22 August 2011, London, UK - Sony Ericsson today announced Sony Ericsson Live
with Walkman(TM), an Android smartphone that delivers a unique social music
experience. A dedicated Walkman(TM) hardware button provides instant access to
the music player and consumers can also like, share and discover content through
a deep Facebook(TM) integration. The infinite button lets the consumer explore
even more and the *Qriocity service from Sony provides music and video content
for the consumer to enjoy.
With attractive curved design, a glossy finish and a mineral glass display, the
phone has a 3.2" screen and a powerful 1Ghz processor. A front facing camera is
enabled for Skype video calling, while a 5MP AF camera can capture 720p HD video
recording. *Sony's xLOUD(TM) enhances audio output, while the latest Android
platform for smartphones (Gingerbread 2.3) provides access to over 250,000
applications on the Android Market(TM).
Nikolaus Scheurer, Head of Product Marketing, Sony Ericsson said: "Consumers
want smartphones to deliver a rich and social entertainment experience. Rather
than a one dimensional music experience, they want instant and seamless access
to new content, combined with the ability to share and connect with their
friends. The Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman(TM) provides exactly this, in a
powerful package with great style."
A perfect combination of social networking and music entertainment:
* Deep Facebook(TM) integration: Allows users to instantly access Facebook
through the most used areas of the phone such as the picture gallery, music
player, phonebook and calendar.
* Media Discovery Application: A dynamic application placing the world of
music and videos at consumer's fingertips including Facebook(TM)
recommendations from their friends.
* Infinite button: Tapping it within the media player enables consumers to
have instant access to new content about their favourite artist, such as
music videos, artist information and lyrics search.
* Qriocity music and video content services from Sony: Consumers can access
millions of songs from all major labels and watch thousands of movies from
all major studios. Only Sony Ericsson Android smartphones provide consumers
with unique access to the entertainment services from *Sony.
* *Sony's xLOUD(TM) technology: Enhances audio output of the inbuilt speakers
at high levels.
* TrackID(TM): Identifies the music track you are listening to within the FM
radio and music player. The track can then instantly be shared or
