Two New Cameraphones from Sony Ericsson

Sony Ericsson has  announced two additions to its Cyber-shot phone range with the launch of the C702 Cyber-shot and C902 Cyber-shot. The C702 is a dust resistant GPS based cameraphone, while the C902 comes with 5.0 megapixel camera with Face Detection and Auto Focus

"The two new Cyber-shot(TM) phones that we have announced today share certain characteristics. Both phones place ease-of-use and best-in-class picture quality at the heart of their designs," said Sven Totté, Head of Imaging Marketing at Sony Ericsson. "Yet both appeal to different audiences. One is engineered to let you take more pictures in more places and the other is designed to look as stunning as the pictures it takes."

With the C902 Cyber-shot you just need to slide open the active lens cover and shoot. The Face Detection and Auto Focus capability enables the camera to detect and focus on the face of your subject rather than the background, so that you can take sharp and high quality pictures of your friends.

The C902 Cyber-shot comes with a 160MB built-in memory - the equivalent of storage for up to 100 full resolution photos - plus the possibility to add even more memory with the Memory Stick Micro (M2) that can be bundled with the phone depending on the market.

The C702 Cyber-shot is a UMTS/HSDPA 2100 and EDGE/GPRS 850/900/1800/1900 phone that will be available in selected markets from Q2 2008. The C902 Cyber-shot is a UMTS/HSDPA 2100 and EDGE/GPRS 850/900/1800/1900 phone that will be available in selected markets from Q2 2008.
