Mobile-Review has a detail review of the upcoming W950i cell phone from Sony Ericsson. The next generation of Walkman music phone series offers a huge 4GB of internal memory, integrated RSD-enabled FM radio tuner, A2DP-enabled Bluetooth connectivity, and 13 hours of battery life. It runs on Symbian OS and comes with a ton of productivity software including Opera, QuickOffice, PDF Reader, and a PIM suite applications. Sony Ericsson W950i cell phone will be available in July 2006 for $740. Note than on the same month, Nokia will release their N73 cell phone too.
An excerpt from the review:
Evidently, that the model won’t become as popular as Sony Ericsson P990i (in terms of these particular segments, not the entire market), but it will reach a fair level of sales and increase offer due to being more highly tailored. The concept of providing big built-in storage makes this direction very promising, as the company can introduce models equipped with 6,8 and 10 Gb flash memory in a short space of time if required. Development of models, powered by hard drives is currently underway, but the market is more likely to get these models in next 18-20 months at best, because they are not mass products, and even more still have some considerable flaws, high development cost and following service.
