  • Still in order

  • please can you tell me how can i entre the internet in this kind of mobile pleaaaaaaaase

  • my best friends 2005-2016(11year)

  • It's not a phone. It's a Lovely friend. I have used it about 8 years....

  • Is a good phone :-)

  • i love it , i use it for 7 years

  • i still have this in good working condition. the cable like flex is much durable compared to the ribbon type flex of slider models.

  • I love this phone very much...

  • I use it 8 years! It's the best pfone!

  • After 6 year usage, I'm still fan of this phone... What a sound quality it has... Superb Phone Ever

  • yes! very durable very well made!

  • nice

  • My w900i still working....very durable...the best mobile in world .

  • Best phone ever ! Miss it a lot. When i used to get bored i always kept opening and closing the phone only to hear the sound of the sword. The good old days !!!!

  • Best phone ever still use it got the white & black w900i class

  • It's the best phone ever made and the only Sony with NaVedia mainboard...the best of the best....I miss it alot... And I want it again....and yes it's made in Japan.... That was the best part that I liked about it...

  • I bought it in 2006 and I never had a problem with this phone... I bought also P990 but it has problems with the external/swap keyboard and the quality of the phone is not that good as it is from W900. Now I have HTC Evo 3D, also a nice phone for small budget. The new Xperia T models are verry good, I recommened them :)

  • This fone is so cool. I got it from china and then flashed it with the last firmware available. I had android and apple but theyre not my bag. too much control. im sure this is the best fone ever. the best sound for sure. really full and clear as a bell. wont ever sell this. you can buy it cheap now. all the latest items are just toys with senseless apps that suck away all your credit.

  • i will find you what ever it takes muahahahhahaahhaha wait for me w900

  • I have it since 2005, I found it very good. I have problem with it that it can't store more than 85 sms, whenver there is space in phone/ card memory. Can anybody help me about this matter.

  • Still going strong, I will keep it until it breaks. Love the sound, and the camera is still good!

  • This is about Love... Many phones better, smarter... But She's the Best ever...

  • I have it 6.full years,and it works god like the first day!! It has fallen more then 100 zimes and it works like nothing happend ;) +5 Best phone ever

  • ''Sony Ericsson'' has the bst products in the wrld..... :-D

  • i hav a p990 but its 'weird' design makes me ashamed to use that phone in public i want this phone,what's its price now? well big is best!

  • the best phone ever in the world

  • sony ericsson is a very nice phone

  • Absolutly fully agree with all you say,,bring back this devices and get rid of all these full touchscreen rubbish..

  • It's true that touch screen devices are getting more popularity than those of nontouch screens. I'm always fond of non touch screen devices. I used one of my brother's iPhone 3G. I couldn't satisfied with that and I'm much satisfied with our K550i, K750i, K700i and W200i. My next aim is probably Xperia text pro.

  • i also have this phone.every facilities in it,but i couldn`t find a radi port here

  • I miss this phone too,i had the white version on vodafone UK..I loved everything eve the radio built into the headfone jack,,,oh why dont the bring back button fones with sliders or scissor types like this and clamshells..I HATE THIS TOUCHSCREEN ERA.

  • superquality cameraa

  • Its camera is amazing n clear. It can produce powerful sound. Its size is really big when it is opened. I wonder where to find its casing in Bandung. The legendary sakura walkman phone ever after.

  • The best ever phone. you can not still find any phone like this with loudness and quality of the speaker. when you play the music you can feel the bass of the song and feel the bass in your hand.

  • I've had this phone for 4 years and its AMAZING, cant fault it one bit.. its solid, i've nicknamed it the brick :) the only downside..its quite chunky so its hard to carry, its too big for your pocket.. still ITS AN AWESOME PHONE!

  • By the way, my phone is in black:-) If anyone wants to by it we can work something out

  • Thanks bro:-) I really love this phone and will only sell it to by W995 or xperia2:-) Peace

  • This is one of the best phones that i STILL carry. Using it as a second phone specially when i'm out of the country (had it unlocked). Got this a few months after it came out in the Philippines. Updated the phone through SE's update software - had no problems ever since (it did hang twice or thrice - nothing unexpected). Again, one of the best.

  • the best mobile i ever use for last 10 years

  • I love this phone very much................

  • ups:-) Thanks a lot

  • Tanhks:-)

  • I've bought this phone on ebay! Great phone in excellent condition, powerfull sound, swivel action, fully unlocked, 3D accelerator, etc! Now i'm selling it, because of upgrade, so if somebody is searching for W900i phone in white color: just let me know! e-mail: [email protected] (this is not advertise!!! only for experts!) For Nuno Silva: Here you can find some free themes for your SE: www.esato.com I think some themes will be OK for your W900i. Peace!

  • try www.ownskin.com

  • Hi, Where can I find apps, themes and games for this wonderful machine? Does Google maps work? Thanks

  • Hi, i just bought this phone today and i love it, I was trying to buy for it some time now but in Portugal it ws very expensive:-( until today:-) I'm very happy and i', going to sell my N78 to keep this:-) Peace

  • very good phone.......it is if you have any problm with the signal just pm me at [email protected] and i will gladd to help U.....

  • This phone is good, just like me.....................!

  • I had this phone...past tense...i lost it on my 18th birthday party...that was over 2 months ago and im still depressed. This phone literally was the best phone i have had, and ever will have. Sound quality was crystal clear even though it is twice as loud as other phone, software was brilliant...perfect phone...just wish they would have this with TFT and windows mobile 6 with GPS...but then again, it was perfect as it was

  • Yesss Roocks Phone ever Hiiiiksss.... I drop my W900 and signal gone I Take to Service Centre and they said that they doasnt have spare part for this phone cause the age more than 3 Years Buts its fine I buys G705 for the replacement But Still use W900 for the music, videos, and camera

  • W900 is the best SE phone................

  • i didn't rate it... i'll give him a 9/10

  • I got this phone a few days back...great phone, always wanted it but never had the chance and the money for it until now. actually I traded a w880i for this one...beside the brick size, the phone is awesome...one of the best phones i had including nokia's, lg's, samsung's etc. the best I ever had was k750 and p1i (I still have this one, best buy), after them, this w900i. camera is great, better in still images for k750, much better in video for w900, the sound is almost perfect, the only phone better that I experienced being the w800. My SE experience (i had: k500, k750,k800, k810, w800, w660, w880,p990, p1i,z610) tels me that i made a good choice buying this phone. overall, is the best in walkman series and one of the best compared to k series, better than k800 and k810, but not better than k750. my advice is to take it if you have the chance, another like this one we won't see from SE. I don't think i'll ever sell it, I consider it unique! cheers

  • Big but good................

  • i really love this hp .. the sound was very nice and loud .. and the picture dat been captured was very clear n nice! im still using it till now .. but i want to buy SATIO veryyyy sOoN ! LOVE SE ALWAYS!!!!

  • Very good.....................

  • its only the bst!!!!!!!!!!mostafa

  • its only the bst!!!!!!!!!!

  • An absolute classic, realy miss my W900i as well, had it 10months then got WSOD, and had to be replaced. In 3D performance the W900 is still the benchmark for Java SEs thanx to its NVidia 4800 GPU, what a shame new SEs never got the priveldge to have the rich hardware the W900 had.

  • i miss u so much W900...............................

  • This is the best phone i ever had, so good..........

  • uhm last time i checked , 2nd hand or refurbed, cost like 12,000 - above.. perhaps price is now lower but for brand new if your lucky it might range to 20,000 and below

  • might be speaker is busted. try to find a repair center. they will just replaced that part which is broken.

  • one of great phone, a lot of my friends looking for this phone even i, to bad they stopped the production for this phone, hope se make other phone that has great quality just like this one/ as i checked to some store thet still sell this phone on a high price due to its demand to the public... even refurbed cost to high.. lol.

  • Answer to Aan: you can get this phone for less than US$150 second hand in Jakarta (roxy mas) can't remember which store though. Mind you that the downside of the phone is the size.

  • hi elise . no u cant change its cover i had it and i know . elise can we be friends?

  • I don't think SE is still manufacturing this phone, but probably you could get this phone between US$100-200 second hand these days. Nice phone though, I had been using for 1,5 years without any problem...

  • I wan to know this phone can change its cover or not..? Any one know..?

  • i find this phone really good can any tell me hoe much thus it cost in the philippines???

  • I have been using this phone for last 2 years. it is great phone. phone once dropped from table and now the speaker is not working........... can anybody tell me how i solve the problem???????????

  • I had this fone. It was one of the best phones I've used from Sony Ericsson.

  • Excelent phone... Until my screen gave me a problem and i payed huge amounts to have it sorted out, but still wasnt fixed. Please help me find the apropriate company or people that can help fix my W900i. Apparently the problem is a loose ribbon inside the phone. I live in South Africa

  • indeed.... this phone's achilles heel --> no A2DP.... i'm spending about 2 hours on the acc shop just to try lots of SE stereo BT.... too bad, none of them works on my Sakura.... im now considering upgrade to W902, but the review sounds not very convincing....

  • DSC980 doesnt work with this phone. Dont think other blueteeth will. Still think that w900 was the best phone for me. Though because of bluetooth headset now using w980.

  • this is the cutest mobile model in sony ericsson

  • Im planning the to buy the phone second hand, in my opinion this is still the best phone: looks and function. The only thing stopping me is that if this things breaks on me, I know there is almost no way to get it repaired because it has been discontinued, what should I do? Should I still buy it? Is it really tough? Thanks in advance

  • can any 1 temme whether v can use bluetooth streaming headset in w900i

  • can any 1 temme whether v can use bluetooth streaming headset in w900i

  • I had this phone and he is great!He got lot of memory and he has got WALKMAN!And a perfect camera.

  • Why my phone is not downloading application

  • Why my phone is not downloading application

  • Excellent phone, only downside is the weight and the size, but apart from that its been super reliable, excellent screen, and size, and video is quite goos and judder-free. Has a decent keypad, loud speaker and works flawlessly, camera is very good for a 2MP and takes photos as good as my K850i,its nice to have a phone that doubles in length so the earpiece is actually by your ear and the microphone you speak into in near your mouth unlike these 'micro' phones nowadays. I can't see me selling it ever, its taken some knocks too and survives like the best of them! Why don't they make phones like this nowadays? And it has auto focus and a led light too! How many new phones ,especially S.E's have this feature, not many! Reliable, practical, and highly rated phone!

  • Only charge the battery when its down to 12% or less, and don't leave it on charge for long after its reached 100%, I found my battery wasn't holding charge for very long, but after a few run downs and recharges like i mentioned the battery life has become much better.

  • w900 is a very good phone...why sony ericsson stop produce it?

  • better buy w980.. no doubt.. it's the best..

  • W900 is greattt... it has a great sound,great cam,n great video quality...i also like it's swivel design,but the 0nly problem is its battery,it drop very fast when i use internet...i try to buy a new battery,but useless...anyb0dy kn0w h0w to s0lve this pr0blem?thx bef0re.

  • this phone so good, ibuy this phone at KLCC 2600 this limited edition then this only one at sony company im the first buy this phone that time, all my frenz jelous 2 me...many functionand pict. so clear.

  • Hi friends,i buy this phone a month ago.it costs me 10000rs,it z realy nice phone with a wide screen and powerful speaker,i love my w900i

  • yes..it cost rm1700..i just bought this phone a month ago..the price is still high due to the limited stock..i bought the white version and it is so nice! last set in malaysia. if u wanna buy the new one, only got the black colour. first come first serve.if only u could pay more coz it's still expensive. i bought thus phone because it has the value and all my friends were jealous to me! i love this phone so much~!

  • you sure its Rm1700 ? it cant be that expensive, this phone already 2 years old, should be around RM900 to RM1200 (max), the even better model is Nokia 5610 its just only RM1100 in KL.

  • hai william i dont know the current price tag for this model, but have a second hand w900. i bought it rm600 from a friend and it works good.i love this phone.it may outdated, but trust me, u will not regret.it have a very big screen and good sound too.whwn in camera or video mood, u will feel like u are using a digicam.

  • hey,william.. from malaysia? really rm 1700? just thought of buying it.. but u r right it is outdated but still expensive.. guess i have to choose another phone.. any suggestion?

  • Yep. Dont ever expect the price of this baby to drop. This was the 1st ever Java phone with Graphics Acceleration, 1st SE to be able to record videos at QVGA 30fps. At that time its only video rival was NOKIA's Mighty N93 which did record much better. W900s camera was just as good as K800 in terms of picture quality. W900 also had/has much better audio quality than newer Walkman models. My W900 died of WSOD a year ago, realy miss this machine, ive got a K850 now which is a good replacement.

  • haha,i think this phone is absolutely expensive.realy.stil around rm1700.juz discuss the multimedia function,no matter how much it improve the software,can compare with a psp wif juz rm700 only?portable sony playstation,can play song,watch movie in widescreen,photos,surf internet,n its gaming function,n the speakers,can w900 compare do that?phone is basically a phone,can make call enough.n now 2008,w900 is outdated d.if u like the design much more than its functions,juz pay more than thousand to buy it.juz sad tat no more swivel phone for ericsson series,only w550 n w900 tat is old fashion...

  • hi,i like w900 because its a swivel phone n very smart.anyway,until now i stil hesitate for the price.in 2006,cant deny,it equip wif every functions.but now,2008,the price stil high juz bcoz of its limited units.juz for camera how it compare to sony cybershot phone,like k800 with juz pricing around rm600.to listen music,a cheap ipod nano can replacing walkman n the sound is more n more better.out of the design,juz like other sony phone.no difference.

  • hey there..yep there is a built in radio in the original hands free...plug it in and press the orange button..then u can listien to da radio

  • Hi can anyone please tell me how to block out calls , basically i dont want people phoning me while im using my camera to record my lessons in college , thx alot .

  • the best phone from sony ericsson. i really dont understand why they stop manufacturing this phone. the great walkman 3g.

  • Hello. I think that Sony Ericsson W900 is a great phone! My best friend has it and it's very very good. I don't know why people are complaining - especially about the camera, i mean, it works fine people! Also the 3G is very good quality and my friend is very satisfied. I like the way it twists and turns, it's very cute! The bluetooth and infrared work brilliantly and the sound is very clear. This phone is very simple and easy to use but is also excellent and very fun! Thank you for reading this!

  • pls. help me,,, my w900i games and application operation failed... wat should i do??? i hav email [email protected] pls. add me... den lets chat.. thanks if you can help!! W900i users only..

  • may i know if this phone accept WMA format?

  • Try updating the firmware (SEUS) or use XS++ to upload a different camdriver to your phone.

  • REPLY to AND1 try to delete paired devices from the bluetooth list of paired devices.

  • ma w900i.wen i use ma bluetooth its does not normaly come?why and wen its comes too it tells me ma memory is full up ?whiles ma memory is not full.is it software or hardware problem or what is the problem plz tell me now

  • @AC Video quality awful? That's because the horrible video compression. Mine works like that as well, looks nice when recording but blur and very pixelated when I play it back. It's not something you could fix, basically. Cuz it's the way the video encoder encode the video. I'm not sure what's their motivation to this, but one possible thing is that they want to make the video size smaller. My K850i has less compression than W900i's despite the same specs (QVGA@30fps) but the size is twice larger. I was kinda disappointed about it too, but it's something you have to live with if you're using W900i. It's definitely not hardware problem, since every W900i works that way (check W900i video online if you are curious). But if you really want to increase the quality somehow - I've tried it and one thing: you have to do recording in very bright areas where sunlight can burn your skin. Among SE handset that have QVGA video resolution, W900i came out to be the one that have the worst compression among 2 others (P990i and K850i) so far. I'm not sure about the new C series tho. Hope that helps.

  • HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYY... You just have to squeeze your phone...i've had just the same problem...i've squeezes it few times and camera works solid now...(better the before) xD xD xD

  • I'm in doubt now. It could be a software problem, but I think it's a lose connection between the camera sensor and the mainboard. You could try opening your W900i and see if the camera is connected properly, but I have no idea how to dismantle a W900i. Anyway good luck fixing your W900i!

  • it seems a bit better then before but when i go into camera mode there's alot of fuzzy lines , like for example when u need to adust a ariel in your tv to make the picture better . The picture in camera mode is not clear alot of flickering and distortion . thank you for your quick respone plz help me if you can thx

  • Thru the menu go to settings -> general -> scroll to the bottom to master rest -> settings only Try and report back!

  • can anybody help me i use this phone for the camera mostly but recently , after i have finished recording the quality has come out really really bad .. When i go into camera mode and film everything looks great but after i have finished recording and watch back it looks so awful .Wasnt like this before does anyone know what settings i have to change to get it back to normal thx .

  • i think this phone is class and i really want to......... i think im goin to get it

  • @wondering I had the phone before and IMO the swivel structure would be something you need to get used to for the first time if you want to like the phone. If you get used to the way it moves using it is a breeze. For me, after about a month using I am able to open, close and rotate to get the orientation right with only one hand - in which I think to train yourself to be able to do that is necessary cuz your other hand won't be always vacant all the time. Most of the time it won't be a big deal but sometimes the need to keep rotating the phone to get the orientation right if you're texting frequently might get in your nerves. Rotating out and closing could sore your hands abit at times. Overall it is a really good phone though size-wise abit bulky. Design is sleek simple and attractive (IMO), keypad is great, extra internal memory is definitely a plus, speaker is quite loud and crisp, camera though outdated can be considered feature rich with AF and flash, good camera quality (comparable to K750), video is good for SE phone (QVGA 30fps). Drawbacks? Screen quality is bit below average, low frame rate when running GIF images, abit tight in the pocket kinda hard to pull out if you have smaller pocket, horrible video recording compression, unable to speed-texting with only one hand (d-pad and keypad placed afar). If you can stand the size and structure and have no problem using an outdated phone, this phone is for you. Personally I changed mine with K850 after 2 years cuz I like SE and that was the only phone worth changing from SE if you have W900 before. Well, guess that was extract from my experience in using the phone. Hope that helps. :)

  • Can you change this phone's version of walkman player to 2.0 (the one with ID Tag recognition like the W850i have? Is it true that it's a bit laggy when it comes with FLASH Themes?

  • Good phone.....................

  • The Death Card of Sony Ericsson. Couldn't find any better believe me. 100% value for money.

  • W900 is a good phone! i love it so much.......................

