‘The W960 is really the best SE phone I’ve ever used. The UIQ interface here is much enhanced and I had no difficulty in navigating through the various menus. And as I pointed out before, the flush touchscreen is a big plus over previous phones as it enables you to use your finger more often. There are still a few places which necessitate the use of the stylus but it is a big step up from previous UIQ 3 smartphones. The lack of EDGE or HSDPA is what that restrains the W960 on the connectivity front. The Call quality is excellent and the music part is of course brilliant.
All these features in a thin 16mm form factor is what that makes the W960 a phone to crave for!’
