Sony Ericsson strengthens Cyber-shot™ phone range with two models that take photos further
10 February 2008

Sony Ericsson’s new C702 Cyber-shot™ and C902 Cyber-shot™ deliver best-in class picture quality beyond just megapixels.

Barcelona, Spain – 10th February 2008 – Sony Ericsson today announced two high-performance additions to its popular Cyber-shotTM phone range with the launch of the C702 Cyber-shot™ and C902 Cyber-shot™. The two phones, packed with the latest camera technology, make it effortless to take perfect pictures of those spontaneous moments – day or night, at a bar or the beach – and instantly share them with friends and family.

“The two new Cyber-shot™ phones that we have announced today share certain characteristics. Both phones place ease-of-use and best-in-class picture quality at the heart of their designs,” said Sven Totté, Head of Imaging Marketing at Sony Ericsson. “Yet both appeal to different audiences. One is engineered to let you take more pictures in more places and the other is designed to look as stunning as the pictures it takes.”

Sony Ericsson C702 Cyber-shotTM – Take pictures everywhere

* Splash and dust resistant* – perfect for your active lifestyle
* Single-handed camera use – for spur-of-the-moment photos
* Built-in GPS with location-based imaging – sort and view your photos according to where you took them

Never too extreme
You can use the C702 Cyber-shot™ in a range of different conditions, as its unique design means its both splash and dust resistant*. This means that whether you’re off-road or just off to the mall, your C702 Cyber-shot™ phone can always be at your side wherever you go, whatever you do. After all, the best camera is the one you have with you.

Never miss a shot
The C702 Cyber-shot™ is engineered to let you take pictures in any position. The camera key and the active lens cover are specifically designed and placed so that you can stabilise the 3.2 megapixel camera and capture the moment with one hand - perfect for an active lifestyle. Combine this with steady-grip materials and a wrist-strap provided in-box, and the C702 Cyber-shot™ really is geared to go more places.

Never lost
The C702 Cyber-shot™ integrates GPS and a range of location-based imaging services that really add a new dimension to taking and managing your photos. When you take a picture, information about where you are in the world is automatically added to the image. So you can always share your best moments with your friends and family according to where the shots were taken. Or you can simply sort the picture through your photo gallery on the PC or on the web.

If you are lost on your travels, Google™ Maps for Mobile locates and guides you to where you want to go, enabling you to roam free with confidence. Use GPS to pinpoint your location and then get turn-by-turn voice guidance to your destination. Find your way home or to one of up to 20 million points of interest.

Sony Ericsson C902 Cyber-shot TM – The image and style statement

* Slim Cyber-shot™ phone with unique slide-out lens cover. Camera-ready in an instant
* Stand out design – instantly recognisable
* 5.0 megapixel camera with Face Detection and Auto Focus. Always capture the best shot possible
* Illuminated camera touch keys. Intuitive guidance around the camera settings

The slim line C902 Cyber-shot™ will have everyone wanting to have their picture taken. Ultra-compact, stylish and with a unique lens cover that slides open to reveal the 5.0 megapixel Auto Focus camera, the C902Cyber-shot™ sports a camera performance beyond its sleek and slim looks. The phone’s lighting dramatically signals when you are in camera mode by switching from white to blue. The eight camera touch keys come to life and let you choose between camera modes, Photo Flash, Face Detection and Auto Focus, and more with just one touch without moving your finger from the shutter button.

Just shoot
With the C902 Cyber-shot™ you just need to slide open the active lens cover and shoot. The Face Detection and Auto Focus capability enables the camera to detect and focus on the face of your subject rather than the background, so that you can take sharp and high quality pictures of your friends.

Night shoot
With the C902 Cyber-shot™ you can be confident of getting the perfect shot. The phone incorporates the latest in lighting technology – Photo Flash – giving you better quality pictures even in low-light conditions. Also, a light solution has been added to the established BestPic™ feature – which lets you take nine photos in quick succession, choose the best and delete the rest. So now you can use BestPic™ wherever you are, perhaps even to capture the dance-floor action in a club!

Create your own multi-media slideshow
Use x-Pict story™ to add music and transitions to your gallery of photos and automatically create your own multi-media slideshow to share with your friends. Lights, music, action!

Store and share
The C902 Cyber-shot™ comes with a 160MB built-in memory – the equivalent of storage for up to 100 full resolution photos – plus the possibility to add even more memory with the Memory Stick Micro™ (M2) that can be bundled with the phone depending on the market.

Easy transfer wherever you are
You can transfer the images on your phone to your computer by using the CCR-70 M2 USB Adapter, also announced today. Save your photos to the phone’s memory card, remove it and pop it into the CCR-70. You then slot the card reader into your laptop and all your photos can be dragged across! Delete from your Memory Stick and you’re ready to go and fill it up again with more memories.

- SONY kameranya gambarnya tajam, juga reponnya cepat, tapi jelek di ISO tinggi (Banyak Noise)
- Canon punya noise yang rendah, tapi gambarnya gak setajam dan responnya gak secepat Sony.
- Olympus kabarnya gambarnya lumayan bagus, tapi responnya sangat lambat.
- Nikon gambarnya lebih bagus dan noisenya lebih rendah, dari Canon, tapi tetap nggak setajam dan secepat Sony

Kok gak ada yg nyebut Kodak sih? Padahal Kodak kan baru saja mengalahkan N82 dan K850. *[tautan dihapus]*

@WhiteEye

Walau Kodak merupakan salah satu pionir di dunia fotografi, tapi di dunia fotografi digital namanya kurang "bersinar". Masih kalah ama merk2 lain....

