Sony Ericsson F305 : PSPhone?
All the signs are there… X and O buttons, a little Playstation-esque d-pad and the dedicated ‘game’ shortcut button has the familiar joypad outline on it. Except it isn’t.
The new handset unofficially outed by the Unofficial Sony Ericsson blog in a completely unofficial manner is the new F305.
The F stands for fun apparently, and no genuine connection aside from the vaguely cosmetic has been made to Sony’s successful handheld. It has already been branded the PSPhone by at least one blog (this one…), and it is obviously designed with an eye towards being a gamer’s handset. It comes preloaded with this season’s hot new bandwagon, motion sensitive games!
Completely unlike the Wii (or LG Secret, or LG Orsay, or the N95….), there are a range of waggle-based games designed for use with it. In an impressive touch, albeit a relic from the heady days of Battleships on the Ericsson T68, Bluetooth multiplayer is also available.
It is also replete with all the great things you grow to expect from a new Sony Ericsson with RDS radio, Track ID, memory card support and amusing colours (”Polar” White and “Mystic” Black).
It is probably alright at making and receiving calls too, but does that even matter anymore?
