Sony Ericsson W715 and C510 preview: First look
Gsmarena posted a preview of the Sony Ericsson W715 and C510. Here is their final impression.
We enjoyed having the Sony Ericsson W715 and C510 with us. They may not be ground-breaking devices, but they are solid-built, no-non-sense handsets that use one of the best feature phone interfaces available on the market and that has now gotten even more rich in functionality.
The Sony Ericsson W715 Walkman is so much close to being the G705 twin, that at first we hardly imagined a place for it under the sun. But, as it seems being a Vodafone-exclusive device is a good reason for any mobile phone to come into being and we like that operators are offering more and more advanced cell phones at subsidized prices. So in the end, the W715 Walkman might not be an effort in vain.
The Sony Ericsson C510 on the other hand comes with the latest interface revision (think YouTube and threaded SMS/MMS) and has borrowed features from the top Cyber-shot dogs (face detection and smile shutter). The svelte camera lens cover and the promise of being one of the most affordable Cyber-shots, would surely assure it a nice market position even though it lacks a xenon flash and is just a notch behind in image quality than the now elderly Sony Ericsson K810.
Overall, we had a nice experience with both mobiles, and we are looking forward to seeing how they will perform in real life once they go retail as finished products.
