This thread might help you decide : which is better ???
In terms of the camera, C901 has more details but C905 has warmer colours : C905 vs C901
According to GSM Arena the Yari has the best sound out of the walkman range so the music will be much better than on the C901.
Yari has a single LED flash and C901 has a xenon flash with triple LED video light.
Another phone you might want to consider is the Elm, it is quite similar to the C901 and considered to be an improved version but it's not straightforward, each phone has its highlights and if look at what they are you can match them with what you want the phone to do and make the right choice for you.

If you have Elm as one of the choices, you should include Hazel too... But I don't know if your a fan of slider phones though... As a SE user, Hazel is one of the most beautiful phones around(see passionate rouge), design wise, and it is very affordable. I bought it for 11.6K PHP. The slider is not the common "belt", but a magnetic one, so (IMO) worrying about the slider breaking down in time is not a problem anymore. I accidentally dropped my Hazel today and it still feels as solid as ever. BTW, its just 2 days old. lol. The only knack for Hazel is the the camera in low light situations, the flash is sooooooooooo bad! I hope my 2cents worth of advice helped you.

Tough decisions, that's half the fun of getting a new phone
I own the C901 and the Elm so I can answer any questions you have about them,
This might be useful to you: Review of Sony Ericsson Elm J10 GSM/UMTS Phone
Some people have said reviews by mobile-review are biased, there's no way to tell if it is or not but it's still worth checking out, it has some comparison to the Hazel.
I made a thread a couple of months ago where all C901 users gave a quick review of the phone, I tried to make it in-depth and not biased in any way C901 User Reviews

The c901 has a better camera overall, bear in mind that the Elm can only take good pictures in nice sunny conditions where there's good light. If you take a picture in low light there will be coloured lines and lots of noise in your photos, the flash doesn't compare to the xenon on the c901 but that's expected. Its not a good choice if you take a lot of photos indoors, the colours come out looking very dull. However, the Elm takes very good pictures in sunny conditions, i looked at side by side crops and it produced more detail on its photos than the c901, this is because it puts a lot of sharpening on during processing the photo
The elm has better build quality, more metal and rubber used instead of cheap plastic that c901 is made from.
However the c901 has a better display than the elm, they are both roughly the same size.
The elm has wifi and agps which the c901 doesn't have, wifi is very useful so its a shame c901 doesn't have it.
The elm is much lighter than the c901 and it feels better in the hand due to its better build quality. But due to the proportions of the phone it can be hard to text with it in one hand. The c901 is more durable than the elm, it has survived a lot of hard falls.
As a general function phone i would recommend the elm more than the c901, but remember its not better in all aspects.
I've never used the c905 or the hazel so i can't give advice about them
Btw, it isn't my dad's phone, i bought it from a member of this site

Hello, Hazel user here, Elm and Hazel are nearly identical phones they both share the same camera module and the same features except for the front videocall camera and larger and nicer display of Hazel.

Hazel is a bit bulkier than Elm, and Elm has a better LED flash than Hazel. (Hazel has yellowish LED flash ). Elm is candybar type and Hazel is slider type. Both takes excellent pictures at daylight and VGA video recording at 30fps and both takes bad photos at lowlight.

Here's the review at GSMarena about Hazel. The only thing they overlooked was the bad LED flash, low quality lowlight photography and you can use youtube even on wifi connection (they said you cannot ). But other than that everything's good and the mobile is great
