Smartphone Sony Ericsson U5a is now allowed to work in networks of UMTS II and V, i.e. 1900 MHz and 850 MHz. This means that the release of Sony Ericsson U5a can very soon be expected in the retail network of U.S. operator AT & T or the Canadian operator Rogers.

Sony Ericsson Vivaz is the second smartphone running Symbian S60 5th Edition (Symbian ^ 1), followed by smartphone Satio.

International Congress MWC 2010 is getting closer, and new data constantly emerge on the web on what devices can be represented at the congress. At this time we have information about the new product from Sony Ericsson codenamed Abelin.

It is a smartphone based on Android software platform. French resource PointGPhone has informed that the announcement of the phone is expected at Mobile World Congress. According to the source, Sony Ericsson Abelin is similar to BlackBerry smartphones: candy bar with integrated QWERTY keyboard, it also has a 5 megapixel camera. Obviously, the model can become a good business device.

However, there is no information on what kinds of display will Sony Ericsson Abelin have. In general, this is all the information available about the characteristics of new products. PointGPhone also mentioned that the smartphone will become part of a series of XPERIA, and its index may be X9. It should be noted, that we have recently written about another new device – Sony Ericsson Faith.

This device is also equipped with a bar form factor QWERTY keyboard, but it also has a touchscreen. Sony Ericsson Faith is running Windows Mobile 6.5 or even 6.5.3. Perhaps the company has decided to create a similar device, but with different operating systems?

By the way, the announcement of a mini-version of the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10, a model known as Robyn, is also expected at MWC 2010.

Sony Ericsson company will, apparently, present its smartphone Kurara (U5) in the near future. Meanwhile, the official photos of the new item and even a video have leaked on the web.

The official name of the device is Vivaz. This model runs on Symbian S60 5th edition.

It is a bar form factor phone with a 3.2-inch touch screen with a resolution of 640×360 pixels and no hardware keyboard. “The highlight of” the model is a 8.1 megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash that can record video HD 720p.

Also Sony Ericsson Vivaz has a GPS receiver, TV-out, 3,5 mm audio connector and support for Wi-Fi wireless networks and HSDPA high-speed standard. The smartphone will be offered in four “space” colors: black (Cosmic Black), silver (Silver Moon), red (Venus Ruby) and blue (Galaxy Blue).

While nothing official is known about the timing of release and cost of the new item, it is assumed that Vivaz can go on sale in March and will cost $670-750.

There has been informal information online concerning the device Sony Ericsson Faith, functioning under the Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional operating system.

The device, built on a Qualcomm MSM7227 processor, carries on board a 2.4-inch touchable screen display with a resolution of 240 × 320 pixels, QWERTY-keyboard, wireless modules Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, GPS-receiver, 3.2-megapixel camera and a slot for the microSD format memory card.

Sony Ericsson Company may plan the production of the reduced X10.

It should be noted that the phone Sony Ericsson, under the code name “Robyn “became known from the resource of GSMArena not so long ago, which published some spy photos.

According to the news , the new device under that code name may appear in a smaller version of the smart phone Xperia X10. It is said that the phone will run under the Android operating system and have support for 3G.

Due to the fact that Sony Ericsson did not present the phone at the exhibition CES, the new official details about the phone are expected in February, when the MWC 2010exhibition will be held.

In principle, this phone is apparently the “relative” to smartphone Sony Ericsson Kurara, but is made in the side sliders form factor with sliding QWERTY-keyboard, which is not available in the model Kurara.

Judging from the screen, the mobile phone is based on Symbian S60 fifth edition, like smartphones Nokia N97, Samsung i8910, SE Satio etc. Sony Ericsson Kanna has touch screen with the diagonal of 3.2 inches with a resolution of 360×640 points, the supports for Wi-Fi module, a GPS, microUSB and 3.5 mm connectors, as well as a slot for MicroSD memory cards.
