It has been a week since I got my latest toy; the Sony Ericsson W890i for a mere SGD $38. I have been eyeing this phone for quite some time, even before it was released in Singapore.

You must be wondering how I got it at such a low price. I traded in my K800i ($100) and I had a discount voucher of $100 from Starhub due to our punctuality in settling our bills. On top of that, the phone was available at a cut price of SGD $238 instead of SGD $288 for NS men and students. So that leaves another $50 cut and there you have it. In a quick run through, it is an ultra slim walkman mobile measuring at 0.4 inches (1.016cm) in thickness with a 3.2 mega pixels camera.

I figured I would be doing the W890i injustice by not showcasing some photos as an introduction. Snapped very quickly with my T100 and pardon me for the absolutely poor lighting in my room.
