A good example of this is Sony's reluctance to make a netbook because they "thought it unnecessary". But a little further down the track when netbook popularity exploded, Sony release the VAIO P.
Hey guys, I'm a long time reader here and am a big fan of SE. Just thought I'd make my first post to clear this misconception. Sony have been making ultraportables for quite some time under the Vaio brand name, even before the advent of the Intel Atom. i.e. they had netbooks before there were netbooks. The vaio P is an extension of that formula. It caters to an entirely different market segment compared to the cheap netbooks by Asus, Acer etc. And I can see why Sony is reluctant to call it by a name associated with cheap stuff.
The processing power is a moot point, really. Portability, style and that gorgeous screen are what they're banking on in the Vaio P. a difference of 300 MHz on a device primarily used for browsing/ chatting and watching movies isn't drastic . It's similar to the whole Vertu argument, in a way.
---
That being said, let's get to the point. I had asked this question elsewhere and maybe the experts here can throw some light into this:
Why isn't SE (or for that matter, any major manufacturer) use Windows CE as the template and develop Panels as the complete UI for it? I mean, look at the Meizu M8. It does exactly this and does it wonderfully! Think about it: One can get all the benefits of Windows Mobile without having to look at the drab menus! isn't that the best of both worlds?
I hope one of the insiders here can answer that.

Well what's the point of that graphics chip if it can't run java applications very well because of it's nonstandard navigation? I'd rather choose A200 phones even without those high performance chips, at least even though they weren't touchscreens, they can run almost all java applications in existence with unmatched speed (refer to M-R reviews of SE phones and see how SE had simultaneously blown the competition in benchmarks)

I am sure this X, if SE really will announce it, wont be a successor to X1. It is another XPERIA. Just like the case of Nokia N71, which was not N70's successor at all. |

Can we expect a W980 replacement in the near future?
I mean a high end flip phone. Up till now, most rumours are for slide or bar phones. Any top of range flip being announced shortly?

not a sound processor but digital signal processor, sound processing may be one of many purposes. in mobile phones mostly used for sound and video decoding. DSP is often better solution than CPU + software because of many reasons

There's some information about the design of one of the yet unannounced SE phones in a M-R review about new accessories.
http://mobile-review.com/acce[....]review/accessories-guide.shtml
In the part describing Sony Ericsson PV-740 there is this sentence:
"Мой личный фаворит на ближайшее время – она очень маленькая, очень красивая, наконец, при создании дизайнеры, такое впечатление, постоянно смотрели на XPERIA и еще на один аппарат (скоро узнаете, какой именно). "
Approximate translation:
"My personal favorite for the near future (PV-740) - it is very small, very beautiful, and it seems that in it's creation the designers were constantly looking at XPERIA and also at one other device (soon you will know which one)."
So this new handset should have a similar design both to X1 and to this bluetooth headset.

You're right but I like to see a touchscreen mobile full screen

if you don't like the LG KM900 Arena maybe you are more interessted in the HTC Touch Max 4G
p.s. a model doesn't have to look pretty, it's just a person you use for PR

Well then this whole thing is hilAREious. You guys wait 6 months begging for hikaru leaks and when they come throw tomatos at SE complain that everything they do is dull and that they are going down hill. best part is that your expecting a do it all phone with gps or large screen or so and so. Well thats why there is this thing called the market. Everything has to by split up and made by different companies so every caqn be rich. To do so some companies produce this and this others so and so. With me so far? Good. So then if you had a phone that could do everything and then every phone would do so then the market will crash and all the companies would go bankrupt and then all thats left is the big wig cell phone companies. For that to happen it would be bad as more unemployment would hurt the economy further. So please you guys while your waiting for the jesus phone think about how really logic it is to do so.
Also you guys are waiting for this stuff like it is sony or something. if you didnt see the ericsson thats why. That there means that its part of the sony company but only through the cybershot and walkman brand. The phones will become quality though when sony says screw this you guys are producing the worst crap ever and that needs to change so we are buying your brands. Now some of you might say well thats not long but i can see that happening in a while. Say 5 years and then get your jesus phone you philistines. Bash me all you want cause i know i am right. |
