I think it would have been easier to ask, “who doesn’t want a Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1?” As Sony Ericsson’s Windows Mobile-powered, high-res touchscreen, sliding QWERTY superphone, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 is quite possibly the most anticipated WinMo device that we’ve heard of to date. And, in a seeming effort to cash in on…
Another stun gun that looks like a mobile phone – The Sony Ericsson stun gun
Stun guns that look like mobile phones aren’t new. But, the latest cellphone turned stun gun to be discovered actually looks like a decent handset upon cursory inspection. This Sony Ericsson look-alike is a fresh departure from previous stun guns masquerading as ugly monoblock handsets, and the police in Nottingham, England are surprised to have…
Sony Ericsson W580i gets a new color – Jungle Green
Again we see Sony Ericsson releasing existing devices in new colors. Following the pink version, the Swedish-Japanese handset maker is about to release the W580i in “Jungle Green” color.

Sony Ericsson denies reports that it is ending partnershp with DoCoMo
Wow, the Japanese handset market is really proving to be a tough nut to crack (a profit from, that is).

Sony Ericsson touchscreen patent application details reconfigurable display based on orientation
The USPTO must be busy these days. With every tech company jockeying to secure legal rights to anything resembling an idea, it’s a wonder how the truly deserving and innovative ideas ever get issued a patent.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 shows AT&T graphic at CeBIT
At this year’s CeBIT in Germany, Sony Ericsson is showing its latest super-baby XPERIA X1. What struck us down is the AT&T’s logo located at the center of menu. What could that possibly mean? Is Swedish-Japanese handset maker trying to indirectly pitch the U.S. based carrier through media? Or the deal is already done and…
Is this Sony Ericsson W990? I want to believe
Even though it’s highly unlikely this is the real deal, we do want to believe Sony Ericsson is listening to the market and that they’ll eventually release something like this. As you can see, the device runs Windows Mobile and has nothing but a huge touchscreen. The brown color is there to sort of prove…
Video: Hands on Sony Ericsson T303
Somehow we’ve no doubts Sony Ericsson has a winner with the T303 model. It’s stylish, slick and looks solidly built. Add the low price point to the mix, and voila… there’s the magic formula. Anyway, just thought you may want to see the new device in action. Actually, this may still be a prototype as…
Sony Ericsson T303: Attractive and cheap feature phone
Sony Ericsson just announced their T303, a low end phone that surprisingly looks quite pretty. The specs are hardly impressive: 1.3 megapixel camera, 128×160 pixel screen with only 65k colors and triband EDGE, but weighing 93 grams and being only 83 x 47 x 15 mm will get this sucker attention. No word on pricing,…
