MANILA, Philippines - Sony Ericsson has announced the local availability of its first GreenHeart phone that uses a Windows Mobile OS.
The new Sony Ericsson Aspen is an affordable business phone from the environmentally friendly GreenHeart line. It is now available in Sony Ericsson Experience Shops and authorized dealers nationwide.
The newest edition to the successful Sony Ericsson GreenHeart portfolio, Sony Ericsson Aspen allows easy multi-tasking, combining the touch experience and a real QWERTY keyboard.
Panels can be changed during the day, and Slide View will give quick access to commonly used features.
The Sony Ericsson Aspen allows users to view and edit office files easily and comfortably with one-touch operation or one-click Internet access.
The QWERTY keyboard is made for fast and easy typing. Users can also secure the phone’s contents through the Microsoft MyPhone service, which remotely erases phone data when the handset is lost or stolen.
The Aspen is a social network tool as well with Windows Live and Facebook access, plus Google Maps, YouTube and Skype.
Its 3.2-megapixel camera with 4x digital zoom has a self-timer, multi-shot function and smart contrast.
For its media functions, Aspen has the Sony Ericsson media player and Windows Media Player Mobile, with stereo speakers, album art support, Bluetooth stereo and equalizer.
For Web connectivity, the Aspen has Google, Internet Explorer Mobile, web feeds and pan and zoom viewing.
This touch-screen phone also has 3D games, FM radio, Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, Adobe PDF Reader, Microsoft Office Mobile, and Outlook Mobile.
The GreenHeart line is a key pillar in Sony Ericsson’s product portfolio. The sustainable innovations found in the GreenHeart products will eventually roll out into the broader portfolio.
GreenHeart phones are made from as much as 50 percent recycled plastics. They have electronic, in-phone manuals to replace paper versions, saving over 90 percent in paper.
With its reduced product packaging, GreenHeart phones also save up on the environmental impact of transporting the product.
Waterborne paints are used for painting these products, thus reducing exposure to volatile organic compounds from regular paints.
