Sony Ericsson C901 Preview.
In what appears to be an accidental release of product information, Sony Ericsson have
let slip details of the new Sony Ericsson C901 Cyber-shot phone.
This 5 megapixel device appears to be a straight replacement for the C902, but with a larger
and more conventional display. From our measurements, this is a 2.2" panel rather than the 2.0"
panel in the old C902. Although we liked the touch sensitive buttons on the old phone,
the screen was really far too small for a 5 megapixel device.. even the new 2.2" unit
is smaller than we would like.
The camera is a 5 megapixel unit with a bright Xenon flash. The C901 allows geotagging of
photographs when used with the optional HGE-100 GPS accessory.
This is a quad-band GSM support with dual-band 900 MHz / 2100 MHz UMTS but no WiFi. It measures
105 x 45 x 13mm and weighs in at 107 grams.
There's no official word on the C901 that we can find, so we can't tell you when it
will be available. It isn't really much different from the C902, so we guess that it will be
available in the next two months or so.
