14 DAY TRIAL // According to the latest news on the Web, T-Mobile USA will soon launch two Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot mobile phones, namely the CS8 and the CS5. While the former has been already spotted in FCC's courtyard about two weeks ago (and is also known as C905a), the latter has just surfaced into the wild, though it seems to be the North American version of the C903 Cyber-shot, which appeared first back in February.
We already reported that there would be a lot of activity in T-Mobile's lineup during the second half of the year, and it seems that even more is coming to its users, as the Sony Ericsson CS5 is now reported to head towards its network on July 8. In addition, the Sony Ericsson CS8 is expected to be launched on June 24, at least this is what CellPhoneSignal states, though there are no details available on the price tags the devices will come with.
A quick look at the specs list of the handsets shows that the Sony Ericsson CS5 will come with a 240 x 320 pixel resolution TFT display, which also supports 262.144 colors, a 5-megapixel photo snapper, 130MB of internal memory, Memory Stick Micro (M2) slot with support for up to 8GB of additional storage space, Stereo Bluetooth, and GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900, UMTS/HSPA 1700/2100, UMTS/HSUPA 1700/2100 connectivity, all in a body that measures 97.0 x 49.0 x 16.0 mm and weighs 95.0 gr. The handset is expected to come to the market in Glamour Red, Techno White and Lacquer Black color schemes.
As for the Sony Ericsson CS8, it should come with an 8.1-megapixel photo snapper, quad-band GSM/EDGE and UMTS/ HSDPA (1700/2100) 3G connectivity, Bluetooth Stereo, FM Radio, email and instant messaging capabilities, as well as GPS and Wi-Fi capabilities. The handset follows the Samsung Memoir when it comes to camera capabilities and should cost a little more than the Sony Ericsson CS5 when launched with T-Mobile.
