The New Sony Ericsson W205 Walkman Phone

Sony Ericsson unveiled their latest edition of music slider phone to the market today with the introduction of W205 Walkman. As with all their other Walkman Series, the W205 also features the Walkman player, Album art, Playlists, Shuffle mode, Loop mode, TrackID and FM radio.

A notable feature that’s worth mentioning is the Multiple Phone Books (one shared and four private phone books) allowing you to keep all your contacts organized, even if you and your family are using the same W205 Walkman phone.

As for its camera feature, there isn’t much to shout about. The W205 only comes with a built-in 1.3 megapixel camera for capturing photos or videos. Understandably, though, as the Sony Ericsson W205 is not a Cyber-shot Series. Sharing and transferring data or files is made easier via MMS or through its built-in Bluetooth capability.

The W205 Walkman supports GSM/GPRS/900/1800 and W205a supports GSM/GPRS 850/1900. W205 Walkman will be available in selected markets from June 2009 in its original Ambient Black colour. No pricing indication as yet.
