The Cyber-shot C905a is packaged with several innovative features and sleek design. The 2.4” scratch-resistant mineral glass screen provides users with a clear view. The mobile phone boasts an 8.1 megapixel camera that seems more like a digital camera. Equipped with dedicated camera keys and shortcuts it facilitates users to easily point and shoot. The 3G slider phone is offered with face detection and a xenon flash with red-eye reduction capabilities.
“Sony Ericsson has created two signature phones that enhance the quality of photography and social networking on a phone and take advantage of exciting AT&T services like AT&T Navigator and Video Share. 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,” remarked Michael Woodward, vice president, Mobile Phone Portfolio, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets.
The C905a employs BestPic technology that enables users to capture seven photos in a row just with one click, allowing the shooter to choose only the finest photos. The Smart Contrast feature balance for areas those are extremely bright or dark. The device comes with Memory Stick Micro (M2) storage that offers up to 16 GB space. It features with a range of multimedia functionalities like AT&T Video Share, video recording, AT&T Music, FM radio, Mobile Email, AT&T Navigator and instant messaging.

Featuring a broad range of capabilities packed into a slick, easy-to-use slider form factor, the C905a is a versatile choice, whether you’re an avid photographer and early technology adopter, or a proud parent who always wants your digital camera by your side. The W518a is a compact, stylish phone for multitasking consumers who must stay connected to their friends.
