^^ what about warranty?
+ 2G Internal memory
- Only Eclair, no Gingerbread (at least yet)
actually thats 2Gb is memory card. all Android mobile bundles a 2Gb card nowadays.
Froyo, not Eclair.
You can look at the SE X10 with 4' screen or W8 walkman series phone. However the W8 has a 3' screen and 3.15mp camera. Else i think its a good walkman android phone...Thanks guys!! Is there something with all these features in an SE phone & within 15 k??
The battery backup is worst with the original X10, you will need to carry s charger with you to use this phone. Thats why this phone is selling dirt cheap, if you google more you will get much cheaper rate.
If you want to struggle for bad experience, and keep running for battery/charger go for this phone. Awesome buy.
Else, look for other options period
Pros
1. Comfortable to hold
2. Generally good performance
3. Fantastic inbuilt speaker
4. Good pair of In Ear earphones bundled
Cons
1. Average battery life
2. Android 2.1
3. Lack of equalizers in the OS
4. Poor camera
Conclusion:
To wrap things up, we liked the Sony Ericsson Xperia W8 Walkman for being a simple to use entry-level smartphone and for coming with a pair of nice earphones out of the box. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be much backing up its Walkman brand, let alone bring it back to life. The Xperia W8 is an easy way of joining the Android team, but the aging Android 2.1 Eclair version that it comes with will simply not give you the full potential of the platform. We would only recommend getting one if you are a music lover who needs an affordable smartphone that can double as an audio player. The LG Optimus One, the HTC Wildfire S and the Samsung GALAXY Gio seem like great alternatives to the Xperia W8.
