Sony Ericsson W610 Walkman phone announced

After announcing the much-rumored W880i, Sony Ericsson has introduced a second Walkman phone today, the Sony Ericsson W610, which is not as thin as its sibling, but just as impressive.

The Sony Ericsson W610 measures 14mm thick comes equipped with a 1.9 inch 262K TFT LCD display, 2.0 megapixel camera with auto focus, Walkman player 2.0, 512MB Memory Stick Micro (M2) included in the box, card slot, up to 25 hours of music playing time and Bluetooth Audio Streaming (A2DP).

Sony Ericsson will be launching the W610 in the second quarter of this year. And as for the price, we know nothing.

The more affordable of the two Walkman branded phones that Sony Ericsson announced today is the W610. This quad-band GSM/EDGE handset will be available some time in the second quarter of this year. It features the easy to use Walkman 2.0 music player application and is capable of up to 25 hours of continuous playback from a full battery charge. The battery should be good for up to 7 hours of talk time, as well.

Other multimedia highlights include the TrackID music identification application, a 2 megapixel autofocus camera, Picture Blogging support, a built-in FM radio with RDS support, and a Memory Stick Micro (M2) memory card slot. A 512MB card is included in the box, which should provide enough storage for about 470 tracks transferred over from the included Disc2Phone PC software.
