  • is this phone as loud as the w580 and the w760?

  • one day i gonna buy it

  • The Only Problem....

    Hi. I bought this phone one year ago and it was perfect till today. Suddenly the phone turned off and when i try to power-on , the buttons are lightened but the screen is black. The buttons stay turned on for 3 minutes and after that they are turned off.

    Does anyone had this problem before?, or know the solution.

    Thank you

  • @wizzard2oo7 that happend to me so you have to go onto the sony erricson website select troubleshooting then it will ask to select a phone select your and then you have to go to "my phone wont turn on or charge" then go to the bottem and clikc uptade and that will fix it

  • can anyone tell me if you can attatch phone charms to this model? Thanks

  • Y IT HAS NO FLASH..!!!!!! YYYYYYYYYYYYY.!!!!! T_T

    i think it would be the coolest phone in my opinion if there was flash in it.!!! But i think it still is.!

  • dont buy its crap on my third one from vodaphone! keeps turning itself off and freezing , had same problem with 3 of them i refused another one from vodaphone and the reluctantly said they would change it am now getting the nokia 5800 as a swap.

  • cool

  • mañana me lo compro...;P

  • Omistan kyseisen puhelimen ja puolen vuoden sisään on puhelin päättänyt jumiutua jo kolmesti... Ensimmäisellä kerralla vaihdoin sim-kortin ja vaihdon jälkeen puhelin tyhjensi kaikki musiikki,- valokuva- ja videotiedostot. Sen jälkeen puhelin on kahdesti koneeseen liittämisen jälkeen ollut käynnistymättä uudelleen ilman ohjelmiston uudelleen asennusta mikä tarkoittaa kaikkien tietojen menettämistä!

    EN SUOSITTELE TÄTÄ PUHELINTA KENELLEKKÄÄN!!!!!

  • Thanks Joensnaama, löysin hyvän tilaisuuden eBay, mutta jos niin sanot, unohda se.

    Kiitämme teitä, hello Dav!

    PS: Sorry for käännöstä, mutta olen käyttänyt Google Translate. ;)

  • the phone is very good and the camera is good and the music...i broke up this phone and is still playnig music

  • How do you turn off the walkman, lol. My friend says the stupid thing always starts playing music for no reason in his pocket. Can it be turned off?

  • I bought this phone and it it very nice I compared the picture taken from the w980 to the c905 and the difference was little the phone touch is very good but the let down is no wifi

  • phone looks AWESOME!

  • My friends, family, etc. They tell me that the touch sense buttons get broken real easy, but i dont know ive seen alot of video reviews of this phone and no one seems to have a complaint about the buttons. Im confused

  • I personally never found anything on the internet saying the Touch Screen buttons break or don't work well. Being very vast and full of opinions, i imagine if there was a common issue then it would of been shown; apparently not.

    I am looking to purchase this phone so have been researching it a little myself. ^_^;;

  • dnt worry bout dat

    they r just jealous

    haha

  • Well, the time in which the phone is exposed to water doesn't really matter, if the water does saturate the phone exterior.

  • Hardly stupid if the phone was submerged in water for 5 minutes... It is the users fault, not the phone.

  • the red light is ok,but the screen no open

  • u r the one who is stupid dude

    =.='

  • haha

  • When I bought W980 I switched off that flashing bar on the upside... and now I feel bad about it and I wanna give it back but I don't know how :(( Please, help me!

  • i have this phone best phone ive ever had

  • i so happen to have this w980

    the problem is i dont know how to activate the bluetooth headset i have the a2dp

    will somebody help me here?

  • why do they have to make the radio always dependant on the headphones dammit! when the damn headphones brake u cant use the radio!

  • which one is better w760 or w980?

  • Better is W980i

  • easy,.. w980 is better :D

  • but 760 has gps antenna built in!

  • who has this phone?IS IT REALLY TRUE U DONT NEED HEADPHONES TO USE THE RADIO?IS THAT TRUE? PLEASE ANSWER WILL BE APPRECIATED.

  • no u do need the headphones the fone on the vid was a prototype and they decided to change it in the end so u need the headphones

  • wow thanks for the answer man!ive been waiting to lnow for sure that thing.i dont know why they have to keep making it that way when ur headphones brake then u cant use radio it sucks.but i guess they make it that way so u keep buying their headphones damn makrting crap. well which one is better w760 or w980? 760 has gps but this 980 has 8gb memory.

