Sony Ericsson - Developments so Far in 2008

Among the dozens of mobile phone manufacturers in the market today, Sony Ericsson is probably one of the youngest.  The London-based company was founded in 2001 and it is actually a join venture between Sony Corporation and Ericsson which is  a Swedish company.

Today, Sony Ericsson specializes in manufacturing the following products:
- Mobile phones
- Mobile music devices
- Hi-tech accessories
- Wireless systems
- Wireless voice devices
- Wireless data services

Sony Ericsson Mobile Phones at a Glance

As one of the specializations of Sony Ericsson in general, let us take a look at the line of mobile phones that the company has released so far:

1. Walkman Sony Ericsson Mobile Phones

When purchasing mobile phones these days, it is quite difficult to find an all-in-one mobile device that will give you all the features that you need. As such, you need to decide whether you will settle for an excellent music phone with an average camera - or an excellent camera phone with an average music player.

In this area, Sony Ericsson has lead the pact in manufacturing music-centred mobile phones when the Walkman series was launched in 2005.

2. Cyber-Shot Sony Ericsson Mobile Phones

If you are leaning more towards having an excellent camera phone, then you should go for the Cyber-Shot Sony Ericsson mobile phones.  This line of high-end camera phones was launched in 2006, with the K-Series.

3. UIQ Sony Ericsson Smartphones

Every mobile phone company has started launching a line of smartphones to suit the discriminating tastes of the consumers - and Sony Ericsson is no exception. The Sony Ericsson P800 is an example of the UIQ smartphones that they have.

4. Xperia Sony Ericsson Mobile Phones

Lastly, there is the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone which was launched last February 2008. This utilizes the Windows Mobile operating system

Other Sony Ericsson Developments for the Rest of 2008

First up, the company recently announced that they will launch a new music service called PlayNow Plus.  The service features unlimited music downloads which rivals the music that rival company Nokia is offering.

The PlayNow Plus music service will start in Sweden - then will be rolled out in other countries by 2009.

So which Sony Ericsson mobile phone will be compatible with the new music service that they have? The company is set to release the Sony Ericsson W902 Walkman mobile phone - which will be the first to include the integrated PlayNow Plus service.

The second exciting development that the company offers to its loyal subscribers is the launching of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone. This is the first smartphone that the company has which uses the Windows Mobile operating system.

Based from the initial reviews, the hardware installed in the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 does not disappoint in terms of performance.

To give you an idea about what to expect, here are the specifications for the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 mobile phone:
- 800x480 resolution Touchscreen (flush)
- 3.2 Megapixel camera
- MicroSD for expansion
- MiniUSB for data and charging
- HSDPA/HSUPA/Quad Band
- WiFi and Bluetooth
- aGPS functionality
- 3.5mm headset jack for music
- Qualcomm's MSM7200A CPU, 528Mhz

We may already be well into the third quarter of 2008 - but there are still a lot of Sony Ericsson developments that you should watch out for.
