Sony Ericsson new Walkman phone W880i
The display is a 1.8" 240x320 pixel TFT panel in 262,000 colour, and the W880i has a two megapixel primary camera with a secondary camera for video calls. A 1GB Memory Stick Micro card is included in the box, which by our calculations is enough for about 16 albums worth of high-quality audio. The W880i has stereo Bluetooth and an enhanced version of the Walkman player.
The W880i is a UMTS 2100 MHz 3G phone with tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz GSM, but there's no word of a "W880a" version for North America. The W888c is a non 3G tri-band GSM version of the W880i with the video calling camera omitted, aimed at mainland China.
Talktime on GSM is quoted as 6.5 hours with 17 days standby time and up to 20 hours of music playback. 3G use and Bluetooth will reduce the battery life, of course.
The other features on the Sony Ericsson W880i are very similar to other handsets in the current crop of "Walkman" phones - there's a web browser, email client (with push capabilities), RSS newsreader, speakerphone, video streaming and of course a comprehensive multimedia player.
There are some compromises with the Sony Ericsson W880i though - the main one is the size of the screen. Although it's a 240x320 pixel display, it is only 1.8", compared with the 1.9" display on the lower end W610i and display sizes of over 2.0" on many other phones.. however, the slightly smaller screen has advantages in weight and power consumption. There's no flash on the main camera (and 3.2 megapixels would have been much nicer), and unlike some other "Walkman" phones, the W880i doesn't have an FM radio. The other missing feature is the lack of quad-band GSM and the W880i doesn't have EDGE support either - so this is very much aimed at UMTS 2100 users only. This is nit-picking really - if you want some of these features in a Sony Ericsson "Walkman" phone, then you have plenty of other choices available.
In terms of looks, the W880i combines Sony Ericsson's typical understated design with a distinctly stylish finish. Combined with the ultra-slim form factor, and the W880i will clearly have plenty of "wow" factor. The W880i will come in two colour schemes of "Steel Silver" and "Flame Black".
Sony Ericsson say that the W880i should be available in the first quarter of 2007 in selected markets.

Nokia 6301 UMA Phone with Wi-Fi
Nokia launched its new Nokia 6301 phone. they bring Wi-Fi to a wider audience with the 6301. The bar-shaped phone incorporates the wireless standard both to provide a fast alternative for Internet access and to offer calls over Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA); as with earlier phones of its kind, the 6301 can automatically hand over calls from the cellular network to VoIP and back. This not only saves cellular minutes when calls begin on Wi-Fi but also improves reception indoors; many users could scrap a landline entirely with a supporting cell carrier, Nokia says. To reflect this, the 6301 comes bundled with a desk stand to let the phone charge without losing its connection to a home wireless network.
The handset still includes many of Nokia's stronger mid-range features and includes a 2-megapixel camera as well as AAC, MP3, and WMA music support on microSD storage up to 4GB in size; users can also turn to FM radio in a pinch, says the company. Calling time is rated at a relatively brief 3.5 hours. The 6301 should go on sale before the end of the year for 230 Euros ($321) bundled with both its stand and a 128MB microSD card. Service is expected to start with the European cellular provider Orange and should spread worldwide, though tri-band GSM will limit the device's use in North America.

