Sony Ericsson Aino preview: First look

29 May 2009
Sony Ericsson Aino is without a doubt one entertaining slider. It does pretty much all the stuff that the other Sony Ericsson feature phones do, but does it better. Throwing in some heavy multimedia...

During phone calls, is the touch screen active?

In other models/brands during calls, i've 'accidently' hung on people because my ear touched the screen.
Massive touchscreen flaw if ever from a end-users POV.

    informer, 02 Jun 2009hi, please someone answer that very interesting question: ... morewell we dont know yet
    but i think you can accept ur calls by touching
    if you cant dont forget that u get a bluetooth headset and plus you can do the any button to answer option so its not that big deal :)
    btw sony isnt stupid to forget a small thing like this :)

            the UI icons seem really lame, kinda remind me of the old boring samsung ones, not like SE at all. apart from that this looks nice.

                This phone would have been perfect if it were slimmer, had 3.5mm audio jack, more interesting backside, touchscreen implemented everywhere, and if it were set to be released this summer.
                Unfortunately it's fat, has no audio jack, has the plainest backside we see nowadays, touchscreen can be used only in multimedia menu and it will be released in October~!

                    Altamash, 30 May 2009SE has really changed their strategy n plans.. Large screen... moreWith the Sony slider phones I have used, you can either slide open to answer or press a button to answer. I'd expect this phone to work that way as well.

                      what a weird design. the end/call keys and navigation pad are also in the slide out keypad, making the phone too long.

                      and finally vga video recording from SE. and using microsd instead of memory stick? nice move.

                          The phone looks nice! It has been a pretty long time since the last time I could say that... u.u. (w610i?)

                            SE has really changed their strategy n plans.. Large screen, better UI, good cam+good music is very much unlike SE... Will have to wait n watch... But guys one question... If we get a call, do we have to slide the phone to answer? or yet do we have to slide press green call key to answer? can the screen be touched to recieve a call or to decline it??

                                  Aino is realy a great device but why can't the screen be "touchable" everywhere else except the media and camera screens? Maybe than the keyboard would be useless but.... why not?? :(

                                      I love the height of this phone!
                                      Tall lean and unique :)
                                      Just like me, hahaha.

                                      I must admit, i was very surprised by this announcement as well!
                                      Looks like SE really is indeed listening to their customer demands!
