Sony Ericsson announces Naite and C901 GreenHeart phones

 greenheart

So, Sony Ericsson announced two mid-end phones today. Both of these belong to the company’s new line of environmentally-friendly phones, dubbed GreenHeart.

The first one is the very familiar C901, but with additional GreenHeartbranding this time. So what does this mean. Well, for one, the phone will ship withlimited packaging due to the lack of a user manual, which is entirely digital and loaded onto the phone’s memory. Also, the C901 is made out of 50% recycled plastics and will be covered with a special waterborne paintthat reduces exposure to Volatile Organic Compounds. An improved light sensor is also incorporated, in order to reduce power consumption. The phone also comes preloaded with a WalkMate app, that tells you the steps you’ve made and  the amount of CO2 emissions you’ve prevented by not driving a car instead. Lastly, the phone will also come with a MH300 GreenHeart headset, made out of 100% recycled plastics.

Otherwise, this is still the same old C901, featuring a 2.2″ screen, a 5 megapixel camera with xenon flash and video light, autofocus, an active lens cover and software technologies, such as face and smile detection, BestPic, Photo fix, red-eye reduction, Geo-tagging Smart Contrast and other. We’ve also got GPS, quad-band GPRS?EDGE and dual-band UMTS/HSUPA here.

Now, Naite, which is Sony Ericsson’s 4th nontraditionally-named phone is lower-end phone. In addition to the eco-friendly technologies found in the C901, Naite will also have a low-power charger - one of the first of its kind. Besides that, it has a 2.2″ screen and a 2 megapixel camera, without flash or autofocus. FM radio is there as well. What’s great is that it has quad-band GPRS/EDGE support, plus HSDPA. It should come in two colour varieties - Vapour Silver and Ginger Red.

Entertainment Unlimited won’t annihilate Walkman and Cyber-shot

idou-killing-spree1

The Walkman and Cyber-shot brands are here to stay, despite the fact that the newly-introduced Entertainment Unlimited brand will supersede the high-end portions of the former two. A Sony Ericsson spokeswoman stated, that the two popular brands will continue to grace the prepay phones. In the UK, at least. Come to think of it, though, it would be complete idiocy to scrap these brands. They’re one of the few things that are driving consumers towards Sony Ericsson phones nowadays.

As you guys can probably remember, the Idou, announced in February, is the first of a new range of handsets - namely the aforementioned Entertainment Unlimited one.

C510 petite photo comparison

c510-comparison

If you follow the source link you’ll find a pretty nifty little photo comparison between the recently released C510, the Nokia 6600 slide and the Samsung L878. The C510 fares surprisingly well. It arguably outperforms the other two handsets, actually. The close-ups at least look quite better than the other phones’, in my opinion. Who’d figure?

On a side note, you can expect our review of the C510 soon! :D
