Sony-Ericsson at CTIA 2008: oldies but goodies
Added on 2008-04-02 21:33:00

Since there's not a lot of new stuff going down at CTIA 2008 this year we thought we'd run out and grab some photos of phones that have been announced but we haven't got a chance to play with hands on yet. In the Sony-Ericsson booth we grabbled the C902 cybershot candybar with a five megapixel camera. Next up is the W980, a flip that reproduces Sony-Ericsson's excellent Walkman software on the exterior of the phone. Last, but not least, is the K850, a 3.2 megapixel Cybershot phone that's been rumored to be coming to AT&T forever. We have to admit that we're getting a little impatient to get some of these devices to U.S. shores. We haven't had a chance to do a full review on many Sony-Ericsson phones but those we have, or, one, the W580i (review), have impressed us. Photos after the jump.

Sony Ericsson z555 hits FCC
Added on 2008-03-10 09:12:00
by Mark Brezinski

The z555, which we initially covered way back at CES, has just hit the FCC for approval. Assuming not much has changed since we last saw it, the z555 is a basic Sony Ericsson handset with a very pretty case (at least it was at the show; the picture at right is more of a mug shot than a vanity photo).

The front of the phone features a really cool OLED display that is embedded in the case. Looking at the front, if the OLEDs aren't lit up, you'd never guess they were there. Also, the z555 has an accelerometer so it can pull the typical Sony Ericsson tricks, such as shaking the phone to mute a call, or playing the role of a pedometer.

The rest of Sony Ericsson's phones
Added on 2007-06-14 14:41:00

We've been waiting, and waiting, and waiting for some extra details on Sony Ericsson's new phone lineup, and finally they're official. Of course, there's the K850 (pictured, third from left) we wrote about earlier, but there's also some information on the two new Walkman phones to the party, the W910 and W960.

The W960 rocks a full 8GB of onboard storage (like some other music-phone we keep hearing about,) a 3.2 megapixel camera and a touchscreen. The W910 (pictured, first from left) doesn't have any crazy onboard storage, but does have a two megapixel cam, requisite A2DP support and will come in both black and red colors. 

All three phones feature the aforementioned Gracenote technology for song identification, ala Verizon's VCast implementation for which you might be seeing ads.   Sony Ericsson also announced two phones that won't be crawling onto US shores, the K530 (fourth from left,) a less interesting 3G candybar phone, and the uber low-end Z250 flip phone (pictured second from left.)  All of the phones and watches from Sony Ericsson will be released toward the end of 2007.