  • Too the guy asking about the FM radio, it only pops up when u insert the original headset that comes with the w900 the radio is integrated in the headset not the phone itself

  • hi! id like to ask where i can find the fm in dis fon? i can find it =(

  • Is a very good phone.................

  • Great, solid, reliable phone. Had for years, spilled coffee, water, on it. Drop it (hard). Still going strong!

  • can we install software in any w series phone....like Nokia phones...i mean with .jar and .jad files.......

  • my cousin had this phone, and although bulky, the features in the phone 'over-ruled' its size. i thought i wasnt very big and compared to my p990i it was much more sleeker. its just when you swivel it its pretty big in its 'structural' length.

  • fone sow work it brokes now. can prints it pics? on pc or watch?...

  • w900i is a crzy nannny meanwhile w980i is hot nurse man

  • to those who already own this phone, do you have problems with its structure.i mean, when rotating it?please answer.i really like one but the structure bothers me.

  • to those who already own this phone, do you have problems with its structure.i mean, when rotating it?please answer.i really like one but the structure bothers me.

  • W980 is sampah la! W900 is better k...................

  • wat a fad a stupid cell i like the w980 the best man i have it now and my frend has the w900 and mine is sooooooo much better it has better camera it has a better bars when we are somewher (we are both fido) and the best of alll mine looks sooooo much better u dont know how much girls i got with this cell man.

  • Wah,what a cute & good phone...............

  • Good idea bro! i agree that! i wish ur dream come true....................

  • I Love Sony Ericsson Phone Bro.. I am only frowning upon its service. It,s bad in my country Indonesia. I Love W900. Now I just used the camera , video player and music player. I Have 8 Gigabyte Sony Pro Duo, 124 Games, more than 1000 photos, 672 songs in original size, and at least 100 video, and I think, why Sony Ericsson not join or combine the Walkman and K Series. How if sony make its substitution by 3 megapixel camera like K810 with the video and flash like K850, 2 speaker like W900 speaker, 3G and Edge. That surely in great demand although its price more than 300 dollar.

  • I think you are the unlucky wan la! my phone is three years liao! no problem at all........ i only love sony phone!!!

  • Sorry for my bad english. In 8 Years I use Sony erricson phone. And All my family too.I have owned the W900 since last 2 year. But 3 month ago this phone cannot get the signal and as soon as I try to repair in sony ericsson service centre, 2 day ago they call me phone and say that they cannot repair it because don't have sparepart. And now I cannot use it again. I very hateful this situation. My suggestion, don't bought the Sony erricson phone, because they not provide sparepart for it or if it broken, they might can't repair it.And its service is very dissatisfactory.

  • I love this phone very much...........!!!

  • Must try it! and buy it................

  • after 2 years of purchasing this phone, i still dont have a clue why the memory in the text message is so little. i only have about 150 text messages saved, and it keeps saying it's full and keeping me from receiving new ones unless i erase. anyone know how to sort this memory problem?

  • khaye-cee, the phone is already phased-out(at least inm the philippines) every store, from sm moa to g4 to greenhills no longer sell it, too bad. as for w910, it ranges to 13k

  • The best phone for Sony Ericsson..............

  • I hav this phone for more than 2years... its still god damn good... I drop it 3times, but still good... camera it's ok music... best until now... I love my W900i... Love it much... W900i it's the best SE phone...

  • Big but very good.................!!!

  • My friend have SE-w900. This is a cool cell phone and there is so much memory, but it's to BIIIIGGGG like brick.

  • i noe they dont make the phone anymore but will there still be shops that still sell it or is it fully sold out ?

  • the phone is hard to grab!!! the phone is real crap!

  • Rats: Sony Ericsson discontinued the manufacturing of this model so goes woth its other swivel type counterpart the SE S700i. You may get a good chance of getting it over at your local ebay

  • Rat the best thing to do is check 2nd phone shops if u havent got one i got one the other day(considering letting go of it if i get a new phone though)

  • still rules............

  • please sumwun tell me where to get this phone im dying == .. ive been searching for half a yr online and at the shops>___> people keep saying its not being sold anymore but why does this site say its still available?

  • i owned this phone for almost 2 years. i would say that this phone is the best phone i`ve ever had. this phone is superb!!!! the first time i bought it, i was amazed by how beautiful and stylish it is. 180degrees swivel with a knife sounds (to those owners, u guys know what i mean right? ;) ) makes other people turning their heads on me! every person i met would want to touch and explore the phone. the screen is bright and clear! i transferred lots of videos with high quality into my w900i and i would say i`m totally impressed with the resolution! very sharp!! i usually use the phone to play songs during break between classes and the sound is loud and clear, the best walkman series SE ever made!! thank you SE for this remarkable w900i!!!!! i love w900i!!!!!!!

  • i really love this phone! it is the best walkman phone i've ever seen! fantastic! i don't have this phone YET but my sister does. she's going to change her phone from this model to P1, and she offered me her old phone which is this and i am still excited though she already had this phone a couple of years back but still my sister took good care of her unit phone and it still looks brand new! as in! you can still pack it up into its box and try to tell the people you bought a brancd new phone and i bet they're gonna believe you! lol... and honestly speaking, there's no comparisson between this phone and the other walkman phones available in the market coz they will only look like a bunch of a crap even if i am owning a w850i right now, i am still goin to trade it for this, but i think the only walkman phone that can beat this up or can be matched up to this one is the w960i for it is a symbian phone and it has a 3.2 megapixel camera that outdoes this model but still w900i does a very good job! bravo sony ericsson!!!

  • Good..........

Unfortunate there isn't a proper upgrade to the W900i... cant call the other W9xx phones upgrades more like downgrades. Guess I'll have to look for something else if and when I upgrade.

  • The best of the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Is a good phone! why not sell liao???

  • @ Yumie Unfortunately this phone is no longer in production & has been off production for sum years now. Its highly unlikely dat u'l find 1 dats new, but u'l find plenty of 2nd hand ones. i suggest u visit sites like EBAY, or ya local sellin/auction sites or even da classified section of ya local newspaper, but b adviced dat this phone is quite rare & in demand, but there's plenty of them flyin around in my country(south africa).

  • i love w900 forever in my heart!!!

  • OMG! I'm so in loove with this phone. How much is this phone?

  • best of the best!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hi there everyone, I love the W900i since it has so many capabilities, I mean even is functions have functions. Everyone mentions its size though, but it is because of the Huge LCD. The thickness is there for the Zoom of the lens, which if anyone has not noticed, is extremely far. Almost 512MB of memory built in and its Video compression is AWESOME. I can let my camera record video for an entire day and the memory is not even full. The only thing I would like different is that the Cellphone should be able to connect to recharge and RCA jacks at the same time when used as a music player. Thanks :)

  • it was also my best phone, but not now. One time i mistakenly disconnected the cable from the pc after which the phone got hanged and when i took out the battery, the system collapsed. From then, i have booted the mobile more than 2 times and any time it can be hanged...so there is a lot of problems with this cell, i dont know if its true for all or mine only.\ but if this cell would have worked well, the company wud not have stopped its production which is so good in design than other w-series cells.

  • im confused..help me guys..which is better?the w900i or the w810i?which has a better sounds between the two fones?or theyre just the same?need feedback asap thanx ^_^

  • i hope w900 will go out for sell agian!!!

  • even up to now...the w900 here in the Phils is still quite expensive I made a mistake of selling this baby for a k800 the katana swoosh sound after swiveling it open is quite cool ^_^

  • w900i is the best phone for me,it beats all N series in terms of sounds quality. very powerfull speakers & a 2mpixels that captures like a 3.2mpxl....

  • i have two!! black & white!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • To the guy who wrote 'how about w960i?? im sure dat phone is better than this fone' Your probably right that overall its a 'better' phone but Im not going to get it because sound wise the w960 has only 40 channels and the w900 has 72, the video on the w960 has 15fps where as the w900 has 30fps, and both have the same battery!!! So a complete waste of money to be honest!

  • i m planning to buy a walkman phone.... i wanted toh ask that is w900 better or w810... is w900 as durable as w810.... plz answer....

  • GUd phone and has all the things requrired in a gud WaLkMan ANd it has a brilliant sound quality and specially thanks to sony ericsson for making this kind of full and fit phone

  • Best phone ever. Have had no problems what so ever with this phone and battery still excellent after two years. Looking for upgrade soon but nothing around at the moment as good as this one. In a class of it's own.Brilliant!!!!!!!!!!! Will keep for ever.

  • i was comparing my w900i to w850i and you know what? it was a really tough argument. But finally i won. the w900i is the winner of all walkman phone. thank you.

  • could any one tell me which better the black or the white w900

  • I don't care if this phone is an old, discontinued model! I want the phone so badly NOW! Hopefully I'll find one back in the Middle East

  • yea its nice but the camera is cool buy it u will never regret it!

  • My W900 died about 4months ago and so i got a Nokia N80. Anyway W900 remains THE BEST WALKMAN EVER MADE! It was discontinued middle of last year after only being in the Global Market for 7months. Realy a great phone :-) i do prefer my N80 though.

  • Hi Moreyte again, OR go to SETTING then SOUND and ALERTS!!! :) Good luck!

  • Hi Moreyte, The volume for w900i is on the upper right side of the phone. Just click it upper and lower and will increase and decrease the volume.

  • I absolutely love this phone. But why does it says 'available' when its discontinued. That's what the cellular store around my location tells me.

  • i like this phone and the phone is the best in town now,but i need how to browse from my phone and how to get the more laoudness.

  • nice phone i never see before

  • just buy it ok! so good!!!

  • does anybody know of the code that can increase the loudness of the W900?

  • a great phone i don't need anything more ... this phone has everything ... great sound double slide great colors the camera is excelent plantly of memory .... 3 g ... anything else?SUPERB !!!

  • Simply Awsome, but i have question about this phone... i have a British Vodafone w900i... does it work under WCDMA 2100 Mhz band or under UMTS 850/1900 Mhz?... If it works under WCDMA 2100 Mhz can i use it in USA or any other America country that uses 850/1900 UMTS band?

  • I had this phone for about 17 months...i bought another phone but i didn't sold it...great phone

  • okay...i'm looking for tis hp and anyone can tell me whr can i get tis..? quite big..but a very gud functional hp...and quite weird coz it was started since 2005 and the price din seems 2 decrease coz a frend of mine bought tis wif RM 1800++ and the market price now is omoz d same...anyway, tis hp impresses me better than others. oni one word i can say:GREAT!!!

  • Believe me if you use this one you'll never 1 2 change again it's got the best sound ever:-)

  • Original w900i still cost around RM1900 here..

  • I bought this phone before nearly a year and a half, and i must say it's the best phone i ever had along with the classic p800, although i bought the nokia 7500 prism before a month, but i didn't like it that much, so i'm using the w900 again now and i don't think i'll change it unless with its successor (if there's).

  • Hi Guys Kindly if anyone support me where to download the firmware of the w900i. Kind Regards

  • I can't find a brand new W900i anywhere in the Philippines. Went to greenhills and malate, but no more, only second hand. Anyway, I'm going vacation back to Middle east this December w/ my family and hopefully I'm going to find one!

  • QVGA video ...........Sony is using it in the K850i but this W900i had it in 2005 !! ...........speechless

  • hi there! im using W900i for 19 month's now, but 1 thing plsss... how can i lock it? i mean to put the lock code from unauthorised users to have access with my mobile? thats all for 2day, thanks. Ed

  • Hi. I have had my W900 for the past 18 months and wow it still impresses me. Being looking around since upgrade is due but nothing comes even close.

  • i love this phone so much. This phone price in Malaysia is higher than K800 2nd hand and any other phones. Sounds weird but its true! Kinda limited edition here. But white colour get better price.

  • sooooo big la! but it is so damm good lo!

  • Can we compare the sound quality og Sonny Ericsson W900 whit Nokia 3250 ? Which is more lauder, more nice more quallity ?

  • Dear, what is the way to download new software and how to Radio to listen FM Awaiting for ur reply Thanx

  • is the W900 louder than the new W910i?

  • right i love these phones loud without tinny sounds of other ericssons (w550i k750i-the loud one) nice and big with a good screen size nice and brickish with a swilel system that doesn't get boring But the thing i really the quality the menu with the memory stick / phone / both sub menus

  • How do i save my messages to the Memory stick or the Phone memory instead of using the SIM memory?

  • loveee this phone. i wish it wasn't discontinued....

  • Tell me pros and cons about W900.thx

  • sony should make an update with this phone. the style of the phone is just awesome

  • Excelent phone. It may be the third walkman phone but beats the rest except w950 n w960. Superb sound quality is unbeatable. The only thing i do not fancy is d bulk.

  • Yes.. i have both.. w900 is louder.. and quality is better..

  • is the sound better then the w600i cause i have it n when u put the equalizer at the max it plays pretty damn loud !!!

  • yes it is ,,it is an old phone but i have it and it is the besTT!! i had n70before and i can tell you there is no comparison.camera is nice and it is the loudest phone i sow til now.

  • yes it is ,,it is an old phone but i have it and it is the besTT!! i had n70before and i can tell you there is no comparison.camera is nice and it is the loudest phone i sow til now.

  • hi is the w900 louder than the w550???? thanks in advance

  • is it louder than the 550

  • I guess its bcoz w900 has instant message lol

  • i like this phone; features are great, the mother of all walkman phones. the only thing i don't like about it is it's bulk. but phone memory is exceptional: you'll never find it on other walkman phones or even on the entire SE models!!! Damn!!! hope SE will have a newer version of this phone wihtout the bulk. I chose w810i over this phone but both are great phones, it just a matter of preference

  • Hello! Im planning to buy W900i next week but im so worried about the Lens theres no cover for protection. How to clean the lens? Im afraid maybe its hard to clean coz of some dust from my pants and while cleaning the lens will become broken. I really like this phone.. How about the Games in this phone, its good or not? thanks...

  • where can i buy the earfon of w900i its called HPM80. coz i cant play the FM radio in my phone, its such a big problem to me.please,can anyone help me in my problem.

  • the mother of all the walkman phones!!!

  • It's the coolest phone that I ever own. The effects of the 2megapixel camera produces high quality images. The sound produce by the speaker is also great. It's one of the phone that Sony Ericsson came up. keep the good job, Song Ericsson. Highly recommend this phone to music and photo lovers

  • I've been using this phone for a quite long time now. And I must say, even though this phone is a bit outdated (in terms of release), it's one heck of a phone. It has a very good camera, at 2MP, you can capture clear and crisp photos (the autofocus is a plus too), Its video recording is at 30fps (frames per second) in 3gp file format. Although it could have been better if recorded at MP4 (to achieve high quality videos) Its Walkman player, although v1.0, is good. The speaker is just not that impressive. As for games and applications, W900i uses an old Java (whatever you call it) that's why it can't play or use applications/games as smoothly as the new SE phones today. and one more thing, when you open the phone (swivel mechanism) it attracts attention of the people around you! :D

  • well this is madir bru... you wont get a fone dat plays music this good the phone cranks up and has good features and a gr8 design.. you will neva go wrong with a fne like dis ... good job sony ericsson W900...

  • i am using this phone.although it is quit outdated.but,i still loving it.here goes my opinions. pro: 1.although is just 2.0 mp,but the quality an compare with some 3.0mp pics. 2.speaker is works well with both earbud n speaker. 3.big screen,caller id is big too. 4.navigation is better than joystick. cons: 1.bulky 2.cannot run wma 3.poor video quality.should use mpeg4 instead of 3gp. 4.phone can suddenly turn into black,need to send back to the factory to restore it.

  • For a phone that is getting old now i would say it still is above standard with new phones today just look at the internal memory 470mb and its expandable! Only thing i could criticise is the weight of this phone lol

  • SE w900i's video and mp3 rocks. the video is really good compare to nokia's Nseries phones. I think no other phone has this kind of video quality. Sorry guys if you dont have this kind of phone,we are the chosen one to own this.

  • the phone is seriously good, iv been using it for more than a year nw......n still its nt primitive in technology n d design is unique in itself..........m satisfied....

  • very very good mobile phone,atractive

  • Yes. This phone is really good. The sound quality rocks. I've been using this phone for more than 2 years and I love it. You can even connect the phone to an amplifier using the hpm- headset. Camera is not good too. Not the very best , but still good. :)

  • how do you get those flash menues on the w900. i tried it with xs++ but it fails.

  • um usin this phone & i jus love it. can i upgrade my frim wit sony eric sofware updater soft? is it safe? this phone supports symbian uiq softs? pls help me out. tnx

  • dear ,i wana know that w900 is good in working or not and its sound an wht is the worst thing of this set plz help me out .

  • to Dean: I'm afraid u can't integrate the radio into this phone... The HPM 80 is the antennae and the only device that can activate radio feature in this phone...

  • Hi it's me again with the same ? is it possible to upgrade the radio into the phone? Please help.

  • I bought this Brandnew SE w9001 in Jan2006 for $580.00 here in Jeddah KSA.. I can say its one tough phone. I accidentally dropped this so many times (on carpet, wood, concrete, asphalt, etc.) on the floor... and it just continue working. Aside the cool Walkman sound and the massive memory. (Mine has 2GB external) It also takes decent pictures and video. So Im always prepared to capture those memorable moments. Im just wondering why SE stopped making this model in the market? well, probably SE was afraid that if most people own the W900i, there would be no reason for people to buy a new phone :-) Why should I buy a new phone when Im totally satisfied with the W900i. Cheers mate.

  • i am hunting for this fone a year ago but i cant find it here in philippines .. ive seen second handed but its ugly .. so i decide to get p990i .. i will buy it if i see a brand new one ..

  • thas a great cellphone

  • To Saxone: Yes. It is true that this cell phone is out of production line almost a year ago. Moreover, this kind of cellphone is very hard to find, rocketing it's price almost equivalent to its original price. To anonymous: No, it's not touch screen. But it has navigation key. To Randy: It's up to yours. W960i got 8 Gb, no external memory slot, no navigation key, and a large touch screen. But this touch screen is probably the biggest drawback coz you can accidentally touch it when you accidentally turn this feature on. W900i got 470 Mb of internal memory with an external slot that supports to up to 8 Gb of memory (provided this memory is on the market now), giving you 8.47 Gb. Bigger than W960i. And this cell phone has an NVidia graphic chip, no wonder why it has a crisp display n superior video capability in its class. Still, the choice it's yours. Happy hunting. :)

  • I've searched everywhere for this phone but I cant find it. Is it true that they have stopped producing it? PLS REPLY.

