AT&T plans to launch the Sony Ericsson C905a, an 8.1-megapixel camera phone, and the W518a, a stylish clamshell with interactive music controls and Facebook access, starting July 19.
The Dallas, Texas-based company said the C905a is focused on photos, offering a 2.4-inch scratch-resistant mineral glass screen and built-in 8.1-megapixel camera with a xenon flash, red-eye reduction and face detection.
The handset also has camera functions like BestPic to capture seven successive photos with one click and Smart Contrast filters to compensate for areas that are too bright or dark.
Additional features include an FM radio, instant messaging and AT&T services such as Video Share, Music and Navigator.
The company said the Sony Ericsson W518a lets users update their Facebook status and upload photos from the handset's 3.2-megapixel camera.
It also has interactive music controls like Advanced Shake Control to shuffle, skip and control volume with a flick of the wrist and Gesture Control to reject incoming calls or snooze the alarm with a wave of the hand over the camera lens.
"The C905a is the best camera available in a mobile phone today and the W518a's unique Facebook user interface and Walkman music features will elevate how our customers express themselves," said Michael Woodward, a vice president at AT&T.
Both the Sony Ericsson C905a and W518a will be available starting July 19 for $180 and $50 with a two-year service agreement.
