Sony Ericsson Announces the W715
Sony Ericsson also announced today a Vodafone version of the W705 and confusingly named it W715. The phone's got everything its twin already features, but with a few extras as well. Like the W705, it features a 3.2MP camera with an LED flash, Wi-Fi, Clear Audio Experience and Clear Bass (a la W980 and W902), a YouTube player, Shake control and SensMe. It also has a relatively large 2.4" screen and a metallic body.
What's different, though is that it also has a GPS module (like the G705, the non-walkman version of the W705), which can be used with Vodafone's Find&Go service, which enables users to find "their nearest restaurants, hotels or shopping centres all within a few clicks on their new mobile phone". There's also the standard package of navigation software that comes with every aGPS-equipped SE phone.Some people should also be happy to know that the W715 now comes with an 8GB M2 card, unlike the 4GB one that ships with the W705.
There'll also be a new colour - Galactic Black (pictured), in addition to the Luxury Silver one we've come to know from the W705.
Again, I remind you that this is a Vodafone-branded handset. Despite that, there is a possibility that there will be a non-branded version coming out in the Nordic countries.
