Sony Ericsson rumoured to be launching N93 style handset
5 February 2007 by axxxr Sony Ericsson's plan is to move away from the standard “candybar" format for their latest camera phone and could adopt a design along the lines of Nokia’s N93 model.
A patent filing from 2003 shows a device strikingly similar to the N93 (pictured below) with claims that it will have a multi directional hinge allowing the phone to be used in a variety of configurations. The patent was filed before Nokia developed the N93 so it is surprising that there has not been any legal action by boys at Sony Ericsson. source:mad4mobilephones
Comments On 6 Feb 14:55 Richard wrote There is no twist function I can see in either of these handets. There is the ability to "flip back" to have either surface be the exterior of the handset, however. On 6 Feb 14:38 antichrist wrote the ability to be used in a variety of configurations allowed by the multi directional hinge is USELESS!!! On 6 Feb 06:56 Ranjith wrote n93 has a nice catchy design,but too bulky...hope SE makes a compact one!! On 6 Feb 06:08 rehamer wrote its more of the bravia design in japan. On 6 Feb 05:20 p990i wrote they are only the same in flip style after that its unique.
