User Reviews
LT - Wigan-24/07/2008 The new phone not only looks great but is easy to set up get started and use. I love the music player as I can listen whilst im ironing, working and making the tea. The sim's game has had me totally addicted and i'm not generally a gamer. I would recommend this phone.
SB - Leicestershire-23/07/2008 The Sony Ericsson W580 is a great phone it has all what i need it to do and is so easy to use. The only bad thing is it doesn't stay as charged as long as my old phone but apart from that it is brill.
RC - Surrey-15/07/2008 As a previous owner of the K800i, which I loved, I wanted something a little slimmer in the pocket. The W580i has the same screen size as the K800i but is much slimmer. The interface works well and the walkman buttons work really well if you want to use this as an MP3 player. I was particularly impressed with the headphones that came with the phone, they are isolating types with good sound quality. Also the connector accepts a normal headphone jack so you can connect a different pair if you desire. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the W580i.
SG - Midlothian-15/07/2008 My new phone is really brilliant. So far I have not had any problems with it. It's easy to hold and the slide action is really smooth. The radio is very clear.
