Ling's mobile review: The Mix Walkman from Sony Ericsson is a compact music phone with a 3 inch touchscreen and Walkman player with a range of music features. If you love singing along to your favourite songs Karaoke mode turns down the vocal track so you become the star and the Zappin feature plays the chorus of each song as you scroll through your music collection.
The handset comes with exchangeable colour bands so you can change the look of the phone and the 4 corners UI allows you to easily browse the handset menu. There is no 3G but you can still enjoy fast web browsing via Wi-Fi and a full set of message options is included along with a document viewer for handling email attachments.
The Mix Walkman also includes a 3 megapixel camera, expandable memory up to 32GB and Bluetooth connectivity whilst social network integration ensures you keep up with friends on Facebook and Twitter when away from your PC. Being made of plastic, this phone is about as carbon neutral as a 4x4. - Ling

No, "free gifts" are never free! You only get what you pay for. By far, you are better off getting the best deal on the phone and tariff you want and ignoring "free" gift offers! Often substitute gifts are sent. That's useless. - Ling
