Sony Ericsson W760i handset in new livery

A new variant of the Sony Ericsson W760i has been released as a new MTV Edition Phone. The new livery, as you can see by the illustrations, are certainly lively, bubbly and evocative which will definitely stand out from the crowd.

The W760i is a Walkman phone that includes a CD containing music, photo and video clip management software to transfer music, videos, photos to and from your phone. For gaming, you can control game functions - accelerate, slow down, turn - by tilting the phone forwards, backwards, left or right. The A+B control keys try to replicate a console.

When changing your tune, you can shake the phone. With Shake control activated, you can press and hold the Walkman key and flick your wrist. A vibration lets you know that the track has been changed - a new song from your current playlist is randomly selected and automatically played.

Sized at 103.0 x 48.0 x 15.0 mm, other features for the W760i include tri-band coverage with HSDPA facilities for fast data coverage which is especially useful for music and video transfer. The TFT screen supports 256k colours.
