Sony Ericsson C905 Mobile Phone Review - The Ringing, Talking Digital Camera

Posted: Apr 03, 2009 | Comments: 0 | Views: 157 | Bookmark and Share

Seemingly not a year goes by when Sony Ericsson does not release one of its high end Cybershot phone. This year is no different! The Sony Ericsson C905 is the latest of the Cybershot offerings that Sony has in store for us all. In fact, the C905 goes one step further than all other Sony Ericsson camera phones do, and that is not just down to the touch screen technology that is on board. It is jam packed full of features that would leave every user salivating, but does the handset live up to the hype?

The Sony Ericsson C905 is a candy bar phone but is a little larger than the candy bars that you may be used to. In fact, it is huge in comparison but seems much more solid than you would have imagined possible! It is by no means slim but this does not seem to matter when you delve a little below the surface. If you do want a stylish phone above all else then this model is not for you but it may well be very persuasive when you look deeper into the features list. Having said that, the 2.8 inch QVGA screen dominates the handset and is extremely effective in making it look much more appealing.

The camera is a definite strength of the Sony Ericsson C905 and provides mobile phone fans with one of the best mobile cameras around. It is packed full of features to enhance the images you take on the phone and resembles a digital camera more than a mobile phone camera as a result. There is a Xenon flash, auto focus, face recognition, best pic options, blur shake reduction and software in the handset to improve images as and when you like. Furthermore the camera is a whopping 8MP so the images you get are guaranteed to blow you away. The colours are crisp, the detail excellent and the usability could not be better!

There are several other nice touches hidden in the Sony Ericsson C905 feature list. For example, it comes complete with GPS and Google Maps, which would save you from buying a separate GPS system for your car. There are also many connectivity options in there, including WiFi, bluetooth, USB and a great web browser. The memory is also good to help support the above features at 160MB with a 2GB memory stick available to boost it.

There are a few niggles associated with the Sony Ericsson C905. The buttons on the keypad provide one of them. They are closely set and hard to press if your fingers are a little on the long or chunky side. It does not provide a comfortable texting experience at first but it is possible to get used to it. The battery is also drained by use of the camera or GPS system so you may need to charge your phone regularly if you use either feature.

Overall though, there is very little to pick fault with on the Sony Ericsson C905. The phone is excellent and has been designed with technology and functionality in mind. The appearance of the handset really does not matter when you begin to use it. There are very few better camera phones available so why not invest in the best?
