Over at se-community.com, I have published a set of livepics of the latest announced SE phones and the MS410 loudspeaker. You can find the pictures here:
Over at fony.sk, a huge gallery of Sony Ericsson’s upcoming Idou was published. The gallery covers all aspects of the phone, and even includes a few 16:9 camera samples (4000 x 2250 pixels) - which reveal the real code name of the phone. The EXIF information lists the camera model as Kokoro, which is hardly a surprise. The samples pictures aren’t any good at fony, because they’re shot in low light. However, we’ve seen a few other shots with the Idou, and it’s got an amazing camera. We’re really looking forward to getting our hands on one! Oh, and just for the record - the full resolution pictures come out in 4000 x 3000 pixels.
Don’t you just love official ‘oops’ leaks? I most certainly do, and today just happens to be a day housing one of these ‘oops’ leaks.
The Chinese mobile and gadgets website IT168 recently published a series of photos from an official Sony Ericsson press conference, and on a few of the photos appeared some unannounced phones - the M610, T707 and P3.
The T707 is the most interesting of the bunch, as it’ll get announced shortly. Its codename is Elle, and it’ll come in a variety of colour variants. We know of five variants, but there may be more. From the photo we can say that the phone will be a quad-band GSM / dual-band UMTS/HSPA (up to 7.2 Mbps) phone, and it measures 93 x 50 x 14 millimetres. It’ll weigh 98 grams. It will feature a 2.2-inch TFT display. It seems to come with a 1 GB Memory Stick Micro card, and it’ll be based on the OSE operating system by Enea, just like most of Sony Ericsson’s other feature phones. Its hardware platform seems to be the Ericsson EMP U330.
And then out of the blue comes a photo of the 2007 portfolio with mentionings of the M610 and P3. The picture of the Walkman phone is apparently P3 (not true - and a fake picture, too). Not only is it weird that they included these two phones in the presentation, but it is more weird that they even got the picture of the P3 wrong. Shame on you, Sony Ericsson, for mentioning cancelled phones…
Here’s our 17-minute video preview of the Sony Ericsson W995, which was announced last Sunday. The video includes parts about the design, comparisons with other devices, including the C901 and C903, and of course a fairly thorough walk-through of the user interface and some of the features. Please keep in mind that the phones shown in the video are very early prototypes running very early software. The icons are messed up at the moment, the Walkman player seems to be going through some kind of restructuring, and several features are missing.
The video was a pretty quick job. Didn’t have much time to edit it (not that it would have been much better, but still…), so you’ll have to live with me dropping the phones, etc., now and then.
You might also want to check out our large gallery of the W995, which was posted right here, in case you haven’t done so already.
We’ve got our hands on not one, not two, but three prototype units of the new Sony Ericsson W995. Now, I haven’t got much time on my hands at the moment, so I’ll just post a series of very quick - and I do mean very quick - pictures of the phones. It’s a very, very, very nice handset and definitely something I won’t be without!
You can of course find out more about the W995, that was announced just a few days ago, right over here!
We’ll post a preview of the W995, along with the C901 and C903, over the next few days. Once the retail units hit the shelves, we’re also going to give away three Sony Ericsson W995 retail units, along with a lot of other devices, so stay tuned
