We first saw the Sony Ericsson Satio back in February at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, then named the Idou and flaunting an impressive spec list. The most impressive item on that list was the 12.1 megapixel camera that was set to earn the Satio...

Overall, the Sony Ericsson Satio is a great camera phone, but the S60 UI feels very dated and stifles the experience somewhat. We were impressed with the music player sound quality and data speeds, but felt let down by the awkward web browser and fidd...

Sony Ericsson is outstanding when it comes to camera phones, music phones and phones with FM radios. Since this latest smartphone has all these plus GPS, wi-fi and more, it should be a real winner, right? Well, maybe, but this is also a touchscreen pho...
With an improved interface, a better touchscreen and a 3.5mm headphone jack, this would be a near-unbeatable phone. The handset looks snazzy and feels good in the hand. The camera is terrific and de livers great results. The music software is easy to u...
