Loading ...‘Idou’ is Sony Ericsson’s upcoming 12.1-megapixel phone
Along with the launching of Entertainment Unlimited, Sony Ericsson showcased an upcoming mobile phone by the concept ‘Idou’, which is going to give us a glimpse of what lies ahead for us, and what Sony Ericsson is currently working on. The ‘Idou’ is one of a number of projects that will be launched this year under the umbrella of Entertainment Unlimited.
The ‘Idou’ is a cameraphone with special focus on media. It will feature a 12.1-megapixel camera with auto focus and an array of advanced camera touch features and a xenon flash. I’m guessing the sensor in this phone will the Sony’s new 1/2.5-inch 12.25 megapixel sensor for mobile phones. That would be awesome! The Media menu will now be fully optimized for the 3.5-inch 16:9 widescreen touch screen, and will enable you to tap directly into your favourite movies, TV-series, video clips and tracks.
The phone will be based on what will become the Symbian Foundation operating system, which means that thousands of applications will be available online. PlayNow will be pre-installed, and will allow you to personalize the phone.
- “Entertainment Unlimited is at the core of Sony Ericsson’s philosophy, building on the strength of our great entertainment assets such as Walkman and Cyber-shot phones and our unique service and applications integration. Many of the strategic initiatives we’ve announced in the past year have laid the internal framework to launch this new consumer proposition to the market and Sony Ericsson is now ready to drive the next wave of market development with Entertainment Unlimited”, said Hideki Komiyama, President at Sony Ericsson, in a press release.
The ‘Idou’ will be available during the second half of 2009 - naturally marketed by a different product name.

This could be the start of the new era for sonyericsson.
“Everything that goes down, use to come up”
At least 5x optic zoom, thank u!
waiting for a n97 compotitor from sonyericsson…this is cool
It’s quite cool. But when it will be released, LG and Samsung will also offer such phones. Then this phone isn’t something special - and it’s imo overpriced.
I’m worrying about the price o_O
3.5mm headphone jack PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE
