 The Sony Ericsson W350 looks fantastic, but its performance doesn't quite live up. Perhaps we've been spoiled by the high-end Walkman experience we've had on other Sony Ericsson phones, like the Sony Ericsson W580i, but as a bargain phone, with a low-resolution screen and some flimsy hardware, the Walkman experience just doesn't work. We love the design, but when the tiny buttons and difficult controls make using the device more difficult, that love begins to wane. Worst of all, the Sony Ericsson Media Manager is the most difficult media transfer software we've used with a modern music phone, which makes the phone's prospects even more grim. In spite of the design, the phone packs some decent Web browsing and camera features, so its not a total wash, but if you're buying this phone for the music, you're probably better off investing just a bit more in a better Walkman phone, or looking elsewhere. Release: June 2008. Price: $1.
Pros: Attractive design. Easy to synch with Outlook contacts and calendar. Good camera. Fine Web browser.
Cons: Typing and navigation difficult, even in messaging and music functions. Media Manager is buggy and difficult to use. Music experience needs drastic improvement to match other Walkman phones.
