This sexy slider from Kyocera is designed to be the center of all your good times on the go. With support for Virgin Mobile's "VirginXL" wireless content services, MP3 playback capabilites, a memory card slot, a VGA camera with flash, and a speakerphone, the Slider Sonic is a high end phone for high energy fun.
The Sonic's sliding design allows you to reveal the keypad with a push of the thumb. The phone's 176 x 220 display supports 262,000 colors for stunning image and video viewing. The right side of the phone sports a quick camera button and a protective cover for the microSD/TransFlash memory slot (the phone ships with a 32 MB card). Meanwhile, the phone's VGA (640 x 480) camera unit resides on the rear of the phone, along with an LED flash. Most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button. The top right side of the unit houses an extendable antenna while the phone's charging port is housed on the unit's bottom edge. The phone also features a standard jack to accept universal hands-free headsets.
The Sonic has all the latest calling features folks have come to expect. The phone comes with built-in Virgin Mobile "superphonic" ringtones plus a vibrating alert. Superphonic ringtones feature real music tracks and more are available via Virgin Mobile's VirginXL service. Ringtones and pictures can be assigned to specific callers so you don't have to look at the phone to know who's calling. The built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear and voice activated dialing makes calling up to 50 of your friends, family and associates as easy as saying their names. There's also a built-in address book that can store up to 500 contacts for quick and easy management of phone numbers and email addresses.
The Sonic covers the messaging basics with support for sending and receiving MMS-based text, picture, and sound messages. AOL instant messaging is also supported. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile email and text messaging users.
The Sonic's VGA camera makes it easier than ever to snap good pictures and share them with friends via picture messaging. The camera features a built-in flash for getting great shots in low-light situations. The phone boasts custom Virgin Mobile graphics-- screen savers, wallpaper and menu icons-- that let you dress up your phone to suit your personality. More graphics, wallpapers and screensavers are available from the VirginXL service. Demo versions of Bejeweled and Tony Hawk's Underground are included with the phone, and a big selection of additional games can be downloaded from the VirginXL service.
