Logo: On a black background, a red aurora emerges from the bottom as a streak passes by. The streak then returns as a water current, while the aurora turns into and. The water current forms a circle near the center which forms an orb, turning into the Sony Ericsson logo, a white/ orb with the green area being divided into two parts. The light vanishes, the logo turns plain and the text "Sony Ericsson" fades in below the logo.

Technique: CGI animation.

Music/Sounds: A piano note leading to a held synth pad, and a 4-note plucked theme.

Availability: Seen on most Sony Ericsson phones from the late 2000s up to 2011.
