Sony Ericsson W350 Cell Phone Review
 Tired of carrying around a dedicated digital music player and a cell phone? Do you also want the smallest possible converged device to do both, to boot? If so, the W350 may be right up your alley. With its Walkman-branded music software, the ability to download music over the cellular network through AT&T's music services, and weighing in at a scant 2.8 ounces, the W350 appears to be a ready and willing contender among music-oriented phones. AT&T is currently selling this petite dynamo for $0 with a new 2-year contract, the best possible price in our book, and in yours too, we'd bet. But without the ability to capture video and play back common video file formats and a few other issues, is this price still good enough to make up for its shortcomings? Read the full review to find out...

Sony Ericsson Z750a Cell Phone Review
 The Sony-Ericsson Z750a is an entry level flip phone that represents Sony-Ericsson's first 3G device for AT&T. As with any 3G device we were concerned about battery life, but found ourselves pleasantly surprised by the results of our tests. In fact we found ourselves smiling a lot as we wrote this review. The Z750a is akin to Quasimodo, on the face it might not look great, but underneath there's a lot to love.

Sony Ericsson W760 First Impression Cell Phone Review
 The W760 is essentially the W580i with insane software upgrades and a slightly different case. Like Motorola's Z10, the W760 has video editing software, which, if these phones are any indication, is the latest trend in cell phones. Unlike the Z10, however, the W760 isn't a smart phone, so you can't outfit it will all sorts of third-party programs. On the positive side, the W760 has such high quality software that the lack of extensibility really shouldn't be much of an issue for most users. The price for an unlocked version reflects this: at $399, an unlocked W760 has to compete with fully-featured smart phones. With a carrier contract, however, the price is estimated to be at about $99. If this price point sticks, and carriers don't cripple many features, the W760 is set to be a great deal.

Sony Ericsson W580i Cell Phone Review
 The W580i is one of Sony Ericsson's line of Walkman-branded handsets. These music focused phones are popular globally, but few of them have made it to the United States. The W580i is one of the few that has, carried by AT&T. And it's a good pick for the carrier; it provides a decent set of media features that is on par with many more expensive handsets. True to its Walkman billing, the W580i's music player does a very good job, but it didn't last that long playing back music; we measured the battery life at 5 hours and 32 minutes. That's enough for everyday use, but is significantly shorter than other phones. Video playback was also a disappointment; the screen is too small for comfortable viewing, and the controls are awkward to use. The 2-megapixel camera takes decent photos, but the audio quality in calls could have been better. We did find the interface to be surprisingly responsive, and we liked the capabilities of the Web browser, which is good enough for casual browsing.
