It may be an unconfirmed handset for now, but we are certainly excited to see the W150 TeaCake Android smart phone that was leaked in images just a day ago. From the looks of it, this phone is slated to be a great media-playing mid range handset that will certainly attract plenty of users.
More than the Nokia’s X6 (or the whole eXpress Music series), the Walkman technology from Sony focuses heavily on being able to deliver a comprehensive listening experience for the user. Of course, playback will still be limited to the actual bitrate and quality of encoding of the audio file, but at least the player will certainly be able to deliver the best audio possible –and Sony’s preset equalizer settings bring out the best in any speaker setup.
Focusing on the TeaCake itself, this phone is certainly tuned for casual smart phone users. Folks who want an Android to run many apps and games might want to get other Sony Ericsson Android devices like the XPERIA X10 –the TeaCake is focused more on music playback and of course, social networking.
With a 2.6 inch TFT capacitive touch screen display and a 5 mega pixel camera, the phone really comes out looking a lot like the X10 Mini in terms of both form and specs. This is not bad either, as the X10 Mini is already a pretty good device. If the W150 is simply Walkman version of the Mini, it would still be a great addition to SE’s Android lineup.
Speaking of the Android lineup for SE; there are two other smart phones that were leaked along with the SE TeaCake –the Shakira and a yet to be named Android handset with a 5.5 inch touch screen display. While the TeaCake is certainly worth looking forward to, it is hard to deny that the most exciting of the group is the Android with a large touch screen –the screenshot showed that it can even fold up to be used as a mini netbook.

In this modern day and age, more and more people are using the internet to keep in touch with friends and family. Whether it be through simple emails, or by using social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace, people all over the world are talking to each other, and thanks to technology it is possible to send an email in the UK, for it to be received only 10 seconds later in Australia.
All technology develops and changes all the time and mobile phones are no exception to this. For the last couple years mobile phones have used new technology to allow people to use Facebook and MySpace directly from their phone, but there have often been troubles such as loading speeds or incorrect layout. The new phone from Sony Ericsson, the Xperia X10 is a phone designed especially for communication purposes.
Using a special new program called Timescape, all your conversations and text messages are grouped in one window. Basically, you can view all your messages from Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, your emails and text messages in the same window to save you going from page to page which many get confusing and be a time hassle, especially if you are in a hurry. You can also reply to all the messages from this one window, which is great for fast replying to various messages. The Sony Ericsson phone comes complete with a built in FM radio, designed for giving you your favorite music whilst on the go, in places where you may not be able to listen to loud music. A wireless headset is included to make sure you do not disturb other people. The phone is due in Q1 2010 when we will be able to pick up the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 on contract.

Pushing forward against all odds can seem like a bit of folly for some, but this is one of the reasons why Sony Ericsson managed to stay on top of the game despite many consecutive years of losses. The financial state of the company is not transparent for us to see, but judging from the joint venture’s 2009 losses, it is obvious that they just might need a Hail Mary pass if the company is going to survive next year.
Simply put, Sony Ericsson lost about 836 million Euros and unless they generate some big sales this year, many are predicting that the company might not be able to keep up.
Bert Nordberg thinks otherwise:
“The refreshed portfolio, coupled with the business transformation programme has started to positively impact our financial results.
We will continue to focus on returning the company to profitability by establishing Sony Ericsson as the communication entertainment brand based on an exciting portfolio of mid- and high-end products, such as our recently announced Android-based phone, the Xperia X10.
2010 will still be challenging as the full benefit of cost improvements will not impact results until the second half of the year, however we are confident that our business is on the right track.”
Folly? The words came straight from the president of Sony Ericsson. This is not blind bravado, aside from the much anticipated Snapdragon Android XPERIA X10, the SE Vizaz, Kanna and Robyn are also due to be released this year. There is also a growing demand for the eco-friendly Greenheart phones (it has also been reported that SE is working on a new Greenheart WinMo phone).
Indeed, unlike the rest of us looking back at SE’s problems and why the company had a bad performance; Sony is pushing forward and focusing on what it can do to perform better.
