Sony Ericsson C905 (1)



The Sony Ericsson C905 is set to become the new standard for camera phones when it's released in October (just in time for Christmas!). Forget the 5 megapixel camera phones of last year - the C905 comes with a huge 8 megapixel camera, some serious camera wizardry to get the best out of all those pixels, and a huge range of other features, such as HSDPA, WiFi and aGPS, as well.

First of all, an overview of the C905. It is, as you can see, a slider phone, with a keypad that's apparently extremely easy to use, and a simple sliding design that actually looks rather good.

It's not the smallest of phones, but then it wouldn't be, given the amount of features that Sony Ericsson's managed to cram into the thing!

Ah yes, the features - let me remind you of just some of them:

  • GPS and aGPS
  • Bluetooth™ technology
  • Modem
  • USB support
  • Wi-Fi™
  • DLNA™ support, letting you share your pics and vids wirelessly across hundreds of other devices
  • Video streaming, recording and playback
  • Bluetooth 2.0
  • MP3 player
  • FM radio
  • GeoTagging and mobile blogging features
  • TV-Out

Did I mention the 8 megapixel camera?! Yes? Well what about the following camera-specific magic:

  • 8.1 megapixel camera
  • Xenon flash
  • Auto focus Face detection
  • Smart contrast
  • Image stabilizer
  • Red-eye reduction
  • BestPic™
  • Digital zoom – up to 16x
  • Photo fix
  • Photo flash
  • Photo light
  • Video light
  • Video recording
  • Video stabilizer

What all this means is that the Sony Ericsson C905 isn't just a camera phone - it's actually more camera than phone, and is set raise the bar for camera phone when it launches in October.
