Pros: It is durable, easy to use, functional, and great for listening to music.
Cons: ??? See my review...
The Bottom Line: Recommended for music lovers, good sound quality and have a lot of storage. For camera phone lovers, I don't think this is the right one for you.

| bebekoh's Full Review: Sony Ericsson W800i Cell Phone |
I have had this phone for the past 2 years. I would say this is extremely durable. I can’t say it is obsolete although I do not see it in stores anymore. I bought this because my mom would not let me borrow the Digicam.
The Good
The good thing about it is that it’s Sony Ericsson. Sony Ericsson has been known to have really good and durable phones. This phone has 2 megapixel-camera with 4x zoom. Package includes memory stick pro duo (512 MB), cord connection for computer, CD, manual, charger and headset with a really great packaging.
Features: it can be a radio, a camera, a recorder (voice), WAP, alarms, notes, calculator, calendar etc. The works! The sound is clear. I stored so many mp3s in this phone with its 512 MB memory stick which you can also use for Sony Cybershot Digital Cameras. I dropped this phone several times and it still works. It is easy to use. It’s cute and functional. I
The Bad
I can not really think of anything bad. I liked it so much that I never saw its flaw. Almost! You see sometimes it hangs, especially if you’ve stored a record more than the range of 5 minutes. I use it often to record minutes of the meeting. Video quality is poor. I never liked taking videos anyway, but when I do, I don’t like the outcome. If you have unsteady hands, I would not recommend this for you. The picture gets blurry when you zoomed in. What do you expect? It is only 4x zoom. You still need to go closer when you take a picture. I would not advise you taking pictures in the dark. Color is fine although I don’t like orange.
In the end:
Obviously, 2 years ago, this phone is really expensive. Now, with its price range, I would say this is reasonable. I most certainly like its function. I would say that at the price I paid for, it was worth buying.
