The Cool Factor
Sony Ericsson has paid great attention in making the music-listening experience a complete delight. The Sony W595 Sakura has a circular navigational key, just like your regular iPod. The software is easy-to-use and let you manage playlist, shuffle, etc. The phone has an interesting feature called “Shake Control”. It automatically changes track with the flick of the hand. When the phone is shaken, the software randomly chooses a song from the current playlist and vibrates once to let you know that the track has been changed.
The camera is also quite efficient; however, at times you may wonder why they missed out on incorporating a flash. The Sony W595 is available in an array of colours to choose from and is quite high on style quotient. To keep with the spirit of the device the colors have been appropriately named as Sony Ericsson W595 Cosmopolitan White, Jungle Grey, Active Blue and Lava Black aswell as the new T-Mobile exclusive Pink edition. The phone also sports a secondary camera for your video calls. What more can you expect in your handset?
