Sony Ericsson K660i CHEN: Lime White Prototype AP2

📰 Why this phone matters: This unit is a fully working Sony Ericsson K660i prototype built on the CHEN platform and finished in a striking lime and white color scheme that gives the phone a crisp, almost experimental aesthetic. The internal label confirms its origins: a prototype build AP2 from week 51 of 2007, carrying a prototype IMEI and the mandatory Prototype not for sale and Not Type Approved markings. The chassis and keypad display a pre-final finish, with the lime navigation bar and white keypad standing out as a rare color combination that may never have been intended for retail release.The device has the full layout of the final K660i, including the 5-way joystick, QVGA display, media keys and the iconic Sony Ericsson design language of the late 2000s. Yet, as a prototype, it represents a development milestone rather than a commercial product. The preproduction color tones, engineering batch identifiers and prototype hardware references capture the exact moment when Sony Ericsson was refining the K660i before mass production. A fully functional unit in this condition is especially rare, making it a prized collectible and an authentic piece of the brand’s engineering history.
