“If you’re a newcomer to the smartphone game the W8 is a good place to start. It will be a good companion and one that can balance work and pleasure. It's a Walkman after all - and a droid. Some users will be delighted to hear it's a choice they don't have to make any more.”

“To wrap things up, we liked the Sony Ericsson Xperia W8 Walkman for being a simple to use entry-level smartphone and for coming with a pair of nice earphones out of the box. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be much backing up its Walkman brand, let alone bring it back to life. The Xperia W8 is an easy way of joining the Android team, but the aging Android 2.1 Eclair version that it comes with will simply not give you the full potential of the platform. We would only recommend getting one if you are a music lover who needs an affordable smartphone that can double as an audio player.”

It may depend on the app you are using. While apps are mostly installed in phone memory, you can always check the app if it is movable to SD card.
