We're still smarting from the
apparent cancelation of the fabulously powerful K850 from AT&T's 2008 lineup, but as consolation prizes go, the
Z750a ain't bad. That being said, it's solidly seated in the midrange, which seems like an unusual place for Sony Ericsson's very first carrier-launched 3G handset for the US to be; the 2 megapixel camera isn't going to "wow" anyone, and the choice of colorful, ultra-gloss shells definitely limits the phone's appeal to a certain demographic. On the bright side, the music player has an XMB appeal to it -- users of other recent Sony Ericssons will feel right at home with the app -- and it's one of the better built-in players currently available on any handset. The Memory Stick Micro slot makes that player just a little trickier to use for anyone that isn't already using Sony Ericsson kit, but
c'est la vie, we suppose. Check out some shots in our handy dandy gallery here.

Anyone know if the p1i will get the uiq 3.3 upgrade??
It's about time they replaced the Z525a with something. Too bad it's not that great. When are they going to build a decent feature packed high end clamshell? I do have to applaud them for designing a phone with keys that weren't built for papa smurf finally.
anyone know exactly what date these are coming out?
is that a second camera on the inside of the phone? finally video calling?
I was wondering the same thing. It's hard to tell from the pics if that's just the hole where the camera normally goes or if it's actually a video call camera. It does sort of look like an empty hole, which wouldn't be surprising. There has to be something that sets the Z750a apart from the normal Z750; that may be it.
For At&t, you're not going to get a camera, because they still have crappy video share, and not full fledged video calling.
So for the Z750a, there is no camera, that in fact is a light meter (for dimming LED's/brightness to conserve power)..
Rogers might be getting a version with the camera, I'm not sure..
oh... disappointment once again... why is it taking so long for video calling in the States? even with 4G coming up? no one wants video calling?
Alright! Where the hell is this phone? None of the stores in myarea has it. Whatever happened to "EARLY APRIL" release? MEH!
the phone dosent look that good
