The company shipped 19.8 million handsets during the quarter, which is up from 13.8 million in the same quarter a year ago. The success is due to its increased shipments of the Walkman music phones and its Cyber-shot line of cameraphones.
The Walkman phone line included W850, a tri-band/UMTS slider phone with storage capacity for up to 1,000 songs. In an effort to strengthen its position in the mobile music arena, Sony Ericsson also updated its PlayNow service to support full track, over-the-air (OTA) downloads to high-end Walkman models. The updated service is branded as M-Buzz.
