V801SA Handset Offers Sha-mail and Movie Sha-mail Access Overseas
November 13, 2003
Vodafone K.K. announced that on December 1 it will commence nationwide
sales of the V801SA by Sanyo, a new 3G handset compatible with Vodafone
Global Standard (VGS) for use not only in Japan but abroad as well. With
the launch of the V801SA, Vodafone K.K. will simultaneously offer new
Vodafone live! mobile internet services exclusively for VGS.
The V801SA is a dual mode handset that operates on Vodafone K.K.’s 3GPP-based
W-CDMA network in Japan (with 97.7% network population coverage at the
end of October 2003) and is capable of voice roaming in 81 countries and
regions on GSM, the de facto mobile communications standard for 2G. In
addition, the V801SA is capable of packet data roaming via GPRS in 26
countries and regions including the USA and China, making it possible
for customers to enjoy Vodafone live! contents like Sha-mail picture messaging,
Movie Sha-mail video messaging and web browsing in the same way abroad
as in Japan.
Furthermore, Vodafone live! for VGS will offer customers 3G-exclusive
rich and high-speed content like Chaku-uta ringsongs, and downloads of
high-resolution QVGA-size (320 x 240 pixel) wallpaper and 15 to 30 second
video clip files. Contents convenient for overseas travelers will also
be available.
In conjunction with the launch of Vodafone live! for VGS, Vodafone K.K.
will offer “Vodafone Happy Packet”, a packet data communications discount
service that offers savings of up to 80%. With Vodafone Happy Packet,
VGS customers will be able to send large-size mails and enjoy high-speed
web browsing at even greater value. Vodafone K.K. will also strive to
expand network area coverage for greater convenience.
Overview of V801SA (by Sanyo)
- W-CDMA + Triband-GSM handset
The V801SA is compatible with 3GPP-based W-CDMA and the three main GSM
frequencies (900/1800/1900MHz), allowing customers to communicate in many
countries and areas in the world located in the Asia-Pacific, Europe,
and North America as if they were in Japan.
- Compatible with Vodafone live! for Vodafone Global Standard
V801SA customers can access Sha-mail, Movie Sha-mail and web contents
both in Japan and abroad. E-mails with attachments of up to a maximum
200 kilobytes can be sent and received, making it possible to enjoy high-resolution
Sha-mails and Movie Sha-mails of up to 40 seconds in length at 144 x 176
or 96 x 128 pixel resolutions. In addition, fast speeds up to 384kbps
allow customers to enjoy rich contents like Chaku-uta ringsongs and downloads
of high-resolution QVGA-size wallpaper and 15 to 30 second video clips.
*Use of Vodafone live! requires a 300 yen monthly subscription.
- Audio and Video Recording Features, 3D stereo twin speakers
In addition to audio and video playback features, the V801SA comes with
a function to insert subtitles into recorded video files, audio and video
file search and track information display. The V801SA also comes equipped
with 3D stereo twin speakers at the front for rich 3D sound when playing
back ringtones and audio and video files.
- Innovative “slide-type” design
The V801SA uses a “slide-type” design to combine the best of both worlds
of clamshell handsets (large screen and compact) and candy-bar handsets
(which let customers confirm information at a glance). Customers can conduct
basic operations on the V801SA’s large screen 2.2-inch QVGA screen while
enjoying its compact size.
