Sony Ericsson W995 Walkman: Complete Entertainment


The World Mobile Congress 2009 was opened by Sony Ericsson and the first mobile they chose to unveil was the W995 Walkman. The price is as yet undisclosed and it is expected to debut in the market sometime in the second quarter. I can’t tell you how excited I was to see this mobile phone. It is, by far, one of the most exciting phones to come into the market this year.
The W995 Walkman is the first mobile from Sony Ericsson that features Media Go, which is an all-in-one media organization system. Its main function is to transfer and organize as well as play a multitude of multimedia file formats for ease of use. Users can transfer audio, photos, and video between phones and computers without needing to manually convert the files.
The Sony Ericsson W995 Walkman brings about another first for Sony Ericsson. After resisting long enough, they have finally incorporated a 3.5 mm audio jack which allows users to connect any standard headphone set directly into the phone. So far, Sony Ericsson has tended towards using wireless Bluetooth enabled headsets alone.
The other main feature offered by the See Sony's press release is an 8.1 MP Cyber-Shot quality camera with 16x digital zoom, auto-focus, face detection, a flash, image stabilization, Sony's PictBridge, a video recorder as well as the ability to geo-tag pictures via the phone's A-GPS. The phone also has a 2.6” display which lends itself beautifully for everything from pictures to videos to movies.
There are a host of other features in the Sony Ericsson phones that I could go on and on about. But, suffice it to say, that any feature you see in any high end phone is incorporated here. Moreover the colors black, grey and red, in which the phone is available in also make for a great style statement.
