Runs pretty smooth, eh? Thanks, review guy!

T715 has been announced, big deal

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

Well, big surprise – Sony Ericsson announced yet another crappy handset today, called the T715. And what exactly is the T715? Well, one could call it many things – G705, W705, W715, W595 or W595s. That’s all there is to say, really.

Here’s the press release, if you interested in reading old news. Oh, and you’ll have to go there for pictures as well. I didn’t bother adding them – I’m sure you all know how the aforementioned handsets look. Play around in Paint a bit, and you’ll have the T715. At least, that’s what I think the designer did.

BUT, since we’re such nice fellows, we’ve included a photo and the demo video, which has a rather nice track this time around (and would have suited a Walkman phone better, frankly). Here they are:

W995 Final Impressions

The W995- king of the Walkmans. It was announced a few months ago and released just recently. As you may have noticed, we’ve already done a review of the handset. Thing is, it was written based on a prototype of the W995 and that’s why we’ve decided to write a “final impressions” piece after having used a retail version of the phone. We’re quite happy, actually and here’s why… (more…)

Entertainment Unlimited trio caught on video… again

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

Yes, we are quite aware that you can’t get enough of these, so I’ll cut the chit-chat and leave you to watching the said videos.

New Sony Ericsson luminous concept dress modeled by Maria Sharapova

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

concept-dress-sharapova

Sony Ericsson’s own ambassador – Wimbledon champion Maria Sharapova – wore a rather striking dress at an event in London on the 17th June. What’s so unique about it is that it uses Bluetooth to connect to your phone and lights up when you’ve got an incoming call. That way you know when someone’s calling you even when you can’t hear your phone (say, in a noisy club). This “light up” effect is described to originate from “small, white translucent scale embellishments that run down one side of the dress from the shoulder to the hip”.

The concept dress was designed by George Davies, a London College of Fashion student. The prototype garment is still far from being a commercial product, so you gals should probably stop wondering how on earth you’d have to wash this thing.

That’s it, folks. The Satio, the Aino and the Yari will ship on 28th September… this year! Earlier than you thought, no? No? Oh, well.

Hilarious new W995 video is actually informative

Saturday, June 13th, 2009

Quite frankly, I’ve never expected to see such a funny video about a commercial product on YouTube. Much less from Sony Ericsson (and even less from the other phone manufacturers, actually).

 

One of the few YouTube videos that have made me chuckle, really.

C510 Energetic Red official

Friday, June 12th, 2009

c510-energetic-red

Remember that third mysterious colour we mentioned in our review of the C510? Well, we did say it would be white and red. So, it’s not such a big deal, actually. And yes, it is now official. Doesn’t this colour combination remind you of Mirror’s Edge, somehow?

Anyway, just to freshen your memory, the C510 is a mid-range cyber-shot cameraphone with a 3.2 megapixel camera, Photo flash, face and smile detection, a cool lens cover, an accelerometer and other stuff. For a complete list visit Sony Ericsson’s web page.

The X2 Shows Up In White

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 white

Sony Ericsson’s next Windows Mobile flagship – the (supposedly named) X2 has been photographed yet again. This time the leaked photo shows a white version of the phone and a much better view of the QWERTY keypad – we think.

So, the next XPERIA is rumoured to boast an 8 megapixel camera, a large 3.2″ (3.5″?) touchscreen amongst many other niceties, including its predecessor’s features. The new menu looks like to be the homescreen of Windows Mobile 6.5 in stead of the 6.1 version in the X1. We’ll just have to wait and see whether all of this is true. Ya’ hear that, SE?
