Sony Ericsson announced a new addition to its T-series phones - the Sony Ericsson T715 Galaxy Silver. It\\\'s a compact, stylish slider that offers 3G connectivity and a 3 MP snapper.

Just like a FashionTV model, the Sony Ericsson T715 Galaxy Silver relies heavily on looks to impress - the back cover is brushed aluminum and the phone will be available in two colors - Galaxy Silver with piano finish and Rogue Pink with mirror finish. Its size also helps make a statement - 91.5 x 48.0 x 14.9mm and 96g make it quite compact for a slider.

The T715 Galaxy Silver sports a 3.15 megapixel camera with Cell-ID geotagging and a LED flash. Unfortunately, there\\\'s no autofocus. Don\\\'t get your hopes high for the video recording capabilities as well.

The SE T715 Galaxy Silver screen is 2.2-inch big with QVGA resolution and, Sony Ericsson claim, good legibility under sunlight. It also offers tried music functionality with TrackID, PlayNow and Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP, as well as FM radio with RDS.

Many of you will be pleased to hear that the T715 Galaxy Silver will happily accept microSD cards.

The speedy HSPA of the T715 Galaxy Silver will be utilized by a NetFront browser and a YouTube application as seen in previous handsets by the company. There\\\'s also video calling, though that uses the main (and only) camera.
