Sony Ericsson S700

The Sony Ericsson S700 was introduced by Sony Ericsson in 2004 as their flagship mobile phone model.

Sony Ericsson designed this mobile phone in the style of their acclaimed Japanese-market only SO505is with its rotating form factor and dual-front design, with the back styled like a digital camera and normal phone functions in the front.

It is probably the first GSM phone under the Sony Ericsson brand to be engineered primarily by Sony instead of Ericsson. The 1.3 megapixel CCD camera sensor with 8x digital zoom is similar to the one used in Sony's Cyber-shot line of digital cameras. The S700 has a Sony Memory Stick Duo memory card slot for external solid state storage. The maximum capacity of the Memory Stick that is compatible with this phone is the 128 MB MagicGate. There is also a Java engine by Japan's Hi Corp integrated into the phone for 3D graphics support.

There are currently three versions of the phone:
*S700i: GSM 900/1800/1900 for all regions except the Americas and Chinese-speaking nations.
*S700c: GSM 900/1800/1900 for Chinese-speaking nations with Chinese keypad and language.
*S710a: Updated model for US market: GSM 850/1800/1900 with EDGE (replacing FM stereo) for Cingular in the USA, and for Rogers Wireless in Canada.
