Thanks for posting those spy pics. Its hard to tell if its the real-deal or not - I'm torn 50/50 too although its a good effort if it is trying to 'lead us up the garden path'
The large screen makes it an attractive device as does the more conventional looking keypad. At 1st glance though it does remind me a bit of the k610i.

SE will announce two Walkman phones on January 6!! http://www.cellpassion.com/Default2.asp?id=353
Posted by goldenface
Great news if true. It holds true to the pattern of announcing phones in the first week of every year as has happened for the past 2 years.
Hmm, I wonder whats in store.
Posted by cellpassion
well afaik the announcement is confirmed... just waiting for more deets...
Posted by goldenface
@cellpassion
Great stuff! Only one phone was announced last year, the W880i; md-tier like the W810i previously. So one mid-tier and 1 higher-end maybe?
Posted by cellpassion
keeping my fngers crossed! who knows if it'd be the W980??
Posted by goldenface
I'm frightened to get my hopes up.
Fingers crossed indeed.
Posted by cellpassion
) couldn't agree more...

SE announced very soon some phones. One of them: Walkman phone with active flip.

@maximys
Is it going to look like that photoshop??
Posted by chombos1
nooooo.
i hope we don't see anything like that in SE portfolio...
it's so ugly.

Posted by bodeh6
That looks pretty real.
Posted by Maximys
@chombos1 We can see it very soon.
Posted by NightBlade
Totally Ericsson-retro style. Looks like a low-ender to me. (lack of JP8 and Walkman 2.0)
Posted by bodeh6
Maybe it is a replacement for the W200
Posted by Maximys
@NightBlade This phone is a low-ender. Looks like mediaplayer.
Posted by goldenface
Interesting design especially the active flip.
However, like Nightblade has already pointed out, the lack of A200 would be a let down as it would mean no HSPA speeds.

The thin flip design tells us about the future designs of
and what capabilities there are in terms of buttons on such thin flips
Posted by goldenface
Ah, so we should expect more flps from
for 2008?
Posted by Mizzle
Definitely, but whether they'll be like this one or ordinary flips, I don't know
Posted by goldenface
Excellent! Thanks for the info.
The P990i was the last flip so it will be great to see further variations on this form-factor especially if they are slim.
Posted by Maximys
P990i is a smartphone with flip. SE has no phone with active flip.

From justamp :
...at a Chinese site under their symbian phones section. The P3i is the same one I have posted in the past and even made an appearance at the Chinese Microsoft site. The P5 is the concept made by someone over at esato (beta-tester or SE_cz...can't remember). Now the interesting thing is that they even posted specs. We can also see the Motorola Z10 listed there too.
Posted by Mizzle
You have GOT to be kidding me
Posted by m-one
I wonder where the people get those flip stories from?
Posted by cellpassion
nice to see you around m-one... so u have any information about the two walkman phones that will be announced on the eve of CES?
Posted by SilveR.
that flip looks like more you a mp3 player and remind me also from the old Ericsson T39... but not mine style.. I would stay away from it at this moment..

More info about Z555. Z555 doesn't have sensors keys as W380, but have hide external display. Design very cool, but not similar to design of the W380. There are still radio. Available in two colours: Dusted Rose & Diamond Black.

neither the rest of w380, so that's good news, thanks

kinda disappointed, thought SE would make that leap over the hump in quality, design and style.

A list of codenames of phones that wait to be announced:
• Bella (P-Series) currently known as the P5i:
• Becky (Z-Series) will be the Z660i:
• Madonna (W-Series) could be W980i (W960i-successor)
• Deena (W-Series) will be announced after Jan. 20th together with Lai
Mid-End-Walkman phone. THX for the provided info @cellpassion
• Lai (K-Series/Cybershot) Low-end phone to come later in January
THX for the provided info @cellpassion
• Shio (K-Series/Cybershot) May this is the K850i-Facelift
As you can see there are two walkman phones in my list
I highly doubt that SE will incorporate flips in low and mid-end devices.
It's more than useless

I hope that the face lift is much better that the current K850i, as this phone is poop.
I hope that the build quality etc is soo much better too

Wasn't the Maria the W980i?

Where's Maria then ? and What is Maria !!
Posted by aydahm
nice information m-one...
now we know that there will be something like a K870i (lai),
but is shio the 7.2MP rumored phone?
Posted by cellpassion
Sorry to disappoint u guys but i hv been informed that Lai is a low-end phone... can't be the k850i successor... could be announced in the later part of january...

I don't believe too that K850i successor will be announced this time, we had K850i only from 3 months !!, I think we need at least another month or two for K850i successor announcement, specially with the new
strategy to reduce the time between Announcement and availbility of phones...
so, I'm expection K850i sucessor or update to be exact in Feb. or March with availibility in mid 08, that's if all dev. is ok not like K850i wich had several delays
[ This Message was edited by: Xajel on 2008-01-03 08:23 ]
Posted by cellpassion
i agree... but expect the Lai to be announced in January last week or so... and then we can safely expect to hear on the eve of GSMWorldCongress in Barcelona... That makes for 3 announcements in Jan-Feb!
Posted by goldenface
@Xajel
If the K850i had been released on schedule then its replacement wouldn't seem to be announced so soon after.
Thanks m-one for the info.
Posted by JC08
I really hope that se will have a good year and I hope they will alter their strategy a bit and target the higher end market more and bring in a few non ts UIQ phones!

Well, last year CeBIT was disappointing when it came to cellphones... there is hardly any gap between gsmworldcongress and CeBIT and since both happen in Europe, it is very unlikely that any brand will have new stuff to show off...

Still no smartphone? Still cosmetic changes only?

@Xajel
This is indeed a very good question
It is more a feeling that Madonna is the W980i. That's why I wrote "could"
But doesn't sound it nice : Bella Madonna
the two high-ender in one line
@cellpassion
THX for the info on Lai
Just edited my previous post
All we have to find out now is:
• Shio (K-Series/Cybershot) Maybe this one is the K850i-Facelift?
Apart from this we'll see loads of accessories: (Could appear on later announcements)
• An optical zoom kit for nearly all Sony Ericsson devices to enhance the cam capabilities.
• A protective case/box for the phone with extra battery, loudspeakers, and torch combined in one box.
• A mount for the handle bar to transport the phone while riding a bike
• Already told you about some speaker successors of the MDS-70 and MDS-80 with a 6,5" subwoofer. And a bigger shaped MBS-100.

K880 sounds better
Posted by cellpassion
Awesome information m-one! Btw you can add that even Deena would be a mid-end phone, i'm not sure about the indexing. Should have a better idea after Jan 20, when Deena and Lai are expected to be announced.
Posted by m-one
To sum all up:
A list of codenames of phones that wait to be announced (amended version):
• Bella (P-Series) currently known as the P5i:
• Becky (Z-Series) will be the Z660i:
• Madonna (W-Series) could be W980i (W960i-successor)
Another codename could be Maria.
• Deena (W-Series) will be announced after Jan. 20th together with Lai
Mid-End-Walkman phone. THX for the provided info @cellpassion
• Lai (K-Series/Cybershot) Low-end phone to come later in January
Also THX for the provided info @cellpassion
• Shio (K-Series/Cybershot) Maybe this is the K850i-Facelift?
I suppose Deena to be this one, since it hasn't been announced so far:
