This is the first phone ?. have a 12 mp camera?. All i can say its very nice. but the question how much it is?. i guess it will cost 30k up.
by the way, is the word Satio an acronymn of some sort? because as far as i can remember, sony is fond of acronyms like vaio, clie, bravia, etc. the only thing that doesn’t have an acronymn amongt its product is qualia. don’t know with the sony ericsson though if they do the same thing.

@john,wha: a leg and an arm. maybe two arms.
its a sony product, and targeted at iPhone-gravitating users so what can you expect.
disclaimer: my phone is a SE K618i.
ciao!
So okay, it is a 12 mp camera but what about video recording? And it is so thick…. I think ill settle for a standalone camera…. Phones with decent MP is better if it is slimmer… Just my two cents on the issue
i’m still enjoying my C905.
all this talk about megapixels makes my head hurt, if they put a tiny sensor and lens on it; it’ll look good on your phone but as soon as you blow it up on your pc you’ll see how bad it is.
sir yuga
My PS3 can recognise the Satio if i hook it uu via USB?
i have read alot of details about this phone..i am really interested..when will it be available in the philippines and how much does it cost?

i thought it would the first phone to use Symbian foundation OS?
would symbian foundation OS be the same as s60 5th?
yuga, could you please confirm it with your source. we are curious and excited as everybody else. many thanks:-)
sir yuga,or anyone around here:
does anyone have any idea what the price range will be for the Sony Ericsson Satio when it hits the Philippine Markets?or is it still early to give one?thanks
My guess is that it will be near the price of the SE Xperia X1
imagine how expensive is da x peria is !?
and imagine how much better is satio is ?
its 40 k and above since d experia is 42
(
im gonna start to stop spenting my alowence
den buy this think its better dan nokia n97
)
same as SE Xperia X1?!ouch!
will the camera lens of the Satio be Carl Zeiss?because if it isn’t Carl Zeiss then the 12.1 megapixel camera will be useless and pictures will have poor quality
q3 ? so around september ryt ?
i wonder how much it will cost in PHP
guys keep me posted..shuyin_5@y.c.
pm me if its already available in the phils.
thanks…
it’s pretty coo! very great shot on unexpected events. no need to bring slim digital camera =)
GOD please make this phone the phone of the year and make this phone last in my hands … what do u mean its da same flatfrom used in nokia 5800 or wuatever it is
uhhm.. can you give estimation of the price for Satio.. Ive read about Satio and i saw (Satio and Satio a) WTF? is there two versions? hahaha. really love the features.. i hope you can give estimation of the price..
I guess it won’t have a Carl Zeiss lens. However, image quality is still great. Look here http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_satio_idou-review-358p5.php
There are two versions. I reckon that they have to do that because US carriers have weird frequency bands, way different from carriers elsewhere in the world.
This will come with S60 5th ed instead of the Symbian Foundation OS due to time constraints.
^_^
i would like somebody to tell me where to get this phone.
reliable cellphone, I always wanted in my dreams
is this now available in the market? what is the official price?
can they put AMO LED screen and carl zeiss camera plus a 1 G snapdragon cpu on this? if they can then this will be the final phone ***nothing follows***
^_^v

As of 2day, a source frm SE main declard that Satio will be availble in the Phil.this December..Man, i beg make it really on its affordble price or else!..i cant buy.:’(
December?! sheez… cant w8 for it…. i bet it will cost 40,000+php
im waiting for this phone to be available in the philippine market so that i can buy the C905 at reduced price.
- i belive this phone is already available in ebay.ph for bidding and the price is 30k plus and i’m not sure but i think i saw this phone at 4th floor of market-market. this phone has great features and i’ll buy that soon.
Satio will be available first week of December.
Price range is P31-37K.
A sales rep also mentioned they will give
P5,500/month for 6Months Installment – Credit Card.
Can’t wait. =]
wow! i found out this cost 37K in SG. but what if it goes to phils.? and they add all those import taxes on the consumer? T_T
Its already available at the price of Php 25,000 only @ SM.
really? 25k? where in SM? i would like to buy it..
I found it at SM San Lazaro, I forgot the name of the store but it is located at the upper floor. The store is near at escalator. When you enter at the SM San Lazaro go turn to your right and then go up to the upper floor. The price is also cheaper comparing to other Malls like Robinson. And some phones in Rob is cheaper than SM. Which I don’t know why.
Guys this phone is super amazing and it’s cost of 31k ph. So SE lovers this is it…. i guest you love it too. Disadvantage of this is no Office Doc. But its very interesting to use.
to already are u sure it is only 25K?lol! double check it. i’m sure it is more than 32K.
piping, check it so you would know im not kidding. Then make comment here again if what i’ve said is such a joke.

i already buy this satio phone here in saudi arabia it cost 2,449 riyals..its super amazing guyz the camera quality so great and also the video its HD very amazing..
i do already have the SATIO Red editon and i do have a problem with it, my SATIO had a scratch all over it,the main front housing,where LCD located on its side, can i replace the old housing? where can i purchase that?? anyone i need help. THanks!!
Which is better, Iphone or Satio?
i have satio, Satio is better when it comes to picture (obvious b’coz of 12.1 mp) plus a lot of applications. Try to handle with care, of course for the purpose to prevent from scratches. Very good video also,so clear looks like a prof. video and up to 16 GB of memory. (sold separately).
iPhone is better when it comes to touch screen,, smooth transitions to touch but picture is not as good as Satio, if it is iPhone 3GS much better b’coz of it’s internet,, faster than Satio.
