For the first time in the walkman phone family, the Gesture Control feature will make its debut. The Gesture Control is a motion detector that gives the user the powerful functionality of snoozing the alarm or muting your mobile phone just with the wave of a hand giving the truly "hands free" experience. Aside from this new innovation brought to the market by the W380, Sony Ericsson is also presenting the W380 in a clamshell form factor with two available colors; Magnetic Gray and Electric Purple.
Another hip feature of the W380 is the way the hidden display lights up when you tune in to the radio or when you receive a call.

Music controls, which have become a standard with the walkman mobile phone family, for the W380, are located on the outer part near the external screen. Sony Ericsson presents the W380 in three different variants; the W380c which supports GSM900, GSM1800 and GSM1900 is for use in China; the W380a which can accommodate network frequencies of GSM850, GSM1800 and GSM1900 is available in North America, while the W380i which can be used in other parts of the World supports frequencies of GSM900, GSM1800 and GSM1900 which assures users around the World that they can enjoy the different features of the Sony Ericsson W380 wherever they are.

The OLED external screen which
has a resolution of 36 x 128 pixels can display information of the caller and information on the music track that is currently playing. The clamshell designed W380 also features a web browser, e-mail client, RSS reader and other valuable essentials from the Sony Ericsson W-series family. All W380 variants have EDGE and GPRS connectivity capability.
The Sony Ericsson W380 is geared more toward the younger, fashion aware music lover market with its combination of mobile communication expertise and stunning musical effects. The W380 can reproduce songs in MP3 audio format and also possesses a built-in FM Radio Tuner. An assortment of Sony Ericsson standard applications are also present with the W380 like the TrackID technology which has a feature that allows the user to get instant information like singer or album name about a song that he does not recognize. According to figures from Sony Ericsson, TrackID is one of their more popular applications with the feature being activated by someone around the World every second. Once the music is identified by the user, it can be loaded into his mobile phone with just a few clicks with the application PlayNow. PlayNow also provides the W380 with the feature to allow the user to download mobile games, wallpapers, ringtones and entire songs.
Another useful software application bundled with the Sony Ericsson W380 walkman mobile phone is the Media Manager PC which allows the user to point, click and drag music, videos and photos from your personal computer to the mobile phone. This software application allows the user to transfer files with ease and convenience with music files being automatically converted by the software to the correct format. The W380's external music controls gives the user the power to play, skip forward, skip backward or pause the music easily with its one touch buttons.
The 14Mb internal memory of the W380 is augmented by the expandable memory slot which can accommodate a Sony Memory Stick Micro format. The sale package of the W380 has a 512Mb M2 format memory stick included to allow the user to store up to 271 of his favorite songs. The W380 also has support for Stereo Bluetooth with A2DP and USB 2.0 which allows connection to the personal computer or other devices which support these platforms. To enhance the enjoyment of the mobile phone's music features, the user can opt to purchase a Stereo Portable Headset HPM-83 or a Stereo Bluetooth Headset HBH-DS200 which can be paired with the W380.
Summary of Sony Ericsson W380 Features
PROS: The W380 is a handy Walkman phone that comes with unique technological innovations like the Gesture Control. It also lives up to the reputation of the W-series family as an entertaining multimedia tool that everyone can enjoy.
CONS: Having a relatively low number in its model gives the impression that it is a lower end mobile phone for the Walkman mobile phone family. Except for the Gesture Control feature, almost everything is basic for the W-series. The W380 could have been given a boost by putting in a 2 megapixel or higher camera and higher resolution for the internal display.
Overall: The Sony Ericsson W380 Walkman mobile phone carries on the tradition of its predecessors by offering stylish and power packed multimedia features that can send the hearts of music lovers pounding. The introduction of unique features adds to the appeal of the W380. The W380 is undoubtedly for the younger generation of music lovers that look for hip features like the Gesture Control incorporated into their musical devices.

