The Sony Ericsson Yendo is still a couple of months away from launch and we hope the time is used wisely. Theres quite a few software-related things to polish. The sluggish user interface for one ruins the fun of having such a neat and good looking touch phone.
Then, the Walkman branding is raising more questions than answers. Ease of use and good looks are key in a low-end touch phone but you cant help but notice the media package here is just a bit too basic. read more →
- Ultra compact
- Dual-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
- Touch-friendly four corner UI
- 2.6" capacitive touchscreen of QVGA resolution
- 2 megapixel fixed-focus camera with video recording
- No 3G, Wi-Fi
- Smallish, low-res display
- Sluggish user interface
- Basic music player (for a Walkman phone)
- Disappointing camera
We want to make one thing clear – we are not thrilled with the Sony Ericsson Yendo. Aside from the nice and compact design, there was nothing to really attract us (at least, in a positive manner). It has the potential to become a fairly successful budget touchscreen phone, but for this to happen, Sony Ericsson needs to deal with the issues we witnessed in our prototype – most notably, the overwhelming lag. read more →
