Sony Ericsson Aspen Mobile Phone

Sony Ericsson is in the pursuit to accomplish the ‘Green’ promise they made last year. We saw Elm, Hazel…and now its Aspen. Besides being a green phone, this mobile phone has another feather on its crown. It is the first smartphone to run the Windows Mobile 6.5.3 operating system.

The latest version of Microsoft’s windows mobile operating system will adorn Sony Ericsson Aspen with enhanced user-interface, which means more finger-friendly menus and touch controls. Better web browser, which ensures a faster loading of pages, smoother panning and improved memory will be the other enhancements that the Aspen will receive due to Windows 6.5.3.

Ready for the launch in the second quarter of 2010, Sony Ericsson Aspen Windows Mobile Phone promises a fast multi-tasking of applications, suitable for business class. The mobile handset, which will be available in both iconic black and white silver, features a rectangular and solid design, attractive and stylish enough to flaunt. It has a dimension of 117mm X 60mm X 12.45mm and weighs 130 grams. This Sony Ericsson mobile phone can work on all quad band GSM networks and has an extensive support for GPRS, EDGE, UMTS/HSPA (3G).

Unexpectedly, the touchscreen display of Sony Ericsson Aspen measures only 2.4 inches, and bears a QVGA resolution, 240 X 320 pixels. Also, the phone has only 100MB on-board memory, but expandable up to 16GB. Don’t know why Sony Ericsson has lessened these two, despite of claiming it as a business phone.

In terms of camera, Sony Ericsson Aspen 3G Mobile Phone has a 3.2 mega pixels camera, with a digital zoom of 4X, automatic colour and light balance, multi-shot and a self-timer. The auto focus and additional camera settings are missing as per the specification sheet(Otherwise also where is the time for business men to capture photos and edit them on phone?). However, let us wait till its release to see its performance.

Next on the board is entertainment. Sony Ericsson knows that the business people require entertainment to relax between their assiduous life. Perhaps, that is why Aspen comes with plenty of entertainment features. Media player with stereo speakers, radio, You tube, video streaming, 3D games and Facebook. What more you want?

Sony Ericsson Aspen 3.2MP Camera Mobile Phone supports text, multimedia, instant messaging and e-mail messaging services. And, you have both QWERTY keyboard and predictive text input for fast text entry. There is handwriting recognition as well. Since this windows mobile phone is housed with Wi-Fi, 3G and the latest improved windows mobile operating system, let us hope that the whole connectivity will be fast and will not drowse us. It has bluetooth and USB for local transfers.

The integration of an assisted GPS is another advantage in Aspen, that too with Google maps. This feature and the support for Microsoft Office documents, will be a real boon for business men. Besides, there is an organizer with tasks, phone book, notes, flight, calendar, calculator and many more. Sony Ericsson claims that the battery of this GPS mobile phone lasts for 10 hours talk time on 2G and eight hours on 3G. The stand by time is said to be around 450 hours on 2G and 600 hours on 3G.

Overall, Sony Ericsson Aspen seems to be a decent option suitable for most of the masses. It is housed with features that can truly fulfil the requirements of everyone, who wish to get a fast 3G mobile phone, only if you don’t wish to get a totally high-end smartphone. Performance and Price Tag?…Lets us keep our fingers crossed!
