Sony Ericsson - camera phone domination

By: Matt Sharp

In 2008, one phone-maker is set on shaping the game of camera-equipped mobile phones. This company is Sony Ericsson, and they are determined to dominate not just the market with top-end camera phones, but low-end ones, as well!
Camera phones through the ages - the world created by Sony Ericsson
It's rather apt, really, that Sony Ericsson should be the ones leading the way in the revolution in camera-equipped mobile phones. After all, it was them who started it all, long ago, in 2002. Let's not forget that they were the first company to unveil a mobile phone that had a camera in it, within the British marketplace. That phone was the Sony Ericsson P800, but it didn't really hit the mass market in the way that Sony Ericsson wanted, since it was an amazingly (compared to other mobile phones at the time) high-end smartphone. But, their most iconic phone ever was about to be unleashed, and that one WOULD have huge mass market appeal. That was the Sony Ericsson T610, and it entirely altered the mobile landscape. There was a phone that stood out amongst the crowd of all the other mobile phones around it. It was compact, it was sexy, and people went MENTAL for it. And, let us remember that the Sony Ericsson T610 had also got an integrated camera, and that it was really the first phone to go to the mass market, and make people think, 'Hang on, we actually do want cameras in our mobile phones!'
Now, the market has diverged, into entry-level handsets, and high-end camera-equipped mobile phones; well, it's fair to say that Sony Ericsson really badly want to rule both!
Sony Ericsson S302 - cheap, cheerful, snappy
If you want a Sony Ericsson camera phone, but you don't need a big, super-powered device, then the Sony Ericsson S302, the first phone to be announced in their brand new Snapshot series, is the perfect handset for you. It's a brilliant little device, with a small, slick shell, a marvellous screen, and a groovy little multimedia browser. In addition to that, despite this being classed in the 'budget phone' category, the Sony Ericsson S302 comes with a superb little 2 megapixel camera. Ok, you don't get autofocus, but since it's a budget camera phone, it's brilliant!
However, the S302 is an entry-level mobile phone... how about if you want a phone that's got real clout? What if you desire one of Sony Ericsson's Cyber-Shot line...?
Sony Ericsson C905 - the ultimate camera phone?
You just can't deny power, and something is very clear: the Sony Ericsson C905 has loads and loads more sheer power than all other mobile phones you'll come across in the UK. Why is it so special? Well, it's the first camera phone to be announced in the UK with an 8 megapixel camera. That's right. EIGHT. That's a frighteningly big pixel count, and it means that the Sony Ericsson C905 gives you the power to take the absolute sharpest images you've ever seen, from any camera-equipped mobile phone, in the history of everything ever. Oh, and on top of that, remember that Sony Ericsson have amped it up with Cyber-Shot brilliance, and that will make the photos coming out of it so much more beautiful. Add in a stunning multimedia player, WiFi, HSDPA and integrated GPS, and you have to come to the conclusion that the Sony Ericsson C905 is, basically, the number one!
