The Powerful Swiveling Phone
spacer
Sony Ericsson W900i

John Allyza Marie

Sony Ericsson's W900i makes an impact in the phone industry. With its 3G video and 2.0 Mega pixel camera, it's certainly an ideal phone for everyone. This product comes in only two colors: a very cool and mysterious-looking black, or a fashionable and clean-looking white. I have received the black model and I found it very attractive. The packaging itself was already very artistic.

Generally, I enjoy using swivel-type phones, but in this phone, I was naturally shocked (and pleased) to hear sound effects upon sliding it open. The power button is located on the keypad on the bottom right corner. Users will have a choice whether to start the phone or music only (Although choosing either one allows you to listen to your music files). The phone lives up to its name as a Walkman. You can now listen to your music files and browse into them as if you're using an iPod. It has features like a walkman, even a radio and video features to match it.

One of the most interesting features of the phone is the 3G video call. With this technology, you can actually see the person you're talking to. It makes phone calls more exciting and more worthwhile since you can have a glimpse of your loved one. The Entertainment option gives users a new way of combining photos, and creating your very own music and video by using the Photo DJ, Music DJ, and the Video DJ. Games are also available for the young people and for those who are young at heart. The phone includes a racing game, Asphalt 3D, a smashing game, Powerball Arcade, and a tetris game, Quadrapop.

Taking pictures using cell phones can never get any better. With my experience using Ericsson phones, I'm sure pictures come out clearly even after being developed. Zooming in using this phone can be very helpful. The zoom feature exceeds other models and can therefore be very useful when an object is far away. 

Themes also come in different varieties to suit the user's mood. There will be four themes by default and more by downloading. When darkness and the color black dominate your mood, then Backstreet is the theme for you. The Avenue theme on your phone gives it a fashionable and cool look. The Lounge is also a light, sunshine-like theme to suit your happy mood.

Cell phones with cool features, hi-tech cameras, and intensive graphics have dominated the cell phone industry. Nowadays, people tend to use cell phones not only for calling and sending messages, but also for playing games, listening to music, taking pictures and videos, email, organizing schedules and more. Looking for a phone that suits your high technology expectations? Then I can say that this is the phone for you.
