Sony Ericsson S302
Discontinued 17th June 2008
Sony Ericsson have tweaked their naming convention
a little for the new S302 - "S" now stands
for "snapshot", previously you might have
expected this to be a K-series "Kamera" phone.
The S302 brings some of the features of a Cyber-shot
phone to this very lightweight 2 megapixel device, adding
a photo light, photo fix function and camera blogging
to what is otherwise a quite basic fixed focus camera.
It weighs just 79 grams and measures 101 x 46 x 11mm,
which makes the Sony Ericsson S302 a very slim and lightweight
device. But looking at the technical specifications,
it is easy to see why the S302 weighs so little - the
display is a basic 2" 176 x 220 pixel panel and
the S302 doesn't support 3G. Despite the light weight,
the S302 has a very reasonable 7 hours talktime and
12 days standby time, comes with an FM radio, stereo
Bluetooth, expandable memory and USB connectivity.
With features like these, the Sony Ericsson S302
is hardly going to set the world on fire, but then it
does look to be quite inexpensive, and given the light
weight it will probably be quite popular.
Sony Ericsson say that the S302 is due in early Q4,
in Crystal Blue and Thunder Grey colour schemes.
