We like:
Walkman software, infrared and Bluetooth connectivity; good audio quality on calls; orange monochrome external screen, 256MB bundled memory card, 3.5mm headphone adaptor

0.3-megapixel (VGA) camera; fish-scale keypad; small OK button
CNET UK judgement:
Sony Ericsson's W300i is a compact, cute Walkman phone that has a variety of communication options and comes with good music software. It's great value for money and gives you most of the features you would find with higher end models, but it's a shame the camera only has a 0.3-megapixel (VGA) sensor that takes blurry photos
Full review:
The Sony Ericsson W300i Walkman phone is based on the Sony Ericsson Z530i and has a similar design. It's a petite clamshell phone with an orange monochrome screen on the front and a fish-scale-style keypad inside. This is the sixth phone in the Walkman phone range, and the cheapest so far. It's available for around £130 on pay as you go and free on a monthly contract. Continue Reading...
