The new Sony Ericsson W760 Walkman® phone packs GPS and cutting-edge gaming, as well as an enhanced music experience, into a stand-out slider.

Las Vegas, USA - 6th January 2008 - Sony Ericsson today announced the W760, the first truly global Walkman® phone with tri-band HSDPA, enabling broadband speed downloads of the latest music and content wherever in the world it is used. Offering music on your mobile and much more, the phone delivers built-in GPS to help you find that secret gig, distinctive Stereo Speakers for sharing your music and the latest hit games, including Need for Speed™ ProStreet.

The W760 is a Walkman® phone that you will want to take with you everywhere. This is where the added protection from the multipurpose Active Speaker MAS-100 comes in. Announced today, it acts as a good-looking protective case, a speaker to let you play your tunes even louder and an FM radio antenna.

"People today are always on the move so it's important that they can stay in touch and have their entertainment at their fingertips," said Ben Padley, Head of Music Marketing at Sony Ericsson. "The W760 fits perfectly into this lifestyle. It is bold, action-packed and takes the Walkman® phone beyond just music."

The phone's built-in GPS with Wayfinder Navigator™1) lets you search over 20 million points of interest around the globe and talks you to your destination every turn of the way. There's also a GPS-supported fitness application called Tracker that can tell you how fast, for how long and how far you ran (or walked!).

Become the focal point of a spontaneous party or gaming experience with the W760's powerful built-in stereo speakers. If outdoors, use the phone with the Active Speaker MAS-100 - a revolutionary case that not only looks fantastic but also protects your Walkman® phone at the same time as being a built-in speaker and FM radio antenna for enjoying music with friends.

The W760 helps select the right music for the occasion. Store up to 950 tracks2) on your phone*, and use SensMe™ to pick the music and tracks that match your mood in an instant.

The TrackID™ functionality allows you to identify any song you are listening to on the FM Radio or at a club. And with TrackID™ Charts, you can also review the most searched tracks in your country or anywhere in the world.

The intuitive Media User Interface rotates depending on how you're holding the phone, so you can see everything you need at a glance. Auto rotate works for photos, videos and games3) too. Just twist the phone to change the view.

Get a piece of the gaming action
With the W760, gaming is more fun than ever. The phone allows you to play in landscape mode, with sound from stereo speakers and use of dedicated
gaming buttons like a gaming console. It is preloaded with the latest games, including Need for Speed™ ProStreet - where high speed and utter adrenaline

Too bad the 3.2MP doesn't come with AF.
Well, this phone comes with NFS : Pro Street. Wondeing is it mobile version or ? hmm.gif

p/s : W960i price is dirt cheap for 8GB phone around the market. RM 1,9xx only.
xinanxxx

W series mate. Not K series. laugh.gif
I think SE already start to separate out between this 2.
Only W960i got AF with LED light. hmm.gif Other then latest release W series, all just normal camera phone.
ne3ro
I just fell in love.. too bad I just bought my w580i, and it's not even a month old.. haih..
fx_53_xt
if priced around 1.5k would be very interesting taking into account of the built in GPS receiver
dragna
Sadly the previous W800,810 was the best amongst the W series at the period of time 2MP, AF, and LED flash. SE really turned the picture around for the coming W series.

they are trying to make clear distinguish among K and W series.
they should introduce a series that combine the best of both world.

I think old batch K750i even better smile.gif
If you go through the photo taken, then those use old batch K750i to mod the camera driver, it's simply superb.
I really curious how this phone will perform in photo taking. 3.2MP but no AF and LED light to assist in dark. hmm.gif
David900924
