Sony Ericsson W995a Review

Score: 39.6 / 100

Sony Ericsson W995a is a low-end phone launched many years ago, provisioned with an 8.1 megapixels back-facing camera and a little 2.6-inches screen. Great! That's it? No, it's just the starting point of a detailed review.

The Sony Ericsson W995a counts with a 120,83 MB internal memory, a mediocre quantity that may be enough for basic users having that this phone also has an SD card slot to store songs, photos and videos.

Apparently Sony decided not to care about this cellphone weight at all, leaving it live with a weight of 3.99 oz. Even though this cellphone is as big as 3.82" long and 1.93 inches wide, it only holds a way smaller 2.6" screen. The Sony Ericsson W995a is a little thick for nowadays standards, with its 0.59" thickness.

The Sony Ericsson W995a is only equipped with an 8.1 megapixels back-facing camera. It is also able to capture videos in 320x240 (QVGA). In addition, the camera includes digital image stabilization and flash.

This cellphone is equipped with a good 2.6" display with a 320 x 240 (QVGA) resolution, making everything look nice.

This phone provides wifi connection (although it can't be provided to other devices acting as a modem) and fast 3G data connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone uses a SIM card to use GSM services.

This cellphone packs a 930 mAh poor capacity Li-Polymer battery, which is quite low for a thirsty cellphone like this. Sony informs a talk time of 9 hours and a stand by time of 370 hours for this cellphone.

This cellphone also features a handful of interesting features as Bluetooth (enables communication with other bluetooth phones, computers and accessories) and GPS Localization, and a few sensors likeLight Sensor and Accelerometer.

Sony is offering this phone for 199 dollars, which is expensive for this kind of cellphone.
