Sony Ericsson Satio (Idou) Photo Gallery

on September 27, 2009 – 4:15 pm72 Comments

The Sony Ericsson Satio, previously known as the Idou, has been announced as a concept device during Mobile World Congress 2009. At the time, the mere idea of introducing a 12MP camera in a smartphone was baffling, and it received a lot of praise from the general public, although many were wondering whether or not the Idou will see the light of day as a production device.

Well, the Idou eventually became the Satio, and is now almost ready to roll through the markets. With S60 5th Edition on board, a ton of UI improvements introduced by Sony Ericsson’s knowledge and past experience from UIQ, a heart-throbbing 12 MegaPixel camera, GPS, WiFi, accelerometer, the Satio is definitely a great contender to the hottest/geekiest/most capable smartphone of the year award.

Fortunately, we were able to snag a prototype unit of the Satio, even before they go into production mode, for a full week. Here, we present to you an unboxing of the very special Prototype box that the Idou was delivered in, as well as a full gallery walkthrough of the different Satio angles. It’s a massive handset, but keep your eyes peeled on FoneArena as we will later bring you a direct photo comparison between the Satio and other touchscreen offers from Nokia like the N97, 5800 XpressMusic and the X6. Until then, here is the picture gallery for you to enjoy. (Remember, you can click on any thumbnail to access the full resolution photo).

    Guys….. this phone is great but not good…… for Newcomers to touchscreen, this phone is very good…. but for those who have used capacitive touchscreen, this phone is very much frustrating to use as it uses resistive touchscreen.

    • Ankieee
