We have been teasing you for a while now with various details on the Sony Ericsson Idou phone. Today, Sony Ericsson officially announced the phone and will be now known as the Sony Ericsson ‘Satio’.
As reported from the SEMCBlog, You’ll be able to pick up the Sony Ericsson Satio in a choice of three colours: Black, Silver and Bordeaux. We have to say, we didn’t see the third (Bordeaux) colour coming and it looks great.
Here’s a quick refresh of specs for you. The Satio will come will a whopping 12.1MP camera with Xenon Flash, a large 3.5-inch 360×640 pixels TFT touchscreen, MicroSD support and will run on the S60 5th edition Symbian Operating System.
Here’s the important bit, Sony Ericsson have said that the Satio will be launched this October, so you’ll need to decide if you want to wait all Summer for one or not.
Are you going to one of these up? We are hearing that the phone will still not come equipped with a 3.5mm audio socket, what are your thoughts on this?
