Sony Ericsson W910i

One of the latest phones that came in my hand was the W910i from Sony Ericsson. It is a very good phone. I'll comment below some of its nice features it has.

HSDPA internet acces (HSDPA means High Speed Downlink Packet Access). It is one of the few mobile phones now that have this feature. I tested the speed on my mobile subscription and the download speed is about 75-80 KB/s which is similar to 1Mb ADSL download speed .

TrackID is one of the most impressive features. I am not sure if any other mobile terminal manufacturer have it. What is it: you are in bar or club and you hear some music that you like but you don't know who sings it. You than just open the TrackID application which takes a sample of that music connect to a server and guess what? It tells you the name of the song, the artist and the ablum. Even more you can download the tone or the complete song (of course you have to pay for it...).

Send to blog is a feature that is very useful for people who have blogs and want to post pictures while traveling for example. when you take a picture with the built in camera (2 Mpx) you have the option to send the picture directly to the blog. Currently only Blogspot is supported, probably there is an agreement between Google and Sony Ericsson on this.

It have a built in sensor that feels the position of the phone. This is used in one of the games (you move the ball while moving the phone) and in the picture view (when you rotate the phone the picture automatically rotates)

You can find a lot of information about this phone on Sony Ericsson website.
