The camera side of things offers auto focus, photo flash and face detection as well as the ability to geo-tag pics via the phone's A-GPS.

To be bundled with either HPM-77 or HPM-88 headphones as well as an 8GB Memory Stick Micro, the W995 will be available in selected markets from Q2 in black, silver and red.
