While you love birds are busy being smitten on a lazy Valentine’s Sunday, Sony Ericsson is busy dishing out new goods from Barcelona, Spain. Mobile World Congress is sure to bring some interesting news in the mobile space this week, and SE is kicking things off with the pro version of the Vivaz. <\/p>\n

What makes it “pro,” you ask?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Well, it has a slide-out QWERTY keyboard for starters.<\/p>\n

Like the non-pro version, it will be running S60 5th edition on a 640 x 360 HVGA touch screen. The Vivaz pro has a 5.1 megapixel camera is 3 megapixels less than the Vivaz, but is still capable of recording 720p HD video. I’m just hoping that its video recording capabilities are as awesome as the 8.1 megapixel packing Vivaz, which totally blew us away here at MobileCrunch<\/a>. We’re just happy that this is coming with North American 3G bands and it will be coming around some time in the late second quarter. Hold your breath, here’s the full press release:<\/p>\n

Press Release<\/strong><\/p>\n

February 14, 2010 – Barcelona \u2013 Sony Ericsson Vivaz\u2122 pro,announced today, adds a QWERTY keyboard to the touch screen offering, delivering a user experience optimised for messaging and entertainment. The full QWERTY keyboard allows consumers to communicate quickly and efficiently via email, SMS or social networking updates.<\/p>\n

Just like flagship phone Sony Ericsson Vivaz\u2122, announced in January, Sony Ericsson Vivaz\u2122 pro allows consumers to produce and broadcast their best experiences in HD video. The open platform also allows users to personalise their entertainment experience by downloading great applications through PlayNow\u2122 and the Symbian Developer Community.<\/p>\n

“Having announced Sony Ericsson Vivaz\u2122 in January we are now adding a sister phone that includes a QWERTY keyboard along with the touch screen for a superior messaging and entertainment experience,” said Daniel Sandblom Marketing Business Manager, Sony Ericsson. “Sony Ericsson Vivaz\u2122 pro meets the increased consumer demand for QWERTY devices without compromising on any entertainment features.”<\/p>\n

Sony Ericsson Vivaz\u2122 pro features the new design philosophy ‘human curvature’, which will become a consistent feature of the Sony Ericsson portfolio going forward. Designed to mirror the shape of the human body, and at the same time delivering a precise and compelling way of interacting with the phone, Sony Ericsson Vivaz\u2122 pro is instantly recognisable.
