W880 (or the Ai) is really great.. It might look ugly, but when u get it in ur hands, then all ur frustations regarding the design is completely gone. It's very exclusive.
Yea, caus its a Walkman-phone, and thats why it doesnt have autofocus.
Posted by miguel19
I hope the final product will look great! How come the W800 have autofocus? The phone was 2 years ago!

It will, believe me.
Because that was before
had released the CyberShot-phones, and after the release of those, they wanted to split their phones up into seperate groups - photographing and music.
Posted by miguel19
Ohh. They also released phones like K618i with no autofocus.. Disappointing!
I hope they're going to improve next year! And more phones ;]

Yea, but I think that from now on, all K-series models will have autofocus - at least all C-series models WILL.
@all - i'm not gonna do the sofia photoshop anyways.
will show some new phones any day now, so i simply wouldn't do the trouble. I know sofia will be part of the next launch, and it's really, really near now.

about the w880i dont you think its REALLLLLLY ugly?????!!!!!!
the keypad is just discusting and the whole thing looks like SE made it just to add another handset to its portfolio otherwise only the speculated functionalities sounding great but the looks is just too offensive for all the designers in the mobile world especially when it comes to SE shouldnt thay have the best phone designers (second to nokia's lamoure designers)!!???????

@thecoolsha
Could you tell us if you know of course will Sofia have the Wow factor like the k750? Everyone are saying that k800 lacked the wow factor so maybe Sofia will have it?
Posted by miguel19
lol @ neo. it looks ugly for me too.. Looks like a cheap metal and ugly keypad..

I think it will.
However, I am totally in love with my K800s design - it's actually very sleek and very nice materials.

I love the k800 design too but most of the people aren't very happy about the design that SE used for it. That's why I'm asking about the wow factor.

is SOFIA going to have CCD or CMOS sensor?

[QUOTE]W880 = uglyQUOTE]
people also said that the T610 is ugly.
i can only appologise to wait for a jugment, until you have it in your hands
Posted by Mizzle
hi!
Sofia will have a bigger screen than K800. 0,2 inches bigger and scratch resistant.
The sensor will be CMOS, as far as I know. it's cheaper and is (in Sofias case) better than CCD.
I think Ai is much prettier and looks a hell lot more exclusive. W850 is pretty cool, too, but W880 gets my vote.
UIQ phones? yes, some will be announced soon.

is sofia going to be expensive ?? or at the same price of K800 when it was released?
do u think it's going to have WiFi?
Posted by nneo
im going to be verry anoying
so is there really going to be a "G" series or a real gaming mobile as or +- looks similar to the one photoshoped?? please answer me
thank you in advance
im a fan of gaming oriented phones especially if you can use it all the time (not only for gaming) in landscape mode

"The sensor will be CMOS, as far as I know. it's cheaper and is (in Sofias case) better than CCD."
Interesting, as according to Mobile-Review, the sensor should be the same as the I-Mobile 902 one.........which is CCD.........
Posted by Mizzle
Sofia is going to be quite expensive, yes. probably a bit more than k800.
No, it's not going to have WiFi.
It's most likely that there will come a gaming phone, but it's not for sure. if it doesnt, then the UI will be able to switch from landscape to vertical. Well, in one of the concepts it is.
Really? didn't know that, then has been some MAJOR changes within the last months or three. I was told that it would be one of the newest CMOS sensors on the market. Well, then they have apparently changed their plans.
happy new years everybody!!
Posted by Aware
Hmmm, thanks for that reply.......Eldar reviewed the I-Mobile, he is normally good with his information..........I was just hoping for a CCD sensor, as
haven't used one since the S700(such an awesome phone, still miss mine), and I haven't yet seen a CMOS which is better than the equivalent(albeit more expensive) CCD.......

That's how the W880 looks like? It looks ugly like sin. The keypad looks damn painful to press and doesn't seem to match with the design. The brushed metal look looks damn ugly as well and what's with that odd placement of the cellphone chain hole? I would take the W850i over this ANY DAY. At least that looks like a decent phone than this mashed up phone. Looks like a mix of a M600/W950i back side with P990i keys with W810i's navigation pad and to top it off with a ugly silver brushed aluminum fascia. Hope the black one looks better.

@thecoolsha
sorry i forgot to say that the desigen you made is over the top if the final product will be something like that i could bet that se will jump from 4th to 2nd place in sale due to all the other products to come but this would be like a flagship for se in 2007
really good photoshope work man congrats

mega news Sony Ericsson buyed f****ng Nokia. Nokia is bankrupt, because of a firework crash, the stocks are down.

@miguel19
The Ai (W880) is way too thin to even house an AF camera anyway. It's physically impossible at the moment.
And AFAIK, the W770 will have an AF 2MP camera.
That's this one, the K770 sister:
@driftmania
We've had tons of pictures for a while
Just check the first post. And the more recent pictures are of the black Ai.
@nneo
That's just a concept of what the phone's form factor is going to be. thecoolsha has stated that the design is very much like the Sidekick.
There's no real point for the K800 to have Wi-fi. It's not a smartphone, and it's not a feature that the target audience will use regularly. That's why smartphones get it because it's more of a high end business feature.
P.S. If people just visit daily and read back on the new posts in this thread, they'll get many of the answers that they're seeking. Or even easier is to just read the first post. All the new information should be posted in blue.
Posted by driftmania
The black is much better, can't see the ugly parts that much.

@nneo - thanks pal
Posted by cristiano
this is what sneff said in www.se-world.info
(The W880i will come exactly the same in the two variants on the market - and the pictures are genuine.
SE will present in the year 2007 further “metallic” devices and its Portfolio in the future rather in this direction will align.

@cristiano
I guess that confirms what we already know
Goldenface posted an article by MR a while back with a similar description.
Posted by Mizzle
I too, can confirm this. 2007 is in the name of metallics and such.
Posted by cristiano
is sofia going to be metalic???

And I think it will look totally wicked on Sofia.

Do you know when can we expect some major announcement from SE? I remember you said that it's just a matter of days but could you tell us something more about the announcement date?

It's said on the first page - around the 5th of January, I think. So it's very soon.

do u know any specs about the upcoming UIQ in Q1??

Actually I'm not sure if there will come a new UIQ. A new UI for the "basic"-phones will, but UIQ? Doubt it - UIQ 3 has just arrived, and I dont think
will create a new one already.
Posted by mustafabay
Doesn't
do announcements on Thursday? That would be the 4th
Posted by cristiano
@thecoolsha
no , i mean a new mobiles with UIQ3 not anew uiq (sorry about that)

Actually k800/k790 was announced at Tuesday so were most of the phones so more realistic announcement date is... tomorrow!!
But I think it's highly unlikely to make an announcement on the second day of the new year but maybe it's
new market strategy who knows

Now I don't anyone who'd buy a walkman phone with a package like that. Bluetooth and 256MB is a must. If this is true I won't be buying it.

Maybe for you its stupid but surely there will be people who will find it very good alternative for buying simple phone for ringing and messaging and buying separate mp3 player (I'm talking here about those shitty mp3 player's for few bucks) and I think that's why SE releases these phone. So I don't think that releasing such a phone is a bad idea. They just want their phones to be available for those with smaller wallets if you know what I mean.

the next wave of SE jpn announcements will take place in mid Jan
Jan 12 for cdma 2000 1x handsets, jan19 for EVDO handset (expect a smaller W44S)
Jan17 for WCDMA fashion handset<< this will give some hint to what the london boys are doing

@xumedo
You are talking japanese announcements only, right? Because there seems to be a belief that there will be an announcement this week and I sure hope its true.
