The Sony Ericsson W995 is an excellent Walkman mobile phone, especially if entertainment on a handset is key to your happiness. With Media Go™, the W995’s inbuilt organiser, it’s never been as easy to take your multimedia with you on the go. The W995 also has file conversion software ensuring very little quality will be lost when you transfer music and videos from your PC to the mobile phone.

Media Go™ synchronises your music playlists automatically, giving you instant access to your favourite songs. With Shake Control, you don’t just have a conventional keypad. With a shake of your hand this super-cool Walkman phone lets you skip forward or backward through playlists. A nonchalant flick of the wrist can shuffle, skip, or repeat songs, choose a random track to play, or boost up the volume.

This modern and advanced mobile phone has an excellent music player that comes with SensMe™ technology, which chooses songs to listen to, based around the mood and tempo of tracks you’ve listened to recently. This idea is based around Sony Ericsson’s unique on-screen display, which defines music based on tempo and style, not like other phones that only look at the names of artists or albums.

The Sony Ericsson W995 has eight graphic equalisers, letting you manipulate the music to suit you personal tastes. Stereo speakers provide listening pleasure you can share with your friends, and the handset is Bluetooth capable so you can listen wirelessly on your own Bluetooth headset. FM radio is also there for people who want to get on the airwaves.

For the internet, you can get online with a quick 3G connection, or if a hotspot's available, via Wi-Fi. You can send email, browse the Web, download media, or update your social network statuses, all on the single handheld device.

For the budding photographers out there, the W995 comes with a sizable 8.1 Megapixel camera, including photoflash, so you have much less chance of making mistakes when taking your shots. The quality of photos is so good you can print pictures up to an A3 size without any distortion at all.

The 2.6-inch screen display is great for the camera’s video recorder function. You can direct your own documentaries and comic tragedies, and as the phone is YouTube compatible, you can upload them to the internet, or go online and watch other people’s clips. Real-time video streams from the Web are not an issue, and they are downloaded in high quality resolution.

The standard issue 8 GB memory card lets you save thousands of songs, plus hundreds of videos and image files. The Sony Ericsson W995 entertainment phone is great across all media, whether you’re watching films on the bright 2.6-inch display, listening to music on the stereo speakers, or taking photos of family and friends with the 8.1 Megapixel camera.
