Brief Review:



The Sony Ericsson's W580i mobile phone is a slider, quad band GSM world phone that's offered by AT&T in the US and has EDGE for data. There are some variations in the packaging and software bundles between the to units.This review covers both.
Sony Ericsson Walkman phones have a bit of Euro chic. The Sony W580i however has a more modest slider design, though it does have a touch of style: the side of the phone is curved rather than straight. The slider form ensures that the 2" display, large d-pad and slide-out number pad can fit into a small phone that's shirt or jeans pocket-friendly.
Sony Ericsson phones have always been heavy hitters in the entertainment department, and the W580i Walkman phone is no exception.
Sony Ericsson added another catch to music playback: Shake Control. Like other Walkman phones, the W580i supports music files in the (MP3/AAC/AAC+/e-AAC+) formats and you can rip music CDs using the included Disc2Phone software for Windows.
