Heres the new W series walkman phone from Sony Ericsson.

Its a cross between the W800i and the K750i. wit a few upgrades like no joystick

. Quadband and Edge.
Its due out around March/April and i think it will come in Black and White.
No price yet im gonna get it cause it will be an improvement on my W550i

I was looking at that myself on gsmarena... then couldn't see anywhere to buy it until someone pointed out it wasn't for sale yet.

A definite possible replacement to my k750i....

Nice but not enough of a reason for me to upgrade my W800i.

liamskater · 09-01-2006 11:55PM

Yeah id love to see the look on the faces of people who think this is soo cool and bought a w800i today.Be soo frikin hilarious *points and laughs*

I'd only upgrade from my K750i if it had better video and for the USB 2.0 (don't think I'd ever use EDGE...)

But I just got the HPM-70 earphones today, have yet to try them out for longer than a minute or two, but they sound great, really block everything else out.

Tried them with my PC speakers too = awesome.

gearbox · 10-01-2006 03:51PM

Looks pretty nifty. It looks like its based on the K750 / W800 "chasis", so I'll bet it'll be possible to do a case swap (as its also possible to change the joystick on the K750 / W800)

Still, quite happy with my K750. Orange and Black don't really seem to go together imo.

The only things that look off to me are the lesser memory compared to the K750i or the W800i. Also the orange button on the left looks a bit "off" but not enough reason not to buy it

This has USB 2.0. Minor change, but important.

chrislad · 12-01-2006 10:06PM

The W800i doesn't have USB 2.0? Mine transfers across pretty fast. Definitely not USB 1.1 speeds.

BopNiblets · 12-01-2006 11:12PM

Oh, I just read it from GSMArenas W800 page.

Guess the K750 people get the slowness.

Meh!
