WhiteEye from Esato has an incredibly detailed and impressive design to show us… Believe it or not,
Sony Ericsson San is a Walkman phone, one that packs a touchscreen and Android OS. It seems to draw its inspiration from the Walkman X-1000 MP3/Video player that Sony just launched at CES 2009, but takes all the specs to a new level.

The San concept phone is mid-end Walkman phone, featuring a 2.4 inches TFT multitouch screen (240 x 320 pixels), plus touch-sensitive keys with function shift. There’s also a 3.2 megapixel camera on board with flash and a secondary VGA one for video calls.
As far as software goes, Android’s at work for the first time of a Walkman device and there’s even a custom made Walkman Player for Android, with a couple of shots you can check out below.


Among the music-oriented features we must mention AVLS (Auto Volume Limiter System), DSEE (Digital Sound Enhancement Engine) and Clear Bass, Clear Stereo.
With so much details in the pictures above we wonder why this is not a real phone yet… The function shift idea is particularly interesting, since we’ve seen it on a couple of devices and it would save so much space, if we could switch the use of touch sensitive keys, from phone functions to music ones.

Parsnip’s last concept was a promising start and now the designer is back with more details on his idea. Turns out that the concept phone we saw a couple of days ago is Sony Ericsson X610, a Windows Mobile 7 device, packing a 14 megapixel camera that uses a Leica lens.

X610 features aGPS, Bluetooth 3.0, WiMAX support, a 24 million color VGA screen, a Sky DVB+ antenna and a mobile projector. This handset’s specs are quite futuristic and maybe it’ll hit CES 2011, but in the meantime we must mention that it also comes with a laser pointer and a fuel cell battery.
If the image above wasn’t enough for you, Parsnip Photoshopped a “live” pic of Sony Ericsson X610, that you can check out below. Since this is an “X” phone with Windows Mobile on board, it must be related to the XPERIA series. What do you think?

Esato is where all the fresh
Sony Ericsson designs are at and there’s a new a kid on the block, Parsnip who showed the world his first Photoshopped phone, the device you can check out below. I wonder if there’s a keypad under that glossy surface beneath the call/answer keys. Also, the display of the concept handset seems to be a touchscreen, but I wouldn’t bet on that…
So, what do you think? Cyber-shot or Walkman?

Thanks to Shane A. Bygrave, we get to see some
Sony Ericsson action in the last days of 2008, well at least when it comes to concepts. It’s very unlikely we’ll be seeing launches or even leaks in this period, not till January 5th, I guess..
Back to Shane’s beautiful designs, they’re Sony Ericsson C907 and W865, pictured below.

C907 comes with a 10.1 megapixel camera with autofocus and 3x zoom, plus Carl Zeiss optics, while the Walkman W865 concept features a 5 megapixel sensor. The M2 card slot is also there, plus a Walkman player, media keys and a neat and slim design.
What’s missing? Another touchscreen XPERIA to end the year right…

Merry Christmas to all of you Concept Phones readers! Since we’ve all been good boys and girls, why wouldn’t Santa bring us one of these superb
Sony Ericsson devices below? I’m talking about Razec’s latest concept phone, the Sony Ericsson Yucali. Its stunning specs include a 12.1 megapixel camera, Android UI with UIQ style and a 1GHz processor.

The incredible device comes with brushed metal finishing, a 12 megapixel Sony Exmor sensor, a 1 GHz Qualcomm QSD8250 CPU, ATi Imageon Graphics, Xenon flash, Android OS 2.0 and clear audio technology.
Pick your favorite color from the options below and remember that this is only a concept, so don’t go asking “how much does it cost” in here.

There’s nothing like a so-called “hands on” picture with a concept phone… it’s like Photoshop’s taken to the max each time. This is the case of Sony Ericsson T903 Ryuga, designed by J. Havrlant, who also created a special page for the device, right here.
In the image below we get to see the handset taking a picture and we can only hope that this 8 megapixel concept phone will get real, maybe next year?

We’ll see Cyber-shot handsets with megapixel counts that are higher than 8 in 2009 for sure, but for the units that stick to that figure, design will be crucial in the years to come. Some day 8 megapixel will be “low end”… Some day, Sony Ericsson will make a 20 megapixel cameraphone…
Till that day comes we can have a look at this breath-taking Sony Ericsson C909 Audi R8 V10 Edition concept phone, designed by Tob!s and posted on Esato:


Some say that the “spyshots” of the device are made using a Photoshopped HTC Touch HD, which is quite possible, but still a great job. Combining the Audi and Sony Ericsson brands you get elegance, style and neat features (we can suppose). From the looks of it, the concept phone’s display is at least a 3 inch one and there should be some neat camera editing software in there, too…
After all’s said and done, we must remind you that we are yet to see a hot (and real) cameraphone with a touchscreen display.

One can’t even go to bed and wake up the next morning, without finding out that a new SE concept design has hit the prolific Esato board. After J. Havrlant did 3 versions of the
T903 Ryuga, Sealover94 decided to share his vision on the future of Sony Ericsson Walkman phones.
This time, the W1 concept phone gets pictured front and back, where it reveals a nice 8 megapixel camera.

I’ve been watching the evolution of SE concepts for quite a while now and there’s a pretty strong tendency of blending Cyber-shot and Walkman handsets. Why doesn’t Sony Ericsson do it? It’s a mystery to me… It might be that a music phone with a hot camera would have a high price tag.

After seeing Sony Ericsson T903 for the
first time we fell in love with it, while the
second concept design offered us a view on its back and its 8.1 megapixel camera. Now it’s time to check out J. Havrlant’s last version of the Sony Ericsson T903, inspired by Mazda Ryuga and this time, the portrayed handsets are so hot that the image can be used as a wallpaper.

Using a car as your source of inspiration is always a pretty neat idea, but when the car itself is a concept design, things get stunning.
J. Havrlant designed the Sony Ericsson T903 concept phone, inspired by Ryuga, one of Mazda’s hottest futuristic automobiles.

Although some of you won’t dig the front keys, you’ll surely appreciate the backlighting, decent touchscreen and my male intuition tells me that there’s a hot camera at the back, too… What do you think?
