This is a classic example of compromising function for design and has been reported, by most mobile phone reviews, as the worst Walkman phone ever or at least the worst Sony Ericsson phone.
The Sony Ericsson W910i was only good when you opened the box, but when it came time to turn on the phone, it was like opening Pandora’s Box, for bugs, glitches, short battery life and more came leaping out.
Yes, it has some of the best features in town; a media player; ample amount of music space, up to 10GB; stylish slide design that is also slim, 12.5mm thick; 3G with HSDPA & video calling and all the standard goodies, like TrackID™, PlayNow™ downloader and more. However, the thing is, you can never say it is the best or even bearable, if it simply does not work.
After buying the device, exasperated users flooded the online forums, because of the many problems they experienced with the phone. Some said they were only able to use it once and never again. Others experienced problems of drop calling, while the remainder said that their units automatically turned off without key command.
The one thing you can advise fellow SE enthusiasts is, “Buy at your own risk.”
The solution, go out and purchase a Sony Ericsson W595.
The Sony Ericsson W595 looks exactly the same as the W910i, only a little heavier, but hey, it’s a great deal, since all the bugs and glitches have been fixed.
