Sony Ericsson has announced two new phones which it says was in some undefined manner - a result of a competition on the company's Facebook page.
The Sony Ericsson Mix Walkman phone is a music based device, while the Sony Ericsson txt pro has a full slide-out qwerty keyboard combined with a friends application for social networking. Both phones integrate full touch functionality with a corner user interface similar to that available in the Xperia mini range.
In a statement, Quentin Cordier, Global Product Marketing Manager, Sony Ericsson said: "We wanted to take advantage of our extensive Facebook fan base when announcing these phones, bringing the fans closer to both our products and brand. We are really pleased that consumers liked them for their music and social media functionality and expect them to become great additions to our overall portfolio of entertaining phones."
The Sony Ericsson txt pro combines a 3" touch screen with a 3.2 megapixel camera and full slide-out qwerty keyboard. Its integrated friends application enables users to add their five best friends to see at a glance updates from their Facebook and Twitter feeds.
Both phones will be available globally in selected markets from sometime in Q3 2011. Prices still to be announced.
