Editors' rating style="text-align:right; display: inline; color:#FF0000;">7/10 Very Good Provided by: What’s It For? Voice calls; music playback; tapping out text Who’s It For? Users who want a slim fashionable music phone. We like Slim design; Walkman Player 2.0; 3G connectivity; ability to post pictures on Blogger. We don’t like Small keys on the keypad; lack of auto-focus and flash on the camera. Accessories Sony Memory Stick Micro; Bluetooth headphones CNET.co.uk judgement The W880i looks fantastic and is so slim you'll barely notice it in your pocket. It comes with a 1GB card that lets you store about 240 of your favourite songs and a music player that sounds great. Unfortunately, it features a tiny and very fiddly navigation key and very small keys on the keypad, which make using it very frustrating.
