LONDON — Sony Ericsson has announced the K630i, a stylish all-rounder fully packed with all the features needed for managing work life as well as your favorite pictures, video and music.
Available in two colors — Havana gold and quick black — the new Sony Ericsson K630i keeps you in control, fully informed and entertained at all times.
Powered by turbo 3G (HSDPA) and weighing in at only 97 grams, the K630i delivers a PC-like Web surfing experience in a pocket-sized frame.
Pre-loading of Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync gives you the possibility to mirror your PC/laptop inbox, look out for urgent e-mails and write quick responses.
Add to this your desktop widgets, animated icons that sit on your phone’s desktop and give one press access to your favorite websites, and it’s easy to see how the K630i brings the Web into your phone. RSS feeds can even be set up to keep you up-to-date with the latest news, weather and entertainment.
You never know when you might need to snap a picture, so the K630i’s 2.0-megapixel camera is always on-hand to shoot still pictures or moving images. Share these instantly with friends via MMS, e-mail or postcard, or by uploading them to your own online gallery, or blogsite. Share the Web address withfriends and family to instantly give them access to all your latest photos or video clips.
The K630i also provides a true music experience. It comes with 256MB Memory Stick Micro (M2) inbox and supports up to four gigabytes — that’s up to 3,600 full-length tracks.
That sounds like a lot, but the K630i’s mobile broadband (HSDPA) capability means it only takes about 14 seconds to download a full-length music track, up to four times faster than average on a regular 3G phone. To make things easier still, the K630i features a dedicated music key to help you navigate all of those songs.
The phone features an in-built Media Browser, meaning that there is just one location on the K630i’s menu to launch the music player, video player or photo gallery, and to access all of your in-phone content.
The K630i comes complete with new Media Manager software inbox to let you easily move your favorite music, photos, videos and more between your PC and your phone.
Music tracks or video clips will be automatically converted into phone-friendly formats and creating playlists or adding album artwork to your tracks is simple.
“The thinking behind the K630i is that it can give you more time to do the things you really want to,” says Martin Winkler, head of Web marketing at Sony Ericsson.
“The K630i is the perfect tool for managing your day-to-day agenda and keeping up with e-mail, but it is much more than a work-horse. It is the perfect companion for those ‘downtime’ moments, such as waiting for a train, where listening to music or watching a video can make time go that bit faster,” Winkler adds.
The Sony Ericsson K630i will be available in selected markets before the year ends.
