Today we welcome two new T series phones into the world - the T250 and T650.

Here's the T250...

Gracing the lower end of the market, the T250 will be available in silver or black metal and come with a VGA camera and FM radio. It'll be available in Q3 and either support 850/1900 or 900/1800 GSM networks, depending what version you buy.

'Simple sophistication' sums up the Sony Ericsson T250:

London, UK – 8th May, 2007:
'Simple sophistication' sums up the Sony Ericsson T250, announced today. The stylish metal finish of this compact phone gives it a premium feel that up until now has been the preserve of high end models. Add to this a feature set that makes it easy to stay connected, either with friends or the latest news, and you have the perfect partner for keeping in-touch with style.

The T650 meanwhile is a return to T610 styling - here it is in silver and green...

Back up to the higher end of the market, the T650 is loaded with a 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera, stereo bluetooth and triband support across 900/1800/1900 frequencies. Did we mention it's also 12mm thin? Nice. More on these as we get it - news from both devices comes via JAMPB.

Sony Ericsson adds light and colour to its global range:

London, UK – 8th May:
Sony Ericsson announces two new phones that are borne out of their designers love for the materials and colours found in the natural world. The Sony Ericsson T650 fuses illumination effects with a stainless steel finish and scratch-proof mineral glass, whilst the S500, a slim slider phone, reveals desktop and menu themes that change over time.

For live pictures of the T650 please see this thread.

Don't forget the lush P1 - more here. The S500 has also been announced.

Really like the classic design of the T250. T650 is hopefully betterlooking with the blue scheme. I can hardly wait for pics of the light effects.

Long live the T series!

It's interesting to see that the T650 has a 3.2 MP camera and a button layout not totally dissimilar to that of the K810.

[scareface]

wasn't the T serie dead??

[staiano]

It has risen!!!  Where is the flash for the camera though?

[scotsboyuk]

Perhaps they don't have flashes if they aren't Cybershot branded.

Nah, JAMPB say there will be a 850 version. Just wont be quadband. K550 is quadband though.

[scotsboyuk]

As qwerty said, JAMPB mentions that the T250 will be available in a North American version, but what about the T650? Does anyone have any information on whether there will be an American version of that?

[ss99]

Will k850 be announced today or tommorow?

[scotsboyuk]

@ss99

No. From what I am hearing it will be at least another month, at the earliest, before Sophia is announced.

Yeah I have been looking at the k550 for myself.

Wow.. the T650... That brings back a lot of memories

[scotsboyuk]

I wonder what area the T series is supposed to address since there is also the K series?

[helmchen]

hmm funny ... T250 has accept and hang up buttons while T650 hasn't ... will t250 have a new ui?

[helmchen]

by the way ... next will be a T68i clone  

[scotsboyuk]

I'd love a new version of the T68i! Keep the design the same and just upgrade the features.

[helmchen]

so would I

Here's the T650 in blue.
