Review: Sony Ericsson W595

Do you remember the good old days when mobile phones just worked? We're talking about 2006. In those days, Sony Ericsson made phones that did what it said on the tin. Then in 2007 most of the phones they made didn't work. Some, like the W580i, just fell to pieces when you opened the box. Others, like the W910i were absolutely brilliant until you switched them on. Then they switched themselves off again and had to go back to the shop. There are signs that Sony Ericsson have turned the corner in 2008, but they still have a long way to go before their reputation is restored, so we're going to be suspicious of any new phones they produce until they've proved themselves to be reliable.
