The aesthetic appeal of the Sony Ericsson W705 lies in the fact that it is practical, well built and accommodating but is simply gorgeous because of the screen.

The menus are also easy to navigate around but you absolutely must look at the features a little more closely to fully appreciate the Sony Ericsson W705 in all its glory!