Nokia 3110 Evolve
Based on an unremarkable and fairly inexpensive handset launched earlier this year, the 3110 Evolve is a basic tri-band GSM phone with a 128 x 160 pixel display, 1.3 megapixel camera, FM stereo radio, microSD expandable memory and an MP3 player, plus Bluetooth and USB connectivity.
It's a pretty lightweight handset at 87 grams, but you can tell by the specification that the screen is the 3110 Evolve's biggest weakness.
So what makes this different from a standard 3110? Well, Nokia say that there is "bio-sourced material on the covers", and they also say that the cover material is 50% renewable - so we guess that it uses some sort of plant-based hydrocarbon compound rather than plastic from fossil fuels. The Nokia 3110 Evolve comes in a much smaller sales package consisting of 60% recycled content, and there's a new more efficient phone charger. Nokia say that the charger uses "94% less energy than the Energy Star requirements" but does not give any figures comparing it to a standard unit.
3110 Evolve In other words, the Nokia 3110 Evolve uses less plastic, is more efficient to transport and uses less power than a standard 3110. These are all good things, but add them together and they are hardly going to counteract all the billions of tons of carbon dioxide that humans are pumping into the atmosphere. Sure, getting a slightly greener phone (and using less plastic bags) is a good thing - but real change will require much harder lifestyle choices than this. And surely this sort of approach from manufacturers is the very least we should expect.
We think that there is a fatal flaw in Nokia's thinking - the Nokia 3110 Evolve is not the sort of phone that you'll want to hang onto for a few years. The limitations of the low-resolution screen will probably drive many people to replace it quite early. Our advice is this - buy a better phone, and keep it for longer. Then when you've finished with it, recycle it and raise some money for a worthwhile charity. Oh, and unplugging your phone charger when not in use is a good thing too.
The Nokia 3110 Evolve should be available during Q1 2008. No pricing was available at the time of going to press.
Nokia World 2007: Nokia outlines its vision of Internet evolution and commitment to environmental sustainability
Amsterdam, The Netherlands - At the annual Nokia World conference today, Nokia outlined its vision for the mobile industry, predicting rapid change driven by the convergence of mobility and the internet, and the need for the industry to make an increasing contribution to environmental sustainability. In his keynote address, Nokia president and CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo highlighted Nokia's commitment to driving both trends.
Speaking to an audience of some 2,700 delegates who had gathered in Amsterdam to experience Nokia's vision of the mobility industry's future, Kallasvuo said: "We are at the dawn of a new era in mobile communications driven by the rapid convergence of the internet and mobility, and Nokia is setting the pace of change. But with market leadership in an industry of this scale also comes responsibility," he said. "We are committed to taking a leading role in increasing environmental awareness and performance right across the industry, creating further products and services that help people make more sustainable choices. It is both the responsible thing to do and it makes good business sense."
Nokia unveils "Comes With Music"
During the event the company announced Nokia Comes With Music, a revolutionary program that enables people to buy a Nokia device with a year of unlimited access to millions of tracks from a range of great artists - past, present and future. Once the year is complete, customers can keep all their music without having to worry about it disappearing when their subscription is over.
"We set out to create the music experience that people are telling us they are looking for - all the music they want in the form of unlimited downloads to their mobile device and PC," said Anssi Vanjoki, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Multimedia, Nokia. "Even if you listened to music 24 hours a day, seven days a week, you would still only scratch the surface of the music that we're making available. Comes with Music fulfils our dream to give consumers all the music they want, wherever they want it, while rewarding the artists who create it."
The program will launch with Universal Music Group International, and Nokia is in discussion with the remaining major international labels.
Universal Music Group International Chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge was at Nokia World to launch the program with Nokia. "It's fantastic to work with Nokia on Comes With Music," said Grainge. "We feel it's an innovative way for people to discover and enjoy new artists, while at the same time having access to the amazing depth of the Universal catalog. Comes With Music allows our artists to reach new audiences in a very easy and affordable way."
Ovi - your personal dashboard to life
Nokia also gave further details of the upcoming Ovi Internet services environment. Ovi, meaning 'door' in Finnish, enables consumers to easily access their existing social network and content, acting as a dashboard to a person's life.
"Ovi combines the mobile, PC and web environments into an easy to use experience with common user interface elements that provide consistency and simplicity," said Vanjoki. "We started the Ovi services rollout with the individual services in navigation, music and games, and the next step is to provide an integrated experience. The complete Ovi environment and new services will be rolled out continuously throughout 2008."
Towards greater environmental sustainability
Nokia also outlined its long heritage in addressing environmental issues and commitment to driving new initiatives in the mobile industry in areas such as energy efficiency, materials used in products, take back, recycling, and packaging. This was against the background of the launch of the Nokia 3110 Evolve, a mobile device with bio-covers made from more than 50% renewable material. The device is presented in a small package made of 60% recycled content and it comes with Nokia's most energy efficient charger yet, using 94% less energy than the Energy Star requirements*.
The Nokia 3110 Evolve is the latest in a series of environmental initiatives from the company. For example, Nokia was the first manufacturer to put alerts into its devices to encourage people to unplug their chargers. The power that could be saved globally by all Nokia phone users unplugging their chargers when no longer needed is equivalent to enough energy to power 100,000 average-size European homes. In February 2006, Nokia also introduced new compact packaging that reduced materials used by 54%, a move which by the end of this year will have resulted in 5,000 fewer trucks needed to distribute products, reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions, and savings of EUR 100 million.

