Sony Ericsson G705 - another cellphone in Sony’s G series, which was initially set to be released on the Sept 8, but it got delayed for a day. At least it’s come now a day later.The SE G705 is a good looking slider which is loaded with nice mid-end features. Since it’s also a member in the G-series, it’s meant to be used as a personal assistant in your overly busy daily life. The SE G705 doesn’t run on Symbian UIQ and neither on any other mobile OS. In fact, it’s on a Java platform.
The phone sports a 2.4 inch TFT display with 262K colors, and supports auto-rotation. You’ll find A-GPS, DLNA, Bluetooth 2.0, FM radio, 120MB of internal memory, 1GB M2 card and 3.2-megapixel camera with flash on this cellphone. The camera is also capable of geotagging and video recording.
The phone is to ride on quad-band GSM cellular networks. It’s been loaded with some Google features, equipped with a full HTML browser, with a shortcut key to have quick access to Google Maps and also video viewing and direct uploading on YouTube. It also supports Exchange ActiveSync for your email.
Since the phone is ready with the nice browser and functions with Google Maps, YouTube and email etc, it must come ready with high-speed Internet connectivity. Yes, it works on Tri-band HSDPA, which Sony claims that it’s the “turbo 3G speeds”.
The US version is made available in early 2009, whereas the G705u, which is the first SE’s UMA-enabled phone will be made available for the UK. The price tag still remains unknown.
