With a slide out nicely spaced keyboard and aluminum outside, this mobile is an elegant addition to Sony Ericsson’s Walkman Series. Display size is quite wide with 320 x 240 pixels resolution, enabling the user to experience a better quality of video viewing, gaming or web browsing. Auto rotate is another exciting element that rotates the screen in horizontal and vertical directions mechanically, sensing the motion of hand. With 95 x 47.5 x 14.3 mm dimensions and 96 grams of weight, this is a nice, slim and sleek slider phone which is not at all difficult to carry.

It is also the first music dedicated phone to present Wi-Fi. Equipped with almost every in-demand technology; this phone has more to offer than mere music. HSDPA, Wi-Fi, Edge, HSCSD and Always-on internet are the most prominent applications which keep the user connected to their social networks.

W705 has two cameras; a primary 3.5 mp camera with LED flash, auto focus and 3x zoom, and a secondary video call camera. Camera works rather adequately as the phone is Music oriented.

The key feature of every Walkman Phone is its music quality; SE has actually presented it in an enhanced form in this phone. User can easily choose favorite tracks through SenseMe, adjust volume level and shuffle play list through Shake Control, enjoy clearer music through Clear Bass and Clear Stereo, take pleasure in listening to preferred tracks via included headset, or listen to random music through FM radio.

It provides desktop direct search for online music, pre-included Google maps, and a large memory storage option of 4 GB. In all, this is an attractive and a stylish handset, with every required feature and perfect music quality.
