    The busy lifestyle of the contemporary individual justifies the need for an assistant, which to help him plan his schedule. A mobile device with a convenient personal organizer and easy Internet access is what Sony Ericsson’s G-series offers them. However, the company’s solution doesn’t come with the complications brought by all smartphones. G900 is the flagship model of the new line and it’s positioned in the high-class. Read more

    The Sony Ericsson G900 doesn't score as high as the G700 on ergonomics - the memory card slot location and the absence of the two context keys tip the scales in favor of the G700. Yet, it still allows one-handed operation with almost no need for stylus. The Sony Ericsson G900 has borrowed the best of the Walkman and the Cyber-shot worlds (excluding the xenon flash and the accelerometer) and put Wi-Fi support and touchscreen display on top.

    I was excited when i first got this phone because of the functions touted in this very slim device. First day that I used, i noticed that the phone was very clear and very loud and clarity seemed pretty decent. Read more

    I t's traditionally believed that smartphones can't be good-looking, or have any appreciable multimedia features. The SE G900 attempts to demolish that myth. Let’s see what this 'hybrid smartphone' can do! Design and Build I like the form factor of the G900. It’s not funky, but it's sleek in a functional sense. To elaborate, it measures 106 x 49 x 13 mm, and weighs 99g. I won’t call it light, but it certainly isn’t a bother to carry around. Read more

    Despite having only one loudspeaker onboard, the G900’s ring tones are pretty loud, actually above the market’s average volume level, being in line with the Sony Ericsson P1i, so it is very hard to miss a call with this phone in your pocket. The G900 is living proof that even a sole speaker can sound very well. The vibro alert isn’t strong enough though, and you might not feel it on certain occasions. Read more

  1. Decent phone

    I have had this phone for exactly one year from today- give or take a few weeks. Unfortunately, the phone died on me today. (I'm disappointed from the substantially low damage threshold. I have seen it take many strong hits before, but as I was taking it out of my pocket, a mere 2ft drop, was enough to destroy something inside the phone even though nothing physically broke) So far, I have been moderately satisfied with it. It is a decent phone, it gets the job done.. Read more
