The new Sony Ericson Aino is making its space in the market. You will find the screen pretty big. The plus point we have noticed in this set is its keyboard which is gentle and easy to use. Battery timing of these sets is not good but this set will give you good battery timing. As it’s new right now so a little expensive.

Sony Ericsson Aino Review
The Sony Ericsson Aino is a slider phone that had an entire room excited when at release, it claimed to have the ability to playback content directly from your PS3. But alas, it's not the PSP phone; instead you receive a solid and heavily featured phone with the ability to access media anywhere.
While it's seldom going to win the plaudits of the Sony Ericsson Satio, the Aino (pronounced I-no) is a lovely phone in its own right, and manages to edge above being basically solid into 'impressive' territory. It doesn't have the new Symbian interface; instead relying on Sony Ericsson's standard UI, which means that feature-wise it's not as rich.
The first thing you notice is the weighty feel of the handset (as well as the startlingly dark hue the Obsidian Black is sporting, with your eyes feeling like they have been sucked into a vortex of mobile phone gravity). It's a reassuring weight, with a button layout that will be familiar to a quantity of the Sony Ericsson fraternity.
While this phone doesn't have the hidden D-pad that a PSP phone might sneak out to titillate us with, it does have some decent media capabilities that are clearly extended beyond the range of the phone itself as is shown by the location-less Media Go functionality.
What's weird is that while the Aino has a touch screen, it only works in media mode, meaning they would not have known it was there unless they were told. It's easy to imaging a quantity of people poking their phone normally to no avail and then being perplexed when the touch screen fires up in media mode.
Anyway, the whole thing was had a lovely feeling to it, and watching videos on the included dock was easy thanks to the pleasant angle offered.
Audio was excellent on both music and video with the bundled wireless buds, and you get the feeling that in this phone Sony Ericsson has had a lovely think about what it takes to make media on a phone work well. The touch screen in media mode worked well, perhaps not in the same sensitivity league as the Satio, but still a decent effort nonetheless.
However, it's as well there's bundled wireless 'buds given there is no 3.5mm jack, which you would have expected on such a media-centric phone. At least you get an 8GB microSD card in the box, which makes up for the teeny 55MB of memory on board.
When docked and closed, the phone also doubles as a nightstand clock, with a flick of a virtual arrow needed to be pulled up in order to release it from its silvery time prison. They found this impossible to do, and it took 20 goes to get right. Either they could not master the action needed (SURELY not) or the touch screen was a tiny glitch; either way, a weird choice to unlock the screen.
However, there is as well as a small button on the top that can do the job for you, so that might make more sense.
The camera, an 8.1MP job, is over adequate but sadly pales by comparison to the 12.1MP behemoth attached to the Satio. It's easy to forget that the C905 has an 8MP camera and has long been regarded as five of the best camera phones around, so you cannot say much bad about a phone that is 15.5mm thick yet still takes some great pics, with a plethora of decent settings including geotagging and face detection.
The interface being standard means that other options, like messaging or accessories, aren't much to write home about, as SE has stuck with roughly the same UI principles for years. It is not a criticism of the handset per se, but after playing with Satio you cannot help but crave a tiny bit more.
They briefly saw the Media Go application (syncing with your PC) and the Remote Play options demonstrated by Sony Ericsson, but they get the feeling it's something we're going to want to have a much longer play with to find out whether it's easy to set up and if they want to have regularly updated content from your PC.
However, it's as simple as docking every night to have a new set of podcasts ready to listen to every day, then that is an exciting prospect. The Aino is lovely phone from Sony Ericsson, and as a 'middle brother' from the trio released, it's a lovely effort indeed.
They like the layout of the buttons and the chassis, although they would have loved some PSP branding and more to be made of the touchscreen. However, we're ready to reserve judgment until they receive a proper chance to play with it, so look out for our in-depth review of the Aino coming soon.
The protocol relies on HSPA connectivity, while the 55 MB internal memory is expandable through microSD cards, five 8 GB included in the package. Do not miss the GPS, FM radio and Bluetooth. The battery, according to official data, allows autonomy of 4.5 hours talk time and 367 hours standby time. Price not reported, while the availability is scheduled for September.
AINO is an innovative mobile phone that combines the traditional keyboard touch interface for easy access to multimedia content, and with five push, the user can enjoy music, videos and photographs, seen on the screen high-quality 3 “. AINO is able to connect remotely by Wi-Fi or 3G access to the Play station 3 and so on streaming all content in the Play station, from movies to music and photos.
Final Words and Conclusion
This phone really surprised us as it provides you vest coverage. The concept of this phone is not like Sony Ericson so this change was good. The 8 megapixel camera really brings it out. I think this phone is worth every penny you should really give it a chance.
