It’s Back

It was on May 2009 when the Sony Ericsson W995 was launched. This has proven to be quite a historic date as this was the last handset to bear the ‘W’ label which for those who don’t know, stands for the Walkman line of devices. However, it has recently been confirmed by Sony Ericsson that the revival of this particular mobile phone family is on the horizon. The best Sony Zylo mobile phone deals are available online. There are also many sim only deals when you just need a SIM card.

Now, almost exactly a year after the last Walkman handset was released, we are set to welcome the new era of Walkman mobiles. And the device the mobile phone mogul has decided to pass the torch on to is the new Sony Ericsson Zylo. While it may not have the familiar ‘W’ on its name, it definitely has that Walkman swagger we’ve all missed during its year-long hiatus.

Best in the Biz

When it was released in the 80s, the Sony Walkman was nothing short of revolutionary. When Sony teamed up with Ericsson, they decided to breathe life into their once dominant technology by releasing a line of devices that focused on portable music. Not only did it bring the most high-tech mobile phone features during its time, but the Walkman line of devices was more popularly known for being one of, if not the best when it comes to the mobile music category.

The new Zylo hopes to do just that with its enhanced Walkman player. One of the many noteworthy features of this unique music player is the TrackID function which is able to provide users with the title and artist of a particular track they happen to hear wherever they may be. This awesome function is one of the Walkman’s main claims to fame as 2009 alone amassed a whopping 129M TrackID lookups worldwide.
