Tokyo, February 16, 2011

Fujitsu today announced that the new T006 mobile phone from Fujitsu Toshiba Mobile Communications will be available beginning February 18, 2011, from KDDI Corporation and Okinawa Cellular Telephone Company in Japan.

The T006 features vivid illuminations that sparkle in 36 different ways when receiving incoming phone calls or e-mails, while also allowing users to enjoy composing e-mail messages using 4,010 types of preset emoticons(1)—the most of any mobile phone from au. Moreover, the new waterproof slide phone is equipped with a high-speed 1GHz Snapdragon™ CPU and supports au's Wi-Fi WIN and WIN HIGH SPEED services(2), making it quick and effortless for users to read e-mails or browse the Internet.

Amid an increasingly diverse landscape of mobile phone user needs, the younger generation of female users place emphasis on the mobile phone's design elements, such as sparkling illuminations, as well as its fun e-mail communication and camera features, when selecting a mobile phone.

With the T006's decorative e-mail illumination feature, the mobile phone automatically scans the text of an incoming e-mail message and sparkles in one of the 36 different light variations that best expresses the mood of the message's sender. In addition, the new mobile phone comes with 4,010 different kinds of preset emoticons, the most from au. When selecting decoration emoticons, users can enter them using predictive text input or by inputting the text that represents the emoticon's meaning. A registration feature also allows emoticons to be recorded under customized names, making it easy for users to quickly locate the right emoticon from among thousands and fully enjoy writing image-filled messages.

The mobile phone is equipped with a 12.2 megapixel high-resolution exterior camera and, with its blog upload feature, can instantly post captured photos to a blog. Furthermore, its high-speed Snapdragon™ CPU enables smooth operations. As the T006 is compatible with au's Wi-Fi WIN and WIN HIGH SPEED services, sending and receiving e-mail messages is also quick and effortless. The mobile phone supports the LISMO! streaming music service, LISMO WAVE, and by utilizing the phone's FM transmitter, users can enjoy music in a variety of settings.

With its vividly-sparkling illuminations, the T006 is a waterproof slide phone that makes e-mail communications, camera photography, and listening to music an even more enjoyable experience. The mobile phone is available in three color variations: LUXE WHITE, BEIGE PINK, and INDIGO BLUE.

Product Features of the T006

1. Sparkling illuminations

  • Six different color theme settings
    Users can choose between six different color themes for configuring the phone's illuminations: sweets, chic, party, luxury, earth, and simple.
  • Seven keypad light patterns
    When operating the mobile phone in a dark or dimly lit place, the phone sparkles in the user's hand in one of seven different light patterns. With the LUXE WHITE and BEIGE PINK models, the entire keypad illuminates. With the INDIGO BLUE model, the lines surrounding the key light up.

2. Fun e-mail features

  • E-mail notification lamp and e-mail jump
    Users are notified by a flashing e-mail key when they've received an incoming message. In addition, if the user presses the e-mail key while the incoming message tone is ringing, the phone will jump directly to the body of the message.

3. Taking photos, watching images and listening to music: a full-range of entertainment features

  • 12.2 megapixel camera
    With a diversity of photography features, such as smile finder and face-angle detector, users can still take beautiful pictures by letting the camera do all the work.
  • Interior camera for self-portraits which also acts as a hand mirror
    Users can keep a close eye on the composition of self-portraits, making it easy to take photos for use in a blog. With the hand-mirror feature, icons are not displayed on the screen for clearer visibility. The brightness can also be adjusted. The mobile phone also supports videophone mode in which users can talk face-to-face.
  • Mobile REGZA Engine 2.0
    Mobile REGZA Engine 2.0 includes a variety of features, such as auto-image adjustment, which adjusts the light of the mobile phone's backlight in response to the brightness of the surrounding environment and performs optimal image processing in real-time. In addition, it is equipped with noise reduction, which reduces discordant sound, an issue common to one-segment video, thereby enabling users to enjoy beautiful video broadcasts.
  • Photo viewer
    Users can enjoy viewing images inside of a data folder as a slideshow. With photos that are stored as compressed files, only the images the user wishes to display are decompressed, making it possible to quickly search and browse photos. In addition, the mobile phone comes with special effect features that allow images to be enjoyed using 16 different viewing patterns.
  • Plays YouTube™ videos on a PC website viewer
    With the Wi-Fi WIN service, even when out of range of a Wi-Fi® area, users can use the mobile phone's PC website viewer to watch YouTube™ and other videos in large-screen format with the phone positioned sideways.
