Amazon.com Product Description
Sony Ericsson shakes things up with its new quad-band W580i Walkman phone, introducing an innovative "shake to shuffle" feature that randomly chooses another song stored on your phone with just a flick of the wrist. This thin, slider-style phone also features a 2-megapixel camera/camcorder, fast Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR connectivity with music streaming, Memory Stick Micro expansion, Web browser for viewing full Internet sites, email access, an FM radio with RDS, and EDGE data support. Unlocked Phone
This unlocked cell phone can be used with a GSM network service provider and it provides quad-band connectivity (850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz). It does not come with a SIM card, and it requires that you provide a SIM card for usage with your selected service provider. This phone comes with a one-year warranty from a third party provider. 
The slim slider W580i measures just 0.55 inches thin and includes a brightly colorful QVGA screen and dedicated music controls. | Phone Features
The W580i Walkman phone offers a full-function digital audio player that's compatible with MP3 and AAC files. The front of this slider phone includes dedicated music control buttons, and it includes Sony Ericsson's innovative "shake to shuffle" feature. With Shake control activated, press and hold the Walkman key and flick your wrist. A vibration lets you know that the track has been changed--a new song from your current playlist is randomly selected and automatically played. With the TrackID service, you can identify any song that you can hear by just recording a snippet of sound using the microphone. After sending the file for recognition, you'll have the name, artist and album sent to your phone. Other Walkman features include MegaBass enhancement for added depth of sound, a flight mode that lets you keep listening to tunes with the phone's network connectivity turned off, and Disc2Phone software for easy transfer of song files between phone and PC. It also includes a built-in FM radio with RDS, which displays the name of the currently playing song (when tuned to compatible radio stations). This phone provides Bluetooth version 2.0 wireless connectivity with EDR (enhanced data rate), and includes profiles for communication headset, handsfree car kits, and audio/video remote control. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones. You can connect your laptop (either via Bluetooth or wired USB) and enjoy dial-up networking--surf the Internet, send email, and access files from a server. 
The keypad slides smoothly open for dialing and texting. | The built-in 2.0 megapixel camera captures stills and video--and playback of video or still pictures is only limited to the memory card size. Picture effects and custom screensavers, backgrounds, and themes can be setup to fit your personality. It provides support for PictBridge technology so you can print your photos without the need of a PC (either using USB or Bluetooth). And the W580i makes it easy to send snapped photos directly to a blog or an online photo, complete with text. This phone is also compatible with RTSP/3GPP streaming video playback You can even take your favorite tracks to the track with the W580i, which will count your steps, your calories and monitor your running speed/distance/time with the integrated motion sensor. Your workout results are stored in your phone so you can monitor your progress. The phone also ships with a built-in email client with support for POP3 and IMAP4 protocols, while the included Access NetFront Web Browser allows you to surf full HTML web sites. It also supports RSS feeds, allowing you to use your phone to view up-to-the-minute news and other content from selected Web sites and blogs. Just subscribe to the feed and let it come to you. Support is built in for sending and receiving text, video, graphics and sound via messages. The phone also supports the SyncML PC synchronization standard. This means the phone can be used with the included Sony Ericsson Sync Station software, which lets you synchronize your Microsoft Outlook calendar, contacts, notes and tasks on your PC with the phone. Other features include: - 2-inch LCD with a 240 x 320-pixel resolution and support for 262K colors
- Up to 1000 contact entries, each with five number fields
- Java support for online and offline 3D games

 Walkman, camera, and cell phone! January 5, 2010

I've had this phone for 2 years now. I needed something light enough to clip on while at the gym. I hate carrying around my cell phone and mp3 player. The radio funtion is also pretty handy when at work. With AT&T, I almost always get indoor reception.
As a bonus, it takes great pictures! I personally love the "bursts" setting which takes 3 images in one second. It also takes great video! The external speakers work just like any other mp3 player, nano, etc. that's meant to be heard by one or two people. You wanna rock the house... invest is some external speakers.
I also use it for web, texting, checking my e-mails, and playing rockband. Heavy use of these last items would be more convenient on a smartphone. Time for an upgrade and I have my eye on the iPhone, but it's hard giving up my small phone.

The screen on this phone was shattered within 2 days of purchase. The only unusual wear and tear is that the phone was carried in my pocket instead of a case the first few days because I hadn't been able to purchase one yet. Also, now the phone randomly starts the Roger's music player. However, the phone arrived with everything listed in the ad and in the condition advertised.
 Great features terrable product! July 20, 2009

This phone is packed with features that we like, great camera, holds tons of music. We have had so many problems that we have had to exchange it 4 times now. The worst problem that we have is that with the charger. It wont connect. Problem is you also hook it up to the computer and headset. Won't hold a charge and very difficult to charge or connect to the computer or headset. Not happy with this phone at all!
Get the warranty, you will need it. July 14, 2009
S and P
Well I'll start with this. I liked the phone at first. But now that I've had it for a year and a half I absolutely hate it and can't wait to get something different. There are a few reasons for my utter hatred.
1: If you look at it wrong, the screen cracks. I've replaced the screen 4 times and it is currently cracked, but I refuse to replace it again. It is incredibly weak, and unfortunately no one makes a good phone case so there is no protection available.
2: The memory card slot never worked. I didn't get the warranty so I couldn't get the phone replaced. So, no music for me and it will only store about 10 pictures.
3: There's a 40% chance it will not work indoors. I've traveled to many places, and this seems pretty consistent. It's not an issue with the phone company because other people with the same carrier and different phones do not have this problem.
4: The volume and speakerphone are not loud enough. If you use this phone outdoors or in a noisy area, it is very difficult to hold a conversation.
5: Shuts off at random times. During calls or while it's in my pocket. It doesn't matter.
Overall, it looks like a nice, compact little slider. But this phone is poor quality through and through. Avoid it at all costs.

Q tip
its really cool with lots of fun features. i like the look a lot and it is really easy to use. there are some features i dont like, the side buttons which are normally used to adjust sound make a status of your phone pop up that includes battery life and memory status. it has music capability but my speaker does not work... and i have never used it but i found out it was blown after my first test of trying to listen to music. it slides decet but scrapes on itself and ruins the blue backing on the edges. Im probably just a little rough with my phone but i reccomend going to a store to get a closer look.