  • well i own the w980 currently and my mom owns the w760 and well they arent that much different except for the form factor and well the memory i choose the w980 over it cause its got more features and better built and they are fairly about the same price but the w760 is still an awesome fone but it the speaker is rely not that good compared to the w980 but it all depends on ur stlye but the w90 in my opinion is the way to go no regrets and i had it about 3 months now

  • hi man, i have a question for you this time, if i used the bluetooth headset do u think i could listen to the radio?? or do i need the headphones? would the bluetooh headphones work also for the radio???

  • it depends on wat bluetooth headset uahhve tell me which one u want to buy an i will tell u oh and do u own this fone

  • hehe, i dont own it yet.....but im going to buy in a month or so. oh and the bluetooth headset i wanna buy is HBH-DS220 its the one u have the 2 earplugs not the one u only hang one thing at one ear(its not that one).....will that HBH_DS220 work to listen to the radio?

  • noi dont think it will work because the phone itslef needs to be pluged into for the radio to work and since its wireless it wont work , oh and have u checked out the w705 good fone too

  • oh really??damn it, well, but i think this bluetooth headset will work at least with the mp3 and taking phonecalls right?, ill check right now the w705 to see how is it and ill tell my opinion.

  • hey man! i just checked the w705 and also the G705....and ive come to realise this: the only major difference between these 2 is that the G705 has a GPS built in which is awesome, and well the W705 has the walkman player, thats it, coz in other things they are the same even they both have WIFI (cool) but the G705 is cheaper so i would go for the G705,check it out. thanks for your suggestion man i would have never seen it if u didnt tell me. thanks!

  • dont get the g705 thers so many probs wit it the w705 is soo much better

  • problems with the g705???well i dont know, i just looked it i didnt know there was that model until u told me, i havent checked on forums , what kind of problems?

  • plus the w705 has some better feauters trust pik the w705 i have it its great ibut the w980 is still awesome

  • wowow , u have also the w705!??wowow, the thing i like about that one is that it has flash for the camera and w980 doesnt, but the bad thing is that the w705 doesnt have as much memory as the w980 lol,the thing is that i think i want a flip phone not a slide but if i wanted a slide that one would be soooo nice. have u ever had problems with ericssons headphones?do they brake easy?coz motorolas mini usb sucks the mini usb fails after some time.

  • well umm i own the w705 and my bro owns the w980 but honestly they are bought pretty damn kool the w705 has bigger screen though but the w980 has a fm transmitter but i would say is up 2 ur own taste , se fones are good but lately some give probs hard ware and software like g705 , w580 , w910 like those but still good have u cheked out the nokia 5800 awesome fone oh yea the w705 has wifi i suggest u go on gsmarena

  • huh? radio no nid headset cable ???

  • i got this phone , donno how mutch it costs tho , got it outta nowhere . anyone could tlel me its price ? -. but anyway , its a great phone , why ugly ? its looking AWSOME ! it has 3 usable menues , what can be wrong.

  • how come ur clear thing lights up heaps mine berly does ...?

  • Does the lap on this phone becames weaker after sometime?

  • This is mobile is GREAT ''KEL NEKEM EZ A TELÓ :D''

  • why ugly??? I think its a pretty phone, i almost buy this phone but i choose w595 coz this phone is too expensive T-T

  • UGLY PHONE!

    re poso kanei afto t kinito???

    skeftomai n t agorasw...

  • fuck u

  • tanto el w910 w950 w960 w980 son casi la misma huevada yo prefiero el w910 o el w950 esteticamente es mas chevere el w980 que esta feo carajo por esos botones redondos que le da un aspecto tosco y que me chupen la trula los de sony ericsson

  • no es asi, el W980 tiene el premio al mejor Audio y fidelidad 2008, el W910 es un buen equipo pero... en sonido el W980 es mejor, lo escuche y la verdad es lo mejor que e oido, incluso mejor que mi N95 8gb, saludos

  • in my country the prize is 9 milion 669 thousand (may be 650 US $ )

  • gonna buy one after christmas

  • me too

  • I m gonna buy 1! I m gonna buy 1! I m gonna buy 1!

    oops sorry! get to excited!

