exact.. For example, compare the E398's(now known as E1) display (according to specs, 65K colours) with the 265K colours of the W800... You won't believe me but the E398 colours are more vivid, bright and attractive... image looks much better... But anyway... W800 have been discontinued...

  • to Leigh_09 They are officially identical, the on;y differences are the interface, the casing and the name... But all the hardware inside is the same... The W800 is a K750 with much better earphones and a 512Mb memory. In a more trendy shell with lots of WALKMAN logo printed on it... But howerer, i've noticed that the speaker of the w800 are louder... I'm happy to be a w800 owner... Nice Phone...

  • just asking, because i have my new phone, SE K750i, what's the difference between k 750i and w800i?? can anyone plz tell me...thanx...=)

  • i have this phone for 3 months and i do not have any problem with it.the handsfree phones are excelent and they give have a magnific sound.the photos ar great,you can compare them with a profesional camera photos.i'm very pleased with this phone.buy it if you have the chance,if not buy a w810i.it is the same.

  • Does anyone know how to get WAP 2.0 browser in w800i. When I tried to hit a server with my device, it says WAP 1.0

  • To rachel, No offence, ok... But, LG phones is only good gor looks.I got a friend of mine owned the LG KG800. From what I heard from him, Its UI is rather slow, but still acceptable... Mp3 s only on the moderate level... No card slot... Super laggy camera... Horrible video player... But rather good for conversation level... A bit annoying for typing sms as the whole message cancelled once u accidentally touch the "C" button... And u named it...dust, fingerprint and whatever sticks to the so-called touch panel surface.... If u like glossy slide phone so much, check only samsung E900 then... Plz note... this is only my friend feedback... On the other hand, I would say w800 is syill the better choice. Yet, the choice is yours.

  • I have my W800 for about 6months now and it hasnt given me any problems,given it has falen from me 6 times!! If the fone is restarting on its own, u need to update is software by going onto www.sonyericsson.com. It is sure to work for u!! Enjoy

  • HI! I've had my phone for almost a year now, however, I'm running into a problem. I'm trying to connect via Bluetooth w/other phones at the office, however, when I'm having an incoming file, no matter what it is (picture, note, audio file etc) I don�t get the other Phone's Bluetooth name that's sending the file. I've seen Nokia phones DO show this, but is there a problem w/my W800 or is it just SE phones that don�t have this cappability? Hope anyone can answer. thanks!

I wish it could play lossless format like lossless AAC // And the moment you turn on the walkman feature theres a hissing sound in the background and the music is accompanied by noise in the background.. And at low volumes (like late night listening) u got a lot of hissing sound in the background, thats a big turn off for this phone.. Sony!! are you listening??? Been using this phone for 10 months now..Just becoz of this phone I bought Senheisser CX300 in earplug, but I think I need to go for standalone MP3 Player, this walkman turned my ear down...

  • I bought this handphone 6 months ago.Everything going well except 4 the battery.My phone battery didn't even last 2 days on standby even when i'm not using it.That is far from the claimed 400 hours of standby time. I complained this to the distributor in my are and they gladly change my battery FOC, but still the new battery won't last more tha 2 days. I need to know if there is someone who have the same problem with me.

  • Hi,I am the user of SE W800i, i bought it 5 months ago..this phone is fantastic. SE W800i can support 3D games and application in jar files(j2me), video in 3gp & mp4 files. Some of the video you can't view.. don't worry, you can convert it to 3gp files. I love SE W800i themes, we can create our own theme, when i saw my own theme,it satisfied me a lot :). I have 3gp converter,SE Themes Creator, Blutooth remote control software, Games & Application. If you want to sharing with me, messages me at www.mofaidz.8m.com.

  • i would like to know what kind of speakers can be connected to W800...i have creative 2.1 channel speaker...will it go with W800 or is it too heavy for the phone.

  • i have had the phone for 3 weeks and its the best phone around. i took pictures in a club that no other phones could have done. I play the radio all day and the battery meter dont even budge!

  • I was Nokia biggest fan until last week.Now iam a WALKMAN ;)

  • plz. i will like to know if w800 can be conected to a car stereo.thanx.

  • I suggest to all SE User, Switch off you phone while charging to avoid battery life getting shorter or spoilt easily.

  • I was looking forward to the SE MXE-60 xenon camera flash.I wonder if does the flash works on 2 megapixel resolution. Please tell me by posting it in here if you have one.. Sorry for my bad english..

