The Sony Ericsson W750i is not a substitute for professional kit to help with your fitness training, and if you want to do anything other than running or jogging it is out of the question. This aside it is a well-designed phone with lots of plus points, including a strong range of software and good music playback.

The W710i Walkman phone is built for an active lifestyle. Keep the beat, keep in touch, stay on the go - the W710i is the perfect companion to keep you moving in style.

Stay on top - the W710i comes with applications that help you record your performance. On the running track, you can measure speed and distance. And when you’re walking, have your all-day step counter on to measure your movement. There’s even a calorie counter in your phone.

Sony Ericsson’s W710i is the second phone we’ve seen recently that offers some special features for sporty types — the first being Nokia’s 5500 Sport.

After giving the W710i a solid workout we think the seriously sporty would be better off with something more specifically attuned to performance measurement. Like the Nokia 5500 Sport, this handset lacks the accuracy of a GPS antenna-based system when it comes to measuring distance travelled, and what it offers is only really suitable for runners. But at least this time round you can calibrate the built-in pedometer to your own stride length.

Design
The Sony Ericsson W710i is a clamshell phone and when closed it’s nice and neat in the hand and pocket. It’s not as thin as some phones we’ve seen recently — indeed, its 25mm depth could be referred to as somewhat on the thick side.

There are a couple of side buttons — two on the left for volume and camera control (the volume rocker can be used for voice dialling if held down, too) and one on the right edge that locks all the outer buttons. There are also two controls on the left and two on the right of the front screen.

Features
The Sony Ericsson W710i is a quad-band handset with GPRS. Infrared and Bluetooth are built in, and there’s 10MB of internal memory, which you can add to with Memory Stick Micro cards. You get a 512MB card with the phone to get you started — the slot is visible on the left side of the phone, but you have to remove the battery cover to get to it.
