For those who love their music and their smartphone Sony Ericsson is bringing you a nugget of gold. The Sony Ericsson Yendo is classified as a “Walkman Phone”. Now you know the good news. Take a closer look at the features and details here in this quick article.
The thoughts behind this are more towards the audio than the visible spectrum. The size is a tiny 3.7 inches tall. It is just barely over half an inch thick. For those not in the United States that translates over to 93.5 millimeters tall and 15.8 millimeters thick. It will hardly feel like it is in your pocket. It weighs 2.8 ounces.
The music player is the classic Sony Walkman setup. It has TrackID, PlayNow and MediaGo. MediaGo is the application that helps to transfer music from your PC to your phone. The Sony Ericsson Yendo is equipped with a 3.5 millimeter head phone jack. If the five megabytes of internal memory is not enough there is a slot for a MicroSD card. It will accept a card up to sixteen megabytes in size.
The Yendo does have a two megapixel camera. It can take video. The quality of the photos will be a smallish 1600 by 1200 pixels. There is only one camera. For more audio, the Yendo also has an FM radio for local music or news.
The screen is a touch screen, but this is not a smartphone. The processor is running at a rousing 720 megahertz, but there is no operating system. This is strictly for calls, music and bit of graphics. The display is a resistive touch style so it is going to require a more firm touch to operate. Most resistive touch screens require a stylus.
You get a wide range of colors to choose from with a Sony Yendo. Here is the list; Orange, Purple, Yellow, White, Blue, Green, Pink, Red Silver and of course, Black. Sony Ericsson plans on having it ready to sell in September of this year.
