According to the official sources, Sony Ericsson low-end slider-phone W205 Walkman™ have a problem. All phones produced in early 2010 have shorter standby time. Probably, the problem is in the phone’s software. Yet, I don’t know how Sony Ericsson planned to solve this problem. If you noticed something wrong with your phone please contact Sony Ericsson Call Center.

W205 is a low-end Walkman™ phone, which was announced on April and released in July 2009. W205 is small and compact slider, which has all must-have features: 1.8″ 128×160 pixels screen, 1.3 Megapixel camera, Walkman™ player etc. W205 has only 5 MB built-in memory, but it supports Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) cards up to 2GB.
