My question is for sony V640 (aka K630) or W910 lovers.

What phone do you like more the sony V640 (aka K630) or the sony W910 & why?

I'm asking because before i made a topic asking what cellphone i should get & with help from fellow esato users i choose the W910 but i currently own a V640 (aka K630) so i'm wondering now if i made a good choice be honest thats what i want.

UPDATE 6.02.09: Check out my new full review of the V640i by clicking here

Now to be fair i can't comment good nor bad on the W910 as i don't have it yet which is why i started this topic so i can get your opinions.

I can say from research.

The W910 is a well designed slider phone with shake n shuffle feature & sensMe.

To be honest thats all i can say now as i don't have one yet its in transit.

So now its your personal opinion esato forum users whats your favorite the V640 (aka K630) or W910 & why?

I'll read all replys in this topic & reply if needed so look forward to your opinions.

Flattery will get you everywhere!
Here you go...

V640i


W910i


Specifications: K630i(V640i) v W910

V640i is a very good phone and excellent value, you made a good choice in buying it, but W910 is better. It's retail price was double the V640i retail when released, so it looks pretty good at NZ$399 quite frankly.

CarKitter your a legend thanks mate.

Oh hey Esato users another con with the V640 is it only play 10secs for message tones.

That Brings up this question does the W910 play full message tones?

If not do any Sony Ericssons?

Further more if there are no Sony Ericssons that play full message tones is there a way to make them play longer.

Say like put a full track mp3 as a message tone & when someones txtes it plays fully?

Thanks in advance.

Hey mate, another NZer here. I had the W910i (in fact that's my exact one in the picture above) and have had the opportunity to play with my friend's V640i. Both are great little phones so you're not doing bad either way. Overall I'd say the W910i is slightly better, and cheap now too.

On message tone lengths, all my SE phones have been restricted to 10 seconds. It is not just a V640i thing. You must understand that all these phones are essentially running the same software which has been optimised for each individual phone, so there will be no differences between phones on small things like message tone length.

Yup i'm from NZ, Hawkes Bay born & bred...i see you were once in Australia or did you move there from New Zealand?



I got a W910 which is in transit picked it up via Trade Me its brand new & talking cheap it was only $250 but thats the thing the Trader just listed it 1day & 10mins (or so) before i clicked by now if i waited 1 more hour i bet it would of sold there popular on Trade Me more so then the V640's so that must say something they have about a 80% sell rate on Trade Me & the ones that don't sell are normally just the ones that are over $399 (yes there are a few which is a laugh some people must not keep up with sales i suppose) but back on topic now in your personal opinion what was the pros & cons of the W910 anyone can feel free to leave a small review on either the V640 (aka the K630) or the W910 i love to hear your opinions.



This is a con in my view i don't exactly like the 10sec tones its bad if your got a important message you go outside for like 20secs & leave your phone inside & unless you pick up your phone to look you don't know that you got a message but hey i can overlook that i suppose after all i do adore the V640 its the best phone i'm had to date & i'm had like 20something since i was 13 not all Sony Ericsson i would say i've had every brand bar the IPhone which i'm sorry CarKitter but i personally think its over-hyped but thats just my opinion i know you think differently & that your opinion which is fine...allow me to say for the record the IPhone looks great, sounds great, feels great the only thing is upon release the media & Vodafone made it look like it was the greatest thing ever created hence saying its over-hyped i mean come on stores opening at Midnight...lines outside Mobile shops i know its true but why feed it off to others they never did that with the PS3 & some stores were open Midnight for that & there were lines & it too is like the next big thing...so in my view speaking personally its to over-hyped & one more thing Vodafone sticking what seems to be there top phone on On Account only is another put of i only do prepay...ok now back on Topic...

I can see this going off topic after my little rant about the IPhone haha but i'm ready for it. Just a add on from that last post i did - is there a way to get message tones playing longer (on the W910) without it stuffing up the phone?

Lol you need to fix your full stop button

There is a way using patches, but I don't know if they have ported the message length patch to w910 yet. To find out how to patch w910, google "a2 patching" or something along those lines.
