Record videos in an instant on the Sony Ericsson S312. From spotting a celebrity on the street, to your friend's dancing in a club, the S312 allows you to capture these moments in two quick and easy steps.
Want to highlight the moment with a picture instead? The two megapixel camera can be used horizontally and with the help of the illuminated imaging shortcuts on the keypad you can change the settings and get the shot you want quicker. Not quite what you were after? Use the integrated Photo fix function to get the best picture quality in one step – picture taking has never been this easy!
"Capture life's spontaneous moments the easy way with the S312 and its instant video recording." said Quentin Cordier, Marketing business manager at Sony Ericsson. "The S312 also allows you to get organised and keep track of your hectic lifestyle by ensuring that you never miss another birthday or appointment again – store all you important dates, add reminders – then sit back and relax."
Sharing your pictures with friends is easier than ever before. Showcase them on the S312's two inch screen or forward to another mobile phone via Bluetooth. Share your pictures on the web with just a few clicks using picture blogging. Whatever the occasion post photos straight from the phone with just a few clicks – and don't forget to send the web address to others to check out your photography skills.
Take the hassle out of capturing daily moments:
- Dedicated video camera key – just one click away from recording your best moments
- Two megapixel camera – can be used horizontally to take picture perfect stills
- Illuminated imaging shortcuts – take great shots with ease
- Photo fix – enhance the picture quality and share with family and friends
- Picture blogging – upload your images to the web with just a few clicks
- Get organised – calendar, alarm and 1000 contact phone book
Sony Ericsson W205
Get the most out of your best music and favourite radio channels with Walkman player, FM radio and TrackID music recognition. The slider mobile phone comes with a complete package of entertainment features and the power to set up playlists to ensure you have the right music no matter the occasion. Share your tunes with friends via the speaker phone function – if you love your music they will too.
Need a change? Tune into the FM radio to listen to the latest news, music, sport commentary and talk shows. Heard something you like? Use TrackID to name that tune and artist, and you can even record a sample of a song from the radio to use as your new ringtone.
"The W205 is perfect for those who love portable music but have never had the Walkman phone experience." said Timo Maassmann, Marketing business manager at Sony Ericsson. "The W205 is a stylish slider phone allowing you to enjoy your music wherever you are – whether it's on the bus, at college or chilling in the park. You can also share more than music with the 1.3 megapixel camera. Capture the action in stills or video and send them to friends via MMS or via Bluetooth. The multiple phonebook function is an added bonus - share your phone with your family but keep your contacts separate from theirs."
