Sony Ericsson flagship store opened in Taiwan
Sony Ericsson has opened a new flagship store in Taiwan. The grand opening took place today (May 10th) and the ceremony included tons of promo materials for the first visitors, including SE branded bikes and towels. Hmm, why do we care about the promo materials. Guess they just make the scene more compelling and the […]

More Sony Ericsson BeiBei leaked photos
Almost a month ago we posted one of the first Sony Ericsson BeiBei leaked photos. As far as we know, the upcoming device will run the latest version of UIQ (3.3) on top of Symbian OS, and will also boast such things as some camera (we're not sure about the megapixel count), WiFi and Bluetooth. […]

first Sony Ericsson BeiBei leaked photos. As far as we know, the upcoming device will run the latest version of UIQ (3.3) on top of Symbian OS, and will also boast such things as some camera (we're not sure about the megapixel count), WiFi and Bluetooth. We would certainly like to see HSDPA on the list too, but we're not sure about that one either.

It's likely the Swedish-Japanese handset maker won't market the BeiBei as a smartphone — rather, they'll probably sell it to all round feature phone users, which want an extra function or two from time to time. They're already using the same/similar concept with the G700 and G900 models. In that sense, Sony Ericsson may have a winner with the BeiBei.

What follows are several photos of the upcoming device, as well as four screenshots. Enjoy!

  • Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 whitepaper shows two XPERIA X1 variants
    With the 3G iPhone just over the horizon and the HTC Touch Diamond grabbing gobs of attention from the Windows Mobile camp, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 superphone that took the industry by storm just a couple months ago has taken an unfortunate back-burner position. Don't misunderstand, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 is still an […]

    Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 superphone that took the industry by storm just a couple months ago has taken an unfortunate back-burner position. Don't misunderstand, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 is still an incredible piece of kit for which many people (yours truly included) would sacrifice a non-essential appendage - it's just that other handset news has pushed the XPERIA X1 out of the news cycle.

    So, it's good to see the newest white paper on the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1. We already know with a fair degree of certainty what the X1 will look like and what kind of features it will boast when it launches, but there are a couple significant insights lying within the white paper.

    First, and foremost, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 will launch with two distinct variants. The US, in all its awkwardly non-conforming greatness, will be seeing the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1a hit its shores. The "a" presumably indicates that the X1a will be pulling duty as the Windows Mobile superphone of choice on AT&T's 3G network. The rest of the world will be getting the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1c.

    The XPERIA X1a will be distinguished from its X1c sibling in its choice of 3G frequency support. The X1a will sport a quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) radio and a tri-band (850/1900/2100Mhz) UMTS/HSPA radio for 3G data connectivity, while the X1c changes things up with a tri-band (900/1900/2100Mhz) UMTS/HSPA 3G radio. The XPERIA X1c should be shipped to the rest of the world with 3G frequency support in the 900Mhz band in favor of the 850Mhz band that us Americans are so fond of.

    Notable is the 10 hours of GSM talk time or 6.5 hours of 3G talk time. Hit up the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 whitepaper PDF here for the rest of the detailed device specs, or just click on the image gallery below.

      brand ambassador as hot as Maria Sharapova, you certainly want to use her on as many promotional materials as you possibly can. Sony Ericsson knows that, hence they've released "Maria Sharapova using the stylish Z555i mobile phone" wallpapers. That's for both mobile and desktop, even though we care only about the former.

      Apparently, the wallpapers are suited to work with the Z555i clamshell, even though other models (not just those made by the Swedish-Japanese handset maker) will do just fine. As for the desktop wallpapers, simply pick the image with the resolution that fits your monitor and voila — you'll have a beautiful face saying hello every time you turn on your computer. Nice!

    • Sony Ericsson Z750a now available on AT&T
      It took AT&T and Sony Ericsson two months from the announcement to actually release the Z750a clamshell. And while I guess it's more a matter of timing than problems with a supply chain, I still expected this to happen earlier. Anyway, the first Sony Ericsson U.S. ready HSDPA phone could now be yours for as little […]

      announcement to actually release the Z750a clamshell. And while I guess it's more a matter of timing than problems with a supply chain, I still expected this to happen earlier.

