We still remember how Elm and Hazel of Eco-warrior campaign impressed us with their service and range of features. And now Sony Ericsson Cedar seems to be reaping the good works and reliability achieved by its predecessors. Combining a two color schemes with smooth lines it exhibits a pleasing looks before its on lookers.
Beautiful Body
The cedar, though, looks beautiful, stylish and light weighted, it is not a small phone. Weighing just 84 gram with 111 x 49 x 15.5 mm dimensions, it will fell bulky in your pocket. Besides, we are not impressed by the ergonomics of the phone, at the back, it curves from both ends resulting in loose grip of fingers. When we take the gadget in our hand, we got to know that the weight of the phone lies in its center. So, if you don't hold it tight, it may tip out of your mitts.
Display and Keyboard
We don't have any complaints against the display of the device. It features a TFT 256 K colors screen, having screen of 2.2 inch. Beneath, its reasonably big screen, there lies an attractive keyboard with buttons big enough to press. For navigation, it has square size four way key with a round push button in the center.
Shooting Zeal
Sony Ericsson Cedar Contract Deals comes with a 2 MP camera for clicking pictures. In order to improve the quality of the pics, it is equipped with Geo-tagging and other features. We can enlarge the pictures shot with it up to 1600x1200 pixels. Unfortunately it lacks an LED flash, so shooting in low light will be a bad experience. The gadget is capable of recording video clips as well. The QVGA camera of the phone records 15frames per second. Moreover, it does not come with secondary camera for video chatting and conferencing, so you have to shoot your still and present it the other caller during the conversation. But, we don't know, how many people would bother to use it.
