An upgrade to the venerable z520, the W300i adds a memory card slot and EDGE high-speed data. The W300i version also adds Walkman music player and styling. Other key features include Bluetooth, camera, internal antenna, and speakerphone. All this goodness is delivered in a package that is smaller and lighter than its predecessor. With dual screens and a VGA camera with video capabilities, the W300i is a serious next-generation phone. It’s the perfect handset for folks who want to get all the latest wireless goodies in one chic package, and the perfect companion to Cingular Wireless service.

Mobile ReviewAt the moment, Motorola v360 can be considered as main competitor for Z530i, since this model is available worldwide and costs less. The difference in package, functionality well, that’s a minus, but better display is a certain plus. |

Techtree.comNow, considering that this phone should have been the perfect replacement for the W550i, at least according to the pricing; it doesn’t match up to the W550i in terms of camera quality. Anyways, it still remains the best Walkman player you could buy for cheap bucks. |

Good Gear GuideA solid walkman phone that is let down a little by its irritating keypad. If you need a small handset with great music playback this is a good choice. |

Pocket-lintUnless you are a die hard fan, stick to the unfussed original W300. |

GadgetSpeakA mobile phone is no longer judged solely on its telephony merits; PDA, photographic and entertainment aspects are needed to bolster the package. |
