Sony Ericsson Satio - an Entertainment Unlimited device





Today Sony Ericsson Satio was announced - the new high-end smartphone from Entertainment Unlimited series. It was shown at MWC 2009 on 15th of February with codename Idou. That event wasn’t the real announcement, just a small preview with a small list of specifications and some official photos. But today Sony Ericsson finally announced it with the full list of features, with some surprises like new colours and with final model name Satio.



Sony Ericsson Satio has three wondeful colours. Here they are: Black, Silver and Bordeaux. Black colour was showed at the MWC, Silver was leaked a few weeks after MWC 2009 and Bordeaux colour came as a real surprise to us. Satio is looking so unusual in Bordeaux . But I should admit, that it is a nice colour and it will be fit for women. Black and Silver are more classical colours and they should fit normally for everyone.



Satio supports GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS/HSPA 900/2100 networks. Device has large 3.5″ 360×640 pixels TFT touchscreen, which has ratio 16:9 and supports up to 16,777,216 colors. Device supports SanDisk microSD™ memory cards and 8GB memory card will be included to the box. One of the main feature of the new Satio is, of course, a good camera. Satio has 12.1 megapixel camera with Xenon flash and intuitive touch focus, which helps you to take great images just in few seconds.



Satio has sizes 112 x 55 x 13 mm and weight 126 gram. Device is based on Symbian Foundation operating system (S60 5th edition Symbian™ OS). A lot of applications for this operating system already available online. More specifications of the new Sony Ericsson Satio can be found on the official Sony Ericsson site. And what about launch date of the new Satio? Less then 5 months left to the launch date of this multimedia smartphone. Yeah! The new Sony Ericsson Satio will be launched in October.

The new Aino - entertainment at your fingertips


Aino is the new Sony Ericsson multimedia phone from Entertainment Unlimited series. When you see Aino, The first time it looks more like a stick phone with large screen and without keys. But first impressions of this device are wrong. Aino is not a stick smartphone, it is a mobile phone, which has many interesting features like touchscreen. It’s the first time when we will see a touchscreen on a mobile phone from Sony Ericsson.

Probably, Aino is the final model name and with this name the phone will be launched to the market. Aino has 3.0″ 240×432 pixels TFT touchscreen, which supports up to 16,777,216 colors. Sony Ericsson Aino has only 55 MB of internal memory, but it supports SanDisk microSD™ cards. 8GB SanDisk microSD™ card will be included to the box of the phone. Aino has 8.1 megapixel camera with autofocus and photo flash.



Sony Ericsson Aino has full PlayStation3 compatibility. The new Aino has a real Sony Style look and it is looking like a real PlayStation Portable device. Aino will be available in two nice colours: Obsidian Black and Luminous White. To the box of Aino will be included design-matched Charging Stand EC100 and Wireless Stereo Headphone MH100, which has the same colour variations like Aino. Sony Ericsson Aino and Wireless Stereo Headphone MH100 is a good tandem.



When the phone is closed it has a pretty nice size: 104 x 50 x 15.5 mm. The opened phone looks a bit wide, but it’s not a problem, because Aino has a touchscreen and you will not open the phone very often. Aino has weight 134 gram and that is normal for a slider phone. The most interesting info is, of course, the launch date of the new Aino. Sony Ericsson Aino will be released not earlier than October 2009.

Sony Ericsson Yari


The first new phone announcement at the Sony Ericsson event in London tonight is already a fact. The Sony Ericsson Yari is quite interestingly equipped slider with a specs sheet that suggests a younger audience.

A conservatively styled slider, Sony Ericsson Yari focuses on gaming, promising a whole new user experience. It offers gesture-based gaming somewhere along the lines of the Wii video game console plus dedicated gaming keys for the other titles.

The gesture-based gaming has so far been reserved only for the Sony Ericsson phones in Japan (and gadgets such as the EyeToy camera on the Sony PlayStation 2) and we are pretty glad that now the rest of the world is getting some "twist-tilt-turn-smash" love.

The Sony Ericsson Yari has a 2.4" 262K color QVGA display and a decently sounding 5 megapixel autofocus camera with Face detection and Smile shot. It also has a built-in GPS receiver and an accelerometer that allows automatic screen rotation.

Sony Ericsson Yari network connectivity is duly covered with quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support and dual band UMTS (with HSDPA).


The other interesting features of the Sony Ericsson Yari include Bluetooth, FM Radio with RDS and USB support. It will also have a microSD card slot for expanding the 60 MB of built-in memory.

Sony Ericsson Yari is set to launch in September in Achromatic Black and Cranberry White color versions. Unfortunately there is no information about its pricing just yet.
