Sony Ericsson W205
$150.00
Released July, 2009
The Pros:Feels sturdy enough to handle a few knocks and drops without breaking. With the slide down the build profile is very small, fits in a purse easily. Camera is above-average, pictures come out sharp and clear.
The Cons:Generally a lower-end phone, doesn't have a lot of features. Buttons on the numberpad are cheap and feel like you have to push hard to get them to go. Screen is small and crappy (individual pixels are visible), has a large border.
