Today we have another hands-on review, which takes a first look at the Sony Ericsson Satio. The 12.1-megapixel-multimedia phone is sure to please those that love to take photos on their phones.

You may also remember this phone as the “Idou”, this was revealed at the 2009 Mobile World Congress event. You see the hands-on review below, which shows the phone in action.

Is the Sony Ericsson Satio your next phone? It’s released this month (October 2009).

At the same time they are handy to carry wherever you go which is not the same with the regular big cameras. This is the reason the Sony Ericsson C702 phones are equipped with a 3.15 mega pixel camera which is considered to be an efficient ones when it comes to the quality of the snaps that you take.

The cyber shot technology implemented in this mobile phone makes it a good choice for the photographers. This camera is coupled with the auto focus and zoom facility which makes your photographs just the perfect ones. The internal flash is used to take the snaps when there is insufficient light around.

Video recording is equally easy with this phone. The most interesting part is that you get your own blogging site with the phone. So you are free to upload the video clips and photographs on it directly from the phone.

There are other two technologies which make this phone absolutely different from the others available in the stores. Now the geographical factor is added to the photographs you click which means that this phone comes with the geo tagging facility.

Whenever you click a photograph the location and time gets included in it and you are free to send these photographs to your friends as picture messages. Face detection is another novel feature. If there is a face within the frame of the screen the Sony Ericsson C702 will automatically focus on it and you get the perfect clarity that you were looking for. Thanks to our friends at mobile phone blog, for this review.

The brand will announce three new handsets and a range of Bluetooth accessories. As reported yesterday, there will be two new Walkman phones and one phone in the emotional design category. Check out the details.

W890i:

A 3G Walkman phone with accelerometer, it is an upgrade of the W880i. This will have Play Now 4.0 as well as a new version of the Walkman player. There will be a 3.2 megapixel camera onboard.

W380i:

An upgrade of the W300i, it will have a new feature called gesture control. I’m not very sure of what it will do, but it will control the Walkman player by some gestures. It is not a 3G phone.

K660i: The USP of this 3G phone will be its web browsing capabilities. It will allow users to browse the web in the landscape mode and will come with a pointer cursor. To me, it smells like Opera!

The W580i is a slim slider phone with a neat trick; it has a built-in pedometer along with some neat programs to make use of it. The shape is cool and the curve on the bottom is interesting and smart at the same time. However I’m not that crazy when you open it up. There are these lights on the side plus you get these shiny things on the keypad that kind of remind me of a rapper’s teeth.

The W580i is a young people’s (or at least, active people’s) phone. Except the colorful, updated Walkman software, there are 3 applications to be found that have to do with physical exercise. In the front screen, you will find a pedometer and there is also a calories/weight counter.

The W580i comes with 12 Mbytes of built in memory & with a memory slot which allows the user to add a Micro™ M2™ memory card for further storage. The handset weighs 94 grams in total & is 14 mm in depth, 99 mm in height & 47 mm in width. The Sony Ericsson W580i comes complete with a stereo headset so the user will be ready to enjoy their music & comes with everything the user needs to get their music from their PC or laptop onto their phone.

  Sony Ericsson has introduced the V640i, a music phone sold exclusively through Vodafone in selected markets.

Available in two rich colors or shades – Havana Gold and Quick Black – the Sony Ericsson V640i available exclusively with Vodafone provides a true music and entertainment experience. The V640i is designed to appeal to music lovers looking for no-compromise performance. If you prefer to capture the action for yourself, the V640i’s 2.0 megapixel camera is always at hand to shoot still pictures or moving images.

It looks like Vodafone is going to have the SE V640i exclusive in a few markets. Besides its neat metallic body (Havana Gold or Black), the V640i has a few interesting features:

The V640i supports Memory Stick Micros up to 4GB and that allows you to store loads of songs. Besides that, it also supports HSDPA connectivity for better web browsing and RSS feeds to keep you updated with the latest news. It is also pre-loaded with Google Maps and eBay.

Other features such as Bluetooth, 2 megapixel camera and flight mode are included. The V640i will come in two colors, Havana Gold and Quick Black and should be available by the end of this year, however there’s no price confirmed yet.

The big wigs over at Sony Ericsson have flashed us these taster snaps of their latest Walkman phone, but we’ll have to wait a bit longer for retail details on the bony blower.

The W880i music maestro is expected to hit the high street within the first half of this year. Keep it here for bang up-to-date news on Sony’s Ericsson’s newbie.

Sony Ericsson has finally decided to present the Sony Ericsson

W880i, a slim walkman phone, measuring only 9.4 mm. Despite Sony Ericsson’s announcing this phone, there’s little information available and the photos aren’t very revealing either, the only thing that one can confirm being the camera for video calling, therefore 3G capabilities.

In fact, the previously leaked

photos of this phone have been far more revealing. But since there is no significant difference between the phone in these official photos and the phone in the photos presented before, we can only hope that the features will prove to be the same as well.

The brushed metal casing will also be included, which might mean that the phone is also durable. Looking on the bright side of things, this is the first time that Sony Ericsson has provided any information at all about this phone. According to Sony Ericsson, more information regarding the W880i – so far also known as the Ai – will be available after the phone’s launch, which is to occur during the first half of 2007. Which basically means that the only official information released so far regarding this phone is that it will come with all of the music-center features Sony Ericsson Walkman phones usually bring.

Other than that, we can only presume that the phone will include at least a 2 megapixel camera and, since it is a Walkman phone, it will surely come equipped with a memory card slot that will allow extra MP3 storage.

According to Sony Ericsson, “this latest Walkman phone is the next milestone in the development of the Walkman phone story”, and we’ll just have to wait in order to find out more.
