King of Cyber-shot callers

Sony Ericsson has unveiled its most striking and serious camera phone yet, in the form of the snaptastic K850 Cyber-shot mobile.

Set to shoot onto UK shelves in the Autumn, this smartly green-flecked Cyber-shot phone is packing a jumbo 5-megapixel digital camera. Like it's lesser-megapixelled sibling, the K810i, it's equipped with zippy auto-focus skills and a Xenon flash. Plus, it's packing all the old favourites functions-wise, including Sony Ericsson's slick BestPic talent, which cleverly starts taking shots before you hit the shutter (while you're auto-focussing, it's not magic), and takes a series of pics after you

hit the button, enabling you to select from a series of nine shots.

It promises to be fast on the draw too - tap the camera button and the lens cover automatically whips open, ready to shoot.

The K850 is HSDPA equipped, meaning faster online access verging on broadband speeds, so you can access your favourite photo sharing site in a blink. Uploading your pics straight to the web is simple too, and doesn't take too long via standard 3G upload speeds.

Stay tuned for the first review, coming soon.
