Comparisons Featuring Sony Ericsson Satio (Idou)

Short Review

  • The Sony Ericsson Satio (Idou) features a compact design with dimensions of 112 x 55 x 13 mm and a weight of 126g, making it portable.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT resistive touchscreen displays 16 million colors at a resolution of 360 x 640 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 210 ppi.
  • Powered by a 600 MHz Cortex-A8 CPU and 128MB of RAM, the performance is adequate for basic tasks, although it may struggle with more demanding applications.
  • The standout feature is its 12 MP rear camera, which includes autofocus but lacks optical image stabilization, and it can record video at 480p.
  • The 1000mAh battery capacity offers limited longevity, and it does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Symbian 9.4 with Series 60 rel.
  • 5, the software experience may feel outdated compared to modern smartphones.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks NFC and 5G support.
  • The device is available in black, silver, and Bordeaux colors, adding some aesthetic variety.
  • Overall, while the Satio has notable features for its time, it shows limitations in performance and battery life.
  • Its design and camera capabilities remain its most appealing aspects.
