Summary

Summary
Sony Ericsson has unveiled its latest fashion phone, a dinky clamshell called Jalou. The Jalou is a clamshell device that comes with a 2-inch QVGA display that doubles up as a mirror at the press of a...

Summary
We have finally got our anxious hands on the elegant midget Sony Ericsson Jalou......

Summary
Jalou is a fashion phone from SE. It's the first phone to feature the Walk Mate concept which walks with you and updates your zodiac signs and special events in the year- all presented in a fashion concept. It comes with a 3.2 MP camera, music player, ...

Summary
Sony Ericsson describe the Jalou's shape as a "facet cut jewel form" and although the look is reminiscent of the Nokia 7070 Prism, the Jalou is a much more sophisticated handset.

Summary
Sony Ericsson Jalou

Pros
Really compact size ; keypad has a nice clicky feel ; 3G and Bluetooth A2DP wireless connectivity ; microSD card slot for expanded memory

Cons
Main LCD panel is too reflective ; lacks a camera flash ; doesn't come with PC data cable and microSD card

Verdict
The design resembles a gem with its polished, glossy surface and clean-cut lines (read: Epic bling). The only downside to this is that it attracts fingerprint smudges too easily. A 1.3-inch front display which notifies you of incoming calls and text ...

Summary
The Sony Ericsson Jalou is a clamshell cellphone aimed strictly for fashionistas: its 3.2 megapixel camera and 2-inch screen won't have any spec eggheads getting hot and bothered, but that's not the point. The 3G Sony Ericsson Jalou is a piece of ...

Pros
Even compared to the dwarfish Sony Ericsson T715, the Sony Ericsson Jalou is minuscule. Measuring just 73x45x18.2mm, it won't just fit in any handbag, but any purse too. The sparkling case is gorgeous, and the external screen, which shows caller ...

Cons
As you'd expect from a fashion mobile, the Sony Ericsson Jalou is not a smartphone. We've got no issues there, but what we can't forgive is the irritating lag. You can actually see the homescreen animations jutter, even when you're not downloading or ...

Verdict
Samsung and LG have been pushing their "chic" touchscreen Armani and Prada phones for years, but compared to the Sony Ericsson Jalou, they're size 18s. The Sony Ericsson Jalou is the new model on the catwalk: dim, but petite, striking and desirable. ...

Summary
Gone are the days when fashion phones were more popular than a Kate Moss-branded dress. However, like a particular trendy slice of vintage finery, the genre is making a comeback and the Sony Ericsson Jalou is leading the charge. But is this trendy ...

Pros
Looks great, helping bring back the fashion phone, Google Maps, 3G

Cons
No 3.5mm jack, laggy UI

Verdict
A decent stab at resurrecting the fashion phone, even if Sony Ericsson's refusal to use a 3.5mm jack remains infuriating

Summary
The Jalou's jewel-like design is a clear indication that it's aimed at a female audience -- its main display even doubles as a mirror -- but this fashion phone offers plenty of substance to go with its style. Cramming a decent camera and MP3 player ...

Pros
Convenient size ; unique design ; crams in a decent camera and music player, among other features

Cons
Screen is too shiny ; small number keys ; SD card slot is inconveniently located under the battery

Verdict
It could have been all style and no substance, but the Sony Ericsson Jalou turns out to be a remarkably versatile and convenient piece of technology, packing loads of features into a tiny package
