14 DAY TRIAL // Sony Ericsson also made available today its C901 mobile phone, although it did not make an official announcement with the device the same as it did with the rest of today's new handsets. The Sony Ericsson C901 will only be available in select markets, yet it seems much like the earlier presented C903 Cyber-shot.
The C901 includes a 5-megapixel camera that sports auto focus, Smile shutter, BestPic, Smart Contrast, Face detection, PhotoFix as well as geo-tagging. In addition to these features, the C901 has xenon flash instead of a photoflash LED. The snapper also comes with Video stabiliser, Video recording, Red-eye reduction, as well as Video and Picture blogging capabilities.
The new Sony Ericsson handset supports GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900, UMTS/HSPA 900/2100 frequency standards, but it also features USB support, USB mass storage, Bluetooth technology, Synchronisation, PictBridge and Google Maps support, as well as Mega Bass and Memory Stick Micro (M2) support.
Other features of the handset include Fm-radio with RDS, built-in accelerometer, Instant messaging, Picture messaging (MMS), Email, Exchange ActiveSync, Sound recorder, Video streaming, Speakerphone, Bluetooth stereo (A2DP) and Media Player, as well as Internet capabilities, including Web feeds, WAP 2.0 XHTML, WAP 1.2.1, and Access NetFront Web Browser.
The TFT screen of the Sony Ericsson C901 can offer a 320x240 pixel resolution and support for 262.144 colors. The phone's battery can provide up to 9½ hours of talk time as well as 430 hours of standby time. The device measures 105 x 45 x 13 millimeters (4.1 x 1.8 x 0.5 inches) and weighs 107 grams (3.8 oz).
The new C901 will come to the market in the second quarter of the year in three versions, Noble Black, Sincere Silver and Precious Peach. More details can be found on the company's site.
