Missing out on your share of Sony Ericsson concept phones? It’s been quite a week for SE lovers as it seems to be raining concepts from everywhere, specially those bearing the famous green brand. Check out Sony Ericsson C712 below, designed by Not_me from the Esato board:

I have to say that I like the white C712 concept more, but it’s the keys beneath the display I don’t quite fancy. They seem too close to the call and endcall buttons. I’m sure you’ll press those by mistake, at some point while using the device.

A hot spring weekend’s coming up and it would be a good idea to give the Walkman series a new go, as seen by the creative eyes of sunils120 from the Esato board. Sony Ericsson W230i is your average Walkman concept phone, that should come in a pretty decent price and mid class features.

- Walkman 2.0 Media Player
- VGA Camera with 8x Digital Zoom

Before we start ranting about how people get their hopes up whenever they see a new concept phone, you’ll have to find out that the Tooth Fairy doesn’t exist. And even if she did, she wouldn’t believe that the concept from the image below is real and neither do we.

Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot G905i, Black Beauty

19/04/2009 21:29 par slaytane

Esato board user Razec delivers a great concept phone, with a 5.1 MP camera, the Sony Ericsson Cyber-shot 905i, one promising cameraphone. Its design reminds me of some of the PSP Phone concepts combined with a W52S.

While it’s nice to notice those rounded edges, you should know that there’s a minor mistake too: the Call/End keys are reversed (the left one should be green and the right one should be red). Designers are human after all and Razec promises more pics to come in the following days, as soon as cleans up his messy desktop.

Sony Ericsson Smartphone Concept Is Not an April’s Fools Joke

19/04/2009 21:28 par slaytane

Esato board user sunils120 makes our day brighter with a Sony Ericsson smartphone concept, that reminds me of the P3i design I’ve shown you a couple of days ago. Well, it’s definitely a P series phone, with a pretty big touchscreen and music controls on the front side.

Something tells me that there’s a keypad underneath that touchscreen, unless we’re dealing with one of Sony Ericsson’s iPhone rivals, but that’s highly unlikely. Sunils120 has let us know that there will be more pics, so we’ll let you know as soon as he posts them.

New Sony Ericsson Walkman Concept: W680i

19/04/2009 21:26 par slaytane

Summer’s coming and there’s the usual need for music phones to entertain us on the beach, at least till we get the call to get back at the office. One such musical companion is Sony Ericsson W680i, pertaining to the Walkman series, but don’t fret, as it’s only a concept phone right now, designed by sunils120, Esato board user.

As the designer states, this isn’t the final version and we’ll be seeing some updates, but let’s check out the specs for now:

Sony Ericsson P3i, Photoshopped Beauty (2008 vs Leak vs 2007)

19/04/2009 21:24 par slaytane

Esato and Sony-Ericsson-Cz.com show us the latest version of the Sony Ericsson P3i, but this time we know that it’s a Photoshopped concept phone, instead of the old leaked image. In case you didn’t know, P3i is some sort of follow-up to the P1i. It features a touchscreen and I’m sure it’ll include Wi-Fi, 3G, maybe HSDPA and a 5 MP camera.
 
The resemblance between the P3i and P1i is clear, specially when it comes to the design and you should notice that this new version of the P3i concept features a touchpad and a couple more keys beneath the display, unlike the original full touchscreen concept. Also, it seems we’ll be given a taste of Windows Mobile on this handset, but that’s pretty hard to believe at this point.

Here’s the first version of the P3i concept phone, that surfaced last summer and below it, yet another attempt at designing the perfect SE phone:

Sony Ericsson Mystery Concept Phone… Any Ideas

19/04/2009 15:37 par slaytane

Just stumbled upon a Sony Ericsson mystery concept phone on the Motorolafans forums and I’ve been wondering what series it could belong to. It’s certainly not a Walkman, nor it is a Cyber-shot, but could it be part of the “P” series? What do you make of it?

Interestingly enough, it’s got a sliding QWERTY keyboard and a virtual keypad plus a camera and a couple of extra buttons that are surely used for multimedia features. Also, the phone seems to use a neat photo editing app, P1100 FotoViewer 3.1 if I’m not mistaking.

Any idea about this concept? I’d love it if the designer, blackflip51 would tell us what handset this is.

Sony Ericsson K950i Bravia Phone Concept

19/04/2009 15:34 par slaytane

Muhammad-Oli from the Esato Board shows us the future of Sony Ericsson phones through this beautiful K950i Bravia. It features a pretty big touchscreen, landscape mode and that Bravia branding which pretty much describes the handset’s use. It’s a “cinema phone” if you want or a handset that will be loved by folks who like to watch high definition movies on the go.

Of course, there’s the iPhone, the PSP or the Nokia N95 8GB to choose instead, but would trade those for Sony’s famous Bravia branding? Notice the multimedia controls on the phone’s left side, as they show that this Sony Ericsson is designed for landscape viewing of movies and photos.

Keep in mind that K950i Bravia is a slider and it features a decent keypad, so you won’t be relying on that touchscreen alone.

Sony Ericsson W990 is A Poor, Poor Design

19/04/2009 15:31 par slaytane

Since we’re focusing on concept phones, there’s the occasional bad concept design we run into, made in a hurry, using Photoshop and elements from previously launched phones. We’re dealing with the perfect example of such a poor attempt, in the next image, seemingly showing a Sony Ericsson W990:

The bottom of this phone is actually the top of a Sony Ericsson W950i, as stated by an Esato board member, while the touchscreen + Windows Mobile is surely a combination not fit for the classic SE phone. Better luck next time, to the author of this design!
