Sony Ericsson K610i
Leading the pack for handset announcements at 3GSM, Sony Ericsson announced the K610i. The K610i is an update to the K600i that was announced last year at the same event.
This Sony Ericsson handset comes in a few disguises. Its known as the K610i for Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa and as the K610c for Mainland China.
Further confusion arises when you learn that certain operators have their own branded versions e.g. Vodafone V630i. Exclusive to Vodafone, the V630i is essentially the K610i but retooled with a musical bent.
On top of that, Sony Ericsson recently announced another version of this phone - the K610im. This will be in classic black and is an i-mode version of the K610i which will be on O2. Interesting.
Obviously, Sony Ericsson see this handset as a hot potato for sales. Anyway, lets concentrate on 3s K610i.
The K610i 3G handset measures 102 x 45.2 x 16.9 mm and weighs no more than 92g. This sorta size and weight is becoming the norm for many 3G handsets at this time. A nice start.
However, it sometimes pays not to overlook some of the other 3G competition on the shelves. In terms of size the new LG U400 is 99.8 x 48 x 18.9mm and weighs 114g. The Nokia 6234 is 108 x 46 x 18mm and 110g. I list these simply to offer comparisons.
The K610i is made out of plastic yet feels rather sturdy. You can see the VGA camera used for video calls towards the top of the phone and to its left - somewhat hidden away is the ear speaker slot. Very discreet.
