testosterone_blue Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 latest addition to the sony ericsson's digital doohickey is this musical marvel by the name Sony Ericsson W800. packed in an unorthodox orange color, this phone rocks your boat while being the first kind of its class to have sported such an avante garde color preferences. decent camera is a breeze, and can snap at a 2 megapixel auto-focus camera. the big downside was that the W800 actually won’t work with Sony’s Connect online music store, at least not when it’s launched later this year. nah, instead it’ll have support for both MP3 and AAC, with the idea is that you’ll load it up with music from your own collection (it’ll ship with a 512MB Memory Stick Duo card). eventually they might add support for Connect (which would require a firmware upgrade, since the W800 doesn’t currently support ATRAC3—a total shocker for a Sony device), as well as whatever wireless music download services the carriers might be cooking up; in the meantime they just want to make it easy for people to get music on to their phones, and over-the-air ain’t it. another stumbling block for its upmanship is that even if it is coined as SE's music phone, it's built-in speaker is not stereo, only its headset port.

testosterone_blue Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 what really catches my attention is its packaging. you'd throw away your cylindrical pack of Pringles for this. Quote Link to comment
butirog Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Guys Thanks for the info...I am Planning to buy this gadyet. I currently have a N7610.When It was new of course it was great but then eventually there are new things now in the market. what catches my attention is the 512mb memory. But i think i can have it with a k750. if ever there is a flash program for w800. what do you think? I was told no it costs 26700 bucks. I bought my current fone for cash but now i think i'll go for a plan. anyone here sells this for a cheaper price like 2nd hand? for a w800 that is...? Quote Link to comment

butirog Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 :cool: Like what i said of its bundled 512mb it will sound cheaper since if I decided to buy k750 it has a 64mb memory stick right now in the market k750 costs 23500, so basically if you would just get this w800 thing its like buying a branded memory stick for sony plus the walkman features that SONY ERICSON is boasting about this gadyet. Ideally its better. (and in the real world its somehow practical) and also if you decided to flash the k750 into a w800 once a flash update is available you will still need somehow a higher memory than a 64mb. so what say you?agree or disagree. :mtc: Quote Link to comment
LonelyGuy Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 saw taht w800i also kanina sa sony center .. ok sya talaga, to think sa price nya with a 512mb mem stick copared to k750i .. kaya lang kulay orange, maliit yung joystick nya, maiksi pala i mean and meas dikit ang keypad ata .. so parang pang babae talaga ... tingin nyo ?? compared it with other nokia phone, mas ok sana, pero ganda resolution nito Quote Link to comment
testosterone_blue Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 just when you had your honeymoon with W800, here comes the successor in the name Sony Ericsson W850. Quote Link to comment
testosterone_blue Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 just when W800 and W850(as posted above) hadnt had a full take off in the market, another of the Sony Ericcson kind is already heading a glimpse. this Sony Ericsson W900 is expected to be at full throttle in the coming months. it's a new device that looks to be the first Walkman clamshell phone. it will supposedly have 300MB of internal flash memory, a MemoryStick Duo Pro port, Bluetooth, A2DP support (aka Bluetooth stereo headphone support), external speakers, a 2 megapixel camera, and EDGE. so basically it’d be the Walkman phone that has pretty much everything hardware-wise that people have been asking for—hard drive and 3G excepted. wow!!! am rippling with undulation for this.
