Sony Ericsson Zylo And Spiro Walkman Phones

Sony Ericsson has added to new Walkman phones to its range with the launch of the Sony Ericsson Zylo and Sony Ericsson Spiro.

Sony Ericsson have announced two new Walkman-range cellphones, and they seem to have been looking in the Pokémon book of names for the duo. The Sony Ericsson Zylo with Walkman and Spiro with Walkman each support FLAC lossless audio together with TrackID, but also throw in social networking integration with Twitter and Facebook.

It supports a range of music formats which include HD FLAC, which is a high quality lossless audio codec, which is designed to deliver high end sound. Other features include dual band HSPA and quad band GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity, Bluetooth and an FM Radio.

The Zylo gets a 3.2-megapixel camera, 2.6-inch QVGA display, Bluetooth A2DP and a microSD card slot to augment the onboard 260MB of storage. It has UMTS/HSPA together with quadband GSM and an FM radio, though no hardware GPS as far as we can see. As for the Spiro, that has a mere 2-megapixel camera, a 2.2-inch QVGA display and no 3G, but keeps the Bluetooth and FM radio. You’ll definitely want a microSD card for it, however, as it has just 5MB of onboard storage.

On top of the the Sony Ericsson Zylo has a 3.2 megapixel camera, a microSD card slot that can take up to a 16GB microSD card and a range of social networking features which include integration with Facebook and Twitter.