Sony Ericsson W960
Once in a while, we, as consumers, witness partnerships of big name companies that offer us products that either fall short of expectations or thrill and delight us in many ways. Apparently, the cellular phone industry is not excluded from this trend. For most, if not all of us, the names Sony and Ericsson are brands that need no further introduction.
Hard to believe that it was more than a decade ago that I had the fortune of having an Ericsson handset with a one liner monochrome display. Though packed with not a lot of features, even at that time, I appreciated it's tough and masculine feel and clear signal.
Now, of course, Sony is another brand name that we have come to love and has been a household name for as long as I can remember. Many a time we drooled over their television sets and stereo components at home and appliance center display windows. For many years it was the name to beat when it came to gadgets, and are still worthy benchmarks for all consumers and competition alike up to this day.
So when the names Sony and Ericsson were finally merged into one giant entity, many expectations and eyebrows were raised. Optimists eagerly awaited what cool and nifty features the researchers at Sony Ericsson can come up with while detractors (Nokia users perhaps) of course didn't think much of said partnership.
So, to see whether this partnership is worthy of a second glance, let's take a close look at one of their products, particularly the Sony Ericsson W960.
What better way to judge a cellphone than to look at the specs and nitty gritty of its camera capabilities. Quite ironic but it is what most consumers look for in cellphones nowadays. 
In fact I have come across many who crossed out certain handsets from their wish lists after hearing bad phone camera reviews.
Boasting of a 3.2 megapixel shutter complete with autofocus with a dedicated Macro mode and LED flash (dual in fact), and the ability to capture images at a maximum of 2048 x 1536 pixels, the W960 promises clear photos of your friend's envious faces once you whip out this phone from your pocket and start clicking. For the novice user, there is of course the auto focus feature which you can turn off once you get the hang of it and decide you can do better than the phone's focal judgment.
Another standard is the automatic white balance. If you want to start getting a little artsy, the W960 offers a wide range of photo editing capabilities such as rendering your shots as black and white or sepia, or even applying solarization effects. If this is not enough for you, the W960 can even capture videos of your YouTube-worthy karaoke antics. It is with this feature that this unit falls short though, as it can only capture at 15 frames per second when set at the maximum video resolution of 320 x 240 pixels. If this would prove too choppy for you, you can opt to shoot at 30 fps although only at very low resolutions such as QCIF - 176 x 144. Something has to give I guess.
The length of video you can capture of course is dependent on the phone's available memory. Although this is sufficient for the average user, it's shortcomings regarding video capturing is quite of a let-down when compared to its competition.
Another disappointment would be the W960's TFT display. Although the screen size is ample at 2.6 diagonal inches, it only supports 262K colors QVGA at 240 x 320 pixels. This is a shame considering its camera capabilities. The screen is transreflective though which means it performs well even under bright sunlight.
What I consider a plus with the W960 is its design. Although its casing is made out entirely of plastic, it feels sturdy and looks elegant as well. With phone dimensions of only 109 x 55 x 16 mm, this Sony Ericsson handset would fit comfortably into anyone's hand. Lefty users will have a hard time with the location of the jog wheel though as it seems it is designed with the general public of right handed users in mind. Users weary of supposedly “innovative” keypad designs which are just cell phone design novelty more often than not would greatly appreciate the W960's straightforward yet ergonomic keypad. And if that still proves too hard for jotting down messages,
you can opt to use the virtual QUERTY keyboard on the phone's display. Or simply write down your messages using the supplied stylus pen for which the phone has great character recognition. Useful for those of us who can't seem to understand our own bad handwriting?
The W960 can also accommodate after-purchase accessories such as Bluetooth headphones and hands-free sets, portable speakers, and better-than-supplied stylus packs - pretty much what consumers might look for to accessorize their smart phones.
Perhaps it would be wrong to judge the W960 for it's lackluster performance in the video and display department. After all, this is a Walkman phone we're talking about, and this is where the strength of the phone lies – and where the Sony legacy comes in.
First of all, the W960 boasts of an 8gig on board memory – at par with the Apple iPhone. This alone is more than enough for a long, boring ride out of town, taking also into consideration that the W960 promises music playback for 27 hours when fully charged.
