Sony Ericsson W302 Review
Phone rating:
In a nutshell: A budget Walkman phone, the W302 appears to offers
a lot in an attractive slimline package: 2 megapixel camera, video camera,
Walkman player, FM radio, memory card and Bluetooth. But the keys are
small, the menu slow and the sound a bit too quiet. No themes are available
to install and there is no PC sync software. Available in Midnight Black
or Sparkling White.
Review: January 2009. Updated June 2009.
Sony Ericsson have done a lot with the W302 to bring their Walkman
range within reach of the entry-level market. This phone now retails
for well under £100. It's an attractive superslim phone, measuring
just 10.5mm thick and weighing a featherlight 78g. With an aluminium
front, it feels strong enough to take some damage despite its small
size. We'll take one star away for the keypad however, as the keys are
gratuitously small and spaced out too far.
This is definitely a step up from previous budget Walkman phones like
the W200i or W350i,
which both missed out on some important features such as Bluetooth or
a video recorder. There's nothing obviously missing from the spec of
the W302. The screen is a TFT display with 262,000 colours, although
the resolution is a little on the low side at 176 x 220 pixels. The
camera is reasonable - 2 megapixels plus a video recorder - although
there's no flash. Obviously there's an excellent Walkman player included,
plus the bonus of an FM radio with RDS. The memory is rather small,
at just 20 MB, but you can add memory cards up to 4GB. Connectivity
is by Bluetooth or USB. Battery life is average.
However, even though this is a budget phone, there are still some problems
that are really unacceptable. We deducted one star for the keypad, and
we also have issues with the low volume from the speaker, the lack of
customisable themes, and the fact that the phone menus are so slow.
There is no PC sync software supplied, so the only way to move data
onto the phone is via USB mass storage. Texting using the T9 software
is painful, and the network connection doesn't seem to be robust, with
the phone sometimes losing the network even in a good signal location.
Although Sony Ericsson have packed a lot into this phone, we still feel
that we should get more for our money. It could have been a 5 star phone
if Sony Ericsson had put some more effort into ironing out these problems.
We'd recommend the Nokia 5310 XpressMusic
as a better alternative.
Features of the Sony Ericsson W302 include:
- 2 megapixel camera with 2.5x digital zoom and image stabiliser
- Video camera
- Display: TFT, 262,000 colours, 176 x 220 pixels

This is a terrible phone slow menu rubbish themes and diabolical sound!
what where they thinking about when they made this phone? I gave this
phone 2 stars because there's this site called my W302 where you can
get themes,ringtones.images and very good selection of games. Did i
mention the poor signal quality and the internet that take a million
years to load? please do not buy this or you will be regreting it. Go
buy a W705 if you want a phone that's 10x better.

I've also been fooled into buying this phone when I saw wich features
it had for such a low price. Every phone should at least work fine,
no matter how expensive or cheap. They better make their budget phones
with less (smooth working) features instead of adding all the features
of a more expensive phone in poor quality.

was an untrusted application, even though it came already installed

my sim card (i back them up there expecting to be able to get them back
from my old phone) guess i'll have to go back to my w300i...it's the

Go this wee phone for €50 - bargain. If you want a phone that does
everything then go spend the money on one, however, if you want a simple
tidy phone for messaging, calls & walkman you couldn't beat this for
the price. To upload tunes just plug the USB cable in and do it via
mass storage (no hassle).I put a 2gb memory card in mine so there's
loads of room for music.

I use my phone for talking and text messaging. The other features are
nice-to-haves. As other reviewers have mentioned, the sound level is
low, but another irritation is the fact that the phone has only one
barely audible message alert tone leading the user to have to waste
their time searching for useful tones and writing disgruntled reviews.
I previously used the Z310i, a very basic phone but a solid one. For
text messaging, my personal preference is to use predictive text, and
with the Z310i, this was an absolute pleasure. With that phone I was
able to efficiently type quite lengthy messages with limited discomfort.
The W310 becomes slower and slower as a message gets longer, with the
text display lagging the typing by 1 or 2 words after a mere 3 or 4
lines. I understand that predictive text usually uses space characters
to sense the end of word. The W302 often decides in mid word that it
has reached the end and needs to start a new word, leading to absolute
gobbledygook. Because of the delay these are not seen immediately and
one ends up with a message largely needing to be retyped. Adding to
the frustration is inaccessibility to the custom dictionary. Every once
in a while some said gobbledygook would get added to the dictionary
(Yes, it does this automatically and without confirmation) and the only
way to remove it seems to be a system reset. Quality, from the customer
perspective is a measure of how well a product satisfies his/her personal
requirements. If I were rating a walkman or camera, I’d give this
a few stars, but since my personal requirement is for a communication
tool, I feel it fails dismally. I’d give it a zero rating if that
were possible….