BenQ T33 music phone
BenQ concluded its week with news of the T33, a new music-oriented slider phone designed for ease of use above all else. A side music key automatically cues up the music player regardless of where the user might be in the interface, helping manage AAC and MP3 tracks.
The number pad also implements a unique, wave-like design which is said to be easy to use for dialing while also being fashionable. MicroSD cards up to 2GB hold the phone's pre-recorded media as well as photos or AVI and MPEG-4 videos captured using the 2-megapixel camera. An FM radio tuner is also available as an alternative source of entertainment, BenQ says.
The phone operates on a tri-band GSM radio and so is most likely to be sold in BenQ's Asian home as well as in Europe. Although focused on media, the handset relies primarily on the legacy GPRS format for connecting to the Internet rather than EDGE or a 3G technology like HSDPA. BenQ did not mention an exact release date or a price, though the T33 may be ready immediately and is expected to sell for relatively little without the added mobile broadband chipset.

Motorola RIZR Z6 announced
The Motorola RIZR Z6 will run on a new Linux-Java-based user interface and promises enhanced music experience featuring connectivity with Windows Media Player 11 and supporting Janus DRM. It will have the same design as its predecessor RIZR Z3 with almost the same size but it will weigh 10 g less. The new RIZR Z6 will have an improved display - this time with QVGA resolution, but it will retain the 2 megapixel camera of the predecessor. We hope that there would be some improvement in the camera quality department too since the RIZR Z3 deserved some criticism along that line of functionality.

Sony Ericsson K770 Cyber-shot Phone
The Sony Ericsson K770i is a lightweight 3G phone, coming in at 95 grams and just 14.5mm thick. There's a 3.2 megapixel camera with flash and autofocus, plus a 1.9" 240x320 pixel display.
Sony Ericsson K770i Because it's a Cyber-shot branded phone, the K770i comes with more than just a camera. There's a built-in "photo fix" application for helping to adjust those pictures that just didn't quite come out correctly. Plus the K770i has stereo Bluetooth, FM radio, Memory Stick Micro expandable memory (256Mb included in the box), a multimedia player, an email client, web browser and RSS reader. If you're familiar with previous Cyber-shot branded phones, then you'll know what to expect.
Sony Ericsson are quoting an astonishing 10 hours talktime when used on GSM, but this drops down to 2.5 hours when used on a 3G network. Standby time in either mode is a maximum of 16 days which is impressive.
Still, the K770i is unlikely to disappoint, with it's compact frame and unfussy good looks. Just don't expenct people to go "wow" when they see it - the K770i is far too understated to be a head-turner. Sony Ericsson say that the K770i will be available in selected markets from the autumn.

The K660 is engineered to ensure that you’re not kept waiting for the news or content that matters to you. Music, video or email – HSDPA technology lets you download it all at speeds that are up to four times faster than regular 3G.
The K660 squeezes a 2.0 megapixel camera into its compact frame, making it easy to capture the moment. And since the Web is at your fingertips, it’s just a few clicks to upload your picture to your blog and share it instantly with friends and family.

Sony Ericsson 3G Z610 / Z610i
The hidden 'magic mirrow' display is probably the most coolest things in the design, it is considered hidden because the external display that uses OLED technology will only be revealed when the phone receives a call or any type of message, other than that the display will be invisible - the effect produced by this magic must be really nice to watch. To give it a jewelry status, a mirror finish was applied on the front cover of the cellphone. Comes with a normal 2.0Megapixel camera which will work perfectly in coordination with the Picture Blog application, just a couple of clicks to upload your photos to a blog and they will be live on the internet to share with friends. The 3G technology is also supported, it comes in handy when there is a 2-inch screen to make use of on videocalls, not to talk about Push Email and RSS feed support when making use of the internet.