Another thing I love about this mobile phone (most people will probably love the W960 for it) is that once connected to a computer, the phone's memory is recognized as an external drive much like when a USB flash drive is plugged into the machine. This means no more fiddling for hours with any proprietary software. To get your music from the computer to your phone, simply drag and drop - via USB or Bluetooth.
PROS: Massive memory at 8 gigabytes. Elegant, compact design. Great multimedia player.
CONS: Plastic casing. Low display and video resolution.
Overall: A good all around handset with all the nifty features the modern consumer looks for in a phone.
Sony Ericsson W580i
The W580i is another product by the Sony and Ericsson combined effort. The unit's stylish and no frills design utilizes a slide opening mechanism and is available in equally attractive silver / orange and black / orange color combinations. The new Walkman logo right beneath the screen alone is enough to make most mobile phone aficionados' hearts start pumping. Most especially true for the music loving mobile phone user looking for seamless cell phone and media player integration. The W580i's music player can play back not only MP3 files but AAC, AAC+, eAAC+ and WMA files as well, making it versatile. So Apple users would certainly delight in this fact as a lot of Mac users prefer the AAC format.
The W580i fails though in the memory department; providing only 12 mega bytes of built in memory. This is ironic since the W580i is targeted at the music-lugging demography, and 12 Mb is obviously not enough. As expected, the unit does have a memory slot for users who want to upgrade their storage with a Micro M2 memory card. Good thing that the W5801 has its own stereo FM tuner. Still, for its purpose the internal memory should have been enough for at least a decent collection of tracks.
Sony Ericsson W580i Camera and Display
The Sony Ericsson W580i houses a 2 mega pixel camera with digital zoom capable of recording still images and videos. And the built in camera in this unit is very reliable. It may not be the best in the market, but what you are getting is certainly
great for its price. Bright outdoor shots have sharp details and pictures taken at overcast environments sill look decent. But as expected with camera phones, indoor photos do not render well and the picture noise level is noticeable. But all in all, picture taking with the W580i's camera is a pleasurable experience. It even comes with its own set of menus dedicated to the camera and video functions.
The user has the option of taking photographs in VGA, 1 mega pixel, or 2 mega pixel sizes. Additional shooting modes such as panorama and burst are also offered. Shots can be tweaked a bit more with the camera application's white balance, color effects, and others. A nice addition also is the photo blogging feature which allows the user to not only send images via MMS messaging but can also publish their photos directly from the phone to a blog site. Now that's mobility, and may get a big chunk of the web logging market. Photos are displayed well with the W580i's 240 x 320 pixel resolution screen.
Sony Ericsson W580i Design and Accessories
With the W580i, Sony Ericsson refuses to be outdone in the design department. It looks stylishly clever with a minimalist flair. With the slider closed, the façade is only occupied by the glorious screen, a large D-pad and a couple of buttons on each side. The orange accents give the W580i its youthful flair, especially with the Walkman logo at the 
center of the phone's width. Once you slide the W580i open, the ergonomically designed striking orange keypad is revealed. At this point though, the fun stops. As upon great inspection you will notice the frailty of the phone's keypad. This is a shame as with the unit targeted towards the youthful market, heavy duty texting is sure to occur.
This is no good when your keypad has the tendency to crack. And the slider is definitely no toughie either and has the tendency to quickly accumulate dust in between the two halves of the phone. The D-pad though is a joy to use. This is as should be considering that the D-pad will experience heavy use when navigating though songs and other files. When you don't have the luxury to look at the phone's D-pad when doing certain activities during music playback, therefore rendering it hard to navigate through your tracks, you may choose to just shake things up, literally. The W580i has a clever little feature called the Shake Control that allows the listener to skip to the next track by just pressing on the Walkman logo and then shaking the phone. This little feature proves very useful indeed, especially during athletic activities like jogging or biking.