Kodak (kalo kameranya) reproduksi warnanya cenderung lbh tipis sih. ^^

Laporan dulu ah.
Bugs di K850 kayanya menular ke C902 di firmware R3BH002 nih : Kalo muter musik pake wired handsfree (test pake HPM-75) ada masalah dengan volume --> Set volume maksimum lalu turunkan lagi sedikit maka suaranya jadi gak stabil, naik turun sendiri kaya bergelombang.
Ini hanya terjadi jika pake handsfree yang pake kabel, karena gw test pake HBH-DS980 gak masalah sama sekali.

Dan akhirnya... dengan berkorban 10 Euro, semalam gw update ke R3CA037 Customized Greece (Adriatic).

R3CA037 ADRIATIC
LCD : 200712200
Camera : 1.9
Video call camera : 1.3

Text : BU

Versi software kameranya naek dari 1.8 ke 1.9.
Gw belum sempet test ada perubahan apa di kameranya, secara menu sih tetep sama aja. Yang belum gw test adalah hasilnya, apakah jadi lebih baik atau gimana.

Ntar ya kalo sempet dilaporin...

ditunggu nih review hasil software terbarunya

Sony Ericsson C902 in Titanium Silver co-stars with James Bond

Sir James Bond has a hunch for Sony Ericsson handsets, as it seems, as the Sony Ericsson C902 will be co-starring in the latest James Bond movie (22nd in a row) called Quantum of Solace. Sony Ericsson will be releasing a limited edition Titanium silver version of the Sony Ericsson C902, which will be available for a limited time and will be loaded with Agent 007 goodies.

Sony Ericsson have a history with James Bond as this will be the third movie to feature the latest Sony Ericsson gadgets. In 2006, the exclusive silver K800 Cyber-shot was part of James Bond's arsenal in Casino Royale, while back in 2002 the Sony Ericsson P900 and T68i were used by several of the cast in Die Another Day. This time with a new James Bond movie, comes a new Cyber-shot spy phone.

Besides the Titanium Silver color, the limited edition Sony Ericsson C902 will pack a new Top Agent spy game (trial), James Bond themed content such as screensavers, wallpapers, and themes plus the Quantum of Solace movie trailer, and behind the scenes interviews and footage from the movie.

yg beli si gw... tp tmn2 gw ngomel krn harganya mahal amat... ya gpp jg, jadi kan gw masih bs mikir2 mo beli C902 or G900
soalnya gw lebih suka G900 ada wifi n layarnya lebih gede, tp ga ada cover lens nya... C902 gw seneng sm modelnya.. kayanya jeroannya sama ada sm G900

G900 kan belom HSDPA bro..masih 3G, tapi ada Wifi..

C902 jeroannya beda lah sama G900, yang satu A200 yang satu UIQ. kalo gw sih lebih suka C902, soalnya naksir sama shortcut kameranya yg lengkap kayak di K770..cocok bgt buat yang hobi poto2

Kalau ingin layar lebar dan ada wifinya tunggu saja C905

Guys... berita buruk nih.
Waktu hari Minggu sore C902 gw jatuh... nimpa besi buat railing pintu yang di bawah, pas di bagian yang tajemnya, tutup baterenya lompat. Itu jatuhnya pas gw ambil dari sarung waktu mau nerima telpon. Abis jatuh trus gw terima telponnya. Selesai percakapan telpon, tutup baterenya gw pasang lagi... tutupnya gak apa2... pas cek bodi ternyata di bagian paling belakang bawah ada boncel dikit banget, kira 1 milimeter lah, bentuknya mirip kaya kalo kita suka masukin hape sama kunci2 ke dalam kantong celana, kaya baret kena kunci gitu deh...

Secar fungsi sih gak ada masalah sama sekali, tapi karena... gimana ya... gw-nya agak2 perfeksionis sama sedikit punya obsesive-compulsive gitu kali ya istilah kerennya... tu hape gak mau gw pake lagi... gw minta tolong temen buat jualin, entah laku berapa gw gak tahu deh...

Tadinya gw punya rencana besok kalo sempet mau beli lagi C902 baru, tapi... tiba2 aja tadi ada yang nelpon gw ngabarin tentang sesuatu "barang" yang udah sejak lama gw pengen beli.... dalam 2 minggu ke depan kemungkinan udah tersedia... dan karena gw bakal butuh biaya lumayan banyak buat beli tu barang, kayanya rencana beli C902 nya gw pending dulu deh... Sementara harus puas dengan G900 dulu dan nasib baik menimpa SO905iCS karena akan dikaryakan kembali setelah sekian lama pensiun, hehehe....

Jadi sekarang cuma bisa mantau2 dulu aja ya...

Mudah2an ntar kalo barang yang gw maksud di atas itu udah kebeli dan masih ada sisa duit buat beli C902 gw pengen beli lagi juga... kalo gak ya nunggu November aja kali biar bisa dapet edisi James Bond.

sorry to hear that, bro..

emang sih, kalo ngeliat ada lecet-lecet gitu di hape jadi gimanaa gitu. hahah
