I've added the Ericsson models R310s and R290, with several justifications even though they're not SonyEricsson branded. Thought I'd mention those reasons here, to hopefully prevent the models from being deleted: first, they're still supported on the SonyEricsson site, but more importantly, they survived into the SonyEricsson era because there was no new version of them. They're fairly important phones too; the R310s being the ruggedised ("waterproof") one, and the R290 being the Globalstar satellite phone (as well as having GSM capability.) – Kieran T ^{(talk | contribs)} 12:09, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merging of the articles has been decided via a AfD, so should the template be deleted after merging is complete? ηoian ‡orever ηew ‡rontiers 06:39, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

should be listed under "U", as the Aino is the U10i Mathmo ^Talk 08:48, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The name of the template is incorrect as I came to this template from an Ericsson phone that predates the Sony-Ericsson deal, and I've learned from renaming Nokia Mobile Phones to Nokia and Microsoft Mobile phones that it gets reverted back to the original (as moderators kept naming it back to solely "Nokia"), so I suggest to splitting the Ericsson devices that predate the Sony joint venture to not cause confusion as Sony had no involvement in the development of the Ericsson R380 or even most phones from that generation. --86.81.201.94 (talk) 22:55, 28 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I did a rename of the navbox title, though there should be a template that lists only Ericsson-branded devices. -Mardus /talk 05:29, 5 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

W950i and W960 marked as "Feature phones" but they are not. Also for Aspen and M600. Please move it below. Ford153focus (talk) 12:46, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

W-series and G-series should be split in 2 distinct categories the same way as U-series. Everything running Symbian (G700/ G900/ M600/ W950/ W960) or Windows Mobile (M1i) is a smartphone, not a feature phone.

The proposed change is from:

This is not an opinion. This is a fact. Wikipedia accepted that Sony Ericsson W950 is a smartphone with consensus since very first article version: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sony_Ericsson_W950&oldid=39552861 (Sony Ericsson W950 is a Symbian based smartphone). Nobody ever denied in the last 14 years since that page was created. That text is still present in the current version: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sony_Ericsson_W950&oldid=929007208 .

Another source: https://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_w950-review-111.php : (The Sony Ericsson W950 is an exciting new addition to the Walkman series of Sony Ericsson. It is a smartphone based on the Symbian 9.1 UIQ 3.0)

Same for Sony Ericsson M600: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sony_Ericsson_M600&oldid=38449613 (The Sony Ericsson M600 is a Symbian based smartphone ); https://www.cnet.com/reviews/sony-ericsson-m600i-review/ ( Sony Ericsson's M600i is a unique-looking Symbian-based smartphone)
