Product overview
Sony Ericsson Spiro™ – Spread good vibes
Crank it up. Bounce around. Spread good vibes
Go wild. Bounce around. Or just chill. With the Walkman™ player on Sony Ericsson Spiro™ phone. Plug in
the earbuds, load up the tracklist and dance away the day – and the night if you want to. How do you like
to listen? Wirefree and wearable? Or headphones with sound as sweet as honey? Your choice with the 3.5
mm headphone jack.
Chart your tunes
Music’s the food of love, right? Get all you can eat. From the PlayNow™ service*. Your window to the
music world in the store that’s open 24/7. Or from the radio. Great tune. But what’s it called? Press the
TrackID™ application and find out. Artist, title, album. Want it? Get it from the PlayNow™ service*.
Get the gossip
What’s what? Who’s hot? And who’s not? Find out on Facebook™ and Twitter™. All up top on Sony
Ericsson Spiro™ phone. Get news about the latest underground hip hop. Spread the word on Friday’s
party. Flirt with the new kid on the block. Chat to anyone in style with conversational texts. From a
keyboard that’s just made to message. Connecting just got really convenient.
* The PlayNow™ service may not be available in all markets.
