Linda has been a known codename for quite some time now, but until now we really haven’t had any phones to match with the codename. Now, a bunch of photos of the upcoming W595 - W580 successor - leaked on Journaldugeek.
The Sony Ericsson G700 is Sony Ericsson’s cheapest smart phone to date, and probably also the last Sony Ericsson phone to be making use of the UIQ user interface. It’s not necessarily marketed as being a smart phone, but rather being a smart feature phone.
Sony Ericsson recently selected Swedish mobile games developer and publisher GlobalFun as one of its two official content acquisition partner for the upcoming PlayNow Arena and Fun & Downloads services.
The T610 was one of Sony Ericsson’s first smash hits, and many will argue that this single phone model marked a turning point for the company. Five years after its release, it looks like Sony Ericsson is about ready with a remake of this ever-popular handset.
The G900 and its sibling, G700, represent a new kind of Sony Ericsson smart phone products, that don’t look or feel like a smart phone, yet perform and deliver as one would expect a smart phone to do. These G’s are targeted at the normal everyday consumer, who wants a little extra something from his phone, while still keeping the price low.

Sony Ericsson has just recently filed a patent on a haptic touch screen gaming device. The patent goes by the name “Orientation based multiple mode mechanically vibrated touchscreen display”, and among a set of nice designs, it shows a very PSP-like concept. But, not only does it look like a PSP device, the patent also states that the PSP mode is “set out to mimic the look and feel of the popular Sony.TM. Playstation Portable (PSP.TM.) gaming device”, as well as about 5 other mentionings of the PSP brand. Interesting!! Continue reading “PSP Gaming Device Patent Filed By Sony Ericsson”

A Sony Ericsson patent reveals how the company intends to use projectors inside cellphones. According to the patent, when the projector beams the desired image on to a surface, the on-board camera will take an image of the projected image to analyse if any adjustments are to be made. If required, the projector application will change the intensity of the projector to project the ideal image. Now, if the patent could have revealed when we’ll see a phone with an inbuilt projector…

Sony Ericsson today patented a cellphone cover that renders the phone resistant to dust, water and shock arising when the phone is dropped. The cover will be made of two different materials – soft and rigid – to make the cover sturdy and at the same time enabling the user to use the cellphone without taking it out. Nothing earth shattering, we’d say, but newsworthy nevertheless.
(Note from Michell; C702, anyone??)

Sony Ericsson has just recently filed a patent for a new phone design. This employs a clamshell phone and a detachable display on it. Yep, you read correct - detachable!
The idea is to have a phone, where you can have the display whichever way you’d like it - that way you can actually have the large (internal) display on the outside of the phone. This could make it a lot easier to watch videos on your phone - especially if dedicated multimedia keys were employed on the sides.
The other concept to be found in the patent is a lot more innovative. This one makes you capable of actually removing the display from the rest of the phone, and thereby only carry around a display. However, this would not just be any display to carry around, because then there wouldn’t be any fun in doing so (if it didn’t work, that is). I’m thinking that the display could also double as a music player or alike. To be honest, I believe I have seen what could be one of these (upcoming) phones - very much like W350 with round music keys on the front, but also a nice colour display on the front. Looked exactly like a music player, and was also a clamshell phone.
It seems this concept could be used in lots of different ways - all we have to do is wait.

Rumour has it that Sony Ericsson is planning a new series of ultra high-end multimedia mobile phones / smart phones. This series is to be called “Xperia”, and will without doubt be a direct hit back at some of the other manufacturers’ high-end smart phones.
Well, actually it’s not a rumour, as Sony Ericsson has indeed actually filed the patent for this XPERIA brand (filed on the 10th of January 2008).
This is definitely exciting and I have of course already contacted Sony Ericsson about this (I want to know!), but I’m not sure I’ll get a reply regarding this 
You’ll find the patent filing right here.
