Sony Ericsson Reveals new Walkman Phones!

July 23rd, 2008

Sony Ericsson is offering a trio of new mobile devices in their Walkman line, and it is clear that these phones were built to deliver good mobile service and amazing audio quality.  All three feature High Quality Audio Playback, which is a step above typical mp3 players, and also include music applications like TrackID, for music recognition, new controls such as the Shake Control, which allows the user to change tracks with the flick of a hand, and SenseMe, an app which allows you to make playlists based on your mood. 

The top of the line W902 Walkman Phone sports a 2.2 inch display, accelerometer which changes the screen angle as you shift the phone, and 3G capability with incredible downlink speed of 3.6 mbps for a full html browser.  Other features include a front facing camera for video calling, a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, a built in FM radio, and 8GB of memory for all the media.  All in all it sounds like a great product, especially for those who take their phone on the go, whether it be running, biking, working out… or wherever.  Even though it will never match the business capability of an iPhone or a Blackberry, I like that Sony is taking a least a part of their mobile line-up in a new direction– towards those who don’t necessarily want to be working at home.
