Concept Cellphone: Konan from Sony Ericsson

admin — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 10:08:12 +0000

Rumor has it that Sony Ericsson is working on a new concept phone that will revolutionize the way we use our mobile phones. According to available information, the new phone will be called Konan: Beauty Renaissance 2.0. While available pictures may leave our curiosity piqued and appetite for mobile phone eye-candy sated, they say nothing about functions, features or capabilities. If all this rumor mongering is hype-building for a supposedly revolutionary phone, then maybe we should all have the patience to wait until SE officially announces the thing. After all, the Apple iPhone made good on the “revolutionary” hype, didn’t it? [ The Sony Ericsson Konan? via MobileWhack ]

First they started incorporating (very successfully, if I might add) their Walkman and Cybershot technology into their handsets, and most recently, the Bravia TV technology and now, a Bravia-branded handset is produced in Japan with mobile phone operator NTT Docomo. Mobile phone giant Sony Ericsson is looking at the possibility tapping into their Playstation brand for future mobile phone models. According to the company’s president, Miles Flint,”Its an area of possible future activity…â€œWe need to make sure that it is a credible phone, and be sure we are justified in putting that identity on it.” Sony Ericsson, has come up with a winning and golden, tried and tested recipe by enhancing their mobile phones with their trusted brands. They have been very successful in coming up and producing powerhouse phones well-received and acclaimed by consumers and critics alike. It is a no-brainer that the PSP phone will be a hit and will be able to stand its ground against the competition, if and when they decide to come up with such a phone. Please do.

Sony Ericsson W200i Photos leaked

admin — Sat, 05 Apr 2008 13:21:27 +0000

New photos of the recently FCC approved SE W200i have been leaked online. Designed similarly tot he W800i, the Sony Ericsson W200i is a low cost walkman phone. How’d they figure on dropping the price? By dropping some features, like putting a VGA camera where a 2.0 megapixel camera used to be. Not only did they downgrade the camera on this one, they even removed the quick access camera button. The display might just become a 176 x 220 pixel CSTN instead of the TFT the higher end phones have. The W200i won’t support your bluetooth headphones either. No change in walkman software though, and they’re keeping the built in FM radio for the W200i. A M2 memory stick expansion slot is also available for more storage space. No word on pricing or availability, but with all those changes, you’re sure the cost will be reduced.
