Keys to efficiency
The layout of the keys is one of many new and
improved elements in the J200, helping the user to
find functions and features in the phone quickly
and easily. Conveniently and ergonomically
grouped together, the Yes and No keys, a joystick,
an option key and the “C” key enable the user to
navigate, select and perform actions.
Joystick
The J200 has an easy-to-use joystick which allows
you to easily navigate the new J200 menu system.
When you arrive at the required function in a menu,
instead of pressing the Yes key, gently press the
centre of the joystick and the selected feature is
activated.
Option key
The option key provides the user with a list of
options while in a function.
•
In standby, press to turn on or off silent mode,
activate IR, see the status menu.
•
In standby, press and hold for instant WAP-
access.
•
During an ongoing call, press to control calling
functions, for example,
Turn off tones
,
Hold call
,
and
Join calls
.
•
When writing a text message, press for a list of
options, for example to insert an item in the
message or to select text format or input lan-
guage. Another way to access the input lan-
guage menu when writing a text message, is by
pressing and holding the “#” key.
“C” key
The “C” key is used to delete items and to turn
sounds on and off.
Themes
The already popular themes in Sony Ericsson
mobile phones have been further developed and
improved in the J200, enabling the user to person-
alize the phone with pictures, colours, wallpapers,
and the like. The J200 comes with four embedded
themes and all their features are displayed in the
large 4096 colour screen, which gives a unique
user experience. As a customization, themes can
be replaced by the operator.
Wallpapers
The user can have a wallpaper in the display, to
bring extra life to the phone when in standby mode.
The wallpaper can be one of up to 10 pre-defined,
replaceable pictures or an operator defined picture.
It is also possible for users to download wallpapers
from WAP sites. Up to 14 wallpapers 15 kb can be
downloaded. When the phone’s memory is full the
user must delete content in order to free up space
for new content.
Games
The latest development of mobile phones with
large colour displays and polyphonic sounds has
taken mobile gaming to new heights. What was
once mainly greyscale, dull games with poor
sound, is now exciting action games in thousands
of colours and with impressive sound effects.
The J200 features popular games for different
moods and skills. Examples of such games are:
•
Black deal
•
Casino wheel
•
Deep abyss
In addition to impressive graphics and sounds, the
J200 is also equipped with force-feedback func-
tionality, a popular feature of many games that are
developed for mobile phones today.
Start-up show
One way to make the J200 more personal is to
have a user-defined start-up show. Each time the
phone is turned on, an animation or picture, with or
without sound, appears in the display. There is one
Sony Ericsson-defined show stored in the phone,
and it is also possible to have one operator/cus-
tomer defined show. As with the wallpaper, the
user-defined show can use any of the pictures
stored in the phone.
