It has a swivel form factor, which makes the W900 larger than many other phones when folded open.

It also includes Bluetooth, a 2-megapixel digital camera with auto-focus and the ability to take QVGA video at 30 frame/s supplemented by a second VGA camera used for video calling and self-portraits and most advertised of all, its ability to play MP3 audio files in Walkman mode for up to 30 hours and its ability to play long length MPEG-4 videos.

It also has an internal NVIDIA GoForce 4800 graphics processor and was bundled with the HPM-80 headset.

The first to feature a graphics chip, it also had above average video and camera capabilities.

The phone was released to Vodafone exclusively for a large part of the year in its white colored variation.
