Storage

The total amount of memory available remains undisclosed. However, initial reports suggest that it will have the same amount of memory (1 MB) as its predecessor, the stylish T310.

While it is quite small compared to other models on the market today, it is substantial enough to told all the necessary pictures, ring tones, and games.

Connectivity

Sharing content with other telephones or PCs is easy. Users can send and receive images using the infrared port on the left side of the phone.

It is also possible to connect the Z200 to a PC with a RS232 cable. And, naturally, WAP is another option. The Z200 comes with WAP 1.2.1 and OTA (Over-The-Air) settings. And lastly, it is possible to create image gallerys and use WAP to download images into the phone.

Conclusion

The Z200 is created to compete in the cheaper younger crowd. The predecessor of the Z200 was the T300 and T310. Unfortunately the T300 didn't appeal to the youth. If you've ever seen it, it looks like a bar of soap. Well Sony Ericsson soon realized this and followed Nokia's lead in creating fashion phones.

Although the Z200 does not have many high end features that other pricier phones possess, the it does have style. The main focus is affordability, design, and looks. If the lack of built-in functions like a FM radio or camera is a factor, the option to purchase accessories to attach to the phone should not limit consumer's choices.

With its design and features, the Z200 is a unique product which also offers an alternative to the standard clamshell phones. Sony Ericsson has announced that the Z200 should be release in North America in Q4 2003.
