Advantages: OK Camera

Disadvantages: Comes with crap headphones.

I have always bought Sony Ericsson walkman phones for the music features.
Prior to my current upgrade to the Sony Ericsson W595, I had a W880i which I loved! So this phone had big expectations to live up to.

I would say all in all it is not as good as my W880i, mainly the sound quality on the walkman is not as loud. Also the new style headphone that came with it sit further outside the ear and therefore it appears to sound quieter, I still have my headphone from the W880i so had gone back to using them on this phone.
Also the Calendar appointments reminder tone is too silent resulting in me missing 4 appointments/events since I have had this phone! This phone is also heavier than the W880i, oh and the options are on the opposite side... This took me about 3 month to get use to!
One feature that is better is the camera, but I don't really use the camera on my phone so this is really of no true interest to me.

Summary: There are better SE Walkman ph's out there.
