A Walkman® phone for everyone
Bring your music. With the W200i Walkman® phone, you always have one-press instant access to your favourite tracks.
Everything you need for a full Walkman® experience: included in the phone box you’ll find software for copying music from CD to phone, a 128MB memory card and a stereo handsfree.Write emails, browse the Web - and do it to the sound of your music. Just keep your Walkman® player or FM Radio tuned in and turned on.
As a music phone, we can see why Sony’s so keen to pitch the W200i as a compliment to an existing MP3 player, rather than a replacement. It’s a capable enough unit, but the interface is relatively basic, and the single speaker is tinny and entirely uninspiring. Switching to the supplied headphones did improve audio quality markedly. You’re rather stuck with the cabled headphone model, however, as the W200i lacks Bluetooth compatibility, and thus support for A2DP stereo headphones, and the proprietary port means you’re stuck only with audio accessories supplied or sold by Sony Ericsson.
The W200i includes a digital VGA camera with 4x digital zoom, but naturally, the quality of VGA cameras means it’s barely good enough for a few happy snaps. A more notable feature is push email, which is a welcome surprise on a handset with such a low RRP. In addition to push email, the W200i supports standard SMS and MMS messaging with T9 predictive text input. Other features include a loud and clear hands-free speakerphone, sound recorder and a host of personal information manager (PIM) features including an alarm clock, calculator, calendar, notes, stopwatch and a timer.
