Sony Ericsson had a strong performance in sales recently - last Christmas they have reached the number one spot in some European markets, before Nokia. The reason was their strong line-up of Walkman and Cyber-shot camera - and the Sony Ericsson K770i is the latest in the long line of phones, due to hit the market this fall.
Sony Ericsson K770i is a lightweight 3G phone, which fell just 95 grams and 14.5 mm thick. There is a 3.2 megapixel camera with flash and autofocus, plus a 1.9 "240x320 pixels.
Because it is a Cyber-shot branded phone, the K770i comes with more than just a camera. There's a built-in "photo fix" application to adjust the images just does not quite properly. Over the K770i a stereo Bluetooth, FM radio, Memory Stick Micro expandable memory (256Mb included in the box), a media player, an email client, web browser and RSS reader. If you are familiar with previous Cyber-shot branded phones, then you will know what to expect.
Sony Ericsson is quoting an astonishing period of 10 hours when used on GSM, but the decline drops to 2.5 hours when used on a 3G network. In standby mode is a maximum of 16 days, which is impressive.
T seems to be a good phone, but apart from the style of the 1970's a little strange brown color, there is very little that makes the K770i stand out from the range of increasingly crowded Sony Ericsson phones. There is a lot .. Really a lot of Cyber-shot phones and Walkman range of Sony Ericsson and are in danger of stretching the brand too far. Yes, a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus and flash is pretty good, but the K810i and K850i are much better imaging and phones are much more worthy of the "Cyber-shot" branding.
However, the K770i is unlikely to disappoint, with its compact design and unfussy good looks. Expenct not enough people to go 'wow' when they see it - the K770i is far too understated to be a head-turner. Sony Ericsson K770i say that will be available in some markets, starting in the fall.
