Posted by Michell Bak
March 12th, 2010

Here’s a quick look at the Sony Ericsson vivaz. In the preview I’ll be covering the design of the phone, updated standby panels, camera and multimedia as well as the web browser. All in about four minutes or so. Now, this was my very first video preview like this, so please forgive any mistakes I [...]

Here’s Rikard Skogberg and his friend Mårten doing a video unboxing of the XPERIA X10. It’s just about ready to ship, so stay tuned for more information about it! I can’t wait to get my review sample, that’s for sure! What about you? It’s probably one of the most exciting products from Sony Ericsson ever.

Here’s Michelle Gustafsson from Sony Ericsson’s Developer World team doing a quick demonstration of the XPERIA X10 Mini. I’m super impressed by the speed of the device. Everyone I’ve been talking with about the X10 Mini have been telling me that it’s super quick. That’s nice!
By the way, here’s a request for Sony Ericsson’s developer [...]

Cool video presentation of Elm

Posted by Michell Bak
March 5th, 2010

The guys over at Sony Ericsson just published this cool video presentation of Elm on the official YouTube channel. Kind of makes me want an Elm, although I’m not really in need of one nor a huge fan of it. Guess the marketing part works then! Some of the nice features of the Elm include [...]

I know many of you must have been waiting to see just how well the Vivaz performs when it comes to still photos and moving video footage. Well, you don’t have to wait any longer. If you press the photo above you’ll get a quick photo sample (6 megapixels, was shot in the 16:9 setting) [...]

Here’s a pretty cool video, showing the navigation application on the Satio. In my review of the Satio, you can read that I quite fancy it

Video: Desktop and widgets on X10

December 12th, 2009

This video was just published on the Sony Ericsson Product blog, and I thought I’d share it with you guys and gals here as well. If you’ve already fiddled around with the desktop on an Android device, you probably won’t need to watch this short video as it’s basically the same thing.

Sony Ericsson have posted three new videos featuring the X10 – one of TimeScape, one of messaging on the device and the last one is about augmented reality applications on X10. Check them out below.

Check this video from the local X10 event

November 28th, 2009

Just found this video from the local X10 event in Copenhagen. It’s in Danish, but you’ll catch moments of the phone’s user interface as well. Other than that, we’ve got comments from my boss in the video and yours truly makes an appearance a few seconds into the video – you definitely don’t want to [...]

It’s crappy, short and not very detailed, but none the less it’s the first actual video of the Kurara (or U5) and it’s just hit YouTube. Check it out below!

November 22nd, 2009

A leaked video sample from the Kurara has been published on YouTube in 720p resolution. I’ve downloaded the original HD video file and uploaded it here, so you can check the quality. It’s from an early prototype build, so it’s nowhere near being finished.
The video shows that it currently records video with a video bitrate [...]

Video: Sony Ericsson Satio Preview

November 19th, 2009

Here’s a 17-minute video preview of the Sony Ericsson Satio. There’s no audio as I simply couldn’t find a track long enough. Fire up your favourite music player if you want music to go along I had to divide it into two parts because of YouTube’s 10 minute limit. Hope you’ll enjoy!

X10’s UI Is Finally As Snappy As Conceived

Posted by NightBlade
November 18th, 2009

Or nearly. See, back when the X10 was announced a few weeks ago, the live impressions of the interface weren’t that great. It was like watching a slideshow of static images. Now that the interface has been optimised to work more nicely with the Snapdragon beast that lies within X10’s interior, everything seems to be [...]

November 10th, 2009

Here’s quite a cool promotion video for the new XPERIA X10 that’ll hit the market early next year. It’s made by the same company who did the demo tour video on the Satio and X2, so I’m guessing this will be the one for X10.

Video: Xperia X5 Pureness gets unboxed

November 2nd, 2009

It seems Mobile-burn have managed to get their hands on the upcoming Xperia X5 or perhaps better known as Pureness. Having done so, they’ve posted an unboxing video of the device that shows its design and how it works. Oh, and Michael Oryl is obviously not familiar with Bluetooth headsets – just kidding, Michael! Was [...]

New Bits of Rachael’s Interface Appear on YouTube

October 31st, 2009

Remember how Rachael’s TimeScape interface was leaked back in the summer? The one that showed a combined update feed for each contact from multiple sources? Yeah, now we get to see MediaScape, which is essentially SE’s glorified media menu on Android.

Pretty cool, eh? Older video after the break.

If anyone had doubs before…

By the way, we’re postponing the preview of Aino to tomorrow. Don’t worry, you’ll forgive us!
Something has come up and we won’t be able to do anything until next week. Sorry guys.

Video unboxing of the Sony Ericsson Aino

Posted by Michell Bak
October 27th, 2009

Here’s an unboxing video of the Sony Ericsson Aino that was released to market just recently. It’s quite a nice phone, although I must admit that I absolutely resent the keypad and soft keys. It’s way too cramped for my taste.
As you can see from the video, the Aino comes with a desk stand, Bluetooth [...]

Here’s a shortfilm video about the Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana. It is directed Cyril Guyot for D&G and the entire promotional campaign has been created exclusively by D&G without the help of Sony Ericsson. What do you think of it?

You can read more about the campaign here and you can check out more videos here.

This is just a quick post, but I thought some of you might find it quite interesting. It shows the capabilities of OpenGL ES 2.0 and the hardware graphics in the Sony Ericsson Satio. Go to 3:32 if you want to see the demos on a computer and to 5:00 if you want to see [...]

In the comment section on the Satio video samples post, akudan asked if it was possible for me to upload a video clip from Satio that was shot in low light. Last week I had recorded a video of me and a friend playing table tennis on our own little set up (the net was [...]

The Satio is Sony Ericsson’s best camcorder to date, and would probably rank among the best on the market. I’ve shot a few video samples for you guys, so you can see the excellent video quality. You can download the original (unedited) video clips from the links below (right click and save). And yes – [...]

October 9th, 2009

Here’s a rather interesting video I’d like to share with you. It’s a quick overview of a new service by Sony Ericsson called “Sony Ericsson Contacts”. It’s basically a “cloud service” in which you can store all your organizer info online, making it easy to synchronize when you change something or get a new phone [...]
