Often enough, slide phones can appear to be similar to one another in so many ways unless they are distinguished by, say, an angled slide or something of that like. Both the Sony Ericsson W580i, and the Sony Ericsson S500i are, exterior only, very similar models. In fact, it strongly seems as if they are the same mobile phone merely with different covers on the outside. Of course, the 'code' used in the initials of the serial numbers provide a hint as to the nature of both mobile phone types. Overall, the Sony Ericsson W580i has swathes of similarities with the Sony Ericsson S500i, but at the same time it is the very same distinguishing features that set both these mobile phones apart that come to the fore during comparisons. Perhaps it is a small indication of just how distinct even the most similar looking of mobile phones could actually be. Comparing Features of the Sony Ericsson W580i and Sony Ericsson S500i Looking first at the Sony Ericsson W580i, that is essentially a Walkman mobile phone. One of the heaviest expectations placed on Walkman branded mobile phones is the quality of the sound and also the media player, and the Sony Ericsson W580i does not disappoint. Instead, by utilising the Walkman 2.0 music player, it provides a genuine pleasure of a musical experience, complete with 'shake control'. On the other hand, the Sony Ericsson S500i takes a totally different route by exploring the brave new world of configurable themes. Not only does it offer up the luxury of choice, but the Sony Ericsson S500i does so in such a way that refusing would honestly be pretty hard. Combining this already beautiful mobile phone with the easy on the eyes configurable themes, there is no limit to the heights that can be attained as new levels of beauty on mobile phones are sought out. Camera-wise and display wise, both mobile phones are rather similar, however the Sony Ericsson W580i does offer a few extras such as a pedometer that the Sony Ericsson S500i does not have. Although it could probably be viewed as a fairly cosmetic difference, the entire effect that the Sony Ericsson W580i produces can only seem to be matched by the jaw-dropping brilliance of the beauty within the S500i. As a mobile phone, the S500i is one that shows the most promise of being the most attractive, and certainly, most flexibly attractive, mobile phone ever. On the other hand, the Walkman W580i provides excellent music quality combined with a few extras that can make for good fun to fiddle around. In terms of their comparison, there is no clear 'winner', although if one must be picked, it should probably be the S500i for the type of ground-breaking differences that it has implemented in its design. Style is such an important part of the world of mobile phones, and having a mobile phone so dedicated to style is truly remarkable.
