Sony Ericsson today announces two new entry-level phones, designed for lasting communication. With superb talk and standby times, torch functions and FM Radio the J132 does the basics well. Add the camera and Bluetooth™ functions to the K330 and you get further features on an equally straightforward phone.

Singapore, 17 June 2008 – Two new candy-bar phones from Sony Ericsson, designed with simplicity and value for money in mind. The J132 is a talk and text phone with FM radio and stereo hands free kit; the solid feel and dust-resistant keypad make it an ideal everyday companion. For those wanting a clear-cut camera phone, the K330 with video capture and Bluetooth™ sharing is the obvious choice. This phone also offers FM radio listening via speakerphone or stereo headset.

“There are certain phone features, such as a large phonebook and torch functionality, that are considered key to consumers in developing markets ” says James Marshall, Head of Portfolio Marketing at Sony Ericsson. “We’ve made sure that both of these phones pack all of the essential features and appeal to anyone wanting a durable, no-nonsense mobile.”

Everything about the J132 is uncomplicated. Its clear and bright screen coupled with its one-click shortcuts and easy-to-use navigation key means that you are ready to text, search for a number or access the FM radio without fuss.

Promo di koran gw liat harga launch nya 799rb..

Mirip2 t280 ni, cuma lebih murah karena kamera masih vga..
Bagusnya phonebook udah 1000 contact ma sms bisa 450..

mirip banget ama t250/t280..
tapi penasaran UI-nya..apa ngikut r300/t303 (alarm ada 5 pilihan, bisa personal message tone) atau masih sama kayak t280

Gw rasa sih.. lebih mirip t250/t280..

- Layar 1.7"
- Fastport atas
- Standby softkey cuma 2, ga 3 kayak r300/t303..

@LaNDo
Fastport atas kan udah ada sejak T250 bro...
Iya neh gw heran juga sama K330.
Tadinya gw kirain bakal jadi penerus K320 tapi ternyata setelah cek lagi speknya, ampun deh, kayanya memang mirip2 sama T2xx, belum lagi lokasi fastport-nya, tambah mencurigakan deh.
Apalagi liat di gsm arena pas bagian USB katanya gak support.
Oh no... seri kepala 3 gak support USB? penurunan banget. Salah seri nih, harusnya K280 kali...

ada yg blg harganya <700rb yah. beneran perkiraan gw diatas akhirnya terwujud juga mimpi gw fastport diatas (daripada samping! ). penasaran liat aslinya

Harga resmi SESC : Rp 775.000

tolong kasih info soal layar K330 ini dong ..
ini hp lumayan murah, trus memuat teks sms berapa baris ?

tq

layar 128x160.. Buat teks sms kemungkinan sama dengan t250 ato t280.. CMIIW

Btw ni hp udah ready stock blm ya? Ato baru price listnya aja? Lumayan ni buat secondary..

Udah ready stock (2 warna) di beberapa toko handphone di ITC Kuningan dan Mal Ambasador.

Tapi... entah apa yang ada di pikiran para marketing SE saat ini, K330 mecahin rekor "kotak terkecil" dari semua hape SE yang ada, bahkan ukuran kotaknya jauh lebih kecil dari J110 sekalipun!

^
ha serius tuh...??
sampe sekecil gitu kotak nya??
jadi ga keren yah.. hwhw..
padahal kotak gede kek m600i.. w850i.. gitu2 kan keren.. hwhw...

mungkin penghematan dari packaging nya.. hwhw... ngasal bgt dah gw..

lalala

Box nya kecil banget..? Di paketannya termasuk handsfree ga ya? Kalo gw liat di plemix di paketan cuma ada charger, manual book, batre.. Waktu gw beli j120 aja dikasi hf.. Kalo emang beneran ga dikasi berarti mang bener2 pengiritan.. Udah box kecil, ga ada hf pula.. Padahal ada radio.. Jadi mirip2 kasus g502 yang ga dapet kabel data di paketan padahal dibutuhin banget buat koneksi internet.. Aneh..

kalo kecil gt isinya cuma hape ma charger ma buku manual doang ya bos TRO?

Barusan liat penawaran di eBay malah lebih aneh.. Dapet handsfree sih.. tapi juga dapet kabel data.. Padahal katanya ni hp ga bisa koneksi usb..

Ternyata boxnya emang kecil banget.. Hehe.. Kurang lebih 2/3 boxnya R300 ato J120.. Kata yang jual sih udah termasuk handsfree.. Tapi seperti yang lain harganya naik dikit..

@hwars

masa sih dapet kabel data???padahal cuma bisa konek gprs aj ya??

btw, kira2 kapan ya SE ngeluarin hp dgn fasport + PENUTUP???

penting bgt tuh penutup fastportnya...masa telanjang ya....

bisa2 kemasukan air pas ujan

trus, nih hp diklaim tahan percikan debu dan air...apa casingnya dari karet ya???

Siapa bilang dapet kabel data? Itu gw liat di websitenya eBay bro.. Makanya gw juga bingung kok ada kabel datanya padahal specnya ga support usb..?

Yang gw liat sih cuma tahan debu.. Tapi itu juga yang J132 (promonya muncul bareng k330 ini) jadi kayaknya bukan K330 sih.. CMIIW

Penutup fastport? Lah wong c702 aja ga pake penutup fastport..

@hwars

payah juga....diklaim anti debu, anti percikan, dll...tapi bagian fastport telanjang...

nih hp kayanya seri tough dari t250 dkk deh....

gw baca di majalah hp, k330 sebenernya kembar dengan j132...maksudnya sama seri tough....

klo seri j132 dah kluar blom....harga brapa??sori OOT dikit

hello.....

w900 ada penutup fastport kok he2

@atas

beneran ad?? klo gitu rekor hp SE dengan fastport berpenutup pertama..
