14 DAY TRIAL // If you're living in Japan, this spring you'll have no problem finding a mobile phone that you like. In fact, mobile operators from Japan have released so many phones, that it should keep customers busy deciding which phone they're getting for a whole year.
KDDI and NTT DoCoMo released ten phones each and Softbank, although the last to present the Spring collection in this case is definitely not the least, serving up phones just as good looking and feature packed as the other two Japanese operators.
The list of phones released includes the 708SC from Samsung, 812SH and 813SH by Sharp, 911T, 812T and 813T by Toshiba, X01NK by Nokia, 706P by Panasonic and 706N by NEC.
The 812T is a phone for kids with built-in GPS and it's not exactly new as it has been presented to the public before. The X01NK by Nokia is basically a rebranded version of the E62 and it's quite surprising that, finally, a Japanese operator decided to include a mobile phone manufactured by Nokia in their lineup.
Co-branded with Pantone, the 812SH clamshell phone could be considered the most impressive phone just because of the fact that it comes in no less than twenty colors.
So, when customers go to choose a phone from Softbank, not only do they have to choose between an almost insane number of different devices, but if they end up choosing the 812SH, they'll have to pick between 20 different colors too.
As for features, the 911T slider phone could easily humiliate most of the mobile phones out there, packing a screen with an 800 x 480 pixel resolution, a 3.2 megapixel camera, 1seg TV tuner, 1GB of internal memory and MicroSD card slot for memory expansion.
