I recently got to lay my hands on Sony Ericsson’s SATIO, a smartphone that the company launched last year. I must say that the phone has an impressive spec sheet while going through which you realize that the company has plugged in the best features from its WALKMAN series and the CYBER SHOT series together. The USP of the phone clearly is its 12.1 megapixel camera as well as the fact that it is the first phone from SONY to run on the S60 operating system.
I reviewed the phone on 8 key parameters: Design & Looks, Multimedia (including Camera), Interface & Touch screen experience, Storage capacity, Browsing Experience, Battery Life, Connectivity and Pricing. Let’s check out whether the impressive spec sheet translated into an equally impressive performance:
The music, as is expected of a Sony Ericsson phone is amazing. The display is quite simple with the list of songs, easy to play, with nice and large buttons to hit when you need to make things shuffle or repeat. The FM radio is very basic and easy to use up/down and left/right buttons to tune and change through stations. The handset also comes with YouTube and BBC iPlayer. If that is not enough, you also have Google Maps.
FINAL VIEW – The only reason you would want to spend Rs 30000 and go for a SATIO is the multimedia functionality that it offers especially the camera. Take the camera out and you have MUCH MUCH BETTER options available in the market today! Go for it, ONLY if you can’t live without a great camera!

Good review on various parameters. I had a look at the phone and was disappointed. Yes the screen was good. I don’t seriously understand why people are obsessed with higher mega pixels. Bigger mega pixels does not guarantee a better picture. And at Rs. 30K its is not worth a buy unless your packet is always a king of good times.
Thanks for the detailed review…The features might be great but the look is not very impressive…. also as u say dat even the touch is not good, so i guess its overprized for wat it offers…

Sony satio is really an amazing phone with so many advanced features. These features can allure anyone around the world to buy this but I think its price is a big constraint somewhere.

I really got flattered by knowing about the functionality and advanced features of this phone. But as you mentioned its price is way out of my reach. Any ways very nice blog. Keep posting.
