Sony Ericsson P800 Review
And here we have it, after a year worth of making a name for the company and some solid releases, Sony Ericsson unleash the P800 on the world!! The Sony Ericsson P800 was their first PDA, it had not only a colour screen but also a touch screen with stylus which slotted into the phone and had a camera which was very advanced for a phone of 2002. The Sony Ericsson P800 had features which would make some computers blush, it had something called Pc suite which had a calendar, email inbox, photo album, appointment setter and much more that a professional would need. The Sony Ericsson P800 had a memory card slot which had 16mb memory, it had 13 hours talk time and also allowed you to disconnect the flip keypad and make the phone completely touch screen. The P800 was a remarkable phone which had no rivals from ANY other mobile phone manufacturer and was probably the most advanced phone of its time. Sony Ericsson seemed as though they had taken the mobile phone title for 2002 with the P800. Reviews for the Sony Ericsson P800 were brilliant everyone loved it, anyone that still had the phone to this day and there weren’t many found that the flip broke, touch screen stopped working and a number of other faults, as the phone was so advanced for its time (I think it was the first touch screen ever) there was no wonder that after years of use there would be faults! The Sony Ericsson P800 was a great phone!