Synaptics Onyx Concept; Next Generation Mobile Phone Concept
"Mobile phones are no longer used just for making calls -- they have become a single access point for critical day-to-day information," explains Clark Foy, vice president of Synaptics. "The Onyx phone is a breakthrough illustration of how advances in interface technology and collaborative design will drive the future of mobile interactions and services."
Collaborative Design
The Onyx phone is the result of collaboration between Synaptics and Pilotfish, under the philosophy that hardware and software are not two separate fields, but interrelated parts of the overall experience of a product. Utilizing Synaptics' ClearPad touch screen technology & interaction design, Pilotfish created a cutting-edge user interface and industrial design model for OEMs to innovate upon.
"The real meaning of this product is about opening up the channels between hand, eyes, and device, and giving people access to actions and information in a way not possible with conventional buttons," says Brian Conner, leader of the design team for the Onyx at Pilotfish in Munich. "When carrying this out, we integrated the approach to designing product form and user interface, and started by focusing on the actions and experiences around the Onyx – the result is a device where the new interaction possibilities are supported and emphasized by the simple, clear form."
About Synaptics
Synaptics is a leading developer of interface solutions for the mobile computing, communications and entertainment industries. The company creates interface solutions for a variety of devices including notebook PCs, PC peripherals, digital music players, and mobile phones. The TouchPad, Synaptics' flagship product, is integrated into more than 50 percent of today's notebook computers. Consumer electronics and computing manufacturers use Synaptics' solutions to enrich the interaction between humans and intelligent devices through improved usability, functionality and industrial design.

Sony Ericsson K790 & K800 "Cybershot" Phones
The K790 and K800 are almost identical, except the K800 (pictured) is a 3G phone with a secondary video camera (in the top grille), and the K790 is an EDGE handset. All other characteristics are the same.
The main feature with the K790 and K800 is the camera - a 3.2 megapixel unit with autofocus, an image stabilizer, Xenon flash and Bluetooth printing. There's a neat feature called "BestPic", which takes 9 pictures at once so you can choose the best one.
Go beyond the camera, and this is a pretty typical high-end camera phone, with a 240x320 pixel display in 262,000 colours, Bluetooth, expandable memory on Memory Stick Micro cards, an FM radio, WAP 2.0 browser, email client, MP3 player, QuickShare plus an RSS news reader (Mobile Gazette also carries an RSS feed).
It's a pretty standard size for a candy bar, at 105x47x22mm and 115 grams. The physical dimensions are the same for the 3G and EDGE models. Talktime on GSM is 7 hours with 14 days standby, on 3G this drops to 2.5 hours talktime. In terms of looks, the SE K790 and K800 looks like a typical Sony Ericsson device, although it's not the most exciting looking handset in Sony Ericsson's range, although the back of the K790/K800 does look suitably like a digital camera.
The K790 will be available in a K790a 850/1800/1900 MHz GSM configuration for the Americas, a K790c 900/1800/1900 MHz model for mainland China, plus a K790i 900/1800/1900 model for the rest of the world. The K800 will be available in two UMTS 2100 plus 900/1800/1900 GSM configurations, the K800c for China and the K800i for the rest of the world.
It's all very well branding a phone with "Cybershot", but it doesn't necessarily mean that the camera is any good. However, the Sony Ericsson K750's 2 megapixel camera is widely regarded as being one of the best around, so the 3.2 megapixel unit in the K790 and K800 looks very promising indeed.
Sony Ericsson say that both models should be available from Q2 2006 in the pictured "Velvet Black" colour.

Nokia's luxury unit strives to meet high demand
Vertu targets wealthy customers by producing very costly mobile phones made from platinum, gold and diamonds.
"At the moment we cannot meet demand. Sales are more than doubling this year. We hope that pace will continue also next year," Chris Harris, Vertu's marketing director, told Reuters on the sidelines of a news conference.
Harris also said Vertu's new mobile phone model would hit the shops next month and was expected to boost sales.
Vertu does not reveal separate financial details, and its numbers are included in those of Nokia's Mobile Phones unit.
While analysts expect Nokia to sell about 330 million phones this year at an average of around 100 euros ($129) apiece, Vertu sells "tens of thousands" of phones at prices topping 4,000 euros, Harris said.
"We are not in the hundreds of thousands yet, but our aspirations are there," he said.
Vertu has been reaping the rewards of a global economy enjoying growth rates well above the average for recent decades but there are signs the expansion may be slowing, particularly in the key U.S. consumer market.
