The W950i is Sony Ericsson's flagship Walkman™ phone, and is one of the most unusual phones to be released in 2006. This phone has been designed as a music player & business phone - an interesting concept - and the W950i meets the needs of its target market well. What the designers at Sony Ericsson have realised is that even the best camera phone on the market today (the Sony Ericsson K800i or Nokia N93) is still not a patch on a dedicated digital camera, so why include one? By scrapping the camera they have produced a feature-packed phone that doubles as a full-spec music player and really can replace your i Pod, without compromise. Apart from having no camera, the W950i is unusual in other respects. It's also the slimmest smartphone on the market, at just 15mm thick, and is also a 3 G phone.

Nevertheless you should still expect to have to spend some time learning to use all of the features on this device, simply because it has so many of them! This is the flagship Walkman™ phone, and it's music player doesn't disappoint. The player supports a wide range of formats, and delivers top audio quality. There's also a built-in FM radio. All of the features that you'd expect are here - a graphic equaliser, Mega Bass™, user-friendly playlist management, and.
