Sony Ericsson Naite now available from Sony Style

Posted in Sony Ericsson by Conner Flynn on March 3rd, 2010

The eco friendly Sony Ericsson Naite is a nice looking candybar phone. It’s now available on the Sony Style website ( “out of stock” at the moment though). The unlocked and unsubsidized phone will cost you $159.

That’s not too bad when you consider that the case made of 50 percent post-consumer recycled plastic and has an ultra-eco charger. Might be a good backup phone. And besides, you are doing your part for the environment. If you don’t, who will?

Posted in Android by Conner Flynn on December 23rd, 2009

Apparently Motorola isn’t going to be the only one offering an alternative Android store. Looks like Sony Ericsson and General Mobile are also planning their own Android stores. Sony Ericsson has already announced that they will be accepting submissions for apps and games for Android devices.

Meanwhile General Mobile is already working on Storeoid, its own Android app store. How this will affect the Android Market and Apple’s AppStore, we don’t know. But competition is good right? 2010 is looking very interesting.

Sony Ericsson MH907 motion activated headphones

Posted in Sony Ericsson by Conner Flynn on September 21st, 2009

Sony Ericsson MH907 motion activated headphonesSony Ericsson has unveiled the first ever motion activated headphones. The Sony Ericsson MH907 uses the SensMe Control technology to respond without pressing any buttons. The idea is that you have the two headphones in your ears and are listening to music as you normally would.

But if you want to pause the music, you can remove one ear bud to pause it. To start listening to the music again just place it back in your ear. Is it just me or are these the Stupidest headphones ever? When I’m listening to music, my hands are usually busy. It would be very annoying to have to constantly mess with what is already safely in my ear just to do things like pause a track.

Posted in Sony Ericsson by Conner Flynn on July 21st, 2009

Sony Ericsson Xperia X3 Rachael specs unveiledYou might remember the Sony Ericsson Rachael, SE’s first Android smartphone. Its official name might be Sony Ericsson Xperia X3, and not Xperia X5, as some have previously thought. Anyway, back when we Showed you the device, we didn’t have a lot of info on it’s features.

Sony Ericsson Bao handset

Posted in Sony Ericsson by Conner Flynn on July 6th, 2009

Sony Ericsson Bao handsetI’m calling this new Sony Ericsson handset the preferred handset of Stealth fighter pilots since it seemingly has so many angles that it might evade radar. It reminds us the Nokia 7070 aside from the clamshell format. One thing is for sure, it stands out from the pack.

We don’t have much info on this one. Just that the Sony Ericsson Bao comes with a built-in camera. A launch date is still likely a long way off. I don’t know about you, but I like the angles.

Sony Ericsson’s first Android phone leaked

Posted in Android by Conner Flynn on July 5th, 2009

Sony Ericsson's first Android phone leakedSony Ericsson’s first Android smartphone will be a high-end touchscreen device that will take on the iPhone, according to a Danish scoop. Codenamed “Rachel,” the phone would fit into the XPERIA line occupied only by the X1 but would emphasize speed. Like the Windows Mobile-based Toshiba TG01, it would have a high-end 1GHZ Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. It may also compete against the iPhone 3GS with “great” 3D graphics capabilities.

The device will also feature an 8-megapixel autofocusing camera, 3G up to 7.2Mbps and a large display. The company has previously gone on record saying that its first Android phone will use Android 2.0 and so have at least the device-wide search and other features being added to the release.

Sony Ericsson “Kiki” handset

Posted in Sony Ericsson by Conner Flynn on July 5th, 2009

Sony Ericsson "Kiki" handsetThis leaked handset is the Sony Ericsson Kiki. It’s interesting for a few reasons and the design is nothing like we’ve seen from Sony Ericsson. For one thing, the screen is made of glass and the screen image appears to be projected onto the glass surface for more in depth images. You’ll also notice the lack of keys.

How it works, we aren’t sure, but with the lack of keys we’re guessing it isn’t a full feature smartphone.