  • is this touch screen.

  • I cant decide if i should buy this phone or the w960 i have the w850 now but im not happy please help me to decide and let me know how good the w900 realy is plz plz plz H E L P.

  • I've been using this phone for 18 Months till now, and day by day I just fall in love with it more ... though I'm thinking to buy a smart phone, but its the best deal that music lovers can have

  • i hav been used so many fones such as n80,n70,w810i,w850i,w800i and w900i.... well this is d 2nd times i use this fone coz.... this fone really is a fun fone 2 me when i bored... coz of its swingswing....

  • the phone its machine,it is like helicopter! ive openet it 5 times and i know all about it it is damn goood

  • I got this cell phone two months ago by sheer luck (May 5th) and i'm still amazed by this phone. Despite the bulky body, it's tough. Very tough and very well designed indeed. I love all the features it has. And when every cell phone maker makes loud of their mp3 player capability, this phone humiliates them with superior mp4 video playback and crisp display. I've got 380 Mb in my external memory dedicated to video files and only a mere 72 Mb for mp3 files. Besides, whenever i pull it from my pocket, nobody can resist to look at it. Whenever you see this phone, just grab it. It's worth the money and it's simply the best of the best SE W series. Never mind the new W910i and W960i, they're no match for this rare and amazing cell phone.

  • this pfhone is the superman of the walkman`s phones ...i have a w800i but w900 is gorgeus

  • how can upgrade my w900's frimware? is its a symbian phone?

  • the phone's built-in speaker aint designed for music playing is it,the sound gets choked up easily,even at low volume with normal equaliser settings.it can't wail properly. unlike the other music phone where music playback sound quality is decent via the speaker.

  • oh thnx Manz... then wad abt e walkman player? Can it play wma files after upgrading e firmware?

  • yo jason, if u mean updating the firmware using the sony ericson service pack, then yes, ur data is likely to be deleted, but all the bugs that u may hav come across will most likely be corrected. :)

  • loudest phone i ever heard...to heavy to voluminos

  • Can anyone tell me if after i upgrade my phone's software, can i play Wma files? & will my things be deleted if i upgade? Thankz

  • Hi vlad If u like it very much (the phone) here is a link to it

  • I recently bought this amazing phone but it did not come wit the w900 headphones :/.. do the headphones of a sony ericsson w810 or w800 fit in this phone or does the w900 have unique headphones?

  • For those of you who want to c W900 succesor go to this link and click on the word Shinobu thats the codename, heres the link:

  • hello sef.. where did you see the successor of the w900? i wanna see it too..thanks

  • To Fahim No you cant, theres no other WALKMAN that supports W900 headphones (HPM-80)

  • can i use this w900i's earphone with the se w200i?? need the answer ASAP!!! tq~

  • Best of the Best in all time !

  • hey guys thus this fone support 3g>

  • ie guys, thus W900 works perfectly with a 4GB, 8GB mem card?

  • on june 14 we will now glance the successor of this top-of the line phone:) with UIQ, 8Gb Flash memory and 3mpix AF camera.

  • To Kyko the volume arrows are in button form not jogdial. To Lee thats a great trade, this phone brilliant, dont worry about the size you will get used to it, i did :-) now i dont mind that its big. when i pull it out of my pocket in public people cant take their eyes off it

  • I just got this phone yesterday and i love it.. i traded in my nokia 6630 for it.. you think it was a good deal?.. till now ive had no problems wit this phone. the screen is crisp, the sound is amazing, everything u expect from a sony ericsson!.. just was wandering, who thinks the phone is just a lil bit to big and bulky? i think thats the only downfall to this phone.

  • To those who own this phone(W900): May i know is the arrow key in JogBall type? & is it true this phone will discontinue soon? -kyoko,M'sia-

  • China W900 is definetly the better choice Vlad how the hell did you manage to break the microprocesser? this phone aint a waste of money,til today its stil better than most SEs that are coming out now

  • got my w900 last summer from Dubai... but in less than 3 months it broke really bad. the flash memory, or microprocessor broke and my only sollution to fix it is to change the motherboard, which costs about 400 euros!!! so i'm not gonna b able to fix it at all. this phone was a waste of money(i payed 470$ for it).

  • The phone is d BOMB!went 2 d shop here bt nt in d market.Pls does d 2 small separate woofer speakers cum with every new one?

  • I got a W900i a while back, paid a lot for it. But let me tell you something, in a couple of months I get a brand new phone on my contract. I've been looking on the market to see what is being offered and NOTHING comes close to what my baby can offer me. I love my phone to bits, and even after 18 months of abuse (and I mean ABUSE) it still looks and works great. So to the guys at Sony, WELL DONE... I don't know what made you stop making it, its the best phone ever built!!!

  • I agree with tsepz yeah...this is the history!!!! also asd this phone is the mother of all walkman even more advance than the featureless w950 but in my homecountry Indonesia, the price get lower and lower for the second hand about US$260. the brand new still at US$400. Yesterday my friend in Indonesia told me that W900 is out of stock....hope the price will go up soon....:)

  • it's because the production has stopped. And to think Sony Ericsson squeeze in all the features in this phone for a trial product. This phone has the most complete feature from all of the walkman phones. I get headaches when looking for a white W900i Advise for everyone; if you saw a brand new W900i, don't think twice. Just get it. It's the mother of all walkman phones

  • Thanx for telling us that Calvin, WOW this phone has realy kept its price well, I wonder if its going to stay like that when the P1i is released. BUT WOW the W900 should realy go down in mobile history as a phone that has held its price very well, held it better than even a P990 which has now become VERY cheap

  • to sidra this phone definitely much louder than W850 To everybody this phone is price at S$1000+ at sim lim square singapore or US$680+ for the brand new do you believe? I'm not, but when i checked this to another place, it has the same price range.... Even the 2nd hand is about S$600 or US$408, for the only phone with charger.... I can't believe it, the price was went up!

  • was the screen of it is 2.4inch???

  • hi! guys can u tell me wich phone is best by sound and quality w850i or w900i please mail me if u know about it.

  • To Tsepz thanx a heap...

  • plz can any one tell me that which phone shund i buy i m so confused

  • this is the best mobile phone ewer i buy my black w 900 .price used mobile in bosnia :250 $.beliwe me is the best

  • Oh okay, as far as i know the W830/W850 can take 8GB and 4GB is the best for good speed, rather visit W830 forum to confirm this

  • To Tsepz, well plannin to buy the fone from the states .. from new jersey to be more precise and in particular wanted to know wedr or not the 8gb card works well in w830...if not then whats the maximum memory dat 1 can have wit w830 witout havin much of fone speed trouble... thanx

  • To Simba yes its upto 8GB and other W-phones that use the same mem card are the W800, W810 and W850. From what i have heard at Esato forums the W900 works perfectly with an 8GB mem card, the phone itself has alot of internal memory as wel,it has 470MB internal to back up some files. where are you/who buying the phone from? because when buying the phone new it generaly doesnt come with a memory card since it has such a huge internal memory,but yes some do sell it with a 1GB or 2GB memory card that you can replace with a 4GB or 8GB memory card.

  • To Tsepz The 8 gb card u reffering to will b put in place of the 1 gb card dat comes in the fone rite.. n i wud have to buy dis mem card also wanna know can i use the same mem card in the other W series fones if yes den what fones can i use it in and yea m sure it wud affect the fone's speed ... i mean is it advisable to use the 8gb card ... if not den whats the alternative or a substitute to have an amazing mem. bakup... merci beaucoup

  • To Simba the most as far as i know is 8GB mem card right now

  • I have this phone and its AWESOME and guess what i wont buy any other phone because they suck.. this is totally the best phone ever.. yes it has Radio. It also has VERY VERY Loud Volume.

  • If you don't mind getting a second hand one I suggest Ebay.

  • em..i can't wait to hav this phone..last march the price was RM1300.its really cool

  • To Tsepz.. i looked round here but sew900i is not available anymore not in any of the stores round...i'l be going abroad next month so i guess i'l have to check it round in dr...again gettin confused with the colors.. ofcourse the blak looks good but i guess white looks classy... dunno which 1 to go 4 ... also the memory matters as in how much memory at the most can it have ...i mean at the most ???? thanks

  • I sell different types of phones including this one...it costs $300 shipping not yet included

  • can someone pls help me....i gonna buy dis phone...does it have a radio or not....pls tell me and if u were to choose between dis phone and d w810i which would u choose...pls help asap

  • Yes this phone was discontinued middle of last year, the price of it new is around $588 USD,the hardest W900 to find is actualy the Black one especialy unbranded and unlocked, the White W900 sold alot more between Europe and South Africa than the Black W900 which is harder to find, im not selling my Black W900 no matter what :-D

  • Yes it's true that it has been stopped. You're lucky if you can find a brand new one in stores, and to add more of your irritation, try looking for the white one -_- I saw the price for used ones, still quite pricy US$350

  • hi, what is the price of this phone? i heard that its production has been stopped.is it true? thanks

  • Its got a 2.2inch high quality smooth screen

  • thanks tsepz...what walkman fone does have A2DP?? and may i also ask, what can i do with my w900 to make it better? thanks

  • To Anthony unfortunetly this phone came out begining of last year and was out for about 7months then it was discontinued middle of last year due to its high price,low sales and the fact that it was only a testing field for graphics chips in phones, therz only a lucky few of us who have it in dis forum

  • If it were me, i'd go for w900. W950i doesnt have a camera. But then again, can you still find w900? They stop the production already

  • Ive just updated my W900 with more new high quality mp4 music videos yay :-D i love this display. to marcel your phone needs a software reflashing, take it to your nearest cellphone service center

  • Im also wondering why the W900 price is stil so high its around R5850 here in SOUTH AFRICA,thats around same price as a N93, or N80, and its R1000 more than a N73,so im guessing the fact that the W900 is a VERY rare phone with alot of great features stil, 470mb internal mem, a great display, QVGA 30FPS VIDEO RECORDING and the fact that its caring a NVidia graphics engine makes it hold its price up very well,feels so gud to own a one year old SE JAVA phone thats more expensive than most Nokia N-series and E-series phones :-D it that NOKIA! hehehe

  • ACTUALY K810 is da best camera phone ;-) i thnk you should also check info before telling anybody,some people prefer 3x optical zoom of N93 rather than having to take a normal camera around,get it? good! :-)

  • i jst don get it..y dos this mobile's price donut fall?? wat special thing dos it hav? to Tsepz: LOLZZ hu said u dat N93 has 4X optical zoom?? its 3X optical zoom..before givin ne info to ne1 check it out thoroughly. lolzz..not even da home use digital camera has 4X OZ! lolzz....K800i iz da best camera fone though it dosnot hav OZ.no nid of zoom. if u nid da functionality to zoom..buy digital camcorder.

  • To Snake the W900 has 8x zoom,bt if you are serious about zoom rather get a NOKIA N93i which has 4x OPTICAL ZOOM which is much beta than K800 16x DIGITAL ZOOM, you must rememba OPTICAL ZOOM is beta since the camera lense zooms in and out. To just askin i downloaded and converted my mpeg4 vids using 3GP CONVERTER frm

  • To Tsepz: You said that You are playing mpeg4 movies. Are you using a dvd to mpeg4 converter or you just download the movies? thanks

  • Its Cheaper here in philippines than k800 jejejeje....but its still in high price coz some latest phone was cheaper now than w900 like p990 but i like k800 maybe it takes 1 year before it settle down its price coz k800 has the factor that i lyk,its the zoom...

  • ow ic,,im going for black color coz its more stylish jejeje.....what is the maximum zoom of this phone?x4?im hoping that it can zoom more coz x4 is not enough for me specially when im taking video in a distance

  • To Snake yep this phone is indeed great, it plays MPEG4 videos ive got alot of them in my W900, it can play movies very well sinces its huge screen is high quality and smooth, it can zoom and has the best 2.0mp cam out there, the cam comes very close to K800 quality, i havnt had alot of problems wit it,i love it, what colour are you geting yourz in?

  • Eow its me again jejeje ow so it doesnt have a zoom like k800 for about 32x?can anyone can confirm it? To Ayashi it depend on countries coz here in philippines w900 is cheaper now than k800 i think its just bcoz k800 is latest than w900 but w900 has a stable price for the past years ders many latest model that cheaper now than w900...if w900 has still manage to maintain its price for a years to come i think k800 will become cheaper than w900...what a built in memory do you agree that its one big reason why its price not going down that big?thanks for answering my question jejejeje

  • For snake,W900i is currently more expensive than K800i =P,well if i get it from someone.NOTE : W900i is discontinued,so the price will raise which for K800i theres so many stocks they want to get rid of it so they sell it so cheap!!!

  • This thing can play better movies than any other phones and i swear it does.

  • hi.. can any one tell me if this phone supports real player that plays rm,amr,etc.. reply a.s.a.p (please)

  • great phone ! just a little chunky

  • To Bankai123 again. My phone did mess up but I turned it off and kept it on charge for 2 days. After that the phone was fine. You should give that a try but if that doesn't work try contacting you service provider.

  • To bankai123. I had the same problem twice. Once when I opened the phone and once when I accidnetally pulled the usb out. I took it to a Vodafone shop and they replaced it for me twice. If your on contract you should call your provider.

  • As some of you already know my phone has the white screen of death syndrome and will not turn back on! It's been like this for about 4 days, i've already tried a bunch of things trying to fix it but nothing works. Now im going to try RE-FLASHING my phone with a website called DAVINCITEAM.COM, they have a program that supposedly fixes my problem. If anybody has done this before then i need your opinion on the matter or if you know an alternative then also let me know.FYI..i live in the U.S.A Any help is good, please e-mail me if you like at [email protected]

  • ive had this fone for nearly 18 mnths now and i cant find a better phone to upgrade to .this is by far the best ive had, sound quality superb as is camera and video has been dropped numerous time and still perfect the new ericsson phone arent much better apart from bigger memory you cant go wrong with this phone.

  • anyone could send me some flash themes.. thanks

  • To Ryan unfortunetly no, the W900 was discontinued middle of last year,it was only available for about 7months in most countries,you can find sum new in sum places in Singarpore and Indoenesia To Bankia123 wow,then im not sure hey,try downloading SEUS (SONY ERICSSON UPDATE SERVICE) frm the SE site, follow the instructions it gives you and update your W900's firmware, MAKE SURE THE BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED

  • its really a cool fone.......thanx 2 all 4 da cool reviews. I am havin some problem wd my w900i. can anyone tell me that how can i turn-off the screen light while havin a conversation??? coz i didnt find any option 2 turn off the light;)

  • Where can i get a software reflash in the USA, NYC to be exact. Mobile service centers don't exist here!! If there's a way for me to do it then please let me know!! If there's something i have to buy then also let me know! PLEASE!!

  • To Bankai123 your W900 needs a Software Reflashing, take it to nearest cellphone service center

  • well C4LV1N thnx... i dunno whether mah pop will b giving me w900 or n80.. he is in singapore now only..so i hv told him to get either of da 3 cells..i even dont kno whether he will bring any of dem or not.. hehe bi thnx.

  • @patty boy N80 is about $650, W900 $700++, I dont know the price of Motorola bcoz I hate that brand hahahahahaha I have serviced my N80 at NokiaCare. You know when I come to collect my phone, they give me another N80 which has a rounded front metal plate and scratchy keypad, that N80 is not mine and look worst, but they are convincing that was mine and when I show the IMEI with *#06# they give up and said that's not my N80, Its Silly!! so tommorow I'll go and take my real N80. This is a bad experience with Nokia when I live in Sg, I am Indonesian and this a bad impression for me(never face this prob in Indonesia).... now, I suggest you to buy W900 from the 3 options you want and NO N80(if you don't want to take risk)!!!!!:p

  • My W900 died on me yesterday. I put in a 2gb memory stick and then the screen turned white for like 5 minutes and then it turned itself off, i haven't been able to turn it back on. It can't possibly be completely dead because a red light will blink in the sides like every 5 minutes, plus i just got the phone brand new one month ago! can somebody please help me fix this problem?

  • N80 is a workhorse,Nokia phones mostly end up in the business market. W900 is a Fun.entertainment phone :P the best entertainment phone.besides the rest of the range.SE phones mostly end up in the Entertainment market.:P

  • well C4LV1N brother..i m only 14..thnx a lot 4 ur sugggestion..cn u kno me da cost of nokia n 80 ,, sony w 900 n motorokr e6 in singapore.. thnx.. patty.

  • @patty boy Hi! I live in Singapore I want to tell you something... I'm using N80 and W900 N80 is for mobility internet phone so you can open website anywhere with the wifi connection (You know SG has Wifi hotspot almost anywhere right?) but this phone is not build in a strong construction, it loose in sliding construction and that can affect to the screen (my N80 screen's can turn blank when i open and close the slide) About W900 It is definitely great phone even it doesn't came with Wifi but this is absolutely the phone that everybody want. It's construction really solid and I have no problem with it when I've used it for 8 months. so, if you want the phone which is for teenager, this 2 phones is the best choice (not the ugly N73). N80(new) is cheaper than W900(new) bcoz W900 much rare than N80.... btw how old are you? still in sec school?

  • This phone is the mothership of the phone industry at the moment. with its combination of massive memory and sleek style, this phone has potential to make it to the very top of the mobile phone market.

