Tokyo, Aug 13, 2012 - ( JCN Newswire ) - Fujitsu today announced that its new smartphone, docomo with series ARROWS Me F-11D, will be available from NTT DOCOMO, Inc. in Japan beginning August 15, 2012.

ARROWS Me F-11D has been designed with an emphasis on simplicity and ease of use to attract customers who are considering the purchase of a smartphone in the near future. In addition, the handset comes equipped with a diverse range of features that ensure hassle-free, long-term use. These include familiar and convenient features found on existing i-mode(R) mobile phones, such as 1seg broadcast reception and Osaifu Keitai(R), as well as other rich features, including IPX5/8(1) water-resistant technology and a simple data transfer function, which enables users to seamlessly transfer data from an i-mode mobile phone, a process that until now has required considerable time and effort.

Thanks to a stylishly accented frame and refined rear casing, it features an elegantly simple design that users will long enjoy. F-11D offers both high quality and functional beauty in a compact size, making it perfect for customers who are thinking about upgrading to a smartphone from a feature phone.

Given the wide range of models that have entered the market along with the rapid spread of smartphones, many customers have expressed hesitation in switching from their feature phones, even though they may be interested in upgrading to a smartphone.

In response to these customer concerns, Fujitsu has developed ARROWS Me F-11D. In contrast to expensive high-spec models, the new smartphone has been designed with an emphasis on simplicity and ease of use, offering features such as the latest version of Fujitsu's proprietary Human Centric Engine for delivering the ultimate user-friendly experience, as well as NX! Comfort UI, a highly intuitive user interface.Beginning with standard features such as an advanced 5.0 megapixel camera capable of recording Hi-Vision movies and Fujitsu Mobile Integrated Dictionary +(2), a full-featured electronic dictionary that provides access to a total of 29 different dictionaries, this model offers a wide range of capabilities to satisfy customers looking to enjoy long-term, hassle-free use.

Measuring 119 mm in length and 60 mm in width, the compact body of the phone fits comfortably in the user's hand and employs a smooth curved form factor. ARROWS Me F-11D is available in two colors: Precious White and Precious Black.
