Sony Ericsson continues to expand its line-up of Walkman phones with the announcement of the W902, W595 and W302. All of these Walkman phones feature Sony Ericsson’s music recognition application called TrackID, music and mood matching technology called SensMe and shake control for changing tracks with the flick of the user’s hand. Here are the things that you can expect from these new Walkman phones.

First up, we have the W902 which features the same sound quality as the W980 and is slated for release sometime in the near future and was also honored for its “best audio experience” by the German TESTfactory. ThW902 touts a 5-megapixel camera with video capturing and sharing capabilities, retro music navigation, a scratch-resistant 2.2-inch QVGA screen and lens which is said to be made of mineral glass and an 8GB Memory Stick Micro. The W902 supports UMTS/HSDPA 2100 and GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and will be available in Volcanic Black, Wine Red and Earth Green sometime in Q4 of 2008.

Next we have the W595 which is geared for those who like sharing music with their friends. This Walkman phone is equipped with stereo speakers, an in-box sharing jack for sharing music with a friend and a Bluetooth connectivity for throwing music into wireless speakers. The W595 comes with a 2.2-inch LCD screen, a 2GB Memory Stick Micro and slew of preloaded games to accompany users during otherwise boring moments. Like the W902, the W595 is also a UMTS/HSDPA 2100 and GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 phone. It will be available in Active Blue, Cosmopolitan White, Jungle Grey and Lava Black sometime in Q4.

Finally we have the slim W302 Walkman phone featuring a 2-megapixel camera, FM radio, TrackID, Bluetooth Stereo and a 512MB Memory Stick Micro. The W302 sports a compact metal finish measuring only 10.5mm wide. The W302 supports GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 networks. It will also be available by Q4 in Midnight Black or Sparkling White.
