The Sony Ericsson W595 is a slider handset phone with 3.2 megapixel camera. However, despite moving a few things around, it is almost identical to the previous model, the W580i. The only major upgrade of the mobile phone was the camera which went from 2 megapixels to 3.2 megapixels. However, there is still no flash so photos may not be of the best quality.
The audio player can only support four formats which is also disappointing since some mobile phones can support a lot more. Video wise, the phone isn’t much better as it takes low-resolution MPEG-4 videos. To make matters worse, Sony Ericsson doesn’t include converter software with the phone.
On the bright side, the Sony Ericsson W595 is a quad-band device, which means that it will function wherever you travel. Other features of the phone include the high-speed downloads, A2DP Bluetooth, and FM stereo. The phone’s speaker also produces a high quality sound and good volume.
The call quality is good and there is a minimum of disruptions in service. The phone retails for around £120 or is free with most contract deals. Overall, the phone is durable and decent, but I would of liked to of seen a 5 megapixel camera and flash, plus support for more multimedia formats.
