The Sony cell phone represents the major Sony Ericsson product since, for quite some time now, the two companies associated to combine one’s expertise in consumer electronics and the other’s technological leadership in communications. The founders of Sony Corporation were Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita, however, they are not the parents of the Sony cell phone. The company’s headquarters are at Minato, Tokyo, Japan. As a corporation, Sony services a huge electronics market that includes not only phones but video stations, TV sets, computers, semiconductors, play stations and other consumer electronics as well. In 2008 the company’s total income was US$ 4 billion from the total revenue of US$ 100 billion. Plus, the number of employees working in Sony facilities worldwide was around 180,000.

Historically speaking, Sony maintains a high quality standard in the storage and recording items they provide, as they did not adopt those discoveries issued by other manufacturers and standard bodies. The standard products designed and manufactured over the years include Umatic (~1968), Betamax (1975), Betacam (81), Compact Disc (82), 3.5 inch Floppy Disk (82), Video8 (85), DAT (87), Hi8 (88), Minidisc (~90), Digital Betacam (~90), miniDV (92), Memory Stick (98), Digital8 (99), PSP Universal Media Disc (~2003), HDV (~2004), Blu-ray Disc (2006). People will therefore know more about such consumer electronics than about the Sony cell phone that is a relatively new creation. Therefore, the correct name for a Sony cell phone is Sony Ericsson mobile.

After their association, Sony and Ericsson became famous in the field of cell phone design due to their Walkman and Cyber-shot phones, getting to the fifth place among the top companies of the world, after LG, Nokia, Samsung and Motorola. The most famous Walkman mobiles were by far K750i and W800i, each with a great music playback range and two low-end phones included; both mobiles were launched in March 2005. No later than October in the same year, another Sony cell phone – the P990 - was released, being the first mobile phone based on UIQ 3.

Another successful Sony cell phone belongs from the Cyber-shot brand. This one – the K750, was also launched in 2005 and became one of the most popular Sony Ericsson phones. Unlike the Walkman had the disadvantage of a poor camera, the Cyber-shot phone included both great cameras and decent viewing media.
