as requested by a couple of fellow bikers, here i'll post my personal review and sample pics using my Sony Ericsson W800i.
First up, never was a fan of celfones,was a late bloomer when it comes to one first one i got was a nokia 3310 god knows how long that was.used it for years and years until i lost it one night at eastwood to party goin pick pockets late last year (that's another story , and a memorable night for me ) bought a Motorola e398 after that. and i was like WHOA!! cam fone at last! and great sounding external speakers (the only one with surround sound) but lacks memory and its not that fast according to a friend who's a celfone junkie and as he rated it , it was like 5 out of 10. and then it came , an offer i cant resist, a w800i at a great price, hesitant at first because its a bit pricey but i gave in. swapped the Motorola++ a couple thousand cash for it and i was impressed. memory alone of 512MB was very impressive , internal it has 34mb i believe. needed a couple of days to get used to its interface,its really fast and has easy navigation. loved the sound using the stereo headphones and the external speakers are good enough as well. one thing when u have a large memory is that u dont need to compress the mp3 files which will make the sound quality dull. i load 100++ songs on it and blow my mind away. now as for the camera,2MP is all i need.crisp shots and there are a lot of settings u can fiddle with to make the pics more interesting like panoramic shots,black and white , sephia etc. video quality is very good as well. all in all, its a great all in one fone.if u dont like bringing a couple of gadgets for your daily needs,this works best.you get a celfone,digital cam,video cam,mp3 player,media player,flashlite and tons more. am happy with it and still having second thoughts if i still will sell it
as for using it when biking,its kinda hard esp wearing while wearing gloves when taking pics because it kunda slips when holding it. dirt wise,i keep it in my sunglass pouch all the time.and battery life is long as well.depending on how much usage it gets.regularly it lasts me 2 days,thats playing music and occasionally taking pics and stuff.will post more sample pics later on.
if i forgot any other details please ask me. tnx for reading
my novel.hehehe
