Sony Ericsson’s Paris; the leaked details continue

by Robert Nelson on May 27, 2008 at 10:04 AM

While the latest round of details to surface for the Paris are not exactly as flattering as the rest, this should still prove to be a worthy handset. The new details that have come to light reveal a solid offering coming from SE. The P5 is a slider style phone with a QWERTY keyboard and will be UIQ based.

The handset also offers a touch sensitive display with one-touch screen rotation, the ability to browse or view bookmarks without sliding the handset open and one-touch zoom in/out navigation.

The Samsung based camera with auto-focus comes in at a nice 5-megapixels, and we can also expect to find Wi-Fi, an FM radio and standard Walkman player. The included GPS will default to Google Maps, however WayFinder 7 will also be installed as a trial option. Finally there will be support for Microsoft Office documents.

We also now know that the Paris is expected to retail for 400 Euros and is rumored to include UIQ 3.3 and Opera 9.5 at the time it ships. As of now it is expected to be available in early September.

    How come you report on the Paris but not on E71/E66?

    No response, huh?
    I m starting to think that you are biased since Nokia doesnt get much love on this website at all!
    Do I really have to go to others to learn about such important developments on the mobile communications market???

    Nothing biased about Nokia here, they have some great handsets available, just happen to be focusing a little more on SE now. We have had and will continue to offer Nokia coverage in the future.

  • I’ve always been a fan of Nokia’s but this is one sexy Sony model.
    Currently using the Nokia 8800, very similar slide function to this one.

    @ Aussie VO
    I m sorry but I have to disagree with you.
    Paris is suretype kind of phone so I guess it s for non addicted power users while 8800 is nice high-end phone I d say has very little in common with SE Paris.
    And if you want to see sexy phone I suggest you go over to other tech blogs who are actually interested in covering Nokia so you can see e71 in its full glory.
    just sayin
