The folks at GsmArena have just published a comprehensive review of the Sony Ericsson G705. Here's what they had to say:


Guts to stand up to smartphones and utterly self-effacing looks is a nice little twist we guess. It's like the G705 is there saying "Misjudge me, be my guest".

Yes, with a feature set like that, looks are the last thing it needs to boost self-esteem. Actually, if that's how midrange spec sheets are shaping, we dare not imagine what better treats future top devices hold in stock for us. If nothing else, Sony Ericsson G705 deserves credit for pioneering the shift.

It seems Sony Ericsson do have a winner here.

Can't you just flash your existing G705 with W705 firmware? Just like the S500i and W580i

Probably, this time I don't see any diffrence between the devices. unlike s500@W580i didn't have a working radio nor shake control.

Well the fact that it's not free forever it's just another money making scheme. So no, I won't be using it.

I use GPS on my phone a lot - not for anything serious though laugh.gif, just to get around unfamiliar places by foot. And I get 1gb of internet transfers for free, so I wouldn't worry about that!

Thanks
