Sony Ericsson announces T280 and T270 cell phones

Sony Ericsson today announced the launch of the T270 and T280, a stylish duo of affordably priced cell phones set to appeal to differing audiences.

The T270 and T280 cell phones offer classic pocket-sized style. Both phones are less than 13mm slim and built using brushed light metal with a glass finish.

Fast texting and a simple navigation key to switch-on the FM radio or access your contact list. Easy access to the 1.3 megapixel camera and just one click to begin writing a new text message.

As well as its good looks, the T280 lets you take and send a photo in just a few clicks. Browse through your pictures on the phone’s screen or send them via Bluetooth™ to a friend’s phone.

Both the T280 andits sister-product, the T270, are compatible with Bluetooth Headsets such as the newly announced HBH-PV770. The HBH-PV770 headset sits discretely in your ear and offers remarkably clear audio, even in noisy environments, thanks to its Digital Noise Cancellation and fast Automatic Volume Adjustment features.

The T270 combines grown-up good looks with a set of features designed to meet the needs of the busy professional. Access key menu functions such as phonebook, calendar or messages with just one touch and use the built-in speakerphone to take a conference call.

For the T270 it is the business user who just wants the essentials done well.  It has been purposely developed without a camera to keep things simple and is built with a metal housing and clearly laid out keypad to ensure a robust phone that is easy-to-use. 

No pricing has been announced as yet but Sony Ericsson does plan to have the T280 and T270 available to their "select" markets in the first quarter of this year.
