It's not Cyber-shot flagship, so QVGA-video is normal.

P.S. Release of this handset will be not in Q1, 2009.

Sounds like a walkman version of the C905. These days, I think we should be seeing more touchscreens from SE. But its still very good, still better than N*kia, just not as much choice as Samsung, or LG. So anyway, announcement is on Monday no? Would be interesting to see if this mobile surfaces or not. Im still far more excited about the X1!

Indeed. That in and of itself is pretty interesting, but it still doesn't quite do it for me. More than likely it'll be A2 and therefore won't be touchscreen.

Dunno. I need more info, of course.

Yeah I agree. I like SE alot, and their software is indeed very good, but other than the diminishing UIQ handsets, and the so-far one-off X1, theyre all very very similar if not the same on the software side. I'm bored with A1 and A2. Half the reason why I want the X1 more is for the change. Add to that the customizability, which you have with A1/2, but within certain parameters (e.g. how much flash you can include in a theme). Its really time they made something with more of a buzz to it, IMO, something thats more than just a feature. I suppose this is where apple can claim dominance in the market (but they can also claim inferiority in almost any other aspect anyway). I personally would really like to see SE come up with their own answer to the samsung tocco, which is a brilliantly positioned handset.

- Walkman 4.0 Software
- "Clear Audio"with "PHF" technology
- Extra Player keys

- different colours

quote from SEworld: "Nach dem was ich gehört habe würde ich es in einem etwas ausgefallenderen Design erwarten..."
>> "From that, what I've heard, I would expect a crazy design

Greetings



The features are disappointing! What's the essence of putting 8 megapixel cam without xenon flash and with poor video recording. Add the 2.6 screen -that's total bull.....

What SE needs know is a device that can do it all! Is it very hard to do?

Hmmmm. Something is wrong with the spec stated for Hikaru:

As far as know the screen will be larger eighter 3.0 or 3.2 inch with WVGA and 16mil colors.

The video recording should be VGA with 30 f/sec.

So this Walkman slider isn't Hikaru at all? That's good news. That would mean this "W905" is just the C/P phone of the C905. Or it could mean the "leaked" specs are simply wrong.

whats the use of eight megapixels if videos are recorded at qvga?!??

even mid range nokia phones can do vga @30fps these days.. so why not a high range se phone????
