Share life in exquisite style with Sony Ericsson's new fashion mobile phone, Jalou. Packed with unique features and encased in a beautiful facet-cut jewel form, it is a stylish addition to any handbag. Jalou will be available in selected markets Q4 2009

London, UK – August 12, 2009: Beautiful inside and out, Jalou exudes style as well as substance for the ultimate in chic communication. Sony Ericsson's latest style statement is only 73mm long – shorter than your favourite lipstick, it is easy to slip into the tiniest clutch or jacket pocket and is full of essential features. Never mind a signature necklace or oversized shades; Jalou is the perfect accessory.

Known for its expertise in design and technology, Sony Ericsson explored art, architecture and furniture trends whilst delving deep into the couture and fashion world to ensure Jalou encapsulates some of the hottest fashion trends which will emerge next year.

“Structured forms, intricate corners, hidden depths and jewel accents are set to be some of the hottest fashion trends in 2010. You can also expect to see deep and natural jewel colours on the runway next year. Jalou reflects these trends with its delicate facet-cut diamond shape design, clean and expressive lines and variety of different shine and matt finishes, that give depth to the handset,” comments Charles Hunt, Jalou head designer at Sony Ericsson. “The design team wanted the handset to reflect beauty found in nature. They looked at structure, strength and form in various crystalline jewels, which resulted in the unique shape.”

Combining beauty with cutting-edge technology, Jalou’s host of features will keep you entertained and looking fabulous. The two inch screen’s clever design means that at the touch of a button the screen becomes a mirror, offering a discreet way to make sure you look as good as your mobile phone. It is also the first Sony Ericsson to feature Walk Mate step counter, to help you stay in shape wherever you go. It also has an exclusive fashion interface which automatically updates with zodiac signs and special events throughout the year. Jalou will be available in a variety of gem inspired colours including: Deep Amethyst, Aquamarine Blue and Onyx Black.

“The new Jalou phone is all about looking great and sharing the good life,” said Linda Schori, Marketing Business Manager at Sony Ericsson. “We wanted to create a beautiful handset without compromising on style or content. It’s perfect for anyone who is sociable, loves fashion and wants to stay one step ahead of trends, because it has a fashion forward design you will want to show off. And, for such a compact handset, it has an immense amount of detail both inside and out.”

Other features include the 3.2 megapixel camera, music player, video recording, 3G, Bluetooth™, built-in FM radio and Internet where you can check your email, watch YouTube™ clips, Google™, as well as upload your video and photos to your favourite social networking sites.

Jalou™ presentation video

bagi yg tertarik nonton aja.

P.S. Couldn't SE hire a tad more good looking amateur model???? This girl is so mediocre.

Di Perancis, si Jalou akan pake nama BeJoo, dengan alasan Jalou dalam bahasa Perancis punya arti yang sama dengan Jealous.

Dolce&Gabbana design special edition Jalou for Sony Ericsson

12 August 2009

Get noticed with the limited edition Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana. The stunning rose coloured mobile phone, with real 24 carat gold plating, is an exclusive Dolce&Gabbana handset that will be available in select markets from Q4 2009.

London, UK – August 12, 2009: Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana is a special limited edition clamshell handset, exuding style and substance both inside and out. The Dolce & Gabbana branded style statement has a beautifully facet cut jewel form and is only 73mm long – shorter than your favourite lipstick, it is easy to slip into the tiniest clutch or jacket pocket and is full of essential features.

Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana comes complete with exclusive packaging and accessories – three silky rose satin bags to either protect the phone, store the charger, or to even carry jewellery. But that’s not all – it also comes with a special Dolce & Gabbana branded headset with gold accents to keep you connected in style.

Even the content is special on Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana. Exclusive photography and video clips from Dolce&Gabbana’s women’s Autumn/Winter 2010 runway show, with sneak peek footage from all the backstage action, will be pre-loaded on the handset. There is also a variety of stylish themes and wallpapers, as well as a Dolce & Gabbana blog that sends the latest trends, news and gossip directly to the mobile phone via an RSS feed.

Keep your eyes peeled for the advertising campaign at the beginning of October which will support the launch of Jalou by Dolce&Gabbana. Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce will work on the creativity themselves to deliver a stunning advertising campaign.

Jalou will also be made available by Sony Ericsson, in Q4 2009, in a variety of other gemstone inspired colours including Deep Amethyst, Aquamarine Blue and Onyx Black. Never mind a signature necklace or oversized shades; Jalou is the perfect accessory and Christmas present.
