Dari Sony Ericsson Press Release :

Sony Ericsson fuses crystal clear audio with the latest mapping technology – exclusive to Vodafone on the W715 Walkman™ phone

08 January 2009

Introducing advanced wireless connectivity combined with Sony Ericsson’s best-in-class audio experience – the W715 Walkman™ phone. Building on an array of innovative launches in 2008, Sony Ericsson announces a new product into its mobile music range. With quick access to the navigation services through a dedicated key, it opens up the world of easy navigation to bring something new in 2009.

London, UK - January 8, 2009 - Sony Ericsson announces that soon Vodafone customers will be able to use the GPS enabled W715 Walkman™ phone to make the most of location-based services. Aside from turn-by-turn pedestrian or driving navigation available using Vodafone Find&Go, customers will be able to find their nearest restaurants, hotels or shopping centres all within a few clicks on their new mobile phone.

The W715 Walkman™ phone features the same superior sound quality as the W980 Walkman™ phone, which was rated ‘best audio experience’ in independent tests*. On the top of premium music experience with crystal clear sound, the W715 includes popular Walkman™ features such as the music recognition application TrackID™, SensMe™ for matching your mood to the music, and Shake Control to change tracks with the flick of a wrist. All this provides for a premium Music experience, fully integrated with Vodafone Music, allowing easy access to single and album downloads.

‘"The W715 is another exciting exclusive for Vodafone customers. The seamless integration with Vodafone’s Music services, such as single or full album download, provides for a great overall experience on our fast and reliable network. With fully integrated GPS and Vodafone Find&Go, this phone is offering a very attractive feature set in a combination we know customers are asking for more and more", said Patrick Chomet, Global Director of Terminals at Vodafone.

‘We are continuing to progress the music capability on our phones’, added Peter Marsden, Head of GCU Vodafone at Sony Ericsson, ‘and the W715 Walkman™ phone is a great way to support Vodafone Music, plus its dedicated key to location-based services simply highlights its ease of use – all making for a great user experience.’

The W715 Walkman™ phone is much more than a music phone. Its metal finish combines with a large screen in an elegant and compact slider for a professional feel. The inclusion of a 3.2 Megapixel camera and Wi-Fi connectivity allows users to snap photos of friends, and quickly upload them to social networking sites for all to see.

The Vodafone exclusive Sony Ericsson W715 Walkman™ phone will be available in Galactic Black, and Luxury Silver. Country availability will be announced in due course.

jadi ini cuma W705 yg d rancang buat vodafone?

vodafone, berarti gak masuk sini yaa??

@Hananta
Iya, gak masuk, khusus Vodafone.
Buat yang selain Vodafone kan ada W705, tapi minus GPS.

@sUd_Xu
Yup, W715 = W705 + GPS
Atau dengan kata lain W715 = versi Walkman dari G705.

W715 code name : Norika

^ kirain Nokia.. hahaha

W705 salah satu kandidat kuat nih buat ganti pertengahan taun ntar, tapi masih mikir2 dulu...... mikir harga maksudnya

Baik G705, W705, W715 semua udah ada wifi..

Sepertinya platform JP 8.4 udah pake wifi semua deh..

Termasuk C905 sebagai pembukanya.. CMIIW

Sama halnya dengan A200 yang udah HSDPA semua.. (baru 'ngeh soalnya..)

Heh? Vodafone kluar di indo? How come?

aneh., ah.,
@tekim.,bukan minus wifi., tapi minus GPS kali yg dimaksud

@zyglwyn
Tau dari mana keluar di Indo?
Harganya berapa?

Ga tau juga.....

Gw kaget banged pas tadi pagi buka situs resmi SE Indo..

Tiba2 HP ini muncul aja sebagai HP SE yang akan keluar pada Q1 2009!!!!!!!!!!! Bareng ama C510 & w705!!!!!!

Kalau ga percaya coba aja buka aja [tautan dihapus]

Kadang2 situs SE gak bisa dipercaya dalam hal tertentu.
Di situs di atas, bukan hanya W715 yang ada di daftar ponsel di situ, tapi ada juga yang lain yang jelas2 udah beredar di luar dan gak masuk ke Indonesia :
- V640 (versi Vodafone K630)
- Z750 (hanya untuk Amerika)

Anehnya, dari dulu K610 gak pernah ada di daftar SE Indonesia. Tapi K618 nya ada.

Jadi jangan keburu senang dulu ya....

Barusan SMS-an sama Hanny Sanjaya, product managernya Walkman Phone di Sony Ericsson Indonesia, dia konfirm katanya W715 masuk awal Maret ini, kisaran harga masih dirahasiakan.

Gw jg curiga W715 memang disiapkan jadi produk internasional bukan cuma khusus Vodafone aja, soalnya penamaannya yang udah universal, gak spesifik pakai "V" lagi seperti biasanya.

Wah, udah keburu beli G705..... Tapi kalaupun nunggu sampe Maret, kelamaan....

Kalo w715 beneran masuk bisa jadi w705 kalah saing dong.. Ato jangan2 w705 mau dicancel? Kayaknya pernah denger rumor di forum sebelah gitu.. CMIIW
