Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman Review

Score: 42.2 / 100

Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman is a modest cellphone launched back in 2011, including a small 3-inches screen, a 3.2 MP back side camera and a powerful 600 megahertz processor.

The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman is for sale in three color options, orange, blue and red. This phone is a bit thick compared to nowadays cellphones, with a thickness of 0.59". Sony appears to have forgotten about weight optimization in this 3.67 ounces phone.

Sony designed this cellphone with a interesting 3 inches display, and a resolution of 480 x 320 , which makes all pictures and videos look quite vivid. Its display uses TFT capacitive technology, but it doesn't allow multi-touch gestures.

Sony ships this phone with a quite powerful processing unit clocking at 600 MHz. This phone counts with a 131,07 MB internal storage memory, a poor amount that may be enough for basic users having that this phone also has a slot for external memory cards to store songs, photos and videos and even some applications that allow external memory installation.

The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman is equipped with only a 3.2 megapixels back camera. To complete the camera, it also counts with geo tagging.

This phone counts with wifi connectivity (but it can't share it with other devices as a mobile hotspot) and 3G fast connectivity, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA and UMTS technologies. This phone uses a SIM card for GSM connection.

This phone also comes with some nice characteristics like Bluetooth and GPS Navigation, and Accelerometer.

The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman is very expensive considering it is sold for $ 225, and many similar cellphones are a lot cheaper than that.
