The range of Cyber Shot cell phones from Sony Ericsson have been an immense hit. The new Sony Ericsson K850i Cyber Shot cell phone has quickly gained an excellent reputation to be the best camera phone in the market. As the Sony 850i has changed the styling but not much of its, the phone is a perfect example of technology moving forward to the next generation as it designed with a powerful 5 megapixel camera including an excellent 3G high speed HSDPA network.
The Design
The team at Sony Ericsson was actually determined to restyle the 850i. It is surely less brink like with its looks and they have slimmed down the cell phone a lot which is a great change. The back hump found in the previous cyber shot cell phones is luckily a thing of past as the new 580i is designed with a flat back including piano black finish. It also inherits the previous K810’s small number keys but these are square ones and a bit more rubbery that offer better dialing grip. Sony Ericsson had to clearly cut down on their d-pad and keypad space in order to avoid enlarging the cell phone which has also increased the display size.
The Camera
When you talk about camera the Sony Ericsson 850i is clearly much ahead in the competition. It boasts of a high quality cyber shop optics and has an outstanding 5 megapixel resolution. It also includes the xenon flash which is much better compared to LED flashes. The cell phone camera is also designed using an autofocus and also the automatic lens cover. The Sony Ericsson 850i being designed with the BestPic feature it would automatically take nearly nine pictures in a second, letting you choose which you need. In order to reduce camera shakes you can use the picture stabilizer features in the mobile. The handy switch at the side of the phone would let you easily choose different camera modes which are much like a digital camera.
Features
The display of Sony Ericsson 580i is designed using high quality TFT ultra high resolution which offers the best of clarity you can expect on the large nearly 2.4 inch display. The cell phone also features a media player which is fully features with all the basic applications needed for easy browsing through your favorite songs although not being a walkman phone. It is also designed with in build FM radio feature with RDS. Sony Ericsson 580i features AC and MP3 ringtones. The cell phone is also the first among Sony cyber shot mobiles that uses 3G HSDPA technology as it enables you browse through the web and also download files at an excellent broadband speed. As it a 3G cell phone you can also enjoy video calling with high quality video viewing.

Sony Ericsson K850i Review

The brilliant addition to the Nokia N-Series cell phone range, Nokia N78 is offered as an unlocked cell phone from Nokia. This cell phone is designed to work on the 3G HSDPA networks of AT&T and as there are some unique features like videoconferencing through the front facing camera you might find it difficult to operate it in U.S networks. However a network update is expected from Nokia that would make it a cell phone for U.S networks. As the cell phone is out for nearly $500, it does not require any contact agreement from you and this cell phone does not feature a carrier subsidy.
The design
The Nokia N78 is a basic standard looking candybar cell phone. The phone is almost featureless black slab when asleep and when you on the phone the buttons would illuminate it in a typical 12 key layout as there are some added buttons right below the bar. Most of the people found the keypad to be very small but you can carry out most of the cell phone functions through the center Navi-wheel which is more convenient. The four way navigator buttons is located at the center of the phone which is touch sensitive which acts as the scroll wheel.
The typical Symbian S60 UI is not much changed for the Nokia N78 but is has rather developed a few features like visual flourishes and fade-ins which you will appreciate. Overall the cell phone is pretty responsive and although you might face the regular symbian problems like when the applications stack up the phone would run slow. However it is rather very easy to close applications that run in the background through the dedicated application button. The team at Nokia has again used a media browser window which can be easily accessed by the silver media button besides the scroll wheel. This media browsing window is very responsive while quick browsing and scrolling but you will not find any additional functionality rather than the traditional shortcut menu.
Calling
The Nokia N78 smartphone used the HSDPA network of AT&T that offers you pretty clear calling through the phone. You will get nearly 4.5 hours for a single call which is much more than was expected by Nokia. Regarding the calling features the Nokia PC suite would do a great job as it easily synchronizes with your PC in copying your outlook contact list.
Messaging and multimedia
The cell phone offers excellent features for your messaging. Basically the cell phone supports all the SMS including a huge range of MMS options. You will find emailing through the cell phone very easy as it would also ask you if you need to set up Gmail for your IMAP. It is very capable of sending at least 5MB of vide through your email. However the client application would ask you browser and server information which is actually difficult for setting up Google talk and AIM accounts. Through its excellent 3G service you can also enjoy a number of multimedia features with Nokia N78 as it does a great job in playing videos and music.