  • I think If you're a teenager who wants to look cool I think w900 is a good choice hehehe that katana sound is something hehehe when swiveling the phone open hehehehe

  • Im 17 an got W900, my mum got N80, i thnk W900 is a realy gud phone for teens, the N80 is very boring bt has more funcionality since its a symbian,the W900 has a bigger screen, more internal memory, beta video recording and playback, beta sound quality, picture quality,and its louder and faster UI, i dont live in singapor so im not sure if its available there

  • Yep,i love it,and i hope it does get RE-released with its already great features improved,and with A2DP added

  • right on sir tsepz!!! ^_^ hehehehehe I totally agree heheheh this phone rocks and it rocks hard hehehe

  • does this phone support the high speed type of memory stick pro duo? thanks

  • i've k800 and it's sound so week is the w900's sound high or the same. please emial me at [email protected]

  • To carloud yep wer so rite the W900 kicks the SHARP 903 and the K800, the 903 has a better camera and thats all, K800 also just has a gud camera but W900 keeps up, otherwise W900 kills competition overall

  • Hi, well i brought this mobile 2 weeks ago and its FANTASTIC i would reccomended this mobile 2 anyone. and its has a great set out! bye :)

  • k800 being branded with the "cybershot" logo doesnt mean it's actually better than the walkman w900 hehe w900 was able to go toe to toe against arguably the best 3.2 megapixel camera mobile phone the sharp 903 with sharp 903 slightly edging the w900 out a bit in camera quality but the w900 beat the sharp 903 in poor lighting conditions just look it up on the esato.com forums and search for w900 vs sharp 903 or you can just google it the w900 has double the resolution and double the framerate which also would mean twice as good as that of the k800's video despite the fact that w900 has a slower processor running at 109mhz compared to k750 at 112 mhz and the k800 at 220 mhz the w900 actually bests both fones in the capacity of the memory card that it can handle k750 slows down alot at 2gigs of additional memory whilst the w900 experiences such slowdown at 4gigs and above and add that to the additional 512mb(470 useable memory) of internal memory heheh w900 is a monster and is alot rarer than k800 and k750/w800/w810 and to that w900 has the katana swish sound when swivling it open hehehe it rocks hard^_^ with w900 being the top of the line phone during it's time(and even up to now it still is) it's hard to imagine the w810 toping it off in the music department it's like comparing a 70's muscle car to that of a sedan w900 obliterates the competition

  • Well jawbreaker just proved that the W900 can handle 8GB nicely :-) so it should handle a 4GB with no problems

  • Can this phone handle 4gb without slowing? thanks

  • have owned W900i for almost 1 year now (May 06). it is the BEST phone i've ever owned!!! no problems at all. i even put the 8gig card in... works GREAT.

  • To 786 yep,here in South Africa the W900 is very rare, ive only seen two ppl since beginning of LAST year with one, try Amazon.com or eBay they are stil selling some new ones, otherwise rather get a W610 it has all the features of W810 and a lil bit more

  • @Tsepz True .i think youv made want to Buy a W900i now.it is 1 of my Dream phones.im trying to find one to buy. but i Cant ? i know W900i is a rare phone but i live in UK .is it Rarer here.W810i seems to be the most Popular here.at the moment i use a W850i and i want a another walkman phone.i think its either W810i.or W900i if i can find one!!! or i get the new W610i ?

  • To 786 1st of all you had to compare TWO phones to W900, 2nd at wich wat video recording frame rate and resolution do K810,W850 and W810 do? they do ANCIENT 15fps at 176x220 resolution whilest W900 does 30fps at 320x240 resolution wich kills every other SE around, 3rd the W900 has the biggest screen, MOST INTERNAL MEMORY (470MB) which is expandable, the 3D graphics yes are equal wit W850 K810 and W900 BUT THE W900 CAN Accelerate the graphics WEN NEEDED! the W900 has a beta camera than W810 and W850, and is realy close to K810/K800 quality wich hav 3.2mp cams, the W900 also has the most user-friendly navigation pad and its video playback kills that little W810, and also K810 and W850, the W900 was fitted with a sound enhancement chip which makes it louder and clearer than W810,W850 and K810, honestly thnk a little about what you said you compared THREE different phones to ONE that has abit of everythng of what those phones hav and more, OH and heres another thng therz a TrackID application, ive got it on my W900 so realy i dnt need WALKMAN2.0 ,A2DP is stil nt that great, you can go ahead and get W810 just remember W900 is soooo much better , SEE YA! ;-)

  • 2 reasons not to get this phone..and to get others.from SE 1) W850i has WALKMAN 2.0 - W900 does not 2) K810i has a Cybershot 3.2 camera - W900 does not 3) W850i is lighter and smaller then W900 - and the graphics of games are equal in W850i no offence to W900 users i like this phone its just the others in the range beat it.its 1 of ma my dream phones.but i dont really want it now.i want a W810i instead its 1 on the top then this phone.

  • camera should be improved & a better colour should be implemented plz do the needful & snd me a broucher a my e-mail id..........

  • is it heavy or big?

  • To C4LVIN yes same here im gna use W900 for a long time, i love Symbian UIQ, i like Symbian s60 as wel because it has so many appz, but love SE UIQ coz of Touchscreen Jogdial and QWERTY keyboard, im loving the P700 its going to be very userfriendly with that M600 QWERTY keyboard, the thing i hate about N95 is that it doesnt have Touchscreen, Jogdial or QWERTY board which is what i want in my next phone,my mum is geting the N95 so il just wait for the P700, hopefuly its one of the phones that are being announced on the 8th of May because then by the time it comes out my contract upgrade will be near

  • and why the keypads format are same with M600, why SE not make it in separate key.....:( beside that, finally SE turned in the Wifi inside their smartphone beside the expensive P990.... I hope P700 much cheaper than P990 ;)

  • @Tsepz Is it true???? I have planned that my next phone is N95 after my N80. But I'll still using my W900 till I die, also my S700 hehehehehehehehehe... About the P700, It's really cool after I checked it at the website below... but I really don't like Symbian UIQ used by P700 that similar to W950. I really hate W950, the performance and OS never impressed well for me. ;)

  • To Aljon thanx, all of us at Esato wer so over excited when PeterKay postd those pics of hz protoptype P700, it luks like a finished product,i wonder why SE havent announced it,because its definetly my next phone, thank God i waited and didnt by the P990 even thou i wanted it so much BUT P700 has stolen my heart lol

  • these are the photos of SE P700i

  • real pictures of SE P700i .. :D

  • Im just curious,if any of you just close your W900 hold it by the bottom part and just shake it up a lil does the top part rattle? is yours loose? after reading sum complaints about the nokia N95 rattling because of its loose slider build quality even thou its like two months old so i decided to shake my W900 around and check if it rattles even thou its like over 6months old and guess what? NO RATTLE! :-D LOL, im realy impressed, when i got this phone my friends kept saying it will get loose,it will rattle and break in half but to this day its no rattle,it is abit loose bt hey what do u expect wen uve bn using it for more than 6months

  • To bloat try they have al kinds of software for our phones

  • where can I download the disc 2 phone software?

  • To Trish the W900 is alot better than a K810, theres apparently going to be an Announcement of a new SYMBIAN UIQ phone code named Elena and it maybe named P700, its gna hav a 3.2mp cam, Symbian UIQ3.1 apparently, TOUCHSCREEN, VIDEO CALLING CAMERA, WiFi, QWERTY keypad and maybe GPS. its in the form of the M600 just with all those features added, thats what im upgrading to after having my W900 since August last year, i dont have sound problems at all with mine, maybe urz has a bug in sound chip or your speaker is loose, yep it gets slower the more you put in it, cant blame it thou it has a very low 108MHz CPU PROCESSOR and it already has to deal with a high power NVidia Graphics engine, otherwise im totaly in love with my W900 as ive said before

  • I got my W900 in april last year and have put a 2.0gb memory card in it. up to christmas it was fine. But the more you have on it the slower the phone is. I have to constantly delete my inbox and outbox for messages as well for the same reason. The phone is good due to the zoom feature for video recording but the sound qaulity is terrible. Have tried adjusting the settings but it makes no difference. Considering what to get next as due upgrade in sep 07. I like the look of k810. any ideas?? I'd like to stick with cony ericsson.

  • Yep its made for Java phones,its mainly made for SonyEricssons go to google an type in MeBoy Java Emulator it should take you to the site where you can download it, ive got it but i havnt installd it in my phone its just in my PC

  • @c4lv1n ahahahahaha. i didn't play it. I'm actually just now that there is GBA emulator for handphone. LOL. My cousin told me that in his university the collegian play pokemon in their handphone. ahahahahahaha. @Tzepz is it for java? can be installed for SE phone? thx....

  • There is a Java emulator its called MeBoy

  • @stevyre hahahahahahaha I have used 6600 2 years ago yeah.... the GBA emulator is awesome what kind of game do you play??? I usually play pokemon in my 6600 which the extension is the same as pokemon in computer.... GBA emulator in 6600 actually is in the symbian format, but I hope one day someone will made the emulator for in java format....:p

  • thx for your reply all. mine here work fine with 1gb M2 card Sony. Sorry for the late of my reply all. LOL. the price of w900 in Indonesia now only Rp. 3.400.000 at Roxy. @Tsepz, C4lv1n, W900owner, and the other do u know if sony ericsson phone (w900, k800, etc)can be installed with v-boy (emulator GBA for handphone). because here Nokia can use it even Nokia 6600. Sorry if my english is no good. thx all.

  • do they still sell this phone in stores?

  • why get a W850 when the W900 is better

  • Hi again! If someone wants this phone or better we can exchange it 4 w850i. Sorry it's in Slovenian language.I have 2, 4 one the price is 208� the other one 230�.

  • A ? for all of u. Is it possible 2 upgrade the phone that the radio would be in it not on the head set? Thanks

  • To Bankai a frend of mine has a W900 with 2GB mem stick with no problems, whats wrong with yourz? the last firmware update of the W900 was middle of last year before the W900 was discontinued i thnk the firmware was R5BE sumthng like that

  • @s3raphim Hi.... Nice to know you I come from Indonesia and studying in Singapore... I buy my W900 in Indonesia I've ask before for the new in Sim Lim square Singapore, the price is S$800 when I bought it in Indonesia at about S$650. It's hard to found the new W900 now but the second hand is S$450 in good and complete condition. if you want the cheapest W900, go to Batam island and the price is below S$450 in the good and complete condition. Actually the second hand phone in Batam island all were come from Singapore...

  • Has anybody ever had a problem using a 2gb memory stick with the w900i, because it's giving me afew problems. Also can somebody tell me when was the last time that sony ericsson updated the firmware. THANX

  • When i put my w900i on silent, there is no camera sound. Have you tried it on silent?

  • hey does anyone noe if w900 is in australia? and at what price. cos i was thinking of buying it.

  • hell yea thats a good deal hop on that..this phone runs 4 like 300 usd brand new

  • To carloud yep im talkin USD, W900 has kept its price well,the headset and manual shudnt be too hard to get hold of To Aljon lol im also in 4th year of high skul this phone is perfect for you trust me, brilliant video recording/playback, alota mem dats expandable, radio,gud camera, big screen, realy loud speaker etc. . . its perfect for us To s3rphim the W900 (unfortunetly) was discontinued middle of last year due to poor sales,expensive parts and the fact that its built in Japan made everythng worse i guess, also becoz uhe W900 was a testing field for SE phones that run Graphics Engines,another reason was becoz the phone was exclusive to Vodafone for its first couple of months out and WORLD WIDE sum networks never even got it and some countries never got it and that all equald to low sales, but some countries like indonesia wer stil selling new units

  • thoses phones are big bulky and slow i hv w810i and k800i , k800i is best tho.

  • i heard tat they alrdy discontinue the w900 alrdy issit true???

  • tzeps .. thank you for the information .. your reply is well appriciated .. hehe i would like to cange my O2 Xda Atom Life to w900i . bec. im having hard time using my O2 Xda Atom Life .. bec. its for buss. mans and im only 4th yr. high school .. and im afraid to use it in public places it can be snatched from me .. coz i have to use it w/ its stylus .. unlike w900i it have keypad ..

  • oh well so it's a good buy then? heheh problem is it's firmware doesnt let one turn off the camera volume hehe elo sir s3raphim, sir I'm currently here at the Philippines, and at a filipino website which is bidshot.com there's someone offering his w900 sim free, for 8,200php roughly the equivalent of about $170 USD. though the package he's offering doesnt include the headset and the manual... there are people who post in the said forum which offer w900 for about $220 almost new with personal warranty phones are relatively cheap here compared to other parts of the globe I reckon sharp 903 phones are worth over $500 USD too, they sell it here for about $200 brand new. soo sir tsepz w900 actually costs 500 USD??? wow it costs as much as a playstation 3 hehe^_^

  • and oso to carloud, can i noe where u found such a gud price for w900?

  • hey C4LV1N, i would like to ask u something, r u from singapore? can u tell me how much is w900 now in singapore? pls reply me soon bcoz i am looking forward to buy it.

  • To carload you are so lucky thats a brilliant deal,the W900 costs around $550 when its new WITHOUT a memory card, so you are geting a good deal,i had to buy my own 1GB memory stick because i got my W900 new from Vodafone lol

  • oh I see, thanks for the reply again sir tsepz hehehe the guy is selling it to me for $170 USD. the package includes the phone,1gig memory card and charger...is it worth it?

  • To carloud wow! then you cnt turn the camera sound off at all as far as i knw,sorry

  • sir tsepz thanks for the quick response, I was wondering though, if the seller says that the cam sound is still audible even though it is turned on silent profile, could it be possible that you cant turn the phone camera sound off at all? thanks again sir ^_^

  • To W900 Owner i dont think its possible to share video clipz in a video call,i thnk that wud demand alot out of the phone and its battery,and i thnk we would need alot more than 384kbps to share video clips in a video call,So yep i dnt thnk its possible just yet

  • @C4lv1n, the brand of my memory card also Sony, it's all very similar to the Sony Original one, only dun have warranty , the performance so far so good, doesn't slow down the process speed, just like 512mb, hopefully this memory card will last for long. @Tsepz, I'm wondering if you know how to share video clips while doing 3G video call? I only tried to share pictures but unable to find way to share video clips during video call, is it possible or it indeed unable to sh are video clips?

  • To Carload yes you can update the firmware,but to switch off camera shutter sound rather just turn the phone to silent

  • goodday/night sirs I am going to buy a w900 unit later my question is is it possible to change the phones firmware from a firmware where you cannot turn the cam sound off to a firmware where you can turn the cam sound off? any replies asap would be greatly appreciated thanks sirs^_^

  • To Stevyre,W900 Owner and Calvin Yes i agree the W900 is better allrounder than K800, Stevyre the only things the K800 has over W900 is the CAMERA and MULTI-TASKING, the K800 can run more than one Java application and Game whilest W900 can only run one at a time. but otherwise yep W900 stil has more features including Flash Player and that huge 470mb Internal Memory and all the other features everyone has mentioned. To W900 Owner i paid R600 for my 1GB thats around $90, there are some places where fake memory sticks are sold here like Bruma Lake Market which is notorious for having fake: PS1,PS2,PS3 GAMES, FAKE DVDs, FAKE DESIGNER CLOTHES, and unapproved or internaly broken phones the last time i was there some guys tried selling a NOKIA N91 which im sure had a damaged HDD, that guy was so convincing hahahaha! thank gudness my Dad was there

  • @W900 owner hahahahahaha You're lucky.... hope no problem for long last I bought the 2gb Sandisk at Singapore, about S$73 (Rp. 438.000,-). Memory card in Singapore is much cheaper when compared to Indonesia. I think you right, but in Singapore there is no imitation one, the law here is very strong so nobody can cheat your money(but not all the shop, must be careful at Lucky plaza orchard road;)) btw what memory card brand do you buy?

  • @Stevyre If compared the W900 and K800.... honestly I choose W900 becoz of the style and the music K800 is the best 3G handphone in 2007 this is the nominate from 3GSM world congress 2007 at Barcelona...... (you can read 'SELULAR' magazine March edition number 84) but actually when I borrowed it from my friend, it works very slow with 1 gb Sony M2 card. and it's not happen with my W900 that has 2 gb Sandisk card inside, W900 has the same performed speed as with the normal 512 mb card It is up to you.... how do you feel about the phone and what you need. If you want the best cameraphone and the simple one just keep your K800 and if you want the style, music, and best video (30 fps) Let's buy W900 Hope this can help you.... ;)

  • @C4lv1n I Bought the Sony Memory Card for Rp 400.000 (USD 44), well , judging from the price, u may said its the imitation one but luckily i have never had problem with this card. The original one is much more expensive than sandisk, and i afraid even if i bought the original one they would still give me the imitation one (U know well how indonesian people doing business, right? ) so why take risk to buy the original one , right? How much u bought sandisk memory card? Btw, sorry for late respond since quite busy recently :) @Stevyre, nice to meet another indonesian who had interest in W900 :) Me also stay in Jakarta now, Me only born in Medan. First of all, i also in difficult situation to choose between K800 and W900 cause both phone really looks cool and elegant. But after many considerations, I decided to buy W900, which i will never regret this decision because the only spec K800 win over W900 is its camera, while W900 superior in many specs like bigger screen, quality of video resolution, music, exclusivity ( first realease w900 is very expensive compared to first release of K800) while other specs and function both relatively same. Btw, i want to buy k790 , not k800 because both phone have same specs except 3G video call. For I can use my w900 whenever i want to use 3G, so i prefer k790 than k800 :) I want to add my phone without selling my baby w900. @Tsepz, I believe u will support my comments above, may be wanna add another opinion to our new friend, Stevyre ? Btw, how much u bought ur memory card? Did phone shops in SA also sell imitation memory card?

  • hi w900 owner, c4lv1n. we are from the same country but i'm from jakarta. LOL. @w900, calvin, T-sepz which is better between K800 and w900? do u buy K800 yet W900 owner? i now have K800, Is it worth to sell it and get W900? thx

  • hello sirs I am a non w900 owner but I had my moments with this fone it's too good, as I first held it on my hands I felt the electricity running through it as if it emits a strange kind of power and ALASS I finally was able to utilize this power for upskirtssss thanks to the 30 fps video I was able to take fluid videos of girls in mini skirts moving about in malls and other places and thanks to the auto focus images I've taken of women using t-back undies are crystal clear guaranteed boner!!!! man this fone rocks!!!

  • To Aljon yep it supports MPEG-4 (MP4) format

  • does w900 support mpeg-4 file format ? .

  • Can you use the video camera as a web cam on msn messenger?

  • Yes it is pretty bright @ M@T2, you got da same code as me

  • Is the flash bright on this phone?

  • To Mehmood the W900 is way beta than a 3250 especialy as a Music, Camera, Video, camcoder phone To Pash your the poor one,you dont know much about this magnifacent device

  • This is so Poor, i aint even commenting on it

  • Is w900 speaker louder than 3250 and which is better to buy 3250 or w900.

  • I used this phone for about 2 months, wat can i say is, its a cool phone, wit a superb camera. Video @ 30 fps. Images look brilliant when compared to nokia.

