W580i Accessories

The Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey mobile is available in two styles dull gray or orange and white. Personally, I like the vibrant orange and white version better. Like most Sony Ericsson phones, this handset is light, but solidly built. The Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey movable blade is easy to work with one hand still does not open accidentally. At 3.9 by 0.9 by 0.5 inches (HWD) and weighing 3.3 ounces light, it fits easily into pockets. The keys are small but slightly domed, so they are easy to press. Also nice is the main screen, high resolution 320 x 240 pixels, and the cursor pad, which doubles as a set of buttons to control music when you're in the integrated music player.

The Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey relatively good mobile camera flash for less than 2 megapixels offers vivid, if slightly bluish, maintaining sharpness even in low light. Our low-light shots were a bit overexposed, but there was no shutter speed blur, which is much more important. The quad-band Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey mobile becomes a good reception and, in a low signal area, it calls connected without problem. voice quality, however, might be a little better. To some extent, I'm spoiled by the use of 3G phones, which are generally clearer calls than EDGE models. The Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey mobile headset is loud enough for outdoor use, but not too strong. The speaker is fine outside, but I heard volume fluctuations, and transmissions sounded quiet on the other end. The phone comes with an adapter to use 3.5mm headphones as music player headphones, and it also worked well with Bluetooth headsets if there is no voice dialing. Talk time was about 10 hours, which is fine for an EDGE phone.

The Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey is not just any mobile slider phone, though. It has a bunch of whimsical features that are relatively rare on U.S. models. Take the pedometer, for example. Same as the Sony Ericsson W710i, it counts the steps you take and gauges your running speed. Like the W710i Pedometer, it is not absolutely accurate, but this is enough for casual use. An application integrated into fitness shows your progress on a graph, gives you "medals" to clarify and even threw in a sports game-info. As with most Sony Ericsson phones, the Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey Mobile has excellent Bluetooth support, with a wide range of profiles including file transfer, stereo audio, DUN, and the PC capacity funny strange remote control. For EDGE phone, do not expect too much from it as a PC modem.

To calm or make you shudder during training, the W580i is based on the Sony Ericsson Walkman music. music quality, as with all Walkman phones, is good. You can use your regular music player headphones, the included earphones, or a Bluetooth stereo headset. The Sony Ericsson W580i Urban Grey mobile phone is capable of playing MP3, AAC, and WMA files in any case little, but it still does not sync with Windows Media Player or iTunes. You must drag and drop your songs onto a Memory Stick M2 (256MB card is included) or by connecting the phone to your PC or using a card reader. If it seems too difficult, there is an FM radio here too. A tight control completely useless but cool "you can shake the phone to shuffle your songs. For more details, visit www.phoneandbeyond.com