Summary of Sony Ericsson W580i Features
PROS: Good camera, Shake control, Photo blogging, good quality inclusive ear buds, great connectivity, stylish and ergonomic design, more than decent music playback, long battery life
CONS: The keypad has tendencies to crack, slider easily accumulates dust, small memory space
Overall: If music is your thing and you are looking for a clever mobile phone and media player integration, then the W580i is definitely for you. It tops in both the form and function department with a lot more additional perks than its size would make you think possible.
Sony Ericsson T280
Just last January, mobile phone giant Sony Ericsson has announced the launch of two new sleek and stylish additions to its line of cellular phone models – the Sony Ericssson T270 and T280, to be available during the first quarter of 2008. Largely based on the highly successful T610, the two new handsets has got both style and uncompromising functionality which boasts of a great number of features the targeted business class consumer will definitley look for.
Now, Sony Ericsson has consistently put out unit after unit of well received handsets for quite some time already and with the T270 and T280, it looks like they are bent on solidifying their mark in the cell phone industry. Both units share a lot of similar functions though each with a definite target market in mind, with the T280 serving as the big brother between the two when it comes to features and capabilities. It is in that light the it would be the sensible thing to take a more intimate and closer look at the Sony Ericsson T280.
The T280's brushed metal finish houses a 1.3 mega pixel camera with 4x digital zoom. A definite upgrade from previous models of Sony Ericsson housing VGA cameras. That being said however, a 1.3 mega pixel camera is still a little bit behind compared to the cameras of recent mobile phones from its competing brands. But images
taken with the T280 still come out clear enough even when printed on standard photo papers at 3 inches x 4 inches. And if you choose to view your shots without having to print, you may do so without hitches, thanks to the T280's 1.7 inch TFT screen displaying up to 65K colors at 128 x 160 pixels. And what's more, the T280 lets you take pictures that you can send to your friends via the phone's Bluetooth support.
Moving your way through the T280's menu is effortless because of its navigation key and the available shortcuts. And texting couldn't be easier with the predictive text input technology which is an intelligent software wherein typing words on a mobile phone is made easier. This is achieved with the phone utilizing a large database of words so everytime you start typing, the phone guesses the word you are trying to encode. This is very useful especially for a phone designed for the businessman on the go.
Sony Ericsson T280 Design and Accessories
Design has always been Sony Ericsson's greatest appeal. And the T280 is definitely a phone you could stare at with great pleasure. It's color combination of silver on black and copper on silver, available for both the T270 and T280, gives off a sense of warmth and 
maturity. But do not get these units wrong. They are not all about serious business though, as like it's targeted audience, these phones know how to be fun. With capabilities of MP3 and having a built in FM radio, the T280 is capable of using MP3 playback of tunes in your playlist as its ringtone. The provided ear buds does not sound so bad either as is the pitfall of most MP3 capable cell phones. But the good thing about this unit is that in case you find the headphone's sound still leaving a lot to be desired, you may use your existing headphones with a 1.5 inch stereo jack. Or if not, the T280 has built in stereo speakers that although does not sound all that well, is a rather enjoyable experience.
Your tunes, images, videos and other files all share residence in the T280's built in phone memory space of just a miniscule 10 mega bytes. That is not much and the phone's internal memory can easliy be filled up. It has no slot for when you want to expand the phone's memory slot so you must choose what you want to bring with very well.
So, with the possibilty of making your T280 double as a portable media player virtually impossible, it does have a lot of charm and functions to help you while away the time. So fret not, for there is of course the built in stereo FM tuner which provides excellent and clear radio signal.
Other must have features for phone targeted at the business man like a calculator, phone book, tasks manager and calculator is rightfully present. And if you are up for a little bit of fun after all that work, the Sony Ericsson T280 is able to play downloaded games.
Summary of Sony Ericsson T280 Features

CONS: No memory expansion slot. Very little phone memory space
Overall: All in all, with the Sony Ericsson's shortcomings aside, the T280 packs a great package for those who want a no frills approach to their mobile experience.