  • Tsepz, the sensor is CMOS not the lens. the lens is a proprietary sony lens used in older cybershots like the non-optical zooming U-series cybershots. the sensor is CMOS and it's the biggest difference it has over the U-series cybershots(having CCD sensors) but yes you're right, the Nvidia graphics helped in processing better images. but i hope there will be an ATI graphics chip in any of SE walkman flagships too. maybe sometime in the new G-series or gaming series of SE!

  • thanx tsepz

  • The W900 has a CMOS lens i thnk BUT its helpd by Graphics Accelerator and AutoFocus so the pictures come out as if its a 3mp or a 2mp with CCD lens, the video is in 240x320 at 30fps

  • i would like to know... about da camera.. it use CCD lens or just normal CMOS lens?? and the fps for da video.. it is 15 or 30 fps??? thanx... want to know ASAP coz wanna change my fon..

  • To Bloat try putting your sound and video bit rate lower, keep the frame rate at 30fps thou

  • i owned this phone for more than a year.. still love it.. but i would like to use internet on this phone... i recently got tmobile web so now i can use the google engine in the internet service.. but what about "paly now" and "myfriends" i dunno is anyone used them yet...

  • Ok, for now I transferred all my music to my memory card and the videos on my phone memory. It's working a bit better, but still not as smooth as I had hoped. Help please. What settings should I use for my videos when I convert them to mp4 format?

  • Help please. I bought my 2 Gb sony ericsson memory stick pro duo a couple of days ago. I tried putting a movie in it. It was in .mp4 format and the size was 350+ Mb. Everything went well except when I played the movie. There were parts of the movie that became choppy and they lost their sounds, but eventually the sounds and the scenes caught up with each other. It happened a lot though. I have the same problem with the videos that I put in that are in .mp4 format and are only about 38 Mb. Any suggestions? I'd rather not convert them into .3gp format because it reduces the size and quality of the video. Is there any other format or way that I have to use so that I can enjoy my videos without any problems? Thanks!

  • To W900 Owner yep i hope they do, the K790 is around $350-$350 depending where you get it. im using a 1GB SanDisk card and its gud,when i put a video on the card the audio and visual arent well sychronised,so i put all my videos on the phone memory :-) thats the gud thng bout dis phone 470mb internal mem to play around with lol

  • @W900 Owner Of couse the Sony one is better than sandisk. Now I used 2 gb sandisk because in Singapore the Sony far more expensive than sandisk especiallly the Sony high speed.... If I load some very high quality of video such as compressed avi and i saved it in memory card, the sound was missing and when i move it to phone memory it works perfect with high quality and smoothness. but if only an average video such as compressed mpeg, it works perfect both on memory card and phone memory. Btw, how much do you buy your memory card?

  • @C4lvin, i use sony own memory card high speed at 80 mbps. btw,in your opinion, which one does better, sony or sandisk? First time i wanna buy sandisk but then change m y mind to use sony memory card. @Tspez, I guess sony will also use mp4 for their video recorder, but they will have us waiting for sure. Btw, do u know how muck K790 in your country quoted in US$?

  • @w900owner I hope no problem with w900 if 8gb used inside... I agree about the speed also influence by the memory card. But you can try the high speed sony produo or ultra II of sandisk. Btw, what merk of mem card u use now?

  • hope to get 1 of this phone it is so damn nice... dont noe who can buy for me!!!!!

  • w900 u r the most cool 1... i like it ... music.. camera... is the best...

  • To W900 Owner thats true,i hope it doesnt make a mess of W900's perfomance, but i doubt it would. i wish Sony Ericsson could release a firmware that improves video recording abit more, maybe make the phone record in mp4 format for beta quality, the NOKIA N93 shoots at 30fps in mp4 y cnt SE do that to W900, OR sumthng close to that

  • @Tsepz and C4lv1n, the case is like this, when i using W810, I upgrade my memory card from 512MB to 2 G, it performs well when i Tried the memory card in W810 and W900. ( I sold my W810 but i kept the memory card because I bought the memory card alone that not included in the package) However, the same memory card performs bad in My brother's K750 (same contains of size,which nearly fill up the space of 2 G), so in my opinion, it's the phone that has influenced the speed, though I also agree the type of memory card also have big influence of speed. That's all the info that i wanna share, however, I really hope that the 8G memory card will performs as well as 2G memory card in W900, who knows one day i wanna upgrade my memory card too, rite? Please dun forget to try it first before purchase the memory card 8 G, hopefully, there will be no slow on of speed :)

  • i am gettin a upgrade soon and can any1 tell me if this fone is loud and basicly a decent fone

  • i love this phone. the memory to me is good. also this phone has fall to the floor a couple of times and its still in perfect shape. and i've had this phone for at least a year or so i think two years

  • wOW this is the best equiped SE walkman phone I hope i could afford it

  • @W900 0wner sorry... I mean 2 gb in my W900 performed as the normal 512 mb card..;)

  • To W900 Owner it depends what memory card you get, becoz my W900 feels and perfomes faster with my 1GB than my 512mb. it shud perform perfectly with an 8gb, if you fill it up then it shud slow down like any other card

  • @W900 0wner 2 gb can make K750 slow down??? I've tried 2gb in my w800 and no problem, as fast as with 512 mb..... btw I've sold my W800....:) now, the 2gb card I used in W900 and the phone performed same like with normal 2 gb card lol

  • @ C4lv1n , hahaha....what a small world, me and all my family member also born in Medan and moved to Jakarta around 4 years ago. Nice to know someone from same hometown, admire the same great phone in form of W900. @ Tsepz, are u sure that 8G will not slow down the performance in W900? I have tried ro use 2G memory in K750 and it did very much slow down the performance, so I'm afraid it will be the same case with W900 if memory upgraded up to 8G. ( Both phone using memory pro duo, rite? ) Kindly advise.

  • LOL @ Calvin, i agreed with you before,i just didnt say so coz i kept forgeting to add that everytime i post,but yes i definetly agree, W900 takes 8gb memorystick, yes gud bye to N91 4GB and 8GB Music Edition, the W900 realy is a beta, and way more reliable phone than both N91s

  • @Tsepz Finally you agree with me.... about the 8 gb memory card that can use in W900 hohohohohohoho...... Just want to say bye2 to N91 the best music phone(I've heard b4 in the news......but I don't think so) The W900 just kick you out!!! even the music edition one

  • To Dune it takes upto 8GB memory card now

  • It's a fab phone. It's stylish, flash n it does all the jobs you would want it 2 do. ITS THE BST FONE EVA! U shud all get 1. xxx

  • im planning to purchase this wonderful phone. i'd just like to know if anyone knows what is the max capacity of the mem card that you could put on the w900

  • To Zach you must have had one messed up W900, the Camera is the best in its class becoz of its Graphics Chip! you are moving to a SAMSUNG D900? dude are you serious? you are totaly blinded by the fact that it has a 3mp camera you obviously didnt know how to use Auto Focus on the W900, and now you are downgrading to a SAMSUNG D900!? one ugly thin phone you will realy get bored even faster. 470mb internal expandable mem, 2.2inch screen, videos at 30fps, a 2mp camera that is as gud as a D900 3MP, and your leaving all of that for a SAMSUNG D900? i dont thnk you know what your doing, good luck anyway not that you wil have any wen using a Samsung

  • I had the phone for about 2 months and it honestly got boring to me. While the camera wasn't as good as even the w810i, the casing seemed to attract scratches better than anything, so buy a crystal clear case as I did to protect that screen. I'm moving up to a Samsung D900 (3mp camera, 2nd thinnest phone out there, quad-band support...). The w900i didn't work for me in up state New York when I visited so watch out for that asa well.

  • Thanx guys,i am proud to own a W900, AND to have met you guys is great! 3GP CONVERTER i used is the one from Lasyk.net ,its not the best converter but stil it gets the job done very well i mite add. when i first saw the W900 i hated it because i had just bought a W800 BUT after a while i grew to like it,then my contract upgrade came around i immedietly went for the W900 the day i got to the Vodashop to upgrade i had never seen a life-sized W900 so when the guy at the counter brought it out of the back room i was absolutely shocked! at its size, i nearly turned it back but after taking a second look at it i kinda liked it even thou of its huge size hehehe! TO this day i dont regret taking it!

  • @Tsepz why you feel embarassed??? You must be proud! You've used SE W900.... that's the great handphone.... and welcome to SE world!!!!! hahahahahahahaha the 3gp converter u download is it from SE website? I used MPEG4 direct maker.... do u know that W900 can use 8 gb MSproduo?

  • @W900 0wner how come????? hahahahahahahahahaha we came from the same province..... I born and live in medan before I move to Jakarta about 5 years ago.... All my family born in Medan! Now... we are the same... the people who proud to use W900 hahahahahahahahahaha

  • @Tsepz , no need to embarassed Tsepz,actually I'm the one who should envy u since for the very first time you are using SE, U already used the great Phone in form of W800 and W900 LOL.

  • i want sony ericss w900

  • wow this board has got to have the most people who loves a particular unit I literally cant see much of people who posts their qualms regarding the unit w900 must have been a very awesome phone hehehe

  • lol! @ Calvin,im using 3GP CONVERTER and using the PSP setup,lol im embarassed the W900 is only my 2nd SE, my 1st was W800

  • Hi C4lvin, guess what, im from Medan, same hometown with your grandparents but now i'm working in Jakarta :). Were you born in Medan? Talking about W550, i have also owned it for few months before switch to W810, and before W550, I'm using T28, T39, and K700 (yeah, I'm Ericsson Mania). Its definitely the loudest phone on earth, however, one thing that makes me a bit down is the camera quality, some VGA phone even have better result than 1.3 MP W550, but luckily my W900 now show best output in camera hehehe. May be I can help to offer you suggestion regarding video converter. Now i'm using the Plato Video ( either 3gp or mp4)to convert video files ( i.e WMV, AVI, etc) into 3gp or mp4. This converter has very good output, u may even choose the size that suits with full screen (240x320) and also choose the quality. But anyhow, may be Tsepz can also offer you some software to convert into 3gp/mp4.

  • @Tsepz hahahahaha... More video on W900, more love on W900...:) What computer software u used to convert? Sometimes i've problem with the converter... So, I can't load all my favourite videoclip... T-T Hope for ur answer...

  • LOL oh okay thanx @ Calvin, yep the W550 definetly is the loudest becoz of its dual speakerz, ive just loaded two more mp4 videos on my W900 they are: T.I.-WHAT YOU KNOW and T.I.-WHY YOU WANNA that just made me love my phone more,the videos look soooo good! especialy the WHY YOU WANNA video,it looks very smooth and the sound is brilliant

  • Hi! the opinion without name below @tsepz and @W900 owner is mine......(C4LV1N) I forget to write the name hehehehehehehehehehe

  • Hi all here..... I've compared face-to-face, my W900 with W850, W550 and N73 Music Edition.... N73ME is the loudest one but the bass element is poor, W850 has a better quality with rich bass and good treble but if compared with W900, it has the same quality but W900 is much louder than W850..... W550 is the loudest walkman (maybe the loudest handphone ever....) but the quality of speaker heared like 'the thirsty' one without stability in bass and treble mixture.... (I set the same equalizer in all sector) sorry for the poor english....;)

  • Yes the W900 is using NVIDIA GRAPHICS CHIP, its the only SE using it! :-) to Tuber yes the W900 was discontinued last year in around JULY/AUGUST, you can stil get it new in some countries

  • @ Tsepz Is it right W900 used the NVIDIA GRAPHIC card???? Unbelievable..... Has SE used NVIDIA to their others handphone? It's funny...why SE not make the stronger fast port for this 'part of future'.....T-T have you try to change it in SE centre? My friend also like my W900.... 1st time he says SE is bad phone but when he saw the mr.bean movie and some videoclip....hohohohohohohohoho He gave up and says SE make a good handphone... @ W900owner thx.... I hope the 3rd one will be stronger.... now I haven't change it coz I'm studying in Singapore.... but this summer holiday I'll go back to Jakarta to fix this problem...:) I buy this phone in Medan when I visit my grandparent and my grandpa buy it for me as a present for study in Sg.;) 1st time I owned SE is S700 and used it untill now. When I pull up from my pocket, people will take a look at my S700.....cool!! after used 1 year, W900 launched but very expensive, so I buy W800 first Feb last year after that I want buy W900 at July but I prefer the wireless internet phone so I buy N80.... After I buy W900 at Sept and it makes my N80 just look 'xoxo'...... It beat N80 in all features except the wireless and yahoo messenger even I've upgrade my N80 to internet edition.... Do everybody know that W900 can used 8 GB Memory Stick Pro Duo???? I've seen the 8GB MSPRODUO AND it cost about $250...

  • i hear this phone is discontinued... is it still possible to buy this phone new, retail in hong kong? and how much will it be?

  • suba: have a software update on your phone at sonyericsson official site. they'll be guiding you through the rest of the process.don't worry coz it's user friendly and it won't make you confused.

  • people dr need some help wit my 900 here... it freezes often...

  • i own his younger brother, s700i im dreaming of owning this everynite!!! :( the price is comparable to k800i here in malaysia

  • To Calv1n hi, yep im from SA,yes i also hav problems with fastport always disconnecting when walking and listenin to music,i also had a W800 before geting my beautiful BLACK W900, my W800 also neva used to disconnect, the fastport of W900 is the only real problem wit da phone otherwise its a dam gud phone i love it! yes the video player is realy smooth ive got sum basketball,and music videos that play so beautifuly on the huge screen coz of the NVIDIA GRAPHICS CHIP. W900 is definetly THE KING of MULTIMEDIA, my frend has an N73 and i can see he stil lyks my W900, he always asks to see it lol

  • @C4lv1n , I have been using this masterpiece for about 1 month and i never regret to buy this phone, I'm quite lucky to buy it on Rp 3.825.000, and I trade in with my W810,so I just have to add around Rp 2.125.000 to get this phone since their valued my W810 on Rp 1.700.000. Anyway, hope ur 3rd fast port can work well now and never have problem again :) Btw, where did u buy that great phone? I bought it in ITC Cempaka Mas. @786, I think it's not only king of walkman phone, guess nobody would mind if you call it King of Multimedia Phone since all the features are KING compared with all phones in the same class.

  • is W900i really the KING of all Walkman phones?? i really do want to buy W900i i hope i get it sooooooon!!!!!

  • @W900 Owner I bought W900 6 months ago for about Rp. 5,600,000,- or $608 How much do you buy W900? how long U used this "master of handphone"? I think I must try to change the fast port again(the 3rd time...OMG -.-"), btw that's free at SE centre in Jakarta..:) @Tsepz Hi! are U from SA? nice to know U I've read you opinion and you find the fast port get lose. is it right? I find it lose also I've change it for 2x at SE centre and it's the same problem.... I used W800 before and the fast port never lose even I often fall it on the floor (never to my W900.....:)) Hope for your answer:) Btw the price of W900 in Indonesia is also higher N73 even W950.....Hahahahaha..... I'm really proud to my W900... it can held the value well The mp4 player really smooth(check it out!) I've tried that and mp4 can't be played in my N80 even the N73 hahahahahahahaha.........

  • Let me rephrase that, the W900 costs around $479-$574 lol, its held its value better than some carz out there

  • WOW! i just noticed that the W900 is more expensive than Nokia N73, the W900 is $479 its nearly $500 , whereas the N73 is around $400-$420 baring in mind the W900 was announcet in 2005 October and released in December 05 whereas the N73 was realesd end of last year (06) , the W900 has realy held its value very well, the P990 even dramaticaly droppd price and its the Flagship SE, im realy proud to be a W900 owner im just amazed by how this phone has kept its value so so well

  • hi guys.. anyone here could help me how to update/upgrade my firmware?? tnx..

  • Hi C4Lv1n, nice to have W900 fellow from same country. For the fast port problem, it didn't happen to me as i very seldom use the fast port to use the headphone, except when charging or using cable data, but the port work just fine and never lose, hopefully this will last for long. So, how long have u been using this great phone? How much u bought that time?

  • The W900 sound quality is way better than W810. the N73 is alot clearer in sound quality but W900 is a lil bit louder. W900 camera pics are realy clear becoz of the Graphics Chip, i thnk W900 camera pics realy do rival N73 pics and video recording of W900 is way beta than N73

  • To Tsepz I have one final question.Is the sound quality better than w810?And compared to n73,this one wins overall,right?and are the pic clear like the n73?

  • ya this is a sexy phone, and i own one. might be planning to get w810.

  • Hi @W900 0wner! I also from Indonesia the best thing that I've ever had is the SE W900i....;) I have question to you Do you find any lose on the fast port conn.??? (especially the HF) because it's really no stuck or even i can say that it never connect. I must put my phone in the pouch with the HF in the bottom pouch and it can stuck. Is it all W900 users find problem same like me??(please answer...:)) P.S I've change the fast port 2x in SE center and buy the other HF(HPM-85) but it's only occur for the 1st week, after that it getting lose again -.- but beside that all... I really love this SE W900I more than my Nokia N80(I buy this phone for only the wireless...)hehehehehehe Hope for your answer......

  • SEXYIEST FONE EVA MADE BY SONY ERICSSON !!! Even though i have a W810i, the W900 beat it by far !!! I am currently in begging process to my parents to buy it for me !!! I love it I want it I need it I will DIE without it LATEZ PPL xoxoxoxoxo MIA

  • Well am a real fan of the W900i since it was 1st announced.. my friend do own one and after using it, i maintain that it a indeed a very nice phone loaded with lots of features.. I have made up my ming to buy one in the near future but the only thing that am afraid of is if its stopped being on sale, imean have it really stopped being saled????? Can you help me friends??

