Thanks to m-one over at SE-World we did not need to post the internal demo tour of Paris, which is set to be announced on the 17th of next month, so roughly in about 3 weeks. Here’s the video for ya’ (high quality, oh yeah)!
By the way… This is nothing to get too excited about. This is very early stuff, and we’re sure lots of stuff has happened since this video was created.
As promised here’s a camera sample from the G702 also known as Beibei. As said earlier on, this phone packs the best fixed focus camera I’ve seen in any camera phone, and on the software side of things, Sony Ericsson has really upped its game. Even though this is a really good sample considering it’s a prototype, it can actually do better than this - at least it does do better in a few other samples I’ve got, although these can’t be shared (obvious reasons). We’ve removed pretty much all the EXIF data not to reveal too much, once again, our reasons are quite obvious. Press the thumbnail for full view.
Our good friends over at Mobile Review have published a preview of the much talked about Paris. There are plenty of screenshots and M-R promises that new spy pictures will be leaked soon. An interesting tidbit to come out of the preview is that Paris will retail for 400 euros. Head over to M-R to read the preview.
In closed a press release, Sony Ericsson now announces that it’ll be starting shipping of the C702 Cyber-shot phone tomorrow. We expect the C902, G700 and G900 will follow the C702 on its way across Europe.
Just to sum it up, the C702 offers a 3.2 mega pixel camera with auto focus, a built-in GPS with Google Maps and WayFinder as well as a crisp TFT display at QVGA resolution. C702 is also Sony Ericsson’s first dust and splash resistant phone, making it ideal to photograph in even the most troubling surroundings.
I’m not sure if we’ll post an in-depth going review of the C702, but I do think we’ll at least test out the statement of it being dust and splash resistant.
