Sony Ericsson might be flagging in terms of sales worldwide, but that hasn't stopped it rebooting its OS and strategy, and bringing out a slew of new handsets to fit in, and the Satio is the pick of the bunch.

Some of you might remember the Satio from Mobile World Congress in Barcelona earlier this year, where it went by the name Idou. Well, although we don't know why it had a name change, it still is exactly the same handset we were wowed by back then.

The first thing you notice about this phone is that it wants you to play with it, and to that end Sony Ericsson has added in some nifty features to get you started. The second you want to go on the internet, it asks you to download your 3G settings and connect to Wi-Fi. Open your contacts, and you'll be asked to shower the phone with your SIM numbers.

It's the little things like this that make you feel quickly at home with the phone, and add to that a simple yet effective layout, and you can't help but warm to the quirkily-named Satio.

The home screen has been given a complete makeover, with icons at the bottom and the top of the screen designed to give you easy access to all the major functions of the phone.

For instance, the top of the screen houses things like a clock, your photo gallery, contacts, favourites, all of which are scrollable by either tapping them or scrolling the screen left and right.

And at the bottom, the media functions are held, with search also added in for good measure, allowing you to search both the internet and the phone itself for content, in a similar vein to the iPhone's forthcoming 3.0 Spotlight.
