| ReviewsDisplay Verdicts | 85 out of 100 Good Gear Guide The W890i is Sony Ericssons most stylish clamshell yet. A great combination of style and features, 8GB of memory and excellent headphones make this one of the best music handsets currently on the market. read more 75 out of 100 The Register A high-quality Walkman phone with 8GB of storage and a fine musical performance but it's a touch light on other features. read more 73 out of 100 CNET The Sony Ericsson W980 isn't our top choice for a music phone, but it's an attractive and reliable model just the same. read more 70 out of 100 CNET Asia It may not outperform a dedicated music player, but the W980 is a Walkman that's great as a secondary (and fashionable) music device when carrying two players is just not possible. read more 60 out of 100 Phone Arena 'I want a phone which I can listen to music by without compromise!' - if this thought keeps running in your head, then look here before you go shopping for a new gain.

Carrying it with you might attract some looks, but no more than those of fashionistas. You can choose look over functionality, but in this case neither is that good. Overall, the slider didn't impress me much, and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't buy one after Ive discovered so many of its bugs. read more N/A out of 100 GSMArena Nokia 6500 slide was announced together with its slim sibling Nokia 6500 classic, but is far more than just an attempt to diversify the supply beyond the traditional bar form factor.
