The key feature for all devices in Sony Ericsson’s Walkman series have always been its music features with the camera always staying in the shadows. Apparently, it’s time for a change and the new W902 is the messenger of a new era. It is a high class phone equipped with a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus. The display is 2.2 inches and supports 262k colors, which is standard for phones of such class.

The software is identical to Sony Ericsson W980’s or in other words, it’s the latest one offered by the company. The only application available to be placed on the homescreen is the "Standby World Clock 3D”. It has 3 changing clocks, indicating the time in London, New York and Tokyo and to our regret, these cities cannot be changed.

All multimedia features have been packed in the flash menu we are familiar with. Now, its background has the same motives as the theme used and not only a dark or a light version like in the previous models. The phone employs the latest, third version of the player which can be controlled via the accelerometer. It also adds some extra options compared to previous models with the ShakeMe function.

In contrast to them, besides for changing the current track, it can also be used to control the volume. To do that, you have to hold the Walkman button and tilt the phone towards or away from you. The equalizer selection menu looks very good, but not the visualizations seen when listening to music, because they are too small.

In the previous high-class Walkman phones, the camera interface was similar to that of the cameraphones with a few minor differences. In W902 we see all the extras, including color pictures, indicating the various scenes and the BestPic option. The geo-tagging of pictures is done in an interesting way. Since the phone doesn’t have a built-in GPS, for the purpose the information of the GSM cells is used. This of course is not the most precise way to do it but we thing it’s good enough for picture tagging.

The Internet browser is also very promising, because it opens heavy pages without a problem and there is pan view as well, which greatly facilitates navigation. Thanks to the accelerometer, you can easily switch from portrait to landscape view. It is also used as a game control, which is quite entertaining.

The Sony Ericsson W902 delivers music as it was meant to be heard through Sony Ericsson’s revolutionary clear audio experience. With crystal clear sound quality and a dramatically richer bass, together with Sony Ericsson premium headphones, HPM-77 included in-box, your favourite tracks will sound better than ever. The W902 features the same superior sound quality
