Key features
5 megapixel camera
The main camera is 5 megapixel and includes auto focus, a video stabiliser, 16x digital zoom, photo flash,
red-eye reduction, BestPic™, Auto rotate, face detection, Smile Shutter™ and Photo fix. All this means
high quality photos. The photo flash can be used as video light when recording videos. The photo flash
can be used with BestPic™. The camera is protected by a lens cover. The horizontal user interface allows
for easier camera handling. A photo can be shared as a picture message, email message or on a web site
with friends or family. Photos can also be transferred to another phone or computer using any available
transfer method, such as Bluetooth™ wireless technology or USB cable.
Video telephony
Video telephony lets you share moments with friends and family as they happen or save them to share
later. You can also use video telephony to see others while talking to them. Video telephony takes people
connecting to the next level and is the next best thing to being there in person.
TrackID™
TrackID™ enables the user to identify a track playing on the radio in the phone, or a track playing in the
room. A few seconds of the song is sampled, the phone connects to an online database, which identifies
the song and returns title, artist and album information.
2.4-inch QVGA scratch resistant screen
The large 2.4-inch (240x320 pixels) full graphic QVGA 262k colour screen enhances viewing, facilitating
high-quality multimedia and entertainment.
GPS
With GPS and location-based services such as Google Maps™ for mobile and Wayfinder Navigator™,
you can find out where you are and how to find your way. The phone supports geo tagging. When a photo
is taken, it is tagged with geographic data, meaning that the location where the photo was taken can be
shown on a map.
BestPic™
A unique function for Sony Ericsson camera imaging. Taking a single photo or even a burst of photos does
not always catch the moment, which may have been just before or just after the camera key was pressed.
BestPic™ is designed to solve this problem. Press the camera key half way down and the camera starts
capturing photos. Press the key fully down, and a series of photos appears automatically. The photos
range from left (just before pressing the camera key fully down) to centre (camera key fully down) to right
(just after pressing the camera key fully down). The centre photo is the default photo, but not necessarily
the best one. Browse the photo series and save the best photos. BestPic™ can be used with the photo
flash.
Auto rotate
Capturing a portrait photo with a horizontal camera, usually results in a photo which must be rotated
manually when viewed later, in the phone. Auto rotate is a new feature, which enables to register how the
phone is oriented when the photo is taken, whether it is held in portrait or landscape mode. This
information is saved with the photo. When viewed, the photo is automatically rotated and presented with
the same orientation as it was originally taken.

TV out
TV out can be used to show and share your photos on TV. Photos will be shown in VGA size. The TV-Out
Cable ITC-60 (sold separately) is necessary to connect your phone to the TV.
Video camera
The camera captures a video recording and saves it in the phone or on a memory card. A video clip can
be shared as a picture message or email with friends and family or using any available transfer method,
such as Bluetooth™ wireless technology. The phone supports QVGA size video recording.
Web feeds
A built-in RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Reader is used in combination with the Internet browser. When
browsing, frequently updated content such as news headlines or podcasts can be received as feeds.
Web feeds ticker
News headlines you subscribe to can be shown in standby using Web feeds.
HTML Web browser support

browser which supports a complete Web standard suite.

computer. View captured photos and video clips in an intuitive timeline view. Play animated slide shows
with music and different moods. Tag your photos to find them faster. The built-in sensor in the camera
ensures that all photos are rotated correctly.
PictBridge™ – photo printing
Print photos from the phone using a USB cable directly to a printer, without a computer or photo editing
software.
Push email
The phone supports push email, a method of pushing new email messages automatically to mobile
devices. Push email increases mobile email usability by delivering email in the background (similar to SMS
or MMS), eliminating the need for the user to manually check for new email.

Set up call
Set up menu
If you are on a call when the commands “Set up
Call”, “Putting all other calls on hold” are sent, the
user will see the “Let SIM card setup call” user
confirmation text. If OK is pressed the current call
will be put on hold and the new call set up. If the
phone is on a call when the command “Set Up Call,
disconnecting all other calls” is sent, the user will
see the “Let SIM card setup call” user information
text. If the OK key is pressed the current call will be
disconnected and the new call set up.
Incorporates a SIM Application Toolkit Menu Item
into the ME main menu structure.
If an Alpha Identifier is supplied in the Set Up Menu
command, this is used as the SIM AT entry in the
ME main menu. If null alpha identifier is supplied
and several items are found in the menu, the
default title “ONLINE SERVICES” is used. If the
SIM AT Menu Item is selected by pressing Select,
all the items sent in the Set Up Menu command will
be available for selection, in the same way as the
