Sony Ericsson Z710 announced
18 May 2006 by Olav Hellesø-Knutsen Today, Sony Ericsson announced clamshell model Z710. Z710 is targeted at business users and offers quad band and EDGE network support. "The Z710 is perfect for business and personal use," says Jan Wäreby, Corporate Executive Vice President, Head of Sales and Marketing, Sony Ericsson. "It offers many features that today's business people expect in a phone such as easy synchronisation with a PC to keep calendar and contacts up to date and its sophisticated, yet casual design fits today's professional lifestyle." Business-friendly features include push e-mail support and RSS feeds for news updates and traffic reports direct to your phone. PC tools include synchronisation of your phone book and calendar as well as USB 2.0 support. A 64MB Memory Stick Micro (M2) is supplied that is expandable to 1GB and can be used to store and transfer any type of multimedia content, including text, graphics, video, stills and audio files.
The 2 Megapixel camera captures sharp, crisp stills and video and these are easily shared using MMS, Bluetooth, stored on the Memory Stick or transferred quickly to your PC via USB. When it's time for you to switch off, the entertainment suite includes a high performance media player and FM radio with RDS. The media player supports all of the common music file formats, including the new e-AAC+, which dramatically reduces memory space and download time. The clamshell design allows for a large external LCD screen. This allows many functions to be performed without opening the phone. By using the direct keys next to it, the media player, FM radio, SMS message review, previewing tasks and diary appointments can all be accessed and controlled. The Z710 is a Quad-band EDGE/GPRS phone available in Twilight Black or Metallic Sand and starts shipping during Q3 2006. It is available in the following variants: Z710i Quad Band EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 for Europe, Middle East, Africa and Americas Z710c Quad Band EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 for Mainland China

On 21 May 18:57 Geezay wrote Absolutely wonderful! Love the fact that you can control a number of things with the phone closed. Not too crazy about the Memory Stick Micros though - had invested in Pro Duos. Ah well.... On 20 May 16:12 zia wrote fantastic and beautiful phone with lot offunctions On 20 May 13:23 Agbonzegbeosakwepete wrote As every body can see, the phone is well organised by the producers. they deserve second round of apploud and some bottles of campain. I would have love to have one of it,if u dont mind. U have really done a great job. On 20 May 09:11 hamadullah wrote i had agreed with On 19 May 01:46 Anthlis wrote Agree with Residentevil. This is the phone to replace my Z600 at last. I think the product is stylish and its ergonomics well thought out. Most of all I like the well laid out keypad - somthing that has annoyed me about SE phones recently. On 18 May 22:18 sloopjohnb wrote i dont think that cam has got autofocus... it doesnt say anything about it around the lens like on k750/w800 and w900. On 18 May 22:14 Residentevil wrote finally a good successor to the Z600. On 18 May 21:51 DeLa wrote Looks like a workhorse. Feature pack is interesting. The use of the external screen sounds very well thought through. On 18 May 21:09 levo75 wrote this seems so very similar On 18 May 20:48 Chamak wrote I like this clamshell very much. Looks impressive to me. On 18 May 19:42 think wrote looks better than Nokia's clamshells. Impressive! On 18 May 18:43 Oscar wrote Good camera (as W/K series) but style in no so impressing to me. Something really good: the outer controls for listening to music (you don't have to go to the keypad). |
The Z710 also features the Access NetFront full HTML browser. It makes web access on the move as simple as on a PC and EDGE speed means pages download rapidly. It also has the latest Bluetooth 2.0 with HDR (high data rate) for fast data transfer with other Bluetooth devices, providing robust, quality connections for accessories such as wireless headsets and handsfree car kits. The Z710 also supports Bluetooth streaming in stereo (A2DP) so you can enjoy the full stereo power of the phone's media player completely wire-free.