Id give this fone 5 stars if it wasnt for the fact that ive only had
it a week and have already gotta send it back for a repair job coz i
keep getting the wsod even tho ive done as suggested bymanual eg a master
reset and took battery and sim out to reboot. Makes no difference my
fone still freezes esp if i listen to music on it which is totally anoying
and i either have to turn it on and off to get it working again or leave
it to ride out coz it wont even switch off. I even sent a msg to se
for advice and they toldme to go to their website and do a software
update on the fone and that will sort it- only prob is u cant do software
updates on the W302 so they dont even know what they are talking bout.
Other anoying thing is it dont come with a cd so u have to go on se
site and download what u need frm there for the fone. You need to download
media manager on ur pc to transfer music to ur fone frm ur pc but it
dont mention any of that in the manual plus when u select the W302 o
n the website and it comes up with all the download info it does not
have the media manager download so i had to select a different phone
and download it frm the information for that fone which is stupid. Apart
frm all that the fone is great and i hope the sort the wsod problemout
for good coz i do like the fone a lot. Its really stylish looking,light
and easy to you plus you get 2 memory cards with it.

Good points: Value for money (I paid < £55). SE definitely have good
FM radio chips. Relatively small and light. Comes with jack for alternative
(non-SE) headphones. Bad points: The W302 does NOT sync with Outlook,
despite what's claimed in some places on the web. No software to manage
MP3 files on the phone from a PC. The download of MP3 files feels cheap
& clunky; it's just treating the phone and its memory card as USB storage
devices. Games, themes, etc. are of no interest to me.

The biggest flaw of the phone is its inability to synchronize contact
data with a PC. What's the point in having all the needed interfaces(blue
tooth and USB) and not being able to backup your phones data to the
PC! Nice design but it feels like an unfinished product, since the firmware
unnecessarily prevents the much needed PC-synchronization. Besides that
the output volume of MP3's is low and the battery life is not that great.
Please fix it Sony Ericsson!

i got this phone december 30 2008. at first i thought it's the same
with the w890i exept for the a2dp, 3g,megapix of the cam, and network
capability.but it's not.first it's not stable.if i type fast on the
numpad for text messaging it doesnt give the correct alphabet. example
is when i press the number 6 button twice as fast as possible, instead
of giving me an "n" it gives "mm".second it has low memory.if i send
a big mp3 file via bluetooth,it can only store up to the memory available
at that time.example, i'll send a 6mb mp3 file, if the unit has only
3mb left on its internal, probably shared, memory it can only accept
that, so the file is incomplete,but it can be remedied by restarting
the phone.third the shortcuts are limited.if you use the w890 or even
my old k810, you can select wherever you want to shortcut.like sms/inbox
or filemanager/music or no matter how deep it is from the root menu.last
is the charging,it doesn't show you realtime status of the percentage
of the battery being charged.the bar still moves from end to end unlike
the other w series that when it's about to be full the bar moves closer
to the "full end" and you can not add more themes and operator logos
in to it.the appearance is nice though

i heard bad reviews on this phone but the w302 is outstandingly brilliant
phone it has all the latest features and many more like the 2mp camera
radio and the walkman is just to good for it. it has a nice design slim
kind of but low on sound.

A phone at this price is not going to contain every up to date peice
of technology. I have owned this a week and it has been great. It does
everything I want it to. The keypad is a bit on the small side but after
a short amount of time you will still get used to it. Camera is good
for a 2mp. Does what it says on the tin.

It has got a pretty good keypad even though it is pretty small, looks
good and has the usual walkman player etc, so the music side of it is
good. as for the rest it seams a bit of a con to call this a se, as
the software inside it is terrible, it looks like se but its so restrictive.
such a shame as if this had been sorted before release it would have
been a much better phone. fingers crossed for an update :(

Do not buy! Speaker phone is useless! Keypad is too small! Contact list

bought many of their phones. This is one that I regretted big time.

First off, everyone bitching about how bad this phone is is spoiled.
How can you expect a phone at such a low cost to do all the things of
a cell twice its price? And if you bitch because of its features, maybe
you should've researched it more. This phone does the job. It places
calls, receives calls and texts just fine. Camera is pretty good, but
seriously if you wanna take a good pic, pull out a real camera; and
if you want better music quality, go buy some vinyls.

me coz it aint got no room for themes! But the music wid earphones ON
is pretty gud!

i got this phone december 30 2008. at first i thought it's the same
with the w890i exept for the a2dp, 3g,megapix of the cam, and network
capability.but it's not.first it's not stable.if i type fast on the
numpad for text messaging it doesnt give the correct alphabet. example
is when i press the number 6 button twice as fast as possible, instead
of giving me an "n" it gives "mm".second it has low memory.if i send
a big mp3 file via bluetooth,it can only store up to the memory available
at that time.example, i'll send a 6mb mp3 file, if the unit has only
3mb left on its internal, probably shared, memory it can only accept
that, so the file is incomplete,but it can be remedied by restarting
the phone.third the shortcuts are limited.if you use the w890 or even
my old k810, you can select wherever you want to shortcut.like sms/inbox
or filemanager/music or no matter how deep it is from the root menu.last
is the charging,it doesn't show you realtime status of the percentage
of the battery being charged.the bar still moves from end to end unlike
the other w series that when it's about to be full the bar moves closer
to the "full end" the appearance is nice though

SE apparently decided to put the applications, games and music/pictures
in 3 separate places. At times the phone seems to restart for no obvious
reason and I had it crash on me a couple of times. This phone can only
use preinstalled themes leaving users with very little customization
options. The price is also quite high (1400rmb) for a low-end device.
I'd recommend this phone if SE can half its price.

Maybe a bit less than you may expect from Sony Ericsson, but still good

be solved during software update (I hope). So, all in all, good phone!
