O2 Cocoon – the Music Phone Introduced

European call carrier 02 has announced its new music oriented phone, the Cocoon.

The name itself suggests the shape and design of the handset, the white cell phone is sleek and curvy. The opaque clamshell phone lights the outer shell up from underneath with LED lights that show time, caller ID and music function.

The features of the 02 Cocoon music phone include Bluetooth A2DP, AF plus the ability to handle DRM-free AAC iTunes Plus downloads. The Cocoon is crammed with two stereo speakers, the O2 Cocoon Nest docking station and stereo Bluetooth output.

According to Sally Cowdry, O2’s marketing director, “O2 has a strong heritage in music through activity such as O2 Undiscovered, the O2 Wireless Festival and the forthcoming opening of The O2, so it made perfect sense for us to extend this music philosophy into the development of our own mobile music device.”

The fresh and different, yet simple to use and packed with features, O2 Cocoon phone will be released in the UK for $590 (approx. Rs. 23,948) in August.
