Yesterday bought new Sony Ericsson Spiro. A small, cute budget walkman phone for Sony Ericsson lovers. Spiro costs Rs. 8500/- and its a great value for money in countries like Pakistan and India.
What you get is amazing, a slide phone with a 2.2inch TFT 256K color screen. SE Walkman player 4.0, Track ID music recognition, 2MP camera, SMS in threaded view with looks like as though you are chatting. Quite fast like other SE phones. Supports MicroSD upto 16GB. Battery time is good, thanks to 1000mAh Li-ion battery. Speaker sound is loud and much better than any K-series and most of the W-series of SE like K750i, K850i, W910i, W980i and W960i. Themes, wallpapers and screen savers are all there like in other SE phones. Has got one game ( Quadrapop ) as default. USB 2.0 and Bluetooth 2.1 are all there...
THE DOWN SIDE:
Since its cheap, this phone has got few issues. Internal memory is only 5MB so when you are playing a long playlist or seeing messages in threaded view, it gets very slow. Camera doesn't have the right resolution and you can't capture pictures in fullscreen. There is no flash and at last I've got to say that it isn't very stylist, every color except stealth black is crap. You don't get accessories, only charger and 3rd class handsfree. Casing is all plastic....
VERDICT:
If you are short on money then its a must buy but if you can afford more then W395 must be your choice. Price of W395 is Rs. 10,200/-
SE has done awesome feat. If SE keeps it up, i guess it will take over the market, at this price SE is giving a good thing.
