Industrial design

Sony Ericsson P1 is a thin and sleek UMTS smartphone, with a highly contemporary look. The slim form factor makes the phone easy to carry, hold and use. The main focus in Sony Ericsson P1 is efficient communication and messaging, with the most versatile ways of entering text.

The large bright touchscreen (2.6" QVGA TFT, 262 k colours), the on-screen keyboard, handwriting recognition and the dual function keyboard support easy and versatile messaging. Auto correction, word completion and keyboard illumination all improve the texting and dialling functionality of the phone.

To navigate menus and select items there is a Jog Dial and a Back button close to each other on the side of the phone. A long press on the Back button in Standby view locks the keyboard.

Alternatively the user can use a fingertip or the included stylus to navigate menus and select items.

For Internet access there is a button on the side of the phone, which directly opens the Browser of the phone.

With the integrated 3.2 megapixel camera at the back of the phone, the user can take pictures and video clips and store them in the phone memory or on a memory card. The megapixel quality gives excellent results when images are printed or viewed on a computer or TV.

When using the camera the viewfinder is displayed in landscape orientation. The camera has a photo light which acts as a flash.
