Sony Ericsson pumps up the style on the fashion handset with flashy lighting and eye-catching colors.
Sony Ericsson announced its latest fashionable handset, the S500, which is set to arrive on North American soil this fall. The sleek slider features a compact design at 3.9 by 1.9 by 0.6 inches and is rather lightweight at 3.3 ounces. The S500 will be shipping in two colors, "Mysterious Green" and "Spring Yellow," which, according to Sony Ericsson, were selected to reflect nature. However, the more notable style feature is the handset's lights that automatically glow to indicate different times of the day or the changing seasons. The S500 will also feature various menus that will constantly change as the day moves into night.
The S500 does include some substance with its style, and offers up EDGE connectivity, Bluetooth 2.0, USB support and a 2-inch QVGA display. The handset also has a robust multimedia feature set with a 2-megapixel camera and a music player with support for MP3, AAC, AAC+ and eAAC+ files. The S500 also supports stereo Bluetooth and has a Memory Stick Micro expansion slot.
The Sony Ericsson slider rounds out its features with some calling and messaging options, such as a speakerphone, SMS, MMS and mobile e-mail. Pricing or specific release dates for the Sony Ericsson S500 have yet to be announced.
