Sony Ericsson W8 Overview

Sony Erisson has long been rumored to be revitalizing the Walkman brand with Android at the helm, and while it may have taken nearly a year for that vision to come to fruition, it's finally here - the Sony Ericsson W8. it's not going to be a device for you powerhouse users with its 600MHz processor, 168MB of RAM, 3.2-inch display and Android 2.1, but it's sure to be a fine device for those who want a good audio player and want to identify with the Walkman brand once again.

Sony Ericsson hasn't mentioned a date for the smallish beaut, but we imagine it'll be here in time for the summer as it accompanies you on your jogs and walks on the beaches of the world.

Phone Arena
"The Sony Ericsson W8 is an attempt to revive the Walkman brand and bring it to the world of modern smartphones with the help of Android – its rather outdated 2.1 Eclair version, to be exact."
GSMArena
"No pause and rewind. Fast forward instead and rebrand. The Sony Ericsson W8 is an Xperia X8 in Walkman guise."
