Sony Ericsson Shows Off Feature-Heavy Cell Phones

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Friday June 15, 2007 @07:25PM from the i'll-take-one-of-those-and-two-of-those-and dept.

An anonymous reader writes "As if waiting until the end of the month for the iPhone wasn't bad enough, Sony Ericsson has announced a set of super phones due to come out later this year. The Sony Ericsson K850i features an impressive 5-megapixel camera with auto-focus and xenon flash, while the W960i comes with a whopping 8GB of on-board memory, stereo Bluetooth, 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity, and a 3.2-megapixel camera. These were among several other new devices Ericsson unveiled recently, in hopes feature-heavy offerings will put it firmly back on the camera and music phone map."

Notably, for all that people complain about all those extras, basic models just never sell well when a manufacturer actually tries to listen to the complaints.
Oh really? What about the Nokia 1100, the best selling cellphone in the world with over 200 million sold? It's a very simple, reliable phone with no frills, the screen is even black and white.