  • I definetly agree @ W900 Owner, yep at no.1 is NOKIA to ere in SA. one of the major reasons that lead to it being discontinued was becoz it was realy expensive to make,the NVIDIA GRAPHICS, HUGE MEMORY GUD CAMERA,HUGE SCREEN etc. . . and on top of that it was made in JAPAN, SONY ERICSSON also added that the W900 was mainly a testing field for most new technology they had lyk WALKMAN, CYBERSHOT,GRAPHICS CHIPS, LOUD SOUND etc. . .so it realy wasnt meant to be made at mass market, thats u find that W900 is a great allround multimedia device

  • Tsepz, In my country, W900 also described as fail product in marketing terms, i dun know why, may be because at first release, the price is so high, i don't even have budget to buy W900 at that moment, may be the price is one of few factor that makes w900 drop in sales. I also count myself very lucky to get this phone finally at "cheap" price for such wonderful phone though have to wait for more than 1 years. Anyway, in Indonesia, Sony Ericsson market have reached No 2, no need to mention who is the No 1, rite? I sincerely hope Sony Ericsson will be No 1 for future because its products never fail to amaze me, don't you agree? :)

  • Thanks for your help but I have tried with an original USB cable and then brought a aftermarket one and still no luck, I brought it to a mobile phone repairing place and they couldnt fix it... it is not under warrenty as I had it for some time now...AHHHH this is horrible... I may have to get another one, has anyone got any idea of which is a good phone to replace a w900i? i found it very difficult to find one that has features that satisfy me like the w900i... Thanks anyway man!

  • Thanks for your help but I have tried with an original USB cable and then brought a aftermarket one and still no luck, I brought it to a mobile phone repairing place and they couldnt fix it... it is not under warrenty as I had it for some time now...AHHHH this is horrible...

  • @llaw19: then again, it could be as simple as a defective USB cable. try to use another cable and if that doesn't fix the problem, might be the firmware. saves a trip to the service center tho...good luck

  • llaw19: might be a firmware glitch. i suggest you take it to where you got the unit if it's still under warranty or just take it directly to an Ericsson service center in your place.

  • My w900i can not be recognised by the computer! the screen asking you to chose File transfer or phone mode showed up and I selected file transfer but the compputer just doesnt recognise it, no popup, not showing up as a removable drive, not even a installation wizard! Can any one help? ALSO after trying to connect and disconnect a few times, I cant receive messages any more! I have to switch off and switch on again to receive some of the messages and it keeps coming even I have deleted it and it wont save into inbox.... the whole message operation is stuffed! I want to flash it but I CANT CONNECT TO THE COMPUTER!!!!! I can send out messages just fine though.... there goes my W900i... man, I loved that phone and I want to but another if this one cannot be fixed... there arent any other like the W900i... Please help me...

  • No problem @ Dee, im glad to help :-) ,wen u get ur W900 make sure u buy a 1gb or more memory card for it and you will LOVE IT! this phone can keep up with a NOKIA N73 in multi-media: music, pics, video, gaming, and internet browsing

  • Thanks Tsepz. That's all I needed to hear. I bow to you for your quick reponse too. Guess I'm gonna be another proud owner of a W900!

  • Nice one @ W900 OWNER, yep here in SA we hav K790 and K800 BUT we mostly hav the 3G phones, we hav all the SONY ERICSSONS that are available,the W900 had a realy bad release here thou,it was delayed for a while then after that it was only available for about 5-6months then discontinued so it didnt do too wel, i count myself as one of the lucky few who got the last shippment of W900s in SA. YEP im planning to keep it for a while, i kept my W800 for 6months then got W900

  • @ Tsepz , nice to hear that u are doing good there,I'm also doing good , thx :) Glad to hear that u will keep the W900 even when u plan to get new one. I also wanna get new phone for secondary phone,so im not going to sell my beloved w900, i will keep it. Im plannig to get SE k790, Do SA have this type of phone?

  • I hav bought this hp for around 1 year..i found dat there is a problem..everytime when i chat with my fren with headset,the headset might be loose..i hav sent it to the SE centre, but they cant found any problem..did sum1 who use this hp met this problem?..

  • Nope the swivel mechanism is very riliable and durable on this phone Sony Ericsson made sure of that,thats why this phone and the S700 are quite bulky,the joints are big,strong and well put into place, ive been using my W900 for the last 8months now and i have NEVER had any problems with swivel mechanism

  • Hi. can any long time user of this phone tell me if they've had any problems with the swivel open-shut mechanism? There are too many people here where I am, saying that such types of phones are not strong enough and tend to break, etc. at the join? Thanks so much

  • Nope unfortunetly you cant turn the WALKMAN1.0 to a 2.0 its nt possible yet @ jack wen it comes to size yes K800 is beta BUT the W900 is way beta than K800,the only thing K800 realy has over W900 is the 3.2mp camera, otherwise the W900 kills K800 in every other way no doubt!

  • actually there is some JAVA to help u turn off the sound n the flash of the camera.i am owning it.u can shut the camera sound by turning into silent mode.about the flash,u can turn it on,off or auto whenever you want.but,honestly,this phone is quite bulky.prefer k800 if i have another chance to choose.

  • To Tsepz Thanks again.Will i be able to find the newer version of the music player.That means the 2.0 version?

  • elo sirs some guy is selling me his what used to be locked to vodafone now debranded w900 for 13000 php about $240-$250 USD says that in his w900 you can turn off the flash and the camera sound I have a question what are the disadvantages, compared to that of an openline unit, of having a phone locked to vodaphone then debranded? any limitations to the features that may have been imbeded by the vodaphone brand? is it true that one can actually turn the flash and the sound of this unit while taking pics and videos? any help would be greatly appreciated thanks sirs

  • I'd never try using Sonyericsson

  • Patrick, you commented that there is no fast forward and rewind functions in the W900i. This is not so, hold down the number six for FAST FORWARD and hold down the number 4 for REWIND.

  • Hey guys, I can hardly find negative feedbacks for this phone, and hence, I am planing to buy it. One thing that i concern is, this phone is using walkman 1.0, can I upgrade it to walkman 2.0? and can I update the firmware to use animated themes with vertical menu? which is what w710i has.. thanks in advance. Have a nice day =)

  • @ Peji, yep i just noticed,the site was shutdown,i dnt hav any other site to download 3D games frm nw :-(, To Jack: 30hour playback when phone is switchd off means that if you play the music frm the phone whilest its in FLIGHT MODE, wen in flight mode the phone cn only play MUSIC and VIDEOS al the other functions are turned off, the phone is abit slow but not too slow,you wil find that the phone plays its ANIMATIONS very slowly becoz of the GRAPHICS ACCELERATOR otherwise nt too bad,it can take both 4GB and 8GB memory cards,im only using a 1GB on mine thou

  • To Tsepz What do they mean by this,"up to 30h playback if the phone is switched off"? Can you pls tell me.Is the phone slow?Can we use a 4GB memory card on this?

  • @ Tsepz thanx for the site .but it eems that the site is unavailable or st like that! cuz i cant find it with yahoo,google and my adress bar. they keep telling the site is unavailable or not exist!

  • @ W900 Owner, im all gud thanx and you? yep my W900 restarts itself if i listen to music too much,i actualy left it Vodaworld yesterday to get a Software Update,ive just come bak home with it now,so far so gud. if i do get the P990 im going to keep my W900. I love it too much to sell it!

  • @ Tsepz, long time no chat, how are u doing there? Have ur w900 ever restarted itself? How frequently is it if it is so? Mine sometimes restart (not too frequently though, can be said very rare) when i want to use some commands like open pictures,or open sms. Do u know what is the problem? Btw, if you really buy P990, will u sell your w900 or just buy p990 without selling w900, just curious to know :)

  • The battery life is fine, no it doesnt last for more than 2days, i charge mine everyday. The video quality is superb, its as gud as the NOKIA N93 vid quality. the FM radio is in the headset the phone comes with (HPM-80) it works great only problem is that it doesnt hav RDS but its stil realy gud

  • To Tsepz Thanks.And one more thing,how about the battery life.Is it good?Can it last for 3days?And is the video quality good?How does the FM work?

  • @ Jack, one the big points of the W900 is that it was realy made for MUSIC, VIDEOS AND MOVIES so the backlight doesnt turn off whilest watchng a video or movie

  • To harry Can you tell me how long does the battery last?Is it easy to charge it?And also when your watching a video,does the light go off after few seconds?Cos i have a K700i and the light goes off.Pls reply soon.......

  • ive switch to w900i and im very satisfied with the features and the camera and the music player gosh its so great!!

  • I live in South Africa @ jin, ye everything you are saying is so true,it feels so gud to hav a rare phone with so many features,two of my frends hav W850 and another two hav K800 and one has a Nokia N70 and all of them cant get enough of my phone, all of them wantd to get it but it was too late,i was one of the few last people to get this phone new on a contract upgrade ere in South Africa middle of last year,i thnk its gud this phone was discontinued becoz i would hate it if everyone had it,like how so many people here hav K800 W850 W800 W810 and W300, and im starting to see alot more P990s nw,bt i love P990 i mite get it,nt too soon though,im stil enjoying my W900

  • confused, ya get random people looking at you and this phone when you bust it out (ya gotta look cool when you swivel it open with one hand only!! and don't forget the katana swish sound). yeah take the w900 over the w850 any day. well, my relatives in the philippines say they go for about 16000 PHP and above for a used one at a place called greenhills. checked ebay philippines and they are pricing it up for bids at $250 and up. here in the us it goes for about $450-$500 brand new on ebay. hope this helps.

  • hey tsepz, what city/country do you live in? i've only seen one other person here in washington state since last year (i actually was gonna buy his for $310. good thing i held back, as the one that i got right now is in pristine and mint condition. just traded my w810i and gave the guy $200. pretty good deal if ya ask me.

  • NICE one,i also got this rare black beauty @ jin, yes the W900 can stream live tv beautifuly on its huge display @ liviu, TAKE W900 over W850 any day @ Confused,the W900 is way beta than the W850 hence y they didnt name W850 a W910

  • hey there, hello to all w900 owners here in the west coast. i am also one of the many satisfied owners of a w900. i've had mine for a month now and everything's smooth (sans the slow loading time if you start the phone on a cold winter morning and whatever screen menu you're on lags for about 5 seconds if you put your 2GB sony ms card back on the phone---it's a faster and better way to put stuff on your phone instead of using the usb function). got this rare black one with the screen cover still on and just minor marks on the part where you hook the edge of the crystal clear case--can't even see nothin with the case on. traded my brand new 1 month old w810i (crappy display and pixelated, horrible quality vids and pics even with newest firmware and it's unlocked and unbranded too) for this rare gem. awesome quality on calls and pictures, 3d gaming, 30fps video....what else can a w900i owner ask for? maybe a new firmware that actually speeds up the phone process instead of slowing it down even more!!! oh yeah, i also ditched me ipod for this so maybe a walkman 2.0 update if possible. peace!

  • I have a question for all W900 users: I know this phone has video streaming but can you watch live tv on it??? I've been wanting this phone since it first appeared and I hope I'm going to get it so, please responde

  • LOL! same ere @ PejiGrim, the headphones jack is a problem,ive also bn embarrsd by it a couple of times lol, heres a wapsite with alot of games for the W900,you must go to 3D GAMES:

  • it's really very nice .. and everyone asked me about it .. i always say sony ericsson is the best .. i like it soooo much

  • TsepZ, i completley agree with everything u say about this fone.aftar one year i'm still proud of rhis fone and when i get it out of my pocket evry one keeps lookin' at it ! the only con to me is that it's fast port for headfone is very loose and it keeps embarrassing me in front of others!! any way my question is fo u know any good site for downloading free games and softwares?? specialy nice games like those 3 pre installed ones in the fone it self????? thanx

  • Just wondering....does anyone here talks about W900?

  • hey dey askd me to log out

  • god u take so long yaa.. keep refreshin it every 5 mminutes plz....i told robin sir to get it fixed....lets c how long does it take....or u cum here next to me yaa...its not cold here

  • lolz lmao ..wats all this love stuff going on underneath lol..??????????

  • why is this phone discontinued? anybody? i guess my miserable dreams hv been shattered, i was waiting for it to come to india :).. but any negative feedback abt this phone ppl? let me know .

  • m sure though that the fones definitely bater any day den any other thing alive rite now........

  • heya tsepz...getcha bud....but den again if u look at the features i guess W950iDOESNT HAVE A CAMERA...its no hassle for quite some time but den afer a while u know it might bother me...I WUD LUV TO HAVE W900 BUT DEN ITS DISCONTINUED SO guess wud go wit what u say n get a w850i....thanx

  • The loudest WALKMAN phone is the W550/W600 with its two loudspeakers its by far the loudest, the W900 is actualy louder than the W850, the older WALKMANS tend to be louder than the new WALKMANS take W800 and W810 , W800 was realy loud whereas W810 is not that loud, i found that W810 is i thnk the quietest WALKMAN out of all,the W950 is i thnk even louder

  • In all of the Walkman Series, the song quality of this phone is the best, if you want the loudest, then go with W850, it is the loudest Walkman. W900 sound quality is not as loud as w850, but it is clear and crisp.

  • Tsepz is right, here in indonesia they still have some new stocks for both color , white and black until today,I knew it because near my house got sony ericsson centre and the price is around US$ 430.I'm so lucky to buy this new phone about few weeks ago. When W900 come out in Indonesia, I already confirmed this is my dream phone, unfortunately then the price was so high, so i have to wait patiently until this year, and it paid off, I got my dream phone with reasonable price :) Long Live W900 and Long Live Sony Ericsson. No doubt, this phone will become the great legend in sony ericsson history.

  • yup its discontinued almost everywhere so whats the best thing worth buyin now from the walkman series.....

  • Yes the W900 does hav a WALKMAN button,look at the above picture of the phone luk at the side of the phone that silver thng near the top thats the WALKMAN button. the W900 is using WALKMAN1.0 the W900 was discontinued all over the World except for places like Indonesia where they stil hav sum new stock, here in SA the W900 is quite rare, i love the fact that ive got a rare phone lol ive only seen 2ppl with it in real life,ive got a Black one,which is apparently the rarest in UK!

  • who cares if this phone is a lil old. at least the features r good and updated. and its still up to date these days.

  • its too bad that this w900i (that i have) is discontinued in canada and usa. y they do that? this phone is still so good. and im very lucky to have this handset.

  • i reallly want this phone...but what version is the Walkman player 1.0 or 2.0 ????

  • does this phone have a "walkman" button

  • really this phone is $975 nowadays

  • guess its round 450$ nowadays.....

  • look at the damn thing i certainly think its the daddy of all....the fone has killer looks that catch me everytime but the thing is that its kinna delusion wedr to go 4 SEW900 or SEW880 or SEW830....CANT SAY WHICH ONES KOOLER functions wise....

  • Patrick your W900 must hav sum messd up firmware! my W900 records videos for as long as ive got phone memory or memory stick depending where i want save the video afterwards, and another thng wen Walkman i can fastforward and rewind both VIDEOS and MUSIC. so u must hav a bug in your firmware

  • It's a very nice phone but what i'm having problems with is the charger port desing, they could've made much simpler ports that can easily embed on the phone without a hasle. 2ndly, the shouldn't have made long video capture dependant on the Memory stick coz if you don't have a memory stick then you can't vediorize for more than 1 min. 3rdly, the alarm feature is redundant. 4thly, there's no fast forwarding/rewinding feature in the walkman. otherwise it's a good phone.

  • Thanks for the info, Tsepz. I'm getting this phone, hopefully next month. It's becoming kind of a rarity in my country and the price hasn't dropped at all.

  • @Kel, wel the W900 is a VIDEO RECORDING rival to the NOKIA N93, both phones shoot videos at 30fps, bt wat makes N93 beta ere is dat it shoots in .mpeg format whilest W900 does .3gp ,the W900 is actualy beta than the latest WALKMANS in most categories, it has the best 2mp camera with Auto Focus, the W900 is the ONY WALKMAN phone that shoots videos at FULL SCREEN QVGA (320x240) resolution, its got the biggest screen out of the JAVA WALKMAN PHONES! sumthng that puts the W900 in a league of its own is da fact that it comes with 470mb internal memory which is expandable to 8GB nw, the phone runs with no problem with the 4GB MEMORY STICK! another reason is that its running the higher end 3MP NVIDIA GRAPHICS CHIP (GoForce 4800), ive put sum music videos that play at 30fps full screen resolution on my W900 and the fact that it has that NVIDIA GRAPHICS ACCELERATOR makes the videos luk realy gud and play smoothly, this phone rocks!

  • I've thinking about getting this phone. This is one of the older phones & has been on the market for quite awhile. I am worried that newer & better phones will be out soon. Plus the fact that this phone is kinda of expensive. So all you W900 lovers, please tell me the advantages of getting this phone. Would love a detailed comparison between W900 & phones from Nokia Nseries. I need reasons to choose this phone over N93. Does it by any chance lag with usage of 4GB memory card? Any other software defect? How good is mobile gaming with W900?

  • I am loving this phone very much the sound quality is better than the w880. I recorded my son and used it in court the judge was very impressed. I belong to fathers for justice a worldwide group.wow its so cool Keep supporting SE you are not alone. I love SE believe me.

  • for the guy from the Philippines: I got my phone at greenhills, 2nd hand. They sell it around 14k-16k. The ones that sell it cheap like around 13k either don't include the original headset, box and manuals or are really messed up. I got mine for 14.5k. Really good condition. The previous owner, they say, used it for 4 months but had it traded in because she wanted to upgrade her phone. I think it helps when a girl owned the phone previously. There are less marks and stuff. Just be sure to test EVERYTHING out. The swivel shouldn't worry you. It's really solid. Once you get your W900, take real good care of it and enjoy this wonderful wonderful phone!

  • @ndaru, nice to get to know someone from my country also using w900. Very opposite to u, my 3G always shown everytime, ven when i'm not want to use the network, quite funny, eh? Anyway, the 3G network didn't show on your phone may be because of several reason as below : - your operator doesnt support the 3 network (Currently, only XL and Telkomsel that serve 3G best, Indosat only serve 3G for Matirx user, so Mentari user will NOT able to use 3G yet) 3. Your operator provides 3G but the area you are staying haven;t been supported by 3G network (Please note that not area in Indonesia covers the 3G network) 4. you haven't registered your phone to your operator to activate your 3G. So, may I know what operator you are using now and which area you are staying?

  • @mykster� are you from the philippines? browse the site www.bidshot.com and you can see all phones that are for sale. i got mine thru bidshot for only 12thou pesos and its all complete and in very good condition.

  • @W900 Owner or anyone...... Plz help!!!! Why my w900 doesn't have GSM/3G Network in Mobile Network folder? It's only new search, select network, search mode, and preffered network in the Mobile Network folder. Is it something wrong with my firmware? or anything else?

  • and 1 last thing how much is it in bidshot?

  • @ bluepotato bidshot!? where is it located is that a shop? that's the 1st tym i heard it..*stewpid* waiting for your reply.

