Sony Ericsson Aino Gets Official in the USA

Tweet

Despite the fact that today is a Motorola Droid day, we can’t ignore any other hot phone out there that happens to become official and/or available. Such is the case of the Aino, a Sony Ericsson creation that was officially unveiled in the USA. No carrier has announced the phone yet but SonyStyle is offering you the unlocked Sony Ericsson Aino starting today.

Sure you’ll say that the unlocked version will probably be way too expensive for your limited budget and you’d be totally right. But if money is no object to you and you don’t want a new two-year agreement anyway then you won’t care about that $599.99 price tag, will you?

Too bad no U.S. carrier seems to want to sell the phone for the moment as the Aino is a handset filled with entertainment and multimedia features that will help you pass the time more pleasantly while you’re on the go.

So let’s look at the official specs of the Sony Ericsson Aino to see what it truly has to offer:

• 3G support
• Wi-Fi connectivity
• 3-inch touchscreen display
• Keypad with dedicated keys
• 3D navigation
• 432 x 240 resolution
• 8.1-megapixel camera with 16x digital zoom, auto focus and flash
• Geotagging capabilities
• GSP and Google Maps support
• Stereo Bluetooth
• 8GB microSD memory card
• USB connectivity
• Remote Play, Media Home and Media Go features
• Music player and Music Recognition
• DLNA support
• Charging base
• Dimensions:

• 1000mAH Lithium Polymer battery

As you can see, the Aino offers a bunch of unique features which will let it connect to your PlayStation 3 or your PC and get all the content you want to take on the road with you. Features like Remote Play, Media Home and Media Go are going to help you get all the content you want from said devices and play it while you’re on the go. But is the Aino worth all that money?

What do you say? Are you impressed or do you keep thinking about that 199.99 Motorola Droid?
