Live it up with the new Sony Ericsson G705

Get your own personal assistant with the new Sony Ericsson G705 mobile phone. The 2.4” screen enhances the premium Web experience, whether you are searching Google direct from your idle screen, checking e-mails through the phone’s Exchange ActiveSync capabilities or using Wi-Fi to access the latest news. The G705 lets you juggle your day the easy way.

This elegant slider phone, complete with large 2.4” screen, allows users to surf the Internet at high speed with turbo 3G and its full HTML browser — just use the shortcut key and you’re straight to the Google search from the idle screen.

Page a bit too small? Use the illuminated zoom Web shortcut key or just tilt the phone and it automatically switches to landscape view.

“The G705 is ideal for those who need a bit of help organizing their busy life,” said Chris Lee, Sony Ericsson’s vice president for marketing in the Asia-Pacific.

“This life-enhancing phone has everything you need to keep track of your daily activities and is perfect for keeping in touch with friends. It also allows you to stay fully up-to-date, thanks to the full HTML browser, e-mail support, and desktop RSS feeds — all delivered at turbo 3G speeds,” Lee added.

The G705 keeps you updated with the information most important to you via RSS feeds that are delivered straight to your phone’s desktop. Whether its sport scores or news from around the world, be the first to break that story to friends or work colleagues.

Complete with 3.2-megapixel camera and video capabilities, upload your favorite and funny moments straight to the Web for friends all over the world to see. 

Time to relax? Use the phone’s Wi-Fi connection to upload pictures, create a picture blog or download music and videos from your favorite websites. Entertain your friends and family with all your great images on the 1GB memory card, or relax with the sounds you want through the built-in FM radio.

On your way to an important meeting but can’t find your way? The inbuilt aGPS combined with Google Maps for Mobile and Wayfinder navigation means that you will never have to ask for directions again — and it will even help you find a restaurant or bar to relax with friends and family.

In addition, Sony Ericsson announced a partnership with Google, meaning that YouTube will be integrated into selected upcoming models from Sony Ericsson.

This capability will allow users to instantly download and upload video directly from their phone to YouTube. The G705 will be YouTube-compatible and further models will be announced at a later stage.

The new G705 ensures that users stay one step ahead of the rest with the following features. There is a large 2.4” screen to view websites and e-mails with high clarity and HTML browser to surf the Net.

Automatic rotation lets you switch from portrait to landscape with just a tilt of the phone. The Google shortcut key lets you go to Google from the idle screen with one key press. 

The G705 supports GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS/HSDPA 2100. It will be available in selected markets early in the fourth quarter in two colors: silky gold and majestic black.
