Sony Ericsson Paris - what is it?
There's been a lot of speculation as to what the Sony Ericsson Paris actually is, but what's known for definite is that it is going to be Sony Ericsson uber-killer-mega-hero phone for 2008. Final specs are, it's fair to say, a bit thin on the ground, but there have been persistent rumours from people who state they've tested it. Specifically, they say it's a slider with a touchscreen and a QWERTY keypad, has got a 40x480 VGA screen, has a 5 megapixel camera, has built-in GPS, and is based around the newest Symbian interface, UIQ3.3. Assuming all that is true, it seems likely that what we're soon to be seeing is the next phone in near-legendary 'P-series' of Sony Ericsson smartphones, that began waaaaaaaaaaaay back when, with the P800.
If that's true, it means that what it'll actually be, on release, is the Sony Ericsson P5. Given that I have a Sony Ericsson P1 now, and have been waiting to hear about the P5 since last November, you may well understand why I'm... a tad excited!
Sony Ericsson P5 - showing other mobile phones how it's done
Now, I admit it's a bit silly getting so excited over a mobile phone that hasn't even been officially announced yet, let alone released, but it really does look like it could be the coolest phone I've ever seen. That list of features is suitably stunning (and the newest version of UIQ is just amazing), and it looks the business. Look around the edges of the phone, and you'll se metal accents, and metal edging, which seems to be in a muted, menacing gunmetal colour.
Oh, but it won't be cheap. I can guarantee that, right now. Sure, there are loads of great mobile phone deals out there, but this, folks, won't be one of them, because I can just about guarantee it will cost a fortune. And believe me, it'll be worth every single penny, because it looks like a serious contender for best mobile phone ever. But I'll tell you this, it's immediately, blatantly obvious what the Sony Ericsson Paris (or the P5, if you prefer) is designed to do. Look at the touchscreen interface (granted the P-series phones have had touchscreens for the last 5 years, but this is the first one optimised for finger touch). Look at the metal accents round the edge. Look at the suitably shiny screen. I'll tell you what they're doing... they're going after the O2-exclusive iPhone, that's what. On the strength of what we know so far... well, they may well do it, too!
