Sony Ericsson W890i Upgraded camera

Further W890i enhancements include the upgrade from a two-megapixel camera (with the W880i) to a 3.2-megapixel snapper. This is only the second time Sony Ericsson has included a camera of this scope in any of its Walkman range, the only other being the slightly disappointing W960i. Taking into account the W890i's slim build, this is no mean feat and we were pleased by the results. The large screen helps, but the camera is also fitted with an array of features that will help you capture some cracking pics. Failing that, you can always rely on the handset's PhotoFix function. With the option of correcting your pics either manually or automatically, PhotoFix sharpens up your pictures by adjusting the light, white balance or colour of the original picture. See the PhotoFix pics on this page to see just how much even our amateur photoshop-style handiwork improved the photos.

The Sony Ericsson W890i also comes with a capable video camera. Capable of recording video in QVGA at 30 frames per second (also known as DVD quality), the W890i is a competent mobile camcorder, even though it doesn't have quite the same abilities of the Cyber-shot range.
