New Sony Ericsson luminous concept dress modeled by Maria Sharapova

concept-dress-sharapova

Sony Ericsson’s own ambassador - Wimbledon champion Maria Sharapova - wore a rather striking dress at an event in London on the 17th June. What’s so unique about it is that it uses Bluetooth to connect to your phone and lights up when you’ve got an incoming call. That way you know when someone’s calling you even when you can’t hear your phone (say, in a noisy club). This “light up” effect is described to originate from “small, white translucent scale embellishments that run down one side of the dress from the shoulder to the hip”.

The concept dress was designed by George Davies, a London College of Fashion student. The prototype garment is still far from being a commercial product, so you gals should probably stop wondering how on earth you’d have to wash this thing.

The T707 has been announced

… hardly anything interesting though. It’s a pretty standard clamshell phone with a female design. The T707 was designed alongside with Sony Ericsson’s brand ambassador, Maria Sharapova (go figure). The special features, so to speak, of this phone are the ‘eye-catching light effects’, changing themes, and gesture control.

Other than that, it’s a pretty standard A2 feature phone. It features a 3.2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, PlayNow, YouTube, Media, Google Maps, geo-tagging, a 2.2-inch TFT display, quad-band GSM/EDGE and single-band UMTS/HSDPA (tri-band for the T707a).

It will be available in three colours - Mysterious Black, Spring Rose and Lucid Blue (what happened to the rest??). It weighs 95 grams and measures 93 x 50 x 14.1 millimetres. The battery is good for 400 hours of standby life or up to 10 hours of talk time.
