Sony Ericsson’s Xperia Pureness Gets Handled

by Elias Chiddicks on December 31st, 2009

The life of the wealthy gadget/attention whoring buyer is a difficult one, we surmise. First there were all those expensive Nokia’s, and that was complicated enough what with all those confusing numbers (8800, 7070, 7500, etc.). Then Motorola got in on the action with the Aura and that brilliant circular screen, and now Sony Ericsson [...]

Sony Ericsson Equinox Shines At T-Mobile October 28th

by Rob on October 27th, 2009

The Sony Ericsson Equinox is a flip phone with an interesting twist of lighting that will be available exclusively at T-Mobile starting October 28th. The main attraction here is the bizarre lights that claim to “light up your life, literally” and the inclusion of an FM Radio.
At the grand-opening of a T-Mobile retail store on [...]

This phone is bound for popularity but as of now will only be an option for European tech [...]

Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness Passes FCC

by Rob on October 3rd, 2009

This thing is pretty much pure insanity. With a candy bar body that looks like a caterpillar and a see through screen that makes web browsing or multimedia viewing impossible, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness has one goal – unfortunately we haven’t quite figured out what that goal is yet. Either way it just passed [...]

by Rob on September 28th, 2009

Since early this year, mobile fans have been eagerly anticipating the Sony Ericsson Satio which was introduced at trade shows at the beginning of 2009 such as Mobile World Congress.

by Elias Chiddicks on September 24th, 2009

Lest you get too excited about Zune phones and cool new iPhone features like picture messaging, we thought we would bring you this little number:  Another middle of the road flip from Sony Ericssion, the Equinox. The most  notable feature of this phone is its 3.2 megapixel camera, and slightly unique looking front. Other than [...]

Vodaphone to Intro SE’s X2 and Samsung Corby

by Elias Chiddicks on September 23rd, 2009

Oh Europe, we are almost as permanently jealous of you as we are of Asia and all the good handsets you guys get. Vodaphone especially is no slouch at getting the hottest feature phones and smartphones to consumers pretty quickly. The trend continues with the announcement that the Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 and Samsung Genio [...]

Sony Ericsson Headphones Are So Extra

by Rob on September 21st, 2009

This accessory is unnecessarily extra. It is over the top for no reason. Calling it out of the ordinary would be a huge compliment but overstated – these things are nothing more than pretty pointless and a gimmick at best. Today Sony Ericsson issued a press release announcing Motion Activated Headphones MH907. I don’t feel [...]

by Rob on September 21st, 2009

[UPDATE: embedding disabled - looks like you have to view the video at theunwired.net directly]
Earlier this morning we saw some blurry pictures of the Xperia X3 being unboxed. Now, in somewhat of a switcheroo, we have the pleasure of seeing the Xperia X2 get the unboxing treatment. It just comes in a plain white box [...]

Sony Ericsson Mistakes Gimmick Headphones For Revolution

by Rob on September 16th, 2009

Yesterday we noticed Sony Ericsson preparing a HUGE music announcement. That’s what THEY called it. But we just got wind of what it is or could be and let us be the first to tell you it is FAR from revolutionary and more of a temporary gimmick than anything else. Drum roll……… headphones that automatically [...]

Xperia X2 Priced Around $875

by Rob on September 16th, 2009

It is pretty amazing how powerful and affordable smartphones are these days. When you get an Android Phone, iPhone, WebOS Phone or BlackBerry you can get an incredibly capable device for $200 or much less when contract and rebates are all said and done. So why Sony Ericsson think their Xperia X2 priced at $875+ [...]

New Sony Walkman S-series

by Shawn Brown on September 11th, 2009

Some shots were posted from the Sony Dealer Convention 2009 in Japan showing an apparent new Sony Walkman S-series. The S740 models don’t seem much different other than a very stylized new look and nicer looking earbuds.

There is really no hard info on the hardware specs or anything else related to this series but at [...]

Sony Ericsson Aino Gets Aiyes From FCC

by Rob on September 4th, 2009

The Sony Ericsson Aino has just gotten measured and plastered on the FCC website for approval. We’d seen some of this information before, but this time around we get a nice little picture to poke its head out of all those tests:

It looks like this bad boy is going to come to the US with [...]

Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness Insanity

by Rob on September 3rd, 2009

The original Sony Ericsson Xperia was rumored a LONG time ago and took FOREVER to come out. Then Sony Ericsson comes along and announces 2 new Xperia phones in 2 days: yesterday we saw the Xperia 2 and today we’re seeing a wacky and insane extension to the brand – the Xperia Pureness. A pretty [...]

SE’s XPERIA X2 Made Official, Release Scheduled for Q4

by Elias Chiddicks on September 3rd, 2009

The X1, the first of Sony Ericsson’s new XPERIA series, was a trouble child. With some hardware issues directly related to the all important QWERTY keyboard, and a UI that had far too many bugs and hiccups, not to mention a rather high price tag, it wasn’t exactly the runaway flagship success the company was [...]

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 will be announced this upcoming week according to rumors on the SEMC Blog. They say that they have “confirmed” the information but with whom we have no clue. Below is a picture of the Xperia X1 so we’re assuming the X2 will look similar and hoping it looks even better [...]

Sony Ericsson Cell Phone Starts Oven

by Rob on August 20th, 2009

What is a cell phone these days if it doesn’t have 3G, Wi-Fi and remote-pie making capabilities? A CBS News report shows a video where Andrei Melnikov’s Sony Ericsson phone somehow automatically sets his oven to “broil” whenever someone calls it.

I have absolutely no idea how or why this happens, but it is kind of [...]