      Anyway, the first Sony Ericsson U.S. ready HSDPA phone could now be yours for as little as $49.99. That's of course the price with a 2-year contract and a mail-in rebate. Three color options are available - gray, purple and pink. Specs include 2 megapixel camera, HSDPA support, stereo Bluetooth (A2DP), 2.2-inch QVGA screen, and a memory stick micro slot.

        XPERIA X1 as the single best Windows Mobile phone announced to date. The newly released XPERIA white paper adds two important details to the mix. Apparently, once it's released in September, the XPERIA X1 will sport:

        1. 256MB of SDRAM and 512MB of NAND Flash - that's the largest amount of memory any smartphone has. Or at least I'm not aware some other device has that much memory available.
        2. High-capacity 1500 mAh lithium polymer battery that should reportedly provide users with up to 10 hours of talk time using GSM or 6.5 hours using UMTS, or 3.1 hours if their making video calls all the time.

        What can I say - I want one! A whole summer divide us from owning the XPERIA. ;(

          Two Sony Ericsson phones have been spotted passing the so called FCC hurdle - the R300 Radio and C902 Cyber-shot.

          R300 Radio and C902 Cyber-shot. The first one is designed for developing countries to allow users to take radio (both AM and FM) with them, where ever they are. The other, more interesting device is the latest and baddest Cyber-shot phone so far - C902. As you're probably aware, this face-detection baby packs 5 megapixel camera into a stylish slim casing and we love it for that.

          Now the question is when we'll see the mentioned two devices hitting the U.S. market. Honestly, we don't have a clue. As a matter of fact, we don't even know whether the Swedish-Japanese handset maker will ever push them to North American consumers. We certainly hope that will be the case with the C902 model, but our hope isn't actually something you can count on…

Sony Ericsson to announce new phones on June 17th?
Sony Ericsson may be announcing more devices on June 17th. Nothing is confirmed at this stage, but if this happens, we'll probably see the Swedish-Japanese handset maker going all official with two Symbian UIQ smartphones - G702 BeiBei and P5 Paris.

G702 BeiBei and P5 Paris. After all, we saw both devices out in the wild, and BeiBei has even passed the FCC hurdle. To put it in other words - we know most things about each of the two devices and now's about time to see them hitting the daylight. We'll be keeping our eyes wide open and report back to you as soon as we have a new tidbit of information, k?

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 for its WVGA screen and that ultra-useful QWERTY keyboard. On the other hand, the HTC Diamond arguably looks better, it's smaller and easier to carry around, plus it has the new Touchflo interface, which in a word - rocks! What do you think, which one do you prefer?

More images follow after the jump.

    We're not sure whether to trust this because of all the release date confusions in the past, and honestly I hope the Swedish-Japanese handset maker will release the XPERIA X1 before mid-September, but according to Handango's newsletter that's about the time you'll be able to grab the all-in-one Windows Mobile wonder from Sony Ericsson. They said H2 2008 and we always thought it's July, or at least hoped that will be the case. The good thing, though, is the X1 is still on schedule for launch this year as we reported previously.

    Anyway, the device will come with Handango's InHand service, meaning more software downloads will be available at your fingertips. Good ol' Handango is in the midst of "seeking the best products for this device" that will support the gorgeous WVGA screen. Now if only someone could borrow me some patience till September that would be awesome. ;(

          Q1 2008 has delivered a shake-up in the rankings of Mobile Handset Vendors in India.

          Nokia continues to dominate, follow by Sony Ericsson. However, Samsung have now passed Motorola to take 3rd position (echoing changes that we have seen occurring in other countries).

          If you want some stats, and I'm sure you do, Nokia are around the 70% (!) mark, whereas SEM is at about 8%, and Samsung at 7%. Motorola are now around the 6% mark.

          Samsung, which according to some sources is the world's second largest handset vendor, is planning to double it's market share in India by end of year (remember above is only Q1 stats) - you can expect a slew of new devices covering across all the tiers/segments of the market.

          Motorola on the other hand will need to ship high volumes of handsets over the next few months to reverse the trend above - something that no doubt many industry commentators will be watching closely.
