Sony Ericsson Xperia Mobile Phone

Posted on March 22, 2010 |

It was announced back in February last year but until now, Sony Ericsson’s Xperia X1 touchscreen iPhone baiter has remained tantalizingly out of reach. With its full QWERTY keypad and handwriting recognition, is it enough to bruise Apple mobile phone?

Let’s take a look at Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone’s panel beater. Underneath the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone’s attractive, new-fashioned touchscreen there’s Windows Mobile operating system. It’s hiding behind a snazzy customizable interface called Xperia Panels, which softens the blow a bit, but you’re only ever a prod away from being dumped into Windows Mobile misery.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone sports handwriting recognition to turn your stylus scribbles into on-screen text. It’s a welcome alternative to touchscreen typing, but there’s also a full QWERTY keyboard that slides out from under the screen.

Hopping aboard the interweb express on a Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone is a doddle. It’s got Wi-Fi built in, plus HSDPA for when you stray from the safety of a hotspot. It’s got faster uploading HSUPA tech as well which, if your network carrier supports it, will make uploading pics from the 3.2MP snapper quick as a flash.

If you spin the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone around, you will find a 3.2 megapixel camera. This isn’t one of Sony Ericsson’s CyberShot cameras, so you’ll have to make do without all the fancy gubbins come with those such as Car Zeiss lens or xenon flash. However, the autofocus should keep your snaps sharp.

Inbox interrogators are well served by the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone’s support for push email, which delivers missives direct to your mobile phone. Thanks to Windows Mobile it’ll also synchronize up with your computer to share calendars and contacts.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone maintains its sleek figure thanks to a full QWERTY keyboard that’s cunningly hidden away round the back. When called upon it slides out to transform the mobile phone into a powerhouse of pocket-able typing. With looks no other smartphone mobile phone can compete with, Windows Mobile fans have a mighty prospect in store if the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone lives up to its specifications and style.

This mobile phone has a battery that can stand up to 10 hours of calls with 833 hours of standby. It’s size is quite bulky though however it weighs only 158g.

Coming Soon: Sony Ericsson Satio Mobile Phone – 12 Megapixel Camera

Posted on January 10, 2010 |

Sony Ericsson Satio

Sony Ericsson have decided to really show off with his one. Groundbreakingly amazing is what some have called this handset with an impressive 12 megapixel digital camera built-in. A 12MP camera on a mobile phone? What’s the point? – Well, with that kind of resolution, you can take pictures big enough to go on a billboard poster (well nearly anyway!).

After hearing about the Sony Ericsson Satio Mobile Phone’s 12MP camera it immediately occurred to me that with this high resolution camera, there must come a requirement for an extremely large amount of memory.
