Sony Ericsson is a joint venture established on October 3, 2001 by the Japanese consumer electronics company Sony Corporation and the Swedish telecommunications company Ericsson to make mobile phones. The headquarters of the company are as follows: the head office in London, UK and the incorporated in Sweden. The research and development teams are not present only in the UK, but in Germany, Sweden, Japan, Pakistan, India and the US.
The market success recipe for Sony Ericsson mobiles came from the huge experience in communications specific to Ericsson and the highly advanced technologies powered by Sony. The consequence was that both companies ceased making their own mobile phones. Due to their policy and seriousness, by 2008, the company was the fifth largest manufacturer of cell phones in the world. Sony Ericsson follows companies like Motorola, LG, Nokia and Samsung. The fame, the popularity and therefore the sales gradually increased with the launch of the Cyber-shot and Walkman mobile phone series.
Sony Ericsson’s products include the following: mobile phones, mpbile music devices, wireless systems, wireless data devices, wireless voice devices and hi-tech accessories. The company’s total profit of the overall sales reached the impressive figure of 73 million Euro in 2008. In July 2008, Sony Ericsson had 9,400 employees lead by Nelson Mozol (President), Anders Runevad (EVP) and Carl-Henric Svanberg (Chairman). Sony corporation has half of the company and the other 50% belongs to Ericsson AB.
As we’ve already said, Sony Ericsson increased its market preponderance with cyber-shot and Walkman collections. In 2005, on March 1, the company came up with the K750i incorporating a 2 megapixel camera and its platform mate the W800i, which were the first Walkman cell phones ever produced. The performance of this telephone was its capability of playing 30 hours of music playback and two low-end phones. In October 2005, P990 was launched, the first mobile phone based on UIQ 3. The other major achievement that Sony Ericsson had was the Cyber-shot brand, launched in 2005 by the K750.
This was one of the most popular Sony Ericsson phones. Back then, the memory card space was very new, which would explain the success. The difference between the Cyber-shot and the Walkman resides in the media viewing features and cameras which is higher in the Cyber-shot. There are five large categories of products developed by Sony Ericsson on the whole : the W Walkman series music phones, the Cyber-shot branded line of phones, the BRAVIA-branded collection, the UIQ smart phone line of mobiles, and the Xperia range of cellulars.
