London, 02 March 2005 – Sony Ericsson has announced the J300, which provides a 3D gaming engine and easy downloads of video clips, games and ringtones at an entry-level price. There are many ways to get creative by composing ringtones, creating wallpapers and restyling the phone from a colourful selection of Style-up covers.
The J300 is a phone created for entertainment and socialising. Aside from the default three colours, more Style-up covers are available in a variety of designs. The J300 can be personalized according to mood, fashion or personal taste. Music files can be downloaded for ringtones, as can video clips of movie trailers and music videos.
“If you are looking for a fresh new phone at a thrifty price, you don’t need to be restricted only to basic games,” says Jan Wareby, Corporate Executive, Vice President and Head of Sales and Marketing of Sony Ericsson. “The J300 offers a fantastic gaming experience in both 2D and 3D, including the famous Rayman 3, and it handles fast moving action, rich graphics and glorious colours, but it’s also a great phone for voice and text communications.”
Sony Ericsson is providing a free game download of Rayman 3 via Sony Ericsson’s PlayNow content download service for purchasers of the J300. Sony Ericsson’s PlayNow service lets users download fresh new musictones direct to their phone in just three clicks. A range of branded games from a number of major game publishers will be available on PlayNow for the launch of the J300. 2D and 3D games and other content for the J300 will also be available from operator’s download services. The J300 will be available starting in Q2 2005.
