W600/W550
Photos of the S600 and its new clone, the W600Posted by Luis Camino on Jun 13, 2005 in Photos| Press releases| W600/W550 Sony Ericsson has announced a Walkman branded version of the S600i with the same design and a becoming new color. As the specs we published yesterday showed off, this two phones have two integrated MegaBass speakers, but perhaps it wasn’t a strong enough reason to make the S600 a Walkman phone. [ UPDATE: The W600i has 256mb internal memory, which makes it more logical as a MP3 player. Also, the stereo headset has a 3.5mm connector for using your preferred headphones UPDATE: Link to the S600i Official Page fixed. Added link to the W600i Official Page Just after my preview, Mobile-review publishes their S600 review.

Let’s keep adding stuff to the Software section, do not hesitate to send in any cool program you know for use with Sony Ericssons, PC, Mac or Linux. This homemade W600/W550 iSync plug-in by Macncell.com will synchronize the phonebook and calendar (maybe more things, I can’t test it, I’m PC) of your W600 and W550 on any Mac, but I don’t see the reason why it wouldn’t work with any other Fast Port enabled SE (again, can’t test it myself, and don’t really know how iSync works). It was created following this tutorial for making iSync plugins for any unsupported phone.

Two W900 reviews and four W600 reviewsPosted by Luis Camino on Nov 23, 2005 in Photos| Reviews| W600/W550| W900
Threegmobile’s W900 review is more of a preview after just a couple of hours of testing, but there is a video of the automatic opening mechanism and two sample photos featuring the girl on the right. They also have a W600 p/review. Mobile-review’s W900 review, besides the usual funny translation bits, is the first one to include comprehensive comparison with the S700, especially of the screen, which is indeed a bit smaller (just by a milimeter or two) but a lot brighter; actually too much according to their opinion. Sample photos of the W900 and K750 show that they may be using the same hardware, but the firmware differences don’t make the photos turn out exactly the same. An good benchmark comparing these two phones shows the W900 (enabled with an nVidia GoForce 4800 chip) being a lot faster in 3D operations but slower in everything else. The speed of the menus is extremely slow, probably (and hopefuly) due to the unit being an unfinished-firmware prototype. Lots of videos at the end. NOTE: Both W900 reviews mention something about the absence of RDS in the Radio FM, but it’s not clear if they’re referring to the phone or just the handsfree’s remote screen. Mobiledia’s W600 “review”, not even having live photos or impressions at first-hand, is not really a review but an extended explanation of all the features and uses. Typical perfect read for anyone impatiently waiting to buy one/have it shipped. Sefanatics’ W600 vs S700 review is a very recommended read, just what a good review should be: brief and straight to the point. Infosyncworld’s W600 review is also short but has a couple of interesting facts like the battery life being great even playing MP3’s: 15 hours they say, but was it with the phone off or on?
