I own 2 of these phones in red, 1 for me and my girlfriendi have owned Sony-Ericsson for years and no problems, this has to be the worst phone Sony-Ericsson have ever made. First of all it keeps sayin inactive sim, freezin and turnin off, the sim works fines in other phones. It then locks me out of my messages saying operation failed so i have to master reset. I have the same problems on both of the ones my girlfriend and I own. It also can be really slow to respond. Overall i am really dissapointed with what could have been a promising phone.

Just returned the third W910 in one month to the dealer. The first one continuously restarted from the beginning. The restarting also appeared while charging and sometimes aborting the charging and locking the phone completely such that only a battery removal/reinsertion would make the phone work again. The second one started to have this problem after two weeks. A complete reset and software re-installation (via the computer as the update service via the phone indicated that the latest software was installed) seemed to fix the problem. However one week later two keys stopped working. The third phone had the restart problem from the beginning. Have now replaced the phone by a Nokia 6500, no problems this far.

Anyway, I’m really enjoying my W910; and the more I use it, the more I like it. There are a couple things that Sony-Ericsson can improve on the W910, namely louder earpiece volume, a little bighter keypad backlighting & louder plus clearer handsfree speaker phone. Another techonology I wish SE have with their phones is the “Crystal Talk” which Motorola is pioneering in their hand phones. SE phones are not good at all at cutting background noise as people at the other end of the call were complaining of noisy background which I have never encounter complain when i was using my Moto V8!

I just returned my phone to get fixed or I might get a new one if it is faulty. I had it for since end of Nov. But since last week, it started to stuffed up in making and receiving call. There’s no dial tone, I can’t hear anything, and the other party can’t hear anything either. But call going through. SMS is fine. I like the phone though, I love red, and I’m a girl The sliding is smooth not like a cheap phone like Nokia 6000 series. Although sometimes, the software a bit slow, I’m not sure is it because of a little bit memory left on the phone after filled up with music and pictures. Overall, it depends what you want, colours, whether you need walkman phone, if you want camera phone, the Sony-Ericsson K850i is suitable since it has 5 MP.
