Product Overview
Sony Ericsson W880 fans rejoice, for today Sony Ericsson launched the W890, a
device that shares many of the original's traits yet provides a number of
technology upgrades. While it still lacks auto-focus, the W890 steps up things
to a 3.2 megapixel camera while still providing the same thin-profile look that
W880 owners appreciate so much. Also noteworthy is an upgrade to quad-band GSM
and the addition of HSDPA data onto the W880's existing UMTS support.
Like all Walkman handsets, the W890 comes equipped with Sony Ericsson's Walkman
music player application. The version in the W890 supports Windows Media DRM and
a huge list of music file formats. The W890 can make use of wireless Bluetooth
headphones, wired headphones, or even the built-in stereo speakers when they
wish to listen to their music collection. Sony Ericsson even saw fit to include
a 2GB Memory Stick Micro card in the box with the phone, which should allow
upwards of 1800 songs to be loaded onto the device, depending on music format
and bitrate used. This Walkman phone also supports Sony's MegaBass function,
TrackID, and Sony Ericsson's SenseMe tempo/mood music categorization system. If
all else fails, there's even an FM radio built-in.
