Sony Ericsson Satio Mobile Phone

Candy Bar
This style of phone is rectangular in shape with no flip design features. It was designed to have the feel of a real phone, both durable and nonsense free. The size ranges in both width and length depending on the model.

Flip/Clamshell
This style of phone has two parts, connected by a common hinge, which allows the user to close off the inner face when not in use; thus, the inner key functions and screen are protected.

Slide
This style of phone has two plates which slide apart with pressure, unveiling the inner screen and key functions. It is useful for people who don’t like flip phones, but still like the design of having two different interfaces.

Swivel
This style of phone is a lot like a flip phone, but instead of opening courtesy of a hinge, it has a hinge that allows the user to rotate the top face to the side and up, in order to expose the inner face.

Some phones come with built-in modems for Web browsing and email while others come with wireless capabilities like a celluar phone connection. If the phone does not come with this feature, it is often possible to buy an add-on that allows for some of these capabilities.

Some phones will have a small microphone built-in that will allow you to record much like a Dictaphone would.

Many phones come with music players already installed. If you would like to be able to listen to music on your phones, make sure the playable music format on your phone is the same as your music collection.
