The rumoured Sony Ericsson C510 Cyber-shot phone was officially announced today, a full day ahead of CES in Las Vegas. The C510 is a quad-band GSM / EDGE and 2100 MHz UMTS / HSDPA (tri-band 3G for America) phone, and will be Sony Ericsson’s first phone to feature Smile Shutter from the get-go.
The C510 features a 3.2 megapixel camera with auto focus, Smile Shutter as mentioned before, Face Detection (detect up to 3 faces at a time), PhotoFix, geo-tagging (by cell ID), lens cover, illuminated camera shortcut keys and much more. It doesn’t come with a memory card bundled, which is a bit of a bummer seeing this is a camera phone, but its internal memory of 100 megabytes should hold a fair amount of pictures.
If you feel like printing your pictures, the C510 features HP’s Snapfish service, so you can send print orders right from your phone and have them delivered at home.
- “We have been leaders and innovators in the camera phone segment since the company was started,” said Sven Totté, Head of Imaging Marketing at Sony Ericsson, and continued: “Now we are delighted to unveil the C510 Cyber-shot, our most accessible Cyber-shot phone to date which includes a host of new features normally found on more premium phones. Features like Smile-Shutter, YouTube integration and Snapfish by HP integration make the C510 Cyber-shot a really fun mobile phone to use. This phone will enable us to engage new markets and consumers to our Cyber-shot phone experience.”
The C510 also features a built-in accelerometer, FM radio with RDS, conversation messaging (chat view), and access to YouTube via the YouTube client.
According to Sony Ericsson, the C510 will be Sony Ericsson’s most affordable Cyber-shot phone to date. It looks like they’ve realised that the overall price of the Cyber-shot branded phones is too high, and that they need to lower it a bit to match the sales figures of the Walkman branded handsets.
The handset measures 107 x 47 x 12.5 millimetres and weighs 92 grams. Talk time on the C510 is up to 10 hours on 2G networks and 4 hours on 3G networks, and standby times are up to 400 hours on 2G networks and up to 350 hours on 3G networks.
The C510 will be available in selected markets by February in two colour variants; Future Black and Radiation Silver.

I was thinking the same thing. This would be a great interim phone between now and the C915. Though so would the G705. Hmmmm….

Have anybody information about the modell ‘Yue’, which replace the model K550i?
