   I think the W205 phone is very useful and provides all the links you want and more. It is a stylish model and has a good loud volume for walkman music. However it did not come with a memory card, a top up card or a USB cable which we then had to pay extra for the memory card.It is very easy to control and the number pad is easy to use. All in all i’m very pleased with my new phone but it could have provided some more accesories.

   this is a really nice little slide phone, the music player function is great and easy to use, good sound, and has a radio function. the camera is ok, though i find the pics come out a little dark.
   
   its a very simple phone to use, only problem ive found with it is the buttons on the key pad, they are a little on the small side even for a lady with small fingers, i keep accidently hitting the wrong keys which makes messaging tricky.
   
   you will need an m2 memory card ( max 2gb ) as the phone memory is extremely small, you can pick those up very cheap though. i would recommend this phone, especially for those who like to listen to their music on the go, it doubles as a great mp3 player.

   This phone is brilliant!!!!
   
   if like me you’re on a SIM only deal and don’t want to be tie in with a lenghty contract.
   
   The only dowside would be the battery life is shorthan than I would expect for a new phone, especially when I don’t use the music option , every day.
   
   I’ve been faithful to Sony Ericsson phone make , because of the MP3 facility really. The built-in camera is basic , and will do simple picture. This phone menu is quite simple , yet effective.

   I’ve forgotten that the Memory extension would have to a SONY make and bought the wrong M2 SD card. My mistake.
   
   Apart from that , this phone is brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

   This handset is dreadful. I bought it because Sony were innovative a few years ago. Pah!

   It feels cheap and plasticky, response time to any keypress is painfully slow, memory provided is inadequate, downloads are expensive and DO NOT arrive. Editing facility is poor and not user-friendly, camera needs an extremely steady hand or just blurs!

   You get so much better quality for the same price with a Nokia or Samsung. DO NOT buy this, it’s terrible!

   This is a nice looking phone which contains all the basic functions you might need but it is the most difficult to handle phone I have ever used. It is so unbeleivably slow that when writing a message you are invariably way ahead of the text that appears on the screen – welcome back to the 1990’s.

   Prediction text is confusing too – it not only predicts real words but also made up ones, sometimes in place of real ones, and records previous sentences/punctuation, which may sound like a good idea but often results in you writing the wrong thing: you must watch the screen avidly at all times to avoid mistakes, which of course most of us don’t do.

   Finally, the buttons are absolutely tiny – something I negated to check before buying the phone – suitable for no-one over the age of 5; add this to the over-zealous predictive text and the text you planned to send is usually utter rubbish. Sony Ericsson have really let themselves down with this phone and I plan to replace mine as soon as possible.
