Everybody seems to think that DoCoMo launches only 1 new Premini the "Sport" versionbut this is not correct as 4 new Premini phones see the daylight.

In our defense, the other 3 new Preminis don't look anything like the original, although one is pink with a heart camera, so yeah, you'd think my fluffy sensors would have shivered. Nonetheless, here they are in all their tiny glory, the "Prosolid," the "Music PORTER," (with FM tuner and MemoryStick Duo slot," and the "Le Chiffon," (the pink one).

I`m glad none of them are coming to the UK. They are ugly! I cant even see women buying a pink phone with a heart shaped camera.

Thats because we are way behind japan in technology culture...A lot of the handsets released in japan would never really take off in europe or elsewhere.Plus the investment needed to market the various models would be too great. [addsig]

You Europeans are complaining about how cool Japan's phones are...and I have to pay an arm and a leg for the phones that Europeans are getting for free when they sign a contract! The US cell phone market is CRAP!

I just looked at more pics of the premini versions, and as contrary to what I first thought, they are pretty cool, the music porter looks like a gameboy sp, which is cool. The prosolid is also quite sexy.

The naming of each handset reflects their respective design concepts. The "S" of "premini-S" indicates "Second", "Sports", Soft taste" and "Sophisticated". "prosolid" is derived from a combination of the words "professional" and "solid". "Music PORTER" is a combination of "Music+Porter", meaning to carry music, and "Lechiffon" is from "chiffon", the French word for soft pastry. The model numbers for the "premini-S", "prosolid", "Music PORTER" and "Lechiffon" are SO213iS, P213i, D253iWM and P253iS respectively.

Main features of the new handsets include a sloped keypad for ease of use ("premini-S"), a 16.7mm-thin aluminium and magnesium case ("prosolid"), and an internal FM radio tuner and music playback ("Music PORTER"). The artifical leather cover of the "Lechiffon", which cannot be removed, imparts a soft feel (apparently!).

Two of the handsets have in-built cameras - the "Music PORTER" (0.32 megapixel CCD) and the "Lechiffon" (0.31 megapixel CMOS). The o­nly handset that accepts external memory is the "Music PORTER", which comes with a 64MB Memory Stick DUO. The communication speeds of the handsets are 9.6kbps up/down for the "premini-S" and 9.6kbps up/28.8kbps down for the remaining handsets.

The prosolid is fantastic. So thin! Waw.

The others have at least the virtue of being something completely different.

Impressive.
