Sony Ericsson W900i has user-friendly interface
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
The W900i's numerical keypad, five-way navigation and action buttons are easily accessed on both the upper and lower halves of the handset. It has a bright 262K color screen, a 2-megapixel camera and more.
If being seen is your thing, the Sony Ericsson W900i would certainly satisfy your needs due to its considerable physical measurements of 148 g and 109 x 24 x 49 mm - not exactly a RAZR V3x, in other words.
Still, excellent ergonomics go a long way towards mitigating this as the handset feels neither especially thick nor heavy when held.
Furthermore, the handset's numerical keypad, 5-way navigation and action buttons are also of outstanding quality, and we particularly favour the ease with which users can comfortably access both the upper and lower halves of the handset without having to change ones grip to interact with the slick and user-friendly interface of the W900i.
Said interface is presented on the crisp and bright 262K colour screen of the W900i at a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, which also doubles as a viewfinder for the 2 Megapixel camera snapping stills with good white balance and a well-working Auto Focus.
When powering on the handset - as is the case with its sibling, the magnificent W800i - users must choose whether to use the W900i as a combination of mobile phone and music player, or as a stand-alone music player.
Dedicated hardware buttons for play/pause and volume control are of course available, and the Walkman application relies on tag data to let users browse music by Artist and Tracks, as well as the ability to create playlists.
A graphic equalizer with several presets proved excellent for optimizing sound, but it's a bit of a shame that the W900i doesn't provide an integrated 3.5 mm jack, instead relying on a bundled dongle.
When it comes to mobile phone related features, the W900i supports GSM 900/1800/1900 MHz and WCDMA 2100 (UMTS/3G) networks, as well as HSCSD and GPRS.
