Sony Ericsson Launches First Android Walkman Mobile Phone W8

Sony Ericsson Launches First Android Walkman Mobile Phone W8

                                                                                                                                                                Fans of the Walkman phones will be pleased, as Sony Ericsson has just introduced the first Android-based Walkman device to its range.
Announcing the news quietly, the Sony Ericsson W8 phone has made an appearance on Sony Ericsson’s website without an accompanying press release.

As you’ll no doubt spot straight away, the W8 is basically the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 but with a Walkman logo. Features of the new Walkman phone include a 3 inch capacitive screen with 320 x 480 resolution, 3.2-megapixel camera, 3.5mm headphone jack, 600MHz processor, Android 2.1 OS, 168MB of RAM, and Timescape UI.
Like the X8, the W8 has the Human Curvature design, so it should fit comfortably in the palm of your hand. And because it’s a Walkman, the W8 comes with a MH410 stereo headset for enjoying music on the move.
The handset comes in a choice of 3 colours – Azure Blue, Metallic Red and Iconic Orange.

As a Sony Ericsson Walkman phone, the W8 follows in the long line of Walkman handsets. Since the flagship Walkman phone, the W995, was released, we’ve also had the Zylo and Spiro mobile phones. These two devices lack the “W” branding but feature the latest Walkman 4.0 player onboard.
The Sony Ericsson W8 is the first Android Walkman phone, and has the same 4-corner shortcuts on its home screen that both the Xperia X10 Mini and Xperia X8 have. These shortcuts can be customised with your favourite features and websites, making for instant access.
The W8 will be available in China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam from Q2 2011. There is no word on pricing yet so we’ll keep you posted.
