A review of the Sony Ericsson W850i slider handset has been posted over at DevHardware.com. 'The Sony Ericsson W850i is available in two colors: Precious Black and Golden White. You could see the images of both on the first page of this review. The particular phone that I am reviewing now is the latter—Golden White—edition. That’s why the sales package is also distinctively white, sporting the Sony Ericsson emblem. The first impressions of the phone’s quality can be felt right as you take it in your hands. The main danger of slider phones is that the “sliding mechanism” loosens sooner or later and may even bring the entire phone close to its death. With the W850i, things are different. You can feel that its design is robust, solid, and heavy-duty. Despite this being Sony Ericsson’s first attempt at creating a slider, it also feels quite responsive.'
