Loading ...We’re taking a closer look at the W715
Just got my hands on the brand new W715, and wanted to share a few very quick pictures and thoughts of it with you. Enjoy! 
The W715 looks and feels a lot like the classic W880, yet in a more modern package a la the W995.
The W715 is a slim and compact phone that feels as light as a feather in your hand.
Here it is with Sony Ericsson’s upcoming W995. There are quite a bit of similarities, both design and specification wise.
Contrary to the W995, the keypad on the W715 feels good to use.
The back of the W715 is rubberized, and feels rather good. The 3.2 megapixel camera is located on the top with an LED flash, and there’s an interesting texture design on the back of the slider.
And here it is from another view, where it almost looks blue.
I will do a (video) preview of the W715 soon-ish and a gallery of the phone as well. Perhaps even an unboxing video, if you’re interested in that kind of stuff. Stay tuned for more!

IMO, the W705/W715 is more elegant, whilst the W995 has a more industrial design. Both are pretty good though.
Hi! Help me to decide. I like 715’s design more. I think they are pretty much identical in terms of software and hardware. I don’t care much about the camera. However I do care a lot about the sound. Not only the headphone output, but the quality of the built in speakers as well. I currently have w880, and my major concern is the sound of the built in speaker. It is terrible. I want the phone to sound good at any time, with and without external speakers of any kind. How would you judge the w715 from this point?
I’ve also got great tiny speakers from w880, so I don’t much care about the bundled speakers with 995.
The W995’s loudspeakers are definitely much better than W715’s.
