Unfortunately no playstation phone but still a nice device, the Sony Ericsson F305 is a real game phone and with this the Swedish Japanese joint venture starts her F-Series, or the 'Fun and Entertainment' Series. By holding the phone horizontally and shaking or moving it the games are operated, this is why the device can be compared to the Nintendo Wii, only a lot smaller.
The Sony Ericsson F305 is focused on the young mobile caller that wants to have more than just the standard installed games on the mobile phone. Because the Sony Ericsson F305 is equipped with a very well-balaced movement sensor games like bowling and fishing can be played in a superb way.

With the Sony Ericsson F305 your favourite game is only seconds away. The device has stereo speakers so the sound is very good when you're playing games and of course this also makes sure that the integrated musicplayer will do perfectly well. The 2 inch 262.000 colours display is large enough to have a lot of fun playing games.
Despite of the Sony Ericsson F305 having a standby time of 400 hours the battery of the slider could become empty a little faster when you're playing games all the time. That is something Sony Ericsson has found a solution for, it's namely possible to connect a so-called Power Pack to the device that enables you to play some more hours.

Of course, the Sony Ericsson F305 can do more than gaming. When you open the device you will find the latest Sony Ericsson applications. The 2 megapixel camera makes sure you can capture those special moments in your likfe and you can store them onto a memorycard or send them via bluetooth. The internal memory of the F305 is 10 MB, but don't be sad because Memory Stick Micro (M2) memorycards are there for you.
Not only the display and the menus of the slider can be adapted, you can even change the covers of the F305 and Sony Ericsson delivers two extra covers with the device as a standard.
The Sony Ericsson F305 will come to Europe from the fourth quarter. If you want to read the full possibilities of the Sony Ericsson F305 you can take a look at her
