Loading ...First Bravia Phone for AU KDDI
Japanese network AU KDDI have just announced their winter range of handsets and Sony Ericsson have contributed a few models to that range (as an aside I wish European networks had ‘winter’ and ’summer’ ranges, there is something sort of cool about that, but I digress). As you can see from the previous post they released a handset apparently aimed at older customers, but they also announced AU’s first Bravia handset, the U1.
Bravia handsets have appeared in Japan before of course, on NTT DoCoMo, but this is a first for AU. The handset packs in a 3″ WVGA screen based on Sony’s Bravia technology and Sony Blu-ray forwarding technology. Basically what that means is that the handset can be hooked up to a Blue-ray player. Memory expansion is through microSD cards with capacities of up to 16 GB supported. There’s all the other usual goodies too e.g. 5.14 MP camera, Bluetooth, WiFi GPS, Felica, 1Seg TV, etc. Check out the pictures below!
P.S. If you’re wondering why there is a shot of a woman in a bath it’s because the U1 is waterproof!

exactly why you would want plug your phone into a blu-ray player? i have no idea (( if you could afford an expensive blu-ray player surely you can afford a tv??) unless you were planning to watch blu-ray movies in the bath that would be understandable) other than that i really love the large screen and the media menu looks really nice too
