W610i is an excellent mobile phone with an excellent design, thin metal keys and a slim box. The main trump of this phone is its music side, it has an excellent music player.

OUTSIDE

The device is extremly thin and elegant, and the colors of the box are also excellent, it comes in black and orange.

The sides are orange, the back of the phone, the middle navigation key and the background lighting of the keys also. The box is 14mm thick, and it has silver borders of the keys.

The device lays excellently in hand so that it is easy to use with only one hand. The keys on the keyboard are silver and thin, and although they seem hard to use, they are actually very easy to get used to and very precise.

They are well deployed and accessable. On the sides, it has a key for MP3 player on the left, and volume and camera activation keys on the right.

On the left side it also has a slot for Memory Stick Micro M2 memory card, and battery and earphones slots.

INSIDE

It has a classic Sony Ericsson software and menus. It has EDGE data transfer support, Internet browser, Net Front, E-mail and RSS reader. It connects through USB 2.0, infrared or Bluetooth 2.0 which works very good.
