Hey guys, do you remember how thrilled you were when you bought your very first slider cell phone? Of course, slider phones have gotten far more common today, but what would you say if we brought to you such a product, which also let you enjoy amazingly high quality audio and video? Well, the new KDDI Walkman Phone, the Xmini, does just that and more.
The slim-n-sexy Xmini comes with a 1.8” LCD screen with QVGA resolution. Apart from this, it has 4GB of built-in memory and a touch sensor. You can now store and enjoy hours of music and video content on your mobile phone. Isn’t that really cool?
Apart from the above, the LISMO Video service lets users view entire movies and TV soaps either on their PC or their handset. The sound and picture quality in either case is absolutely stunning. Additionally, the EZ ‘Chaku Uta’ Full Plus Mobile Music Download service allows you to download AAC audio files as well. Coming in a riot of bright colors, the KDDI Walkman Phone, the Xmini, is slated to create a huge splash by December end.