    Laugh out loud!

  • if it bas wireless will be amazing

  • no WLAN ? r u sure ?

  • exactly! antenna built-in removed and keyboard colour has also been changed from blue to bright white. it's nice phone but really easy to get scratches.

  • wiii!!!!

  • is this handy for girls???

    because i wanna buy it but some girls sayed it's for girls but maybe they mean another handy

  • ich find das is auch für kerle, ich werd mir auch eins zulegen und es sieht voll nicht weiblich aus

  • iv had dis fone 4 2 weeks now nd i luv it, it rocks, music quality is wikid, only bad thing i can say is dat it takes a while 2 start up every time u turn the fone on

  • SNAP! why i like sony phones

  • it sez this fone has a built in antena, so u can use the radio with out headphones, but my w980 sez u need the headphones and wont work with out it!! plz help

  • the built-in radio antenna was a feature sony-ericsson decided to take out of this phone. I guess this video was made with an earlier version of the w980. Sadly, you have to connect your headphones for radio. But this phone still rocks!

  • That feature has been removed since the retail version. This video is made 6 months before the actual release.

    So to answer your question, you need to have headphones attached to use the radio. Built-in antenna has been removed to keep prices low.

  • Which phone is better? W910 or W980???

  • w980 because the w910's backboard waggling and that isn't so good I think

  • im also having trouble choosing among those two

  • obviously w980! w910 does not have clear bass, and has lesser memory plus w910 lags.

  • w980i ofcourse...i have w910i and i dont like the sound of music....it dont have bass....i dont like it....w980i better...

  • yes this phone will have finger prints allover it, inside and out haha! i always cleaning it after use.. ^^ there are some crystal case for this phone, but if u use it, the phone's beatuty will now be shown. so i just removed mine lol

  • I own a k850i too and it also has tempered glass as its surface so there are fingerprints all over but I guess i just fell in love with this phone! I thought of buying this one ;)

    hehe, since you're using it, I guess you could answer my ques. When the phone rings, will the lights turn on?

  • I have this mobile phone,and is great.

  • do u recomand it?

  • No,I just tell the truth.

  • u miss understand me mate...i´m asking if u raccomand this phone!!i´m sure u said the thrut!! ;-)

  • Yes,I recommend it.

  • does it have many fingerprints all over the phone? is there a cover for the phone?

  • i agree on SammiTee.. this phone is kinda slow compared to other mobile of sony ericson.. i bought one i think last week ago, and as Vacsecure said, i hope the light on the keypad turn blue or purple so it will rock ahaha! the camera is good, the location of that camera is bad but ul get used to it.. ^^ and when taking pix, its kinda slow also.. but im not disapointed in buying this bec i love my phone and its beautiful! ^^

  • how do u get the keypad to turn purple? or any other colour for that matter. i just got boring white

  • sod this, get the blackberry bold 9000 ! wit-woo!

  • This phone looks good but not great, having 2 display screens on a phone front and flip side dosen't serve any purpose just makes it more heavier tht's just my view. and this phone as a 3.2Mpixel camera but wthout flash tht's bad. One major problem what i face with all sonyericsson phones are whn used on speaker mode thy are not loud thy have a good clarity but to feel them we need to hear.

  • Yeah so I got this phone through the post today, and it is amazing!

    BUT one thing they mention in this video which my phone doesn't seem to do it play the raido without the headset plugged in. It says that it needs to be plugged in as the antenna is in the wire....

    And I agree it does run slower than the pervious Ericsson I had, but after using it for a while I don't really notice it anymore.

  • B-E-A utiful :D

    I´ll seriously order 1 tomorrow ;)

  • All i can say is WOW, this phone is incredible! I wish I never got my LG secret now, guess i'll have to wait until next year, then I'll be able to get this one lol.

    Only complaint about this is; Do you think its a lil boyish??? Can girls rock this? Will they come out with a pink or purple light? That way it would appeal more to the gyalies ;) The orange light is sweet too tho. Dont get me wrong!

    P.s. Could you show other functions to the phone?

