Concept of the New Sony Ericsson K660i Cyber-Shot.
2007-10-09 12:53:00
Let me present you a new concept of Sony Ericsson K660i Cyber -Shot .In my opinion, the device design is pretty cool, but technical characteristics do not meet modern demands.As we can see on the picture, concept of K660i is equipped with 2,1 inch QVGA 262k color display, 2mp camera and supports Memory Micro (M2) memory format. We also can see that the device is 3G enabled and equipped with front camera for video calls.It could be very hard to differentiate it from another model of Sony Ericsson's Cyber-Shot series - K770i. Basically, the concept designer thinks that it’s only the camera that would make all the difference.However, I think that if this concept is implemented, it will have great demand and it will find its costumers.
