When will they announce a Satio successor and a W995 replacement? They did it this time last year will it be back to July now?
They seem committed to touch technology so is this the last ever W995 type phone? |

The success of the W995 in the UK shows there is still demand for high-end feature phones but SE seriously lost out on the full TS craze and is only just now becoming a player in that market.
So I guess high-end feature phones might be taking a back seat for a while and we'll have to make do with the ones that were announced ten days ago.

@se80: +1... Yesterday i was thinking about the same thing, i would love a replacement for my W995 (in the good sense of the word)... i just love the phone, a bigger screen, a better camera (Xenon flash hopefully) and thats it....
I hope SE wont stop making mid/high end phones with buttons

SE has been making the wrong decisions since they concentrated on low end phones and abandoned cutting edge technology at the zenith of their image as a company with advanced offerings. That totally turned people off. Now they're back as infants in the high end device segment that they've abandoned for a while and looking to compete with the big boys, abandoning what they're finally getting right, feature phones like W995. Such grave errors they're making

Phones such as the w995 is where Sony Ericsson's most popular in the market. I would like to see the successor to that phone but i do wish Sony Ericsson would up the screen resolution.
Phone?? What phone?? |

I mean in their mid priced phones like the w995 the standard QVGA is looking dated now. Nokia & some others put higher resolution in their screens on some of their cheaper phones like the Xpress Music range. Five,eight & twelve mega pixel images look horribly blurry on QVGA screens

They can still put big features in non smart phones like a 12MP camera, 3" screen, 16GB cards and memory like the Samsung Innov8, better video recording, good music features, Java apps, proper flash support.
I think they are all just scared of the Iphone. No matter how many touch screen phones there are people may still want a button phone or a semi touch like like Tocco Ultra.
Releasing nice feature phones with 5Mp cameras is pointless from SE. Give us ones with Wi-fi and good cameras mid range to top end. If you ask me many of the features in smart phones are for "geeks" now they are shifting units but some of them are too complicated for the average user. Why should high spec just be for smart phones?
I think SE won't release a good feature phone incase it outsells one of there new touch models. I went from a touch screen phone back to a C905 a year and a half ago and wouldn't hesitate to do it again!

How many LG non touch phones are there now? Last one I remember was a 5Mp slider..looked great but we never seen anything more like that. They decided to flood the market with cheap phones to make touch the standard.
Mobile phone companies plot is too mass flood the market with mid, low, and high end touch models..taken on Apple and make us buy lots of apps ££££
It's sad because Java is still good...back in 2004 flash websites were the big thing now most are HTML with limited flash right? Same for flash in phones. Anybody who wants touch screen gets one..you can buy phones like the Viewty for years.
I hear many people buying touch phones as there's little other choice, given the choice they would go for a feature phone. Course the industry works by "foce feeding" the market...bit like the 3D thing not actually better just an alternative. Very few touch phones are better unless it's an Iphone or Blackberry or HTC something with heavy features. LG Chocolate with a 4" screen?? come on who needs that you would be as good with a notebook PC.
Big advertising budget and you can sell any old tat.

Honestly ; I was anxiously expecting a "Vivaz"-like model with the Clear Audio that I have in my w995, even im,proved,touchscreen,good battery,great screen,...you know, exactly what you are saying
An evolution of w995
I suppose I will have to wait longer
Even the X10 looks promising but with no music quality--at least it is impossible to read in the specifications.
I am a bit disppointed . I as so sure that in my city, Barcelona, SE would present an exciting new "Walkman model"
We can always wait for the users of Vivaz and X10,X10 mini to give us their honest opinion about the sound.

Since SE ditched Walkman and Cybershot I think it spells the end of camera phones and walkmans as they focus on other features. |
