|

Remember Sony Ericsson C-905 Cyber-shot phone? What about the irresistible Sony Ericsson W910i Walkman device. These were some of the gems which Sony must be proud of. Even today consumer interest in both above mentioned devices can be seen in New Delhi's Gaffar market.

Reason being these handsets used to rule mobile phone market some years ago. Back then Sony and Ericsson had an equation. Now Sony still makes handsets under Xperia branding, and Ericsson is nowhere to be seen. Their high-profile split was the talk of town few months back. In January 2012, Sony bought Ericsson's stake in Sony Ericsson for a whooping for $1.5 billion.

During their cozy relationship Sony was allowed to port their patented technology - Cyber-shot and Walkman, to be used under Sony Ericsson branded phones. Later the Japanese giant realized that it was a big mistake. Sony released Xperia S - the first handset to be launched after much celebrated split.
