It's strange to come across a Sony Ericsson (SE) phone that's not either a Walkman or a Cybershot. However, with its new range of phones, Sony Ericsson has done away with those monikers altogether. Instead we have phones that purport to do a lot of everything. The Sony Ericsson Aino is one such phone. It combines a "limited" touch-screen, an 8MP camera and full-fledged connectivity and multimedia options. The Aino is a slider phone that employs a 3.0-inch TFT screen capable of displaying 16m colors at a resolution of 240x432. The screen is a strange beast since it switches between being a capacitive touch-screen to a regular screen when the keypad slides out. However, it's not exactly a "limited" touchscreen, since Java apps like Opera Mini are able to use it perfectly. But more on that later. The Aino is not bad looking but it is a little thick when it is in touchscreen mode.

Bottom Line
The Sony Ericsson Aino is a very good multimedia phone that commands a rather high price-tag.