  • I've bad english.. I've had this phone 5 months ago...It was a really great phone. But i have a problem that's the camera light. It's too bright when I was taking a picture of myself in a low light area.. I hurts my eye. I probally sugest if the w800 camera light can just have a quick flash. But one day, when i was switching on the light(not in camera mode),the light blink and suddenly it went off.. I went to the camera mode and switched on the light...The light icon shows its on but there is no light showing up..I took a picture and there is a light showing up. There is no low light and just only the brighter one showing up.I like that but one bad thing thats there is no light for normal use.At last I have to send my w800 to the repair centre and get my low light back...

  • hi i'd like to get either the w810i or the w800i, but i am undecided as to which performs better in terms of battery life and user-friendliness. Wondering if users can fill me in on the downside of these fones... heard that the joystick gets spoilt rather quickly for both fones. And also, does w800i support 2GB Memory Stick Duo Pro like w810i does?? thanks :)

  • This is the best phone according to me.Bluetooth is wonderful,battery life is the best.Another good thing is that u can listen to ur MP3 files without turning on the"phone".Camera is SURELY a force to reckon with.Am a really good reViewer and believe me,this is the best fone.All this and i dont even own one,that even reassures u the its a winner.Memory is wonderful.The only flaw according to me is one of the boring games,they could have borrowed from K750's Aero..3D.If someone is out there that wants to send me the phone,my add is:17566-00100 Nairobi,Kenya.Noel Maximus.Thanks SE.Mad love

  • I bought ur Phone 3 months ago and think is a very good phone. My only problem is with the battery capacity. I think it should be increased.

  • i love my w800, but here are some problems i have experienced with it: 1. the battery life. it lasts only for two days if i don't use the walkman or the radio, and less than a day if i listen to it. and hello, this is supposed to be a walkman. 2. everytime i download music files into my phone, a problem occurs. it's either the download process didn't work or only some of the mp3 files were downloaded. 3. sometimes when i download music the phone mysteriously shuts off and then restarts again. can anybody help me with these problems?? i love my phone, but it's only been a week since i bought it and it already has flaws.

  • i need help for some reason my buttons (namely tha c, return and the other 2 on top of them) stopped working it happened before but an hour later everything was ok

  • how to check phone version? please

  • Hi, I am looking for a new phone and ive narrowed it down to W800i and LG KG320. everything sounds just perfect about this phone except for the joystick. does it really get damaged that easily?

  • i've had w800i for about six months now,in those xix months i've had nokia n80,n91,and a few other smartfones but at the end of the day i always come back to this fone love it. i wonder if the w850i will be worth the upgrade?

  • Hey people, I have had the w800i for about 1year, at the start not a single problem.. slowly with time it starts playing up. I have another 3 friends who are experiencing the same problems as ive had myself. I have upgraded to the w810i and have had that for a while now.. touch wood not 1 little problem at all til now. The main problem on the w800i was the joystick! I was thinking of getting a k800i but dont want to go thru the same things i had with the w800i, the w800i prob is a little bit louder then the w810i on loud speaker.. but the w810i is surely a winner overall. Its just the upgraded version of a w800i :) doesnt really take a genious to figure that one out. so if ur not sure about the w800/w810i.. i recommend you dont think twice about the w810i.

  • Mido: for Windows to recognise your phone, you have to install some drivers. You should have a CD that came with the phone with them. Cheers!

  • Hey everybody, I own a W800 for about 4 months now and everything is great about it except one thing: the button which uncovers the lens and starts the camera is very sensitive and it starts ramdomly in my pocket. Anybody else got the same problem? Thanks, Chelu

  • Hi..... I have this mobile 5 months ago and it is a very good mobile in every thing.

But in the earphone the sound is very clear. Could anyone help me or tell me if this problem happen to him ?........... Thanks........

  • truely this is one of the best phones by SE. i love it. got the W810i and this W800i, looks great with a new housing

  • About the photos or pictures UPLOADED from PC to Phone... there are lots of compression of pics from net or others... therefore... you need to set it to the compression that the phone recognizes... i've verified this... and the simplest way to do that is... ta da: you need to open Paint... open the file... and Save it again... i used save as... then overwrite... i dunno if pressing Save only will work... well... another factor to be considered is: ratio of height to width... i have a pic and it is very rectangular... i added white sides using photoshop: canvas size... so i have two files... before the save in paint... i uploaded the two... and none can be zoomed... i saved both in paint... then uploaded... the very rectangular can't be zoomed but i can zoom the one with the white sides... Well, bout the PANORAMA issue... i guess i will just do the same thing... hmm...

  • W800 is better than w810. both phone are the same the only difference is the EDGE of w810. w810 has no camera lens cover and do not have an eye-catching design. The design of W800 was alot more better than W810. W800 rulez. =)
