Sony Ericsson just announced its Q1 financial results, and as expected, things aren't looking too bright.

q12009


Sony Ericsson will have to perform another cost savings program, which will include a further reduction in employees of approximately 2,000 people.

They're hoping it'll be completed in mid 2010.

Also announced today was the next Entertainment Unlimited announcement date. This will be on May 28, and based on what Sony Ericsson wrote in the press release, it will not be about Idou, but a new product.

You can read the entire press release yourself over at Sony Ericsson's press lounge.

if sony want to increase their projected sales, they should release a phone that very high-end and affordable with lots of features like wi-fi maybe.

im sad the many employees of them will have no work by 2010.

I don't understand why they keep losing money. W595 for instance is rumoured to be sold out here in Belgium! They sure do sell confused.gif!

And the C905 is still supposedly the best selling phone on contract.

The number of sold phones dropped with almost 10 million units. That's quite a bit. They're not selling that well any more. Fortunately, they're working very hard to get back on track, and I've agreed to help them find a way to just that. I like the plans so far.

Ericsson make other stuff, so are there own company is probley doing well.

Thats probley cause of them A2 phones with buggy software and hardware issues, once you buy 1 phone from a manufacture and it freezes/reboots and doesn't fuction properly or falls apart, you ain't gonna buy anymore phones from that manufacture.

I think W580 and the cracking keys is more to blame... sonyericsson.gif doesn't have a very good reputation among my friends, as 2 of them had a W580 and one an S500. The newer A2 phones are great though and I hope they're going to bring sonyericsson.gif a bit of extra income.

I do hope though they drop the Sagem handsets thumbdown.gif

Best of luck I guess, It'd be a real shame to see sonyericsson.gif get worse figures than this next quarter as they really do have some fantastic phones.

fantastic phones??? these are??? not 1's i've used.
There first batch of A2 phones were the worst horrible things the W910 & w890, the second batch the C702,W760 were ok, but within the 10months and various firmware updates on the C702 it never ever correctly geotagged a photo and when someone reported this issue to se with samples, they basically said yes it does work numbnuts.

Have you got a C905? No?
Have you got a W595? No?
Well I own both of them and I can happily say that they're vast improvements in the old A2 phones.

In Singapore, there are many many many people who uses SE Instead of Nokia, LG or Samsung.

Just take my class as an example

38 people, out of the 38, 18 uses SE, which is almost half the class already, and most uses W910(the girls), and also W890. The latest A2 phone i seen in my class is C702 only x_x
