Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman is an Android with Great Music Features

May 13, 2011 - PRLog -- The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman goes a major way into re-establishing Sony Ericsson is a major player in the high-end smartphone industry after the company has been slightly less successful in the last few years. The main reason for the lack of success within the industry has been due to the failure of the touch screen models from Sony Ericsson. This was due to the lack of the wow factor from the phones, which was usually present in the previous phone Ericsson phones. Now, it is back again with the Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman, which has been recently announced by the company.

The incredible success of the touch screen phones from other manufacturers has been mainly due to the incredible options that are also associated with the phone. It is now present in the Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman in the form of the music player support in the best possible way. It will be supporting the 3 inch capacitive touchscreen display present in the phone. It offers a resolution of 480 x 320 pixels, which might be on the downside little bit. However, given the size of the screen, it is going to be very difficult to notice any imperfections in the screen. The presence of the Walkman title in the phone suggests that it is going to be as good as the previous phones in this department if not better.

It could be better than the previous phone is due to the availability of two different forms of memory. The internal memory offers space for 128 MB of content, while the expandable memory option can support up to 16 GB. Even though the phone does not come with any memory card as standard, purchasing one is certainly not a very difficult at all as the prices of memory cards have been falling like a rock.

The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman will also be offering a decent 3.15 megapixel camera, which might not be offered with a number of features, but still can take high-quality images with a little bit knowledge of taking pictures. The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman uses a 600 MHz processor, which is being used in the phone to run the Android 2.1 operating system. It is not known whether the phone will receive the update to the 2.3 version, which has been released recently. Given that the balance between performance and the latest versions operating system is very difficult to achieve, the usage of the Android 2.1 version is certainly not going to be criticised. The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman will be offering three different colours, Azure, Orange and Red. The Sony Ericsson W8 Walkman uses a 1200 mAh battery for increased battery life in company with the competition. As a result of it, the phone offers up to a day of music playback on a full charge of battery. It is a statistic that can't be matched by any of the phone in te competition. This Sony Ericsson phone will be available within the end of this year.
