Sony Ericsson G900 Review
G900 is the flagship model of the new line and it’s positioned in the high-class. The phone is based on Symbian UIQ without making it hard to use. Its main purpose is to offer intuitive work, and the OS will simply widen the organizing options. Like its smaller brother G700, the flagship model is equipped wit a touchscreen, on which you can write or draw notes. In contrast to it though, it has a 5-megapixel camera and Wi-Fi support, respectively for quality photographs and Internet access.

1. my pro and cons of this phone

The phone looks good, feels good and simply is good...
I believe that sony has achieved exactly what they wanted.
A phone that is full of multimedia pleasure, but offers some extras.
- Speedy navigation
- Fast camera, the autofocus is really fast and good
- good image quality
- good video quality
- good web browser speed (for a mobile device)
- good battery life, in despite what some say or perhaps i'm just lucky xD
- touchscreen !!! and it does an excellent job- it takes 2 sec to load a new message, even after it is the ram memory. If not it takes even longer.
- the default theme is verry laggy (but the other ones are OK ^^)
- quite laggy when opening apps for the first time, but once in the ram memory they work jsut fine :)

2. Poor Battery Life

ive been using this phone for a month now, works perfectly!
but the only problem im facing is the battery life.
my phone doesnt last a day.
i had a nokia n73 before and surprizingly that phone lasted 1.5 days as compared to g900's 1 day max.
if i talk via the bluetooth handsfree, talktime is reduced to 3 hrs
even if i dont use wifi, bluetooth, etc and perform basic phone functions like sms and calling, it doesnt last a day.
I would not recommend this phone to someone who has a talktime of 4-5 hrs in a day.
other that the battery life, g900 rocks!
Good built
both Touch and keypad functions
decent camera
no compatibility problems with pc suite
poor battery life
a little difficulty in accessing functions
interface could have been made more user friendly

3. Not as easy to use as it could have been.

Recently purchased the phone because I was attracted by it's compact size and feature list but found that many of the features are difficult to access compared with earlier models by Sony Ericsson. The menu system is not as easy to use as the old P910i and P990i models and the smaller screen makes the onscreen keyboard (my favorite input method) is trickier with the smaller letters.
The physical size makes it impossible to include a stylus as long as the older models had, unless you want a fiddly telescoping type, so my big hands don't fit it very well. The combination of short stylus and smaller screen emphasizes the problem. That is a trade off that you need to weigh up for yourselves, I had the chance to try a demo model and I thought that I will probably get used to it.
If only I could find the profiles menu.
Small physical size and weight
Great battery life
Touch screen
Clear calls
Wi Fi
Loud ring tones (useful as an alarm for heavy sleepers like me)No profiles menu
Screen washes out in sunlight
Poorly arranged menus for some functions
Small screen size makes a lot of things hard to see
Fiddly battery cover and SIM card holder

G900 has a greet look, feel and design when I bought it I favorite it over iPhone since I am not used to touch screen and G900 have both features together which played for me as a mean to get used to the touch screen. But I think SE has not consider some features which if it has include it in G900 this phone could be the King of all phones. Features such as GPS became essential in today's high end mobiles and HSDPA is a requirement for fast internet access.

Seems like an absolute value for money - if of course the estimated release price is right. We don't know yet if it becomes a GPS device with the use of GPS Enabler HGE-100. Are we sure on the 8gb memory expansion capabality?

this phone is nice. got everything. a VERY GOOD camera a nice look and wifi and all the rest. it is simular to the w960i but this camera is better. but the w960i has 8gb. so its a hard choice. but its also like the p1. the g900 is the camera phone the w960i is the music phone and the p1 is the the buisness phone. the p1 is quite ugly though. over all i would get the g900 but i realy realy like the w960i. so its very close but the g900 might hav won by a little bit. ive not seent he g900 but ive seen the w960i and it is very nice. realy like the way it has a keyboard as well as touch screen because it is more conveinient for texting and things like that..
