SE Launches 2 New Mobiles for Japan Market
By: Shayne Rana   |   Jan 30, 2008

Sony Ericsson has launched two new handsets, but unfortunately it seems they're only meant for the Japanese market. In that case you may wonder why we’re so concerned. Our logic is that perhaps we could show the company that a country like ours that's one of the (if not THE) mobile friendliest markets on the planet should be getting snazzy mobiles like these too.

Sony Ericsson W61S

The two handsets are the W61S (slider) and the W62S (flip). The W61S is loaded with a 5.1 megapixel autofocus camera and falls under the Cyber-shot umbrella. It’s equipped with a CMOS sensor and aside from 3x optical zoom it uses Sony’s ‘Exmor’ technology from the Pro Alpha DSLR. The camera boasts Kaokime Lite (auto-adjusts brightness on face detection for ideal facial tones), Smile Shutter Lite (auto-releases shutter on detecting smiles) and anti-shake abilities.

As if that weren't enough, the W61S has a large 2.8 inch WVGA display with a resolution of 400 x 800 pixels that apparently uses Reality MAX technology as in Sony’s Bravia HD TVs. WOW!! Aside from all that (as if all that’s not enough to make you want to fly to Japan), it has other usual features such as Bluetooth, GPS, TV-out and external memory support via microSD cards (Not M2?)

Sony Ericsson W62S

Next up is the W62S flip phone equipped with a 2.7 inch WQVGA display that sports a resolution of 240 x 432 pixels. There doesn’t seem to be too much information provided about this particular phone other than the display size and the fact that it will also support external memory up to 2GB via microSD cards, and that it will have a 2 megapixel camera.

Prices haven't been announced as yet, but the W61S will be out this April in Spectrum Pink, Shadow Black and Prism White, while the W62S should be out a bit earlier, in March, in Silver/Leather, Black/Rose and White/Lime.

sony want to keep bifurcated in mobile unlike nokia n73 which is a music phone as well as camera phone using carl zeis, but sony says if you want music buy w series, if you want to take pictures , buy k series, why do they do this, they loose in market if they dont combine features.

You are right. Sony has seldom displayed market wisdom -may be - because of overconfidence. If your comments are correct regarding features, then W61S would be really hot favourite here. They would be foolish not to introduce here immediately.
