Just like the C905, the new C510 is another photo-focus mobile from Sony Ericsson, but it doesn’t have the big megapixel-count like the C905. Let’s find out what it has to be your pick and what doesn’t cast a good impression on you.
Specs

  • It has a 240X320 pix, 262k color screen
  • It weighs just 92grams with 107×47x13mm dimensions.
  • Bluetooth is there, but no infra-red and GPS.
  • It houses a nice 3.2mp camera
  • Memory Stick Micro memory card is also there.
  • It supports HSDPA, GPRS, EDGE and 3G
  • Java is available
  • Polyphonic is  available
  • I 4hrs talk and 14days stand by battery life for 3G and 10hrs talk and 16days standby for GSM.

Design

With its low key front panel and nicely contrast silver/black, the C510 has a really smarty feel with its candy bar looks. Undoubtedly, it’s a real treat to operate and hold this slimline phone. Its 2.2” QVGA scratch-resistant display looks bright and quite clearer for image viewing and operating various menus. You will find the same familiar user interface, for which Sony Ericsson is quite well-known. But you will also find a motion sensor accelerometer there too that helps to change screen orientation automatically when the phone is moved landscape and portrait positions.

Features

When it comes to features, this C510 houses a 3.2mp camera that has a nice autofocus system with other nice gadgetry like Smile Shutter, Face Detection and LED flash. As it’s a HSDPA equipped and 3G enabled handset, it nicely supports video and audio downloads and has lots of other Sony Ericsson’s well-known online based applications. For fulfilling entertainment quota, it has video and music players as well as FM radio. Some extra apps have also been included as well that include Skpe internet phone calling, Facebook application and instant messaging. It also includes a youTube app and Google maps as well.

Performance

With its impressive voice and sound quality, dependable connectivity and overall nice calling performance, the Sony Ericsson C510 is unparallel in this class of phones. Battery life, design, features, applications, connectivity and lots of other things seem to work quite fittingly in their respective class.

The bad

Though it looks quite perfect as a mid-tier handset, but you wouldn’t find a lot of must have gadgetry that is widely available in those handsets that seem quite attractive to almost all of us.

Unique selling point

  • A real treat for those who want a robust and impressive camera in their handsets
  • Impressive candy bar design that makes other fall in love with it
  • Replete with nice features and catchy apps.
