Sony Ericsson W810i

[oddcrap]

Since you are downloading Java .exe files, place them into the "other" folder, then browse there on your phone and install them.

Awesome, thanks.

great phone? It certainly looked cheap when i first held it on my hand. I am getting this phone in couple of days. Does it have any new firmware out??

[Guol]

Great review. Thanks alot!

Anyway, I'm holidaying in Dubai and this phone is cheap in comparison to what it is in Australia.

Should I get it in black or white?

I prefer black, but fewer people have it in white, so if you want to be "unique," go for white.

W00t. Got black!

When I get back to Aus in a couple of days I'll get a new sim-card and then I'll add my opinion to this review

Those words that appear on the screen on some of the pictures what language is that? Polish?

I was looking at the W810i but then decided to switch my attention to the W850i. Nice review though ;) .

Nice review man, got this phone in November and I can't complain but I hate myself for not doing enough research and finding out that Rogers was getting the K790a a couple days after I got this phone. Also they also started including a 4GB MS aside from the initial 1GB that was with the phone, then again I took a 2 year contract so it is all good :p.

BTW, if you're on a branded phone flash it, its well worth it although I flashed mine to the wrong version (Middle East..).

I spent a little extra and bought the phone unlocked.

have this phone through rogers wireless and love it, much better than my last phone (motorola rokr). i think i'll stick with sony phones from now on.

Looks like everyone is enjoying this phone, I also wish I took the white version instead, it looks rather unique than the usual dark colors for cell phones.

I'd like to see the W850a, although I believe the next major phone to be release this side of the Atlantic is the W880a.

The W880 is said to be the thinnest Walkman phone yet but from what I have seen of the images circulating over the internet, the keypad is really ugly. From what I've seen, it looks really hard for people with big fingers to press on the keypad. Then again, these images were never confirm to be true by Sony so that is a moot point.

You are referring to these pics, yes?

Just got my W810 from Rogers and im liking it so far. One thing I dont like is that I cant use MP3s as my ringtone, but i found a workaround.

[iownyou14]

Few pics of my new phones. The D807 is my dads and the W810 is mine.

Now just waiting for my 4gb MS Pro Duo and 1GB transflash FREE from Rogers.

[Jordan Green]

well i have to say this is a brilliant phone especially when you debrand it so it has all the cool features like changed icons and vibrating menu all those things make it a brill phone which i will be keeping for a long time!

I suggest you Debrand your phone with Phone XS. Go to HowardForums for more info regarding how to and such.

The Sony Ericsson W810i doesn't need a workaround to be able to use MP3s as ringtones :|

If purchased directly from Sony or another store (without a contract) it will be able to, but in this case he got the phone through a the wireless provider on a contract so the phone is branded and modified according to the providers liking (Remove ability to mute shutter sound, Flash themes, mp3 ringtones and update through SEUS.)

[iownyou14]

Yep your right TheGriffin. I am now really hating not being able to remove the shutter sound. Can't take any spy shots without being noticed :whistle:

Can you make a recording of 'silence' and change the tone to that? Suppose mine doesnt have thoes features disabled. Its a great phone, and I have owned many, this is by far my faverite, and its soo damn sexy :p

You can use the Sound Recorder function of the phone to record near silence, and use it as a ringtone, assuming this is what you meant.
