Sony Ericsson W595
Sony Ericsson bring out yet another “Walkman” series phone in an attractive slide form factor, the W595. The phone resembles the W910i which was released a year ago. It looks the same on the outside and inside with identical list of features, except, with an upgraded camera and the wrinkles which made the W910i unstable ironed out. The firmware has been extensively upgraded to make the phone very reliable and a joy to use which is why we now have it in our Telecom 3 product catalogue.
The W595 has the “Shake Control” that lets you change to a new track just by shaking the handset slightly. The motion sensor also auto-rotates between portrait and landscape.
The walkman player has received plenty of praise in the past, and this is the latest version 3.0. You can create and update your playlists, shuffle songs, randomised, equalise, etc. and album art can be displayed when music is playing. Supplied software along with connectivity, allows your music to be transferred or ripped from music and can be transferred between phone to PC or vice versa easily. The music audio quality is excellent, whether it’s being played through the loud speaker, a conventional stereo headset or a Bluetooth stereo headset. The Mega Bass feature helps enhance the bass frequencies to give the user a stronger bass sound for a fuller music experience. In addition, the phone also comes with a FM radio with RDS.
The W595 is a great music phone, as you’d expect. The Walkman player has received plenty of praise before, and this is the latest version 3.0. You can create and manage playlists, shuffle songs, equalise, etc, and album art can be displayed when music is playing. The supplied software lets you transfer music from PC to phone, and rip music from CD’s. The W595 has excellent audio quality, either through the loud stereo speakers, or via a conventional stereo headset or a Bluetooth stereo headset. The Mega Bass feature helps to enhance bass frequencies for a fuller sound. In addition to the music player, there’s an FM radio with RDS.
With all these music features, you’ll want the space to store all your files. The built-in memory is only 4 mega-bytes but it comes with a 2 giga-bytes memory card which is enough for about roughly 500 MP3 tracks. If this however, is not enough, then the phone supports memory cards of up to 8 giga-bytes.
The camera has been upgraded to 3.2 and can also record video, and video calling is possible on a 3G network with the front mounted video camera.
The W595 is a brilliant phone. It’s what the W910i should have been and everyone that has picked up the phone hasn’t managed to put it down.
