Sony Ericsson today announced the two generation web phones, G502 & Z780, as expected. We pretty much already revealed the G502 for Sony Ericsson yesterday, so you can check it out right here and with the first-ever live picture of it here.

The other phone to be announced was the Z780. A clamshell phone similar to the Z770, with similar specifications and design. It features a 2.2 inch TFT display of QVGA resolution, a 2 mega pixel camera with fixed focus, a built-in GPS as well as tri-band HSDPA network support for enhanced Internet browsing speeds. Full press release here.

Sony Ericsson will be announcing the G502, previously known by the codename Emelie, on Wednesday 23rd April - well, that doesn’t keep us from revealing it already! G502 is a fancy-looking candy bar phone in the style of K530, but with a clean black design, that feels a bit inspired by the land of Japan.

The front of this black jewel plays host to a 2 inch large TFT display of QVGA resolution, capable of showing upto 262.144 colours.

The G502 is a HSDPA-enabled phone targeted at the business & youth segment with support Exchange Activesync and built-in Google Maps for Mobile. The phone is supposedly ready for Web 2.0 with the built-in Access NetFront web browser, and it shall be easy to set up e-mail accounts on it by using the e-mail wizard. RSS feeds can be displayed on the standby screen, as on other A2-based feature phones.

It will feature a 2 mega pixel fixed focus camera on the back with 4x digital zoom and video recording possibilites. Apart from that, G502 features Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR as well as USB 2.0 support.

Its dimensions will be 109 x 46 x 13.5 millimetres, and it’ll weigh in at 83.5 grams. It has 32 MB internal memory, and it can be expanded by Memory Stick Micro cards.

G502, which is a tri-band GSM phone with EDGE support, will hit selected markets in Q2 this year, and will be available in two colour trimmings; Brilliant Hazel & Champagne Black.

We’ve got a question for you, Sony Ericsson. Why not make a change, and put UIQ on this phone instead of the A2 software platform?

Other than that, well, I guess you saw this first on USEB

PS. Pressing the thumbnail, will give you a larger view!

It seems like BeiBei is going to be announced fairly soon - at least if you were to judge on the amounts of recent leaks. This time, the leaks show a brown/black version of this very thin smart phone running UIQ 3.3. I do not think it’ll be a Walkman phone, but let’s see about that.

Sony Ericsson today launched a few extra colour variants of the K660, and a new smashing red colour variant for the W580. The new K660 colours are called Cyan on Black & Silver on Black, while the red W580 colour variant will be called Velvet Red. In my opinion the red colour on the W580 makes it look extremely hot!

WM Experts is an interesting site, and they sure do know about the stuff they write about. A short while ago, they published a preview of the XPERIA X1, and it looks like they are extremely impressed;

Overall this might be the best hardware I’ve ever seen on a Windows Mobile device. [...] The screen. Good god, the screen is really beautiful. Flush, bright, and very high resolution. [...] So yes, the hardware delivers. [...] They are [the specifications], in short, nothing less than top of the line.

That sounds bloody excellent, don’t you think? Do me and yourself a favour and check out the highly positive preview of the X1 over at WM Experts.
