Hannover Germany – Sony Ericsson released a wide range of accessories that will help users make the most of their mobile phones. The accessories made their debut at the CeBit, an annual information and communications technology-focused exhibit and conference, in Hannover Germany. Technews witnessed firsthand the unveiling of these new products.
With these accessories, Bluetooth™ wireless technology is put to use for easy communication with home entertainment systems and higher quality, more reliable headsets, imaging is improved with a new camera flash, and handsfree gets easier with new kits for portable and car use.
The complete range of accessories are as follows:
Bluetooth™ Media Center MMV-200
This innovative device allows you to enjoy and share pictures, video clips and music files on home entertainment systems by transferring content that is stored in your mobile phone to your TV or hi-fi. Plugged into your hi-fi, the MMV-200 transfers music wirelessly from your phone to the sound system; plug it into your TV to share shots and footage with friends and family on a big screen. For large amounts of images or music, you can slot in any memory card – from your phone, PC or digital camera – and use your phone as a remote control to flip through pictures or search tracks. Best of all, pictures and sound run simultaneously and the MMV-200 will communicate with more than one Bluetooth™-enabled phone, so you can invite your friends to share their favourite images and music too.
Phone Flash MXE-60
The built-in picture light that is standard with the latest Sony Ericsson camera phones is handy but a flash is needed for taking true quality shots in dark locations. The Flash MXE-60 simply attaches to the phone and emits a strong flash when the phone’s shutter button is pressed, enabling excellent quality shots with no trace of red-eye.
Music Cable MMC-60
Enjoy your favourite phone-stored music in stereo by using the Music Cable MMC-60 to connect your phone to your hi-fi. If you have a large collection of digital music files, you can transfer them to your phone’s memory stick, connect your phone to your hi-fi and enjoy them through the speakers.
Stereo Portable Handsfree HPM-70
As well as offering handsfree call handling, the Stereo Portable Handsfree HPM-70 allows you to enjoy phone-stored music in stereo between calls. Comfortable and ultra-light silicon earpieces isolate the sound, delivering premium quality and superior bass. And you need never miss a call again as the music pauses when a call is coming in.
Advanced Car Handsfree HCA-60
Excellent sound quality characterises the Advanced Car Handsfree HCA-60. Just put your phone in the holder to handle calls, charge your phone and listen to phone-based music in stereo through your car speakers. The holder also allows you to attach your phone to the car’s external antenna for better reception.
xAkono™ Headset HBH-608
The sleek, stylish Akono™ Headset HBH-608 applies the latest Bluetooth™ technology to deliver excellent sound quality and a very stable connection. Up to 8 hours’ talk time and up to 250 hours’ standby combined with light weight and superior ergonomics makes this headset a must for comfort, quality and reliability.
Akono™ Headset HBH-662
The useful Info display with the Akono™ Headset HBH-662 keeps you informed on incoming calls; who is calling, the caller’s number and, when you hang up it tells you how much time you spent on the phone. Talk and standby time of up to 5/150 hours make sure that you never have to be out of reach, although you can also check the headset’s battery status on the display, so you’ll never run out of power when you least expect it.
