Nothing new here, we heard all the specifications from the rumours circulating the internet, but it's official: the 8.1 megapixel cameraphone Sony Ericsson Cybershot C905 is announced by the company a their 17th of June launch. I really wouldn't be surprised if now a manufacturer launched a phone with HD recording! The Wi-Fi, A-GPS, and HSDPA make sure the phone stays future-proof, although it would be preferable that it had a larger internal memory and a rich Operating System.
“The C905 Cyber-shot™ and S302 Snapshot have been developed to make us all better photographers! That means making it easier to take great shots and never missing that magic moment.” said Sven Totté, Head of Imaging Marketing at Sony Ericsson. “Although both have photography at their core, the phones are very distinct; the 8.1megapixel C905 is a viable alternative to a digital camera and the S302 is perfect for those who don’t want to miss a moment and like to send or Bluetooth™ their photos to their friends.”
Specifications and release date after the jump.

[...] by Meraj Chhaya on July 13, 2008 – 12:33 am It will be difficult to face off against the Sony Ericsson C905, and these leaks just excite the market. First was LG with the KC910 no-image leak, but now Samsung [...]
omg i want this phone its amazing, when does it come out?
“The phone is to be released Q4 this year.”
I want my touch Diamond. 18 July….waiting 4 u!!!
what is Q4? PLEASE?
Fourth quarter of the year, between October and December
Looked at the whole market, even the new iphones and nothing seems to come close to this phone, I am able to Upgrade with O2 now and want this phone.
Someone tell me a release date…
P.s – Q4 is not a date.
The only thing good about this phone is its camera, otherwise the N96, Touch Diamond, and even the iPhone are better.
Of course Q4 isn’t a date, but it gives you a clue that it should be released for Christmas
I WANT THIS PHONE……………….bye bye to my K800i. waiting for U babe.
It’s going to take some time before it gets here, you should get a K850i for the meanwhile, as I see you are a fan of Cybershots. Just by the way, the K850i’s review is coming very soon
@Meraj, wainting for that review? Wii it be this month or the next?
u know…ur net….sheet…lol
M.Husseins last blog post..Exemplo de negociação de um blog descontinuado
Next month lol…
No way. GPS and location tagging of your 8.1MP images. Not to mention the already built in camera for video phone calls. Beat that.
It's missing the internal memory
I can't waaaaaaaaaait for this phone,
but anyone please tell me how much it costs? pleeeease (in US Dollars)
The price isn't available yet, but as soon as it is released, you will see on the eBay widget.
why has sony not increased there screen capabilities to 16million they still stuck on 252
if they just improved the screen i would of chose this over the nokia N96
Maybe they feel it's enough for them
