Lightning Review: Sony Ericsson W890i Walkman Phone (Great, No Nonsense, Candybar Phone)

By Adrian Covert on May 21, 2008 at 8:10 AM

The Gadget: The Sony Ericsson W890i is a slim, Walkman-branded follow-up to the W880i. It offers up Walkman Player 3.0, a 3.2 megapixel camera and Sony’s great UI, all in a candybar form factor that doesn’t dominate the pocket. While this is currently a Europe-only product, Sony Ericsson phones tend to wash up in the US eventually.

    “$899 in Oz” is a bit of an exaggeration. Shopbot lists an au shop that’ll sell you one for AU$389.

    And Three will sell you one on a $29 cap plan for an additional $14 a month ($336 over a 24 month contract).

    $899 is the RRP. Of course you can get it cheaper if you shop around…
