Sony Ericsson W900i announced

Oct 17 2005 - 03:55 AM ET | Sony Ericsson

Sony Ericsson today announced the W900i, a 3G Walkman branded phone. With built-in UMTS, the W900i is the first Walkman branded phone to include 3G data and as such is also the first to support over-the-air music downloads. This handset had been shown in several leaked product shots and was said to be a possible successor of the S700.

Features of the W900i include:

  • GSM 900/1800/1900 plus UMTS 2100
  • QVGA 262K color screen
  • 2 megapixel camera with autofocus and 30fps video capture
  • 470MB of built-in storage plus a Memory Stick Duo card slot
  • Music player can handle MP3, AAC or AAC+
  • Stereo Portable Handsfree with remote control (3.5mm jack)
  • Bluetooth

The W900i should begin shipping later in the fourth quarter. Several more photos of the phone are available below.

MobileTracker recently reviewed the Sony Ericsson W800i.

This is the phone i've been waiting for. I would have loved to purchase it but i dont think i can wait. I'll probably buy the w800 instead. The w900 is a very good phone. Thumbs up to SE.

Sony Ericsson I believe produce "quality" phones.
I have had two, and lately a LG - no comarison.
This W900i looks the ideal product. Especially the video funtionality & memory size. I will get this and I will use it in conjuntion with my PSP. Cos u can download the videos onto the PSP..
Can't wait & I assume it will be around the £100-150 mark..


leonie Oct 30 2005

sarah Dec 06 2005

is this phone surround sound like the w550i?


w800i rules Dec 07 2005

get w800i instead of w900i, w900i is way too big; i do like the remote control that w900i comes with though.


ALT/genetics Dec 08 2005

May be an ignorent question but....

I am currently studying in japan at the moment. I know I can find an Unlocked Ver. (thankyou sony) In the features its listed as working with UMTS 2100, is that the same as W-CDMA 2100, the japanese standard of choice? In other words, can I use an unlocked Ver. on a Japanese network? What interests me on this phone is that its a VERRY good phone and it has GSM, so I can use it stateside.


Colin Dec 08 2005

this phone is the one im waiting for cant wait to have it..:D


SofaKingCool Dec 08 2005

Sahid Dec 09 2005

I work for vodafone and I have got this fone! Guess what, its nice! Im so glad that i have got it, sorry guys - u will get it soon! Sony Ericsson produce top fones but this fone, cant find the words to describe it!


Original Dec 19 2005

This post was made for me to say...I want this tite phone so I can pimp my game on the next level. Still, sorry-ass punk bitch niggaz @ sony need to develop phones that will play movies/music using a stick or card that companies will start developing for the mobile market. Phone need to be all screen in front with touchscreen functions found on the IPOD, open the phone up like the V from LG and reveal, keyboard and video game controls like that found on the GB mini, Sirius satellite, GPS navigation, Microsoft Windows and the whole Phukin 9. The phone needs stereo speakers, center and rear located on back of phone for surround. The games need to be 128 bit full graphics with a built in graphic accelerator card. Phone should open up like a laptop and use a mini bluetooth laser mouse. Built in 3GB memory should be suffice with optional memory card/stick for more storage. The phone should support satellite TV which should be dedicated only for mobile technology. Phone should have Voice recognition for emails, IM's and text messaging.
