Sony Ericsson G700 – affordable and pocket-friendly smartphone

In addition to the G900 we reviewed earlier, Sony Ericsson has rolled out its less sophisticated brother in arms - the G700, which lacks WiFi connectivity and packs in a less potent camera (3.2 Mpix and no auto focus). As for the rest, it is nearly identical to the G900.

The Sony Ericsson G700 is set to arrive in Q2 2008.
