Had this phone for just over two months...I love it. A hundred times better than the w580, it has 3.2 Megapixel camera, and dozens of apps. A little slow on the picture and sound messaging, but it will eventually send. It has a video recorder, and several DJs. Video DJ-make sort of an iMovie, or a movie out of your clips...Photo DJ is your basic photo edit, and you can create your own tunes with Music DJ. Along with a few other great features, this is a great phone for all people of AT&T.

Great phone, better debranded

29 May 2009 Ryan2015230

8 out of 10

I've owned and loved the W760 for two weeks after trying and hating the LG Vu.  The flash-based menus are intuitive and good looking, the interface runs smoothly and quickly, and the phone has a solid build quality for the most part.  In addition, the media/walkman feature is easily acsessible, unlike the LG Vu.  Furthermore, the debranded W760 inclued a FREE GPS system, in addition to many useful applications, such as a fitness tracker.


But what I love most are the little details.  The shake control.  The acceleromater.  The light effects.  The ability to recieve live podcasts and RSS feeds.  The EASE in which you can pick up and learn the device.


Note: my phone is debranded, meaning that all the useless ATNT features are gone, and the original Sony Ericsson features are restored





Fast interface when debranded
Beautiful screen
Beautiful flash-based themes
Intuitive menus
Easily synced with PC
Good call quality
Great Walkman sound quality
Lags slightly with AT&T branding
Not the most beautiful looking phone (better in person than on screen though)
Accelerometer is slightly slow when compared to iphone

Sony cuts corners by using cheap components

I'm on my 4th (new) of these in 6 weeks.  Each one started out great and within 2 to 8 days blew its speaker, even at moderate volumes.  Otherwise, I love the phone.  The display is stellar, the camera works well, even without a flash.  The slider is solid and texing has never been a problem.


Sony has a "cheap" problem though.  The predecessor to this phone had problems with all of the keys breaking.  Yes, I'm sure some engineer made a trade and came up with a cost-to-benefit and said, "If we make each key 0.040" thinner, then we will save $0.01 on each phone we sell."  In this phone's case, they fixed the keys and chose a cheap speaker.


I'd much rather have a phone that works well as a phone first and foremost.  It's got to be able to dial, transmit, receive, and transduce radio waves into acoustic waves so that your ear can hear it.  Period.  Beyond that, everything else is bells & whistles.  Those amenities are great, however without a proper loudspeaker, this phone is USELESS.





Brilliant display
Solid chassis
Cheap components
Multiple blown speakers
