Sony Ericsson Walkman W580 |
Sony Ericsson continues to expand their Walkman mobile phone lineup and feature list by now adding the Walkman W580. The W580i sports the Quad Band EDGE (850/900/1800/1900) connectivity along with music playback, and this time Sony Ericsson has added some additional new features to help with your outdoor exercise routine.
The new mobile phone supports Disc2Phone software to transfer music to an internal 12MB of storage which can be expanded with a Memory Stick card, and TrackID will identify unknown songs whether they are downloaded or even recorded off of the built in FM tuner. Some other highlights are a 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth connectivity and a “slider” style frame.
These are all nice features but the real unique item for the Walkman W580 is its concern for fitness by providing a pedometer built into the phone. By counting steps the mobile media device is able to measure distance, speed, exercise time and calculate your calories burned all while providing music and keeping you connected.
This new offering from Sony Ericsson comes in colors of Style White or Urban Grey, is only 14mm thick and will be available for purchase in the 3rd quarter of 2007.

I have the black one, I love it. The camera is only decent in good light though, but that’s not a big deal for me. A tiny phone that looks cool and has a good music player is all I wanted. The phone comes with a one year warranty, so don’t worry too much about the key pad, SE has supposedly improved the design
lush phone!
i just got this phone today the buttons did’t crack and the guy at AT&T said its a newer model so buttons wont crack also this girl in my school got it last week and guess what……………………………………………………………………………………………….

I own this Phone. And it is a wonderful phone! It is very durable, and I have had mine for six months now with only 1 problem. The 2,3,4, and 6 keys are cracked on mine. They even broke in that order. Other than that, it is very reliable if you don’t get a lemon. It has lasted the longest out of any of my other phones! And my phones have a fairly rough life!
Omgg Yhoo People Are Soooo Wronng Mehh && Loadss Of Mehh Mates Have Got Diis Fone Nd It Aiint A Ripe Off Its Amaziin!! The Butoons Havent Cracked On Miine But I WOuld Of Fought Dey Whd Crack Iff You Put 2 Muchh Preasure Onn It !! Diis Fone Is Amaziin !!!
I suggest to not buy this phone. The battery cover is almost impossible to get off. You probably end up scratching the battery cover trying to pry it off. Also, it is hard to insert the SIM card. You need something small to push the SIM card up in the phone and make sure that it clicks.
Also, I couldn’t turn the phone on. You hit the power button, and the phone vibrates and sometimes the AT&T screen comes on, but then the phones goes out. I thought it was a problem with the battery, but to find out it was a problem with the phone. I took it to a AT&T store and they confirmed that it wasn’t the battery. Luckily, the phone was under warranty. I took it to the Device Support Center (DSC) and they replaced the phone. Needless to say I have only had the phone for less than a year and this crap happens. I bought this phone because I couldn’t get a replacement battery for an older LG phone.
Yeah I’ve had the phone for a few weeks and the buttons cracked but other than that the phone isn’t too bad itself.
the phone is kewl i just cant find the fricken SIM card

Hey yeahh this fone is nice, but so fragile.. ive broken one the inside screen jus because i knee’ed it.. but yeah overall its nice…. i wish it was a lil more.. heavy and strong.
Yep, the buttons are a problem.. My number 8 cracked.. but whyyyyyyyyyyy?
Am i was thinkn of buyn dis fone my sister has it nd notn has happend but from wat some of these people say im not to sure!!!
Don’t get it, itwill break on you in less than a month. My keys haven’t cracked, but the phone won’t even turn on anymore, or charge.
if ur like me, ur wondering if all thatc button cracking is true. well my friend had it.. and it cracked… i laughed at her. bought it.. and it cracked.. now.. the #pound dont work. the RIGHT menu button dont work, and wen i close it, the middle pad keeps glowing, and wen i put my camera on it flashes in like a strobe like manner…. and the battery is super weak.
i still love it……….kinda.
Sik foneeee
i honestly love this fone, appearance wise..series of problem though..the bloody buttons keep cracking. Within 2 weeks the # 2 3 4 6 7 9 & # keys cracked. Also, within 3 months the button you hold to shake & change songs while playing, has stopped working.
My phone went psycho on me today…for 2 hours the 8 button would not stop pressing by itself..i figured it was jammed or something. Now its stopped working completely WTFFF AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW???
The phone goes all weird on me sometimes..it just shuts on and off..doesnt even charge!!. When i turn it off, for some reason the lights that usually flash whne someone is callin still stays on. *sigh looks like im taking a trip to the rogers store tomorrow…
what b.s …f*ckn fone if it doesnt get fixed imma give that rogers guy a good cussing…
is it really true that the fking buttons will crack?I was thinking of buying this phone?can some1 tell me whether i should buy this or SE W850?
this phone is soo dam annoying! everyone who said this phone was delicate is RIGHT! god dam phone i can’t even the back of it..!!!
the buttons keep cracking me and my husband both own one they replaced is but it does no good but other than tat they are good phones
this phone looks amazing and the lights are awsome! buuutttttttt after about a week the buttons will crack then about 2 weeks later some of the buttons wont work and then about 2 weeks later it will probably stop working altogether lol so yh my keys have cracked and my top left back button and select button have stopped working so i have to use the shortcut buttons all the time also my shake has stopped working i wouldnt reccommend spending a lot of money on it and if you do get it: BE CAREFUL WITH IT! DONT DROP IT EVER!!!!
this phone is good but it keeps saying that it as no memory stick inserted, when it does?! how do you sort this out?!
My Walkman button, the # button and my right arrow button just stop workin all of a sudden after it fell today.
the handys are very good !!
does it change music when u shake it
ITS A PEICE OF REAL CRAP BELIEVE ME THE # BUTTON FELL OFF AND NOW THE 2 3 8 and 9 DONT WORK neither does the down button on the d-pad also the charger is a bitch to get in rightDONT GET THIS PHONE DAMNIT
DONT BUY THIS PHONE. My 18 month contract has literally just finished. When I got the phone the sim wouldnt connect properly and had to be wedged in with a small piece of cardboard. Within a year the keys cracked. I got some replacements from ebay and although they were pretty simple to replace, it shouldnt have happened. Yesterday the phone stopped working all together. It wont charge and wont turn on. Ive visited loads of forums but cant get it to work. All that happens is the light behind the ‘c’ button momentarily flashes. Very disappointed in the phone and waiting for my new Samsung Jet to arrive. I should never have changed from Samsung to Sony Ericsson in the first place. I hope the postman is early!!! RIP W580i, I wont remember you with fondness!
this is a bad phone
i have this fone and one of the side buttons pops off and one tiny screw fell out on the inside and now when i slide it, it gets stuck and wont open or close. also wat really sucks is that there is no warrenty for not being able to open ur fone so i am stuck with it for another year.
Hello Ian,
You said: “2 3 8 and 9 DONT WORK neither does the down button”.
I have teh same problem. Did you find a solution?
not a good phone. i go to the technician, twice in two weeks, coz every week the phone is damaged, like cracking of keys, the red light, and now it won’t open and charge again. gaaad. i already invested a lot of money for this to work again but it just keep on not functioning well.
cost of phone is?