Sony Ericsson K850
There was a time when the Sony Ericsson K800 was the camera phone on everybody's wish list. With its three mega pixel camera and a host of other features, the K800 was the handset to beat and top for many. But with the advent of five mega pixel cameras like Nokia's N95, which proved to be a very popular model amongst the cell phone and gadget aficionados alike, and the competition for the high end consumer market getting stiffer, Sony Ericsson decided to go with the flow and released the Sony Ericsson K850.
It is replacing the popular line of Cyber-shots it seems, and it is apparent though that the K850 took from the Cyber-shot when it comes to its form and function. This design was already started with the K810 and is now greatly improved upon; giving the consumers the style and function they need in the busy urban jungle.
As mentioned earlier, to be able to compete and probably get ahead in the cell phone consumer war, the developers over at Sony Ericsson designed the K850. It is a 5 mega pixel camera phone capable of capturing photos at a maximum resolution of 2592 х 1944 pixels and record video at 30 frames per second QVGA. That video frame rate standard is a lot more than most handsets offering only 15 frames per second.
Of course picture editing software is present for the user to be able to enhance or embellish the already excellent photos taken with the K850's lens, which has auto focus, unlike other models currently in offering. And just like with the previous 
"K" series phones, you can expect a lot of the Cyber-shot devices integrated with the K850. For example, the left software key to launch the options menu to choose the best mode for your shots like panorama, normal, night mode and frames is still present. With that key the user can also set the resolution, self timer, white balance and the ISO. And brushing upon the subject of the K850's ISO, the settings resemble that of real digital cameras with options like: Auto, 100, 200, and 400. Aside from these, there is also an Edit submenu which hosts other settings that any given user would rarely tweak. At the side of the handset you will also find the now already familiar three way switch to choose between camera, camcorder and playback, just like on digital cameras.
With regards to the K850's video capabilities, Sony Ericsson greatly improved with this handset and can now capture videos in 320 x 320 pixel QVGA resolution at thirty frames per second. Although not up to par with Nokia's N95 which has the better VGA resolution, still the K850's QVGA works like a charm and is sufficient for most users, especially for uploading or streaming videos over the internet.
The 2.2 inch display of the K850 though is a treat to view pictures or even videos with as a lot of details can still be seen thanks to its 240 x 320 pixel resolution. Although still small compared to the N95's 2.6 inch display screen, the one on the K850 will be more than enough for those upgrading from the usual under 2 inches of other models.
With regards to the Sony Ericsson K850's design, a lot of consumers will be pleased. It definitely looks stylish and would fit a wide range of personalities, whether you be the suit-wearing business type, the active young urban professional, or the individual with an artistic flair. The integration of the camera into the phone looks rather seamless that it looks as though you are holding either a digital camera or a cell phone, depending on the angle the handset is viewed. Of course the green and silver Sony Ericsson logo looks trendy and elegant against the glossy black casing of the K850. The phone looks especially high tech when turning on, with the glowing red button on the top of the phone and the blue light around the lens. 
The elegant accent is extended on the face of the phone, with the green strip around the navigation pad for its easy location. This is because the navigation keys are integrated with the alphanumerical keypad of the K850. In this case, the form preceded the function as this integration makes it rather difficult to operate. To give you a more visual description, to save space and make up for more screen size while maintaining a compact design, the number 2 and 5 on the alphanumerical keypad is integrated with the navigation pad itself as opposed to giving the navigation pad its own space. This is strange as most users complain that navigation keys are almost always situated too near the number two key that integrating it would only render it worse. And it really takes a lot of getting used to.
PROS: The 5 mega pixel camera works like a charm and the video resolution offers more detail than most camera phones. The integration of the camera to the phone is seamless, giving this handset the feel of a cell phone “and” real digital camera, rather than being a phone “with” a camera.
CONS: Probably the most common gripe with this phone would be the placement of the navigation pad. Although it looks really clean with the end result having less button clutter, the payback is in the usage which makes navigating through the K850's menu rather hard.
Overall: Taking into considerations all of the Sony Ericsson K850's pros and cons though, it is overall a great tool to have and the bad can easily be overlooked when considering all the great features.