  • mykster actually, slim phones are less durable than big fatty phones like this one. and let me tell you that this is very sturdy and reliable as SE always makes solid construction out of their phones. the only already died issue is their joystick used before the K750.

  • @ mykster� dont buy at greenhills, the gave an ordinary headset and not the HPM-85. try posting @ bidshot. I got my w900i there cheap but in very good condition. im loving this phone!!!

  • there's a lot of positive terms to describe this fone but i'm just worrying about swivel most of the fone folded type,slide or swivel is sensitive how u can assure me guyz it's durable sorry for being so skeptical... i'm dying to get this fone

  • The W900 is alot beta than the W810, even thou the W810 is a brilliant phone,the W900 is just way beta

  • @noname, i can only tell you that i sold my w810 to get the new w900 and i'm prouder to hold w900 and there are some improvement on w900 than w810, so i strongly suggest you to buy w900 than any available phone at the moment, it can even compared and win over some new released phones.

  • @ bluepotato, i have never had that charging error,maybe ther is sumthng wrong with your battery or maybe its a bug that comes with the new firmware. unfortunetly you cant set different ringtones for different Profiles, you can only set ringtones in SOUNDS and ALERTS if ur W900 is vodafone branded, or in SOUND SETTINGS if ur W900 is not branded

  • the W900 is realy durable and solid, ive dropd mine so many times and its stil working perfectly and luks as gud as new especialy in day light. @ Mykster, you wil not be dissapointed

  • is there anybody could tell me regarding the durability of the w900 bcoz i'm planning to buy a 2nd hand @ greenhills so i'm a little bit skeptical so pls give me a feed back this is urgent so i can buy this fone & i wish my credit card will never be declined again wahe3...

  • im a first time SE user and w900 is my first. i sold my N70 for this..hehe im having a problem charging. sometimes when i charge my phone its says charging error. whats the problem with that? and second, it seems that i can edit my profiles ringtone but all profile will have the same ringtone. how can i change it? other than those problems this phone is awesome!! btw, i have the latest firmware.

  • @ Noname , i'm not sure about the firmware to fix your problem if white screen problem keep appeared,it happened to me last time, my W810 screen keep white and keep restart everytime after few seconds,this is happened after i take out the cable data from computer without turn off the safety icon, the only way to fix your phone may be go to sony ericsson center and ask them to install the firmware, usually they take no charge fee.

  • hi may i know how to put the alert sounds on my earphones? cause everytime i put it on its the phone that sounds off and not on my earphones.

  • i hav a w900 for a couple of months now,,,, i have this problem about the games application, i just use my usb to download my games,, and then after downloading i try to install it to my phone,, and then my is not working properly everytime i download a game it will restart,, and the game is not installed,,,, can somebody help me with this problem plsssssss?

  • Hi everyone i have a W900i and just had it flashed but now only get a white flashing screen, so i need the original firmware that was on the phone does anyone know where i can download this, please help thanks.

  • @ Tsepz, I sometimes turn off my phone sometimes don't, but mostly i turn it off to save the battery. The camera quality is good, even better compared with k750 or w810,because i own w810 before and my bro own k750,and for the video, it's SUPERB, the best in its class of all 2mp camera, even can compared with 3.2 mp camera i guess. @ Bloat, thanks for your advice. In my country, when i select the "select network" it comes out with a lot of choices(a lot of providers), and my main provider provides 2 choices, it is GSM and 3G,so of course i choose to use GSM since i very rare use 3G servises, and everytime after i choose the GSM, the GSM network only shows for seconds, after that, it automatically shows the 3G sign again. Anyway, i can cope with that situation now, may be it's my provider that make it like that since they are the one in charge for GSM and 3G.

  • about the 3G/GSM... Did you choose GSM only at the "select network" part of the "mobile networks" folder or did you choose GSM only at the "GSM/3G networks" part of the "mobile networks" folder? I just set it to GSM only on the "GSM/3G networks" part. If that's already what you did, try setting both.

  • Yep i charge mine every nite since i use mine alot for music and internet, i always turn it off wen i go to sleep,an u? how are you finding the camera and video quality?

  • Yeah Tspez, i guess u right, the 3G sign only shows that im in 3G hot spot without actually activate the network. Anyway, did you often charging your W900 battery, i normally charge it after 1,5 days , how about you? Do you switch off your phone when sleeping?

  • WOW thats weird @ W900 buyer, it shud stay as GSM, ive also switchd my 3G off, i only switch bak to 3G when i want to download music or any other big files that are more than 2MB, but im nt to sure why yourz goes bak to 3G/GSM and doesnt stay as GSM, tel me after you've switchd to GSM only and you go bak to the settings is the phone set bak to 3G/GSM? coz maybe yourz displays the 3G icon just to tel u that you are in a 3G HOTSPOT but it doesnt actualy use the 3G network since u hav turnd it off

  • yo, Tsepz, allow me bothering you with another question again hehehe....do u know how to make the 3G network inactive? because everytime i set the network to GSM, the 3G network will still appears after few seconds. This 3G network seems to consume my battery life quite fast. Thanks in advance for your advice :)

  • LOL thanx man,its not a problem at all, i love helpin fellow W900 userz @ W900 BUYER. try checking eBay @ sgnt squeek, they hav alot of W900 black housings/covers

  • @Tsepz , thanks a lot for your helpful information regarding the fullscreen video. If not because of your help, i may be wondering forever how to fullscreen my video hehehe. Well, may be the film will not be as clear as in original size but i'm personally love to watch big screen ( this is my main reason to buy w900, big screen with best video quality) Nevertheless, I'm so lucky to own this greatest phone and even more lucky to know you who can be counted to guide new user like me, thank you very much Tsepz :)

  • NICE! mine is also Black,they look so sleak and stylish in Black. OH yea u can play ur W810 vids in full resolution on ur W900, just use the WALKMAN PLAYER and wen the video starts click MORE and select Fullscreen, but rememba dat wen u do dat it stretchs the video resolution to 240x320 wich makes the video nt luk so gud since the video's original resolution is alot smaller

  • @Tseptz , my W900 is black, I always like black color, what is yours? O yeah, sorry to bother you again but I am wondering if we can play in full screen for video with size 176 X 144 ? It's because I transfer the video file from my w810 and when i play the video in my new W900 but the display in screen is rather small. Thanks in advance for your advise :)

  • OH yeah sorry i meant mp4 lol, thats great man @ W900, u r realy gona love it!! na dont look at the battery rather look at the battery compartment under the battery ther its written made in JAPAN, mine says made in JAPAN and the battery is made in China! So wat colour is your W900? @ W900 BUYER

  • @Tsepz , just bought W900, faster than my plan which should be next week, can't resist the temptation to own this cool masterpiece hehehe....SO PROUD to own it now!!!Eventhough have just did trial on K800 (Sony is showing exhibition in the mall near my house), my heart still goes to W900 , because i dun see much different in 2 megapixel camera with 3.2 megapixel, and thanks to much positive respond regarding W900 on this site. Btw,Sony Indonesia announced this phone is made in Japan, but when i check my w900 battery, it stated made in China and finished in china, is your w900 battery also like that? And one more thing Tsepz, it can't play MPEG file, i just tried it, it only can play 3gp and mp4, but it won't be a big deal because I just amazed by other features in this phone, especially the big screen, gonna love this phone for long long long time to come hehehe.

  • No problem, WOW! you guys in Indonesia are lucky! unfortunetly no SONY ERICSSON dont put that on their phones so you cant lock anything, not even messages,no firmware helps with that i dnt understand why SE dnt put file lock in their phones

  • Tahnks @ Tsepz. I know I can count on u when comes to w900 question. Anyway, can we lock the folder in file manager with password? Which firmware i should download to? Lucky in my country, Indonesia, they still have new stock for w900, so i may get it by next week. Can't wait to hold that masterpiece :)

  • sup guyz I need some help Im trying to watch initial D on my w900 and when it starts up its fine but the next 5 seconds it goes mute anyone know why and how I can play it without any problems?

  • hi there every one can any one tell me tht frm where i can get the firmware is there any site from where i can download it if yes then plz do mention it and if it is possible then mail me the adress on my id thx by every one take care

  • LOL @ W900 BUYER WIL BE, ye the W900 can play MPEG and 3gp videos at 30fps in 320x240 screen, bt it doesnt support AVI

  • Dear all w900 lover, is there any way that w900 can play video in mpeg or avi format? I'm currently using w810 but plan to change to w900 since the screen is lot bigger. Me, myself is Sony Ericsson lover, even when Ericsson was still single brand.

  • you know what would be really cool.... if you can change the skin of your walkman menu hehehehe.... staring at a bright orange background while browsing your playlist can be really boring.

  • LOL @ frooty,dats cul i ran athletics at ur skul last year lol, shame man,ye dis phone rules! hope you are able to get it,its very rare and especialy ere in SA, if u cnt find it id suggest u get a W850

  • I go to Heron Bridge College,the thing is,i lost my phone so...ya,i wanna get dis one

  • Switch it into SILENT mode, then the camera sound wont be heard...

  • how do you shut down the camera sound?

  • man u horny guy, u take upskirt pics?? lol. ya i know this phone is still really good. and i have a black one. one thing i dont like about it is that the keypad is not bright. also, this phone has a little bit better battery life that w800 right?

  • n95 can own this.... but i would still say that w900i was really a great phone and it is the greatest phone by sony.... anyway, i used to take upskirt pics and pictures in girls toilet with this.... good camera with no shutter sound

  • i think the phone is number 1 at the moment.i mean it's got the looks, the features are amazing.its really the phone you wudnt be afaid of taking it out of your pocket anywhere anytime.well done!!!!!!!!!!

  • Oh i want the Gsm Sony Ericsson W900i

  • This is THE BEST piece of technology ever

  • graet phone with coolmp3...just bulky

  • You dOnt realy have to download new firmware unless ur fone is acting up or if you want jus update for the fun of it,updating can improve somethings and ruin others,apparently the latest firmware for the W900 improves the video performance in bothe recording and playback.im nt sure about downloading movies,bt ye u can convert the ones u have

  • questions: 1. Do I HAVE TO download new firmware? What for? 2. Is there a site where I can download full movies or do I have to convert movie files into .3gp/.mp4?

  • sumthn u gta rememba is that the W900 is ova a year old and that wen it came out most 3G phones were huge in size,and sumthn else u gta kp in mind is that its a swivel phone and N73 is a candybar fone, swivels tend to b bigger e.g 7373, S700-(wich is a little bit bigger than W900 and is wat W900 is based on) also the S600 and W550/W600 wich are pretty thick phones. nw W900 is A 3G SWIVEL so id say its a gud size

  • i ws amazed how big this handset was when my freind got it, the N73 is slimmer than this handset.

  • Thanx guys! i had hecticly tite time! loved it all! true that @ frooty, im 17 now!

  • well,happy birthday Tsepz,but if i was u i would of waited till they had 2gig in stock,and i didnt know they had 4gig,i would not mind gettin dat,nd by da way,i was just wonderin,how old r u?????

  • Happy Birthday to you Tsepz SE W900i! Wishes MORE Extra GB to come ;))

  • try out www.lasyk.net @ synergy, they hav alot for W900/K800/ W800/ K750 etc. . .

  • i lost my software cd. can anyone tell me where can i download a pc suite for w900i? thanks.

  • Yow im close to you bra,im in Dainfern @ Frooty,and im nt to sure how much Vodaworld charges for fones man. lol no problem man @ w900i user,thanx for the info,im gna try to update my firmware nw,im taking my fone to Vodaworld for the firmware update and screen cleaning

  • I dont feel any changes with the video recording even thought the latest firmware. Still look so hizzy.

  • it a very very good phone .i like so much.but i feel that video recording is little hizzy (the video isnt so clear).so is new firmware will fix this or what?

  • Go n download the Sony Ericsson Update Service(SEUS)then install it. Use the USB fast-port connect your phone then follow the step by given on the Update Service.

  • is this the best sound system in walkman phone ? And by the way.... is the firmware available in the shops selling this phone ?

  • where i can get this firmware to upgrade my w900

  • Just upgrade my W900i firmware, n the latest version is R5BC004. Messaging slightly faster. N the video recording feel like little bit better, something like the video bitrate more higher. Camera didnt feel anything. But 1 thing feel disappointed is the video player, coz when its full screen, it cannot do like K800i can turn back into normal screen while the video still playing. Hope the next firmware version can improve that. By the way, thanks to Tsepez for answering my question. :-D

  • I thnk the latest W900 firmware is R5GB001, lol ive stil got the old end of 2005 R5AG001 firmware lol!

  • Does any 1 has same problem with the messaging when u open n read or selecting to delete the msg, is annoying slow. My W900i firmware is R5BB001. Is it the latest firmware has no tis problem?

  • Definatley W900,its alot louder than the W950, and their sound quality is the same (crystal clear)

  • ok im going for the best sound quality phone and louder speaker...which phone shoud it be? the w900 or w950?

  • Ay yow frooty where in SA u at man? coz if u here in JHB then check VODAWORLD in mid-rand im sure they got used W900s an maybe new1s bt i doubt new1s, an dnt wory we cul bra @ frooty

  • Frooty!!! No problem :-) As long as you own SE W900i, am not angry :)) Am branded now as Awie SE - the lady in orange ;))

  • Thats cul @ blinkguy, bt if you dont care about nt having a camera then get W950

  • thanks tsepz! im planning to get this phone or w950, still in doubt..

  • my w800 is better than this phone...8s oversize and its not com4table in texting, u need to swivel 8. but i love this phone its 30fps video rules!!! compare to nokia n93...w900 is more impressive.

  • Hi Tsepz: it seems am getting popular in this room even thou am absence for quite sometimes LOL! So this is what I got for being an owner of W900i :p

  • if this phone would have a txt reader it would be perfect. it sucks that nokia have more phones with OS, SE are much cooler.

  • lol @ Awie, NO some one is using the same name as me,since im nt registerd to GSMarena so i gues who eva it is hates da fact dat we get along lol. Ye da W900 has the best sound quality @ blinkguy,its the 2nd loudest Walkman after the W550-which has TWO LOUDSPEAKERZ, bt W900 has the best camera, best gaming since it has a 3D graphics card,and the biggest expandable flash memory eva made in a phone

  • ok let me get this straight..this phone have the best sound quality among all the other SE Walkman phones out there? and how bout the speakers? is it the loudest among all phones ??

  • To Tsepz: Why do u hate me now? :-) Because am not helping you in this forum for advised (ha-ha-ha) By the way I came back from Brussels and instead of Praline Chocolates I bought Multi Card Reader! (ha-ha-ha). I still like you Tsepz as long as you got W900i (he-he-he)

  • Lol @ bloat,that was me ye im getin it a 2gig mem stick, CANT WAIT! lol,ye i stil love dis phone,had it for about 8months wich is gud considering that i had my W800 only for 5months

  • ive had this phone for about a year now n it's the best phone ever!!

  • I agree about the headset...it comes off too easily. Whenever I'm in public transportation and it comes off, it's a bit emabarassing to the other people, especially when it's silent in the vehicle. But still, I can't get myself to dislike this phone. I just love it. Sound quality is perfect. It's the best among the walkman phones, even compared with the new versions. Someone posted that he/she's getting a memory stick for his/her birthday. I might do the same thing! Hehe I think when you get addicted to this phone, you really invest in it by getting it more memory, getting it a case to put it in and other stuff.

  • asalmalikom every one.i am using this fon from last 6 months.myy elder bro gifted mee in white.it has every thing taht a good fone needs 2 have butt one thing that is best of all is sound and display.its sound rocks.i soled it 1 month agoo then i gian bought it in black becoz any other set cannt take w9,s place.ALLAH HAFIZ

  • LOL ive got a clone nw lol! @ Awie, yow this phone is WAY beta than a LG CHOCOLATE @ frooty

  • i would jus like to say,im gonna ask my dad to get me this phone,i just love it,hola back if u think this fone is better than the chocokate,thanx

  • Ye i hav the same problem with the Fast Port! its the most disappointing and annoying thng about the fone,my W800 fast port neva used to be so loose,stil u gta love the W900 its got its pros and cons.

  • mmm as to black off as someone posted, i never had that problem nor did my friends. Maybe because those were the earlier ones?

  • this fone is realli great. one problem i found is that the fast port for this fone is really loose. anyone hav any ideas to fix it? like inserting some thin cards? it is very frustrating and embarrasing esp when the headset got disconected and then the fone is bursting out random music.

  • This phone is a great phone, but the bad thing about it is, it blacks off a whole lot...which is reallly annoying.

  • how much is it and were can i get it

  • the greatest phone of all. large memory and screen. with 3g connection plus 2mp with AF. but the radio is not a part of the phone. the walkman button is not sensitive. no play/pause button and cant use the volume/zoom button to change track when the screen is idle. but so far... this is the greatest walkman for international region.

  • Thats somethng ive neva understood about the W900,doesnt show a stand by clock after the screen saver,it jus goes blank as if its turnd off, u hav to press unlock to c the clock in the main screen wit wallpaper

  • yes, this phone blackout often. and i have this handset.when it turns to standby mode, it turns the screen blank, not like the w800i shows the time when in standby. for w900i it does not show u the time on standby.

  • R U SERIOUS!? thats so cul @ AWIE happy belated B-DAY!u r so lucky :-) ! oh ye apparently the memory cards are going to be upto 8gigs! sum bad news thou the W900 re-release is not happening looks it was just a mis-inturpreated rumor

  • Even up to 4GB David it's possible!!! To Tsepz Happy B-day!!! :-) nice gift for yourself. The date I got my W900i was my b-day also :) the rest like my BT HBH 600 headset and 2GB memory stick were all gifts. I bought a multi card reader too :))

  • Hey Awie!! :-) thats great hey! next wk friday is my b-day an im getin me a 2gb mem stick for my W900 so atleast load one full movie,and also geting a Play Station-3 YAY! bt im more excited to get dat 2gig, ive only got a 512MB mem stick rite nw wich ive realised is nt enuf

  • Hi everybody esp to Tsepz! :-) Getting nearer to my quest of transferring my 2 films to my W9001 :) My bestfriend's wedding and Meet Joe Black.

  • Can any body where i can get 1 now plssss........... the memory card is up 2 2gig i love that

  • the best phone in the market now

  • This is great phone, fantastic functions. HOwever, I am currently experiencing black outs.Dnt know why.

