Cell phones definitely have difficult names to remember, and each company uses a specific denomination for its products. Sony Ericsson makes no difference from other major producers as most of the formats used for naming mobile items rely on five or six characters with both letters and figures. There is a specific meaning attached to every character in the title of Sony phones: the initial stands for the phone series, and this feature is general. Then, the next figure represents the subcategory, the third defines progression from the last released item while the final character is either an 8 or a 0. The closing specifications also tell something about Sony phones.

Whether an 8 or a 0, such characters in the names of Sony phones refer to the product peculiarity when produced for a foreign market. Or, a Sony phones that have identical technical features but different designs. The lowercase letter designates the market for which the Sony phones models are produced: thus, there will be ‘a’ for the America, ‘c’ for China and ‘i’ for the international market. The i-mode branding is designated by the ‘im’ particle present in the title of the phone.

There are other ways of naming Sony phones, since more recent formats or design follow a pattern made of three characters such as the P1i for instance. The series of the phone is represented by the initial, the number tells the development from previous models while the lowercase letter indicates the market. Code names are also attributed to Sony phones particularly to those that are in the process of development or improvement. Most such names are taken from the female tennis player for which Sony Ericsson is a sponsor. You can find lists with such code names on all sorts of web pages if you are interested in the topic.

Although lots of people would find it a lot easier to understand the differences between various Sony phones just by looking at their names, many buyers don’t know how to interpret such information. Retailers will always have a large gallery of products including older models as well as the latest, and people keep guiding their choices after design and price tag. In fact, these are also the elements that producers work on when releasing a new model, even if technical superiority is also touched upon.

Belonging to the sliders’ category, Sony Ericsson W850i, brought a major innovation of design as compared to former models. A large screen and an included Walkman, with these two features, Sony Ericsson W850i made good sales. While buyers who have an idea of what a phone should be from the technical point of view, make a more serious selection, less informed users are most often influenced by the look of the phone. Available either black or white, this phone reflects elegance in its look; the main merit here comes from the 24 carat gold Walkman logo that catches the eye and makes an impression.

We could say that the beauty of Sony Ericsson W850i is not superficial, as it is an overall well built phone. The keypad is modern, featuring a light effect in the form of pulses that follow the music beat. On the inside, the music player is high class, you’ll enjoy a crystal clear sound both for the Walkman and the radio. The promotional package includes a stereo headset that amplifies the bass frequencies thanks to the incorporated Mega Bass feature. The 1GB memory stick Pro Duo and the possibility to store 250 tracks justifies many buyers’ preference for Sony Ericsson W850i.

The software incorporated in Sony Ericsson W850i makes the management of the device more than user friendly. The drag and drop operation allows an easy and quick file transfer through an USB cable. The Walkman software also enables the music download directly to the phone at a very high speed. A very smart feature has been introduced in the design: the so-called TrackID. If you listen to a song on the radio but do not know who plays it, this piece of software helps you track the album and the artist. What an incredible feature!

Sony Ericsson W850i comes with a built in camera that renders very good quality pictures, with the possibility to use the digital flash and zoom. Then, you can also record all sorts of things as well as make 3G video calls. What this media device lacks is the autofocus, which makes the K800i model superior to Sony Ericsson W850i. Despite this minor flaw, reviews claim that Sony Ericsson W850i makes one of the best Walkman phones ever released. A cheaper non-3G version of Sony Ericsson W850i is also available for anyone interested in getting a bargain. Consider both variants carefully and see which suits your needs best!

Sony Ericsson W800i was the first mobile in the Sony series to incorporate Walkman capabilities. The new innovative design brought Bluetooth features, the Infrared and USB connectivity, all part of a very trendy look. After its release in 2005, Sony Ericsson W800i became a starting point or platform for further development in this field of electronics. The external memory has only 2 gigabytes of storage, but in the context when it was produced, the outcome was a success. For the release moment, such memory size is considerable.

The phone camera has autofocus, a flash and video recording features. Moreover, the life extent of the battery for the playback music mode is of thirty hours, which is pretty much enough for any average needs. In fact, if the phone is on standby for a longer period of time, then, recharging will only be necessary now and then. According to the specifications, the battery has a 400-hour operational period and a talk time of nine hours. Sony Ericsson W800i can be still purchased from many retailers, and at more accessible prices than a year or two ago.

A minor disadvantage of this phone is the fact that it relies on a joystick for memory navigation. Lots of users say that the joystick can easily get damaged or lose its functionality in time. Sony Ericsson W800i is also very prone to wearing, scratching and minor breaks in time particularly if its treatment is not adequate. Complaints have been made about the fact that very often dust gets inside the display and blurs visibility. Yet, such inconveniences have not stopped Sony Erricsson W800i from making great sales.

A very unfair competition for Sony Ericsson W800i is the Music Mobile W800c, produced in China. There is a striking similarity between the two models, and it is beyond any doubt that the producers took more than simple inspiration from the W800i series. The quality of this fake model is doubtful and Sony Ericsson W800i in its original variant is definitely superior. Should you see this item while searching for a good mobile, it is advisable to consider more than just the price tag before getting it. Otherwise, you risk wasting money on a poor mobile device that will not last you long enough!