  • 4300 swedish crowns 650$. Will buy it tomorrow :)

  • don't talk about function.my lovest mobile still P1i.i like its sound.i make compare P1i sound with W980.p1i speaker very loud and clear but w980 not so.currently P1i is no1 for me.i buy w980 bcoz the outlook n transparent bliking light hehe..some more keypad also nice n the music sensor in front the flip.the design n outlook took my heart thats y i buy it.

  • i bought it at 4th of Aug so any1 can giv me some comment about tis matter.by the way i'm having P1i,W810 and nokia 7610,8250.currently i having 4 mobiles. i nvr had a mobile run slow like W980.

  • i bought it when it launch at singapore singtel 1st day. so far till now i only found one problem. this mobile function slow than other model of sony ericsson. huh especially when i want to key chinese word. wow...its really slow. now my memory left 4333mb. isi too much memory i used then make the mobile run slow? haih...

  • this mobilephone is Sweet ! i need one for my birthday ! :D

  • 4000 SEK to get it right, that is about 400Dollars - 500 Dollars but its a pretty fucking nice phone

  • it costs around 4000 swedish crowns and i guess thats like 500 - 600 dollars

  • Could somebody tell me how much this phone cost. Thanks

  • Questions people!

    Are the WAP functions pretty advanced on the erricson? Able to boomark pages, good quick connectivity, able to load up 'non mobile enabled' site. Ive got an N76 at the mo, need it to be as good or better.

    In the headphone socket on the phone, is it adabtable to any headphones or shaped for an Erricson specific one?

    Ive never had a phone with touch sensitive buttons on the outside, is there a phone lock to stop these from kicking of when in your pocket etc?

    Ta

  • there is a lock button dumb

  • Yeah.. and..

    Answers to any of the other questions knob jockey?!!! No? Shut the fuck up then

  • If nokia can have music phones with decent cameras so can Sony ericcsson. .....oh right sorry I forgot they already did! the w810i which is the best phone ever made when technology was where it was in 2006. I wont be upgrading until SE release a walkman phone with a camera with a flash!

  • there is one the W550i, i used to have it have the w980i now, but the w550i only has 1.3 megapixels but has a flash and a decent walkman and a really cool form factor (swivel) but only has 256 mb internal memory with no space for extensions to the memory i.e sd cards. i think this phone is discountinued

  • this phone may have 3mp camera, but i was told it takes bad pictures. unlike the w880i which has 2mp camera and is better coz it has settings for better pics.

  • i just upgraded from the w880i to this phone its camera is better.

  • im diggin this ! its pretty hype looking

  • Does anyone know if at&t will have this phone and if so when. Thanks.

  • When does this release in India?

    and is it better than moto razr 2?

  • wow it has great bass and sounds...it attracted me

  • I'm getting it!! I just can't wait for it to ship.

  • да...))

  • This is a walkman phone also not a cybershot phone so stop complaining about the phone w/o flash. Want flash go buy cybershot phone or wait for C905 to launch.

  • WOW W980I, BLACK DIAMOND

  • Yeah, as if your iPhone and NOOO!kia are better.

  • 0_O

  • This wasn't available when I was looking for a phone but now when I'm broke, it comes out. eBay can be addictive. Flash or not, if I wanted to take a good picture, I'd bring my cybershot. Anyways, my SE phone is old now and I WANT THIS PHONE! I will beg for this phone for B-Day if I have to.

  • hey that guy stole my phone :p

  • I love it!! Such a beautyfull phone!!!

  • Anyone knows when it will be released and how much does it cost? ANYONE??

  • esta bueno el celu

  • So sexyyy

  • nokia n96 all the way.

  • I agree......the Nokia N96 is better(my opinion aswell). The W980 is cool, but might be too flashy(with the light) for some people.

  • however, you can disable the light...

  • i wanna know how much will it cost....?

  • if only this phone offers flash for low light condition.. then i'll buy it..

  • Can someone tell me the price?

    In dollars and pesos?

  • okay..every good phone has flaws why? cos people don't want to pay so much money for the phone. However, when you buy your phone you don't just focus on its flaw but at the main feature you want your phone to have. Slim? check kool? check? walkman phone? check 3.2mp ? check,long talk time, internal 8G memo. Hello? who cares if it doesn't have a flash unless you people are willing to pay 1k+

    for a phone then probably Sony will release one next time

  • your poor