  • Am trying to buy this fone.....but i dont get this in the market..... And i heard that it is going to be re-released again....Is that true????? i need to know this.....plzzz.....any 1 frm south india(hyd,chennai)

  • UNFORTUNETLY not @ blinkguy, the WALKMAN1.0 and 2.0 are part of the firmware and there aint any firmware to change W900 WALKMAN1.0 playe to 2.0, sorry man, AND who eva said da W900 blanks out too much it al depends wat an how u use ur fone for, mine only restarts/boots lyk once or twice a month if i use internet alot

  • best fone i came across. very user friendly and too many features to mention. best sound u will ever hear on a fone.

  • can som1 answer my qns please.. can the walkman 1.0 be upgraded to 2.0 using the update service for this phone?

  • monk who said the w900i screen black out.its a good phone but buy a new one dont ever buy seconh hand phone

  • best phone everr even better than w950i, speaker,ringing tones everything user friendly

  • is it true that this phone blackout often? pls tell me...

  • by sony ericsson w900

  • the nokia phones are out and the reson they are breaking down so much is because they cant cope with all they put on them and there huge, the w900i is amazing an i agree it would be perfect if it had those things on, xx

  • SE you are the best

  • Same ere @ TC15, i love this phone too much, W880 looks so crap, W900 is stil leading the pack as the best all round WALKMAN PHONE

  • ow one more thing i like it alot more then a W880

  • i still love the w900 it looks the best and has good featchers i hpe they make a smiler model just litter smaller brtter camra(3.2) and G3.5 internet speed it wolled be perrfect

  • LOL oh okay @ bloat, nah u dnt realy hav to turn autofocus off,i leave mine on al da time,bt anyway lol apparently rite nw the only rival dis phone has interms of video is the Nokia N93

  • it costs around 14k-17k 2nd hand in greenhills. There are a number of second hand units so don't just go for the 1st one you spot. Look for the best deal. And make sure that everything's included. Some vendors give it at 13k but they don't include the headset and other stuff. I only encountered 1 brand new unit, it cost around 22 or 23k. I forgot how much exactly.

  • @ tsepz: hehe I already had it in normal mode when I shot my 1st few videos. The thing that I wasn't able to adjust was the autofocus. It should be turned off when taking videos.

  • can the walkman 1.0 be upgraded to 2.0 using the update service on the SE web?

  • An absolute great phone jo!!!! hehe

  • i wanna hav this kinda fone.....huhuhuhuhu.........nokia really sucks....yeah........keep it up SE...

  • YOW dis fone has da 2mp cam on da market,a huge screen, a 3D GRAPHICS ACCELERATOR by NVIDIA (GoForce 4800 chip) 470mb internal EXPANDABLE memory, it does videos at 30fps therz only a hand full of fones dat do dat, and on top of ala dat its a WALKMAN so who eva said it sucks an ala dat probably has no clue wat they talkn about, probably hav no education or cellphone knowledge!

  • im the person who spent that ammount on that phone an its great i love the twisl ike the 5500 its better than half the PHONES today my names jo

  • a load of hype over nothing i say, its a phone and a phone only - my freind spent �290 on this thing!! i think she is crazy to be honest myself, but will i eat my words??

  • LOL okay i jus checkd on my camera, bloat the reason y ur W900 is only doin 30secs is coz its set on FOR MMS in SHOOT MODE, so next time u r about to shoot a vid go into SHOOT MODE an select NORMAL that wil let u record for as long as ur memory wil allow u

  • LOL at bloat u havnt realised that wen u want to shoot a video longer than 30secs u gta go to Video mode or quality and choose HIGH QUALITY VIDEO that wil let u record for very long,ive recorded for about 1hour b4

  • sound is great,dj feeling,loud bose speakrs,

  • I'm really sorry for the mistake on my review of this wonderful phone. I've had it for a week and I didn't figure this certain part of the phone yet. It's about the video camera. When you take a video and your autofocus feature is on, it limits the video to around 500 kb or 30 secs. Remember to turn off the autofocus before shooting videos. I'm so glad I figured it out immediately. I love this phone even more now that I can shoot unlimited videos.

  • An unbiased comment from a W900 lover. I got this phone a week ago, 2nd hand. I was truly impressed by the features that it presented. But, as all of the things in this world, they're not always as they seem. This phone has GREAT features, but it also has a few down sides. The GREAT features of the phone: 1. The memory: It will never leave you wanting for more. But if you're the type who wants to fill your phone with all the mp3's in your computer, you can do something about it. You can use the memory stick. 2. The design: It's big. Yes critics have complained about it. I guess they're comparing it to new models which are actually to small to enjoy. It's big for a lot of reasons that overshadow its size. It won't feel great in your pocket, but as I said, the features just overshadow the size. The swivel design will somewhat keep you on your toes. You won't get bored with it. 3. The screen: It's just as clear as can be. I especially love the orange of walkman in contrast with the black faceof the phone. 4. Sound quality: It's very enjoyable. The bass options are really functional and you can hear the difference. The earphones direct the sound straight towards your eardrums. The loudspeaker is also amazing. It's really loud! 5. Usability: Coming from a nokia handset which truly is user friendly, I have no complains on the interface of this phone. It's so easy to get used to. Not much difference from nokia handsets. Now for the not so great features of the phone. 1. The headset connector: It just gets removed too easily. A little bit of a nudge to the connected headset will already disconnect it. It will automatically turn into loudspeaker mode. It's really a hassle when you're already enjoying your music. 2. The video length: I just wish that it could use up as much space on its memory as you would want it to. 30 seconds just aren't enough. 3. The messages: I don't know if this is true for all of the sony ericsson phones , but for most, it has a very limited space for messages. This is a pity, but at least it keeps your phone clean. You can erase the sent messages to solve your space problems. It also counts the sent messages. I didn't comment on the camera because I'm not a very knowledgable person when it comes to that. I just know that the zoom, the light and the full screen view are great. You be the judge when you compare the pictures with other 2 Mp cameras. Final word... This phone is uber cool. It was way over my budget but I've never regreted getting it. I had to choose between the Samsung D900 and this phone. A 3 Mp camera just didn't do it for me. I really recommend this phone if you're the type that wants something that has almost everything and wants something different. It has character and the features to match. I hope this post will help a lot of people.

  • that face warp feature is useless on my w900i phone.

  • @ Sony Ericsson, get the W900 it has way more internal mem than K800, IT has a bigger screen than a K800, it has less bugs, its the best SE at shooting videos, and has the best 2mp cam on the market,and a walkman media player

  • well i love this phone to the max,can anyone just give it t o me from the heart,i am in real love with this phone cos i love it and adore it so much

  • @ tosin, the 470mb mem only applies to ur music,videos,images, applications and other,otherwise the fone has a separate text msg memory that isnt dat much

  • i think the S E W900 is wicked n the mb is good

  • can any one plz tell me wat kind of memory the text message uses.i have just only about 100 texts on my phone n free memory of about 74mb but when i recieve a new text message,it shows you have used up 95% of the text memory.

  • im thinking of buying this fone.. can anyone tell me exactly how many msges it can store... cos thats one of my major concerns... thanks.

  • radio works by just plugging in your sony headset and selecting radio on the headset part of the phone. I love this phone to death and check out face warp feature in settings-applications. its hilarious

  • How you you find the battery life? I currently have a samsung E730 and have to charge it everyday. Nothing is more annoying!

  • Oh okay dats cul, 6600 is a true nokia classic, thats weird i thnk the only aac da phone supports is .m4a format,wen my frend sent an aac file frm hz N70 to me it changed or was an .m4a file and i was able to play it,bt dats weird dat da aac aint workin on yor fone,the fone is suposed to support .aac ,i havnt playd a proper .aac on mine,wil try thou

  • @tsepz: I had a nokia 6600 before this phone. How come when my friend sent me an aac file via bluetooth, it went directly to the "others" folder and not to the "sounds" folder?

  • @tsepz: That's too bad, I like keeping certain messages. Ericsson also counts the sent messages so I just erase those. I got the black one. It's really smooth and there aren't any scratches on the glass screen. Only problem with it is the center controls. I think the previous owner had sweaty fingers so it coroded the material. Thanks for the websites!

  • Wat colour is ur W900? what phone did u hav b4 it? @ bloat, and oh yeah another gud website for games and applications is www.diezil.wen.ru

  • NICE1 BRO @ bloat,im glad u got it an happy wit it,the prob wit SE is dat u cnt store to many msgs,i 4got how man u cn store,its nt to much thou, yes u cn store and play music via the media even if the song was bluetoothd to u, i do it al da time, a good website is www.lasyk.net

  • I got my w900 2nd hand for 14,500 pesos. I saw a brand new unit in greenhills for around 22 or 23,000. There are a lot of 2nd hand units in greenhills, you just have to be patient when looking at them. You have to look for the best deal. It also helps when you trade in a nokia unit which hasn't been phased out yet.

  • Ei guys I got my own W900 already! All I can say is that I love this phone. No regrets at all!!! I do have some questions though since this is my first time to use sony ericsson. 1. How many messages can I store all in all? 2. Can I get music from someone else's phone through bluetooth and play it in the music player? 3. What websites have good themes and other stuff for W900? 4. Is there any other folder that I can store my text messages? Thanks in advance for the help! :)

  • This is alot beta than a K800, al K800 got is a cam wit bigger resolution, W900 HAS the best 2mp cam on the market,the most expandable mem,and alot more PLUS its a WALKMAN phone

  • tis hp rocks like hell. has great features like e mp3, camera. & e design is unique, which is better than e other brands. Highly recommand to everi1 out there. GO get it Now!!!

  • a brand new W900i would cost roughly about "27-30,000" pesos. you can also get a 2nd hand of these babies in greenhills for a cost ranging from "15-19,000" pesos based on my scouting. a little reminder though. if you are planning on buying a 2nd hand phone, look for the models with minimal or without any scratches and notches on the screen and side. happy hunting for those with TIGHT budget. good luck.

  • and this phone looks better then w850

  • i love this phones cool look good features and has gr8 performance

  • aslamlaikom.plzz any one can tell mee how can i change firmwire an from where??plzz mail mee i will b veyr thank ful.take care ALLAH HAFIZ

  • very satisfied - S E handsfree kit in my car very soft on the speakers. How does the radio on this phone work - seems that I just cannot get it working - anybody out there care to explain. photos great, video okay, memory super, down load to PC fantastic inclusive syncronisation - great help on calender and saving tel nos. had the phone now since April 2006. Must upgrade and dont know what can beat this phone - any suggestions? Would prefer another Sony Ericsson!!! Probably have to go for the M700/X500 phones - your opinion please.

  • thanx Tsepz

  • Unfortunetly the W900 doesnt support A2dp or BT audio streaming, i wish they cud hav added it into a new firmware but it luks like SE hav abandond the W900 since its bin discontinued SE arnt adding new Firmware

  • sorry for many posts.. need help here guys.. are this stereo BT compatible with w900? Can we stream mp3 music using this stereo BT? Or we can only use it for answering calls? Is there any stereo BT headfone that we can use for streaming mp3 + answering calls? thx.. >> id=21466

  • Yow wat it is mayn @ diddy, na the camera on dis fone is actualy the best 2mp cam on a phone,with its huge lense and Auto Focus, AND ON TOP OF THAT the phone HAS a 3D GRAPHICS CHIP wich means the pics come out realy gud,nearly as gud as the K800 pics

  • its a veryyyyyyyy goood phone but the camera stincks 2mp i liked too be 3mp .........................................diddy in love

  • nice1 @ Awie, the only accesories ive got are the ones that came wit da phone LOL! Im using an I-POD video converter to do high quality mp4 videos, i just cant get enough of how beautifuly this phone displays the videos, the time for my phone upgrade is around 6months away an i dnt wana upgrade LOL this fone is jus to perfect,but we wil c if i dnt get a P990 or a Nokia N93 then il stick to my ever so lovely W900 and wait for SE to announce the P990 upgrade lol

  • To Tsepz and Radioman...I got my HBH 600 Akono Headset yesterday, still an SE brand. Am very happy about it! :))

  • To Radioman, thank u for the link I will try to experiment this weekend...For ah_wei, it's not me who said about re-released for your info it is Radioforum, who mentioned that here! :) Scroll down, thanks!

  • To Awie: hey dude, u sae tt w900 will b re-released again rite?? dun mind updae mi bout e info wen it release?? thx dude...

  • I have only converted small files, but the best program for converting videos from avi og mpeg to 3gp is found on this site: I can not tell you how to use it, you must simply try and experiment. And read the instructions carefully. There's also a very good program called xilsoft, you have to pay for it, or..... you will also find it on big torrent sites. More easy to use.

  • To Radioman: I wonder if u have downloaded some films in your phone!...hmmmm...Can u share with me your 1st experienced if u have tried one before, thanks!

  • The only disadvantage I know is its very expensive Gracey! :-) But its worth the price of buying W900i indeed. I heard from the people who posted an opinion, its almost 30K from Philippines. Try to ask around could be much cheaper over there! Than here in Europe :)

  • ei guys..can you tell me wat is the advantages and disadvantages of se w900?asap..and do you think how much does it cost in peso??

  • To Bloat: SanDisk Memory Stick Pro Duo would be an alternative according to Tsepz! :))

  • dammit! i scratched the little mirror near the camera part.. is there anyway i can remove the scratch? it was cuz i was trying to chip off this crap in the side with a piece of metal cuz i couldn't find a toothpick.. now i can't sleep cuz i ruined it ugh. anyone help please? ok thanks :)

  • Is there any other brand of memory card that you can use on this phone aside from the MSPD? The ericsson memory cards are a bit pricey.

  • To someone without nickname here! About the MP/FM Button!!!...It's on the main HPM-80 controller...the Orange Button! :)) that is the FM.

  • This is pasted from the esato-forum: Latest Rumour: The W900 to be re-released again. I have heard that the W900 will be released in some kind of special edition. Will try and get more info on that as soon as i can! - forgot to mention that release date will be in Q2. I believe the release will also have something to do with its video capabilities.

  • Yes, it will take a 4GB memory card. This has been confirmed by users of both the esato and mobile-review forums. Users who have the W900i AND a 4GB card.

  • Just a simple question.. any chance w900 will hold 4gb? anyone tried..?

  • The radio is in the earplugs, you must use the button on the remote. It will not appear on your display..

  • please someone tell me that where is the fm radio in the w900i. i just bought the phone and cannot seem to find fm radio! please help! thanks.

  • I will share to u all here about the transferring of MP4 to W900i mobile phone once i got it from a friend of mine! As he will do the conversion also for me...still lucky here!!! (ha-ha-ha);)

  • it has a stereo speaker,its alot louder than W800/W810/K800 and around as loud as a W850

  • I guess I just have to get used to it if ever I do get it. Does the phone have stereo sound or just mono? It says in the description that it has loud speaker. It didn't specify.

  • it all depends on how much it was used @ bloat, coz my W900s buttons are all nw easy to press and their soft since i use my W900 all the time

  • you really put my heart to rest awie! thanks! I really like this phone. I got turned off by the slowness of the flash themes but when I returned it to the default theme, it worked wonderfully. I'm really hoping that the previous owner didn't mishandle the phone. Is it really a bit hard to press the zooming buttons coz of their size?

  • Hi everyone please! Is there anyone tried to download a movie (film) in W900i? Can u please help me how to do that step by step. Thanks again!

  • guy below me: 30Fps at 320*240 pixels saved at 3gp format. having no symbian os is better for this phone.later symbian versions just sucks more battery and brings up the worst disappointment to users apart from being very flexible because of the applications. if ever 9.1 would be the same with the older 7.0 from S60 and UIQ before. then it'll be great.

  • Hello again! Acrually, it's the mps-60 speakers. Does not work on radio even though it has radio antenna. It works perfectly with the k750i. Still, it's no big problem since I have another phone for everyday use. The W900i is more of my mp3-player/camera/video recorder/back-up/nostalgia/facewarper/torch/soli­d build quality/"they don't make'em like that anymore" phone... Hmmm... sounds awfully good, doesen't it? Maybe I'll end up using this as my main phone? Time will show!

  • Congratulations! Radioman! Welcome back to the world of W900i :) Is that the MDS-70 Home Audio System speaker and subwoofer? ;)

  • Nice one @ Radioman, i got my black W900 new on a contract upgrade in 2006 AUGUST, and it stil looks gud even wit da chips and scratches caused by me droping it over the months lol, i have to say this phone is daim strong when u luk at my W900 it looks new but take a look closer and ther are a couple of chipz an scratches on da back at da bottom cornerz lol, my only problem is that the grey part of my navigation keys is wearing away around my down key,so when the phone lights up at nite in da dark the light shines quite abit off da grey u cn c i press da down key alot

  • I have owned a new W900i which I sold cause I wanted the black version. I proceeded to buy a 7 months old black version. The last owner had somewhat blasted the loudspeakers with a huge collection of techno, rap and DJ trash, but otherwise the phone is as good as new! The sound doesen't bother me so much cause I got some wonderfull SE speakers included in the package. Plus a 2GB memory card.

  • Hi Bloat! That depends to the last owner how he/she handled or mishandled the SE W900i! But durability wised, thru my assesment its really very sturdy mobile phone! :)) One of the best in design and style, beside the unbelievable features in it!

  • thanks tsepz! I might take your word for it. I'm really impressed by this phone's features. Can anyone comment on the durability of this phone? Since I'm getting a 2nd hand unit, I'd like to know whether it's going to last me a while. Should I expect any problems?

  • Thank u again Tsepz! For neverending support! :) For the meantime I can only be contented and happy with my SE W900i and all the features all in, except watching movie :(( missing it!!!

  • all of our w900i have default tones, wallpapers, screensavers, themes, etc. right? if you try to delete any, you'll get the "cannot be deleted, protected file" message. is there anyway for us to get rid of these "default" thingies?

  • LOL,thank God i got my W900 new,in August last year

  • You cannot find the phone, you say? Have you looked under the rug? You can usually only buy this phone used, it's not produced anymore. Check your local ebay or something.

  • hey ppl when is 3G coming out in Canada? i need 2 no cuz i am getting this phone in about 5-6 days. please, thx.

  • Synergy, you are correct about the manufactoring date. The hidden menu was a slip, it's for the k750i.
