Sony Ericsson's W980 Walkman Phone In Q3 2008

Story posted on: May 16, 2008. Filed in: .

Sony Ericsson’s upcoming W980 was previewed last February during CEBIT 2008, and it’s slated for a Q3 release. Sony Ericsson is touting it to set a new standard for mobile phone music, especially with its unique audio enhancing technology, coupled with Sony’s “Walkman On Top” design. Walkman on top is essentially placing the common music oriented buttons on top of the flip covering the phone’s keypad.

Other new and mouth watering features include the W980’s built in FM transmitter, which allows it to share its music with nearby devices capable of receiving FM signals (read: almost every phone in the market). This does seem a lot better than the Zune’s “squirting” of music.

Other features of the W980 include:

• Accessing Walkman features from standby mode
• Preset equalizers
• SensMe, PlayNow, TrackID,
• Bluetooth Stereo
• 3.2 Megapixel camera
• Up to 8GB internal memory
