Mobile carrier NTT DoCoMo on Wednesday unveiled 22 new mobile handsets in four series, as well as new online services, in order to meet diversified demands of its users.

The new series are “Style,” “Prime,” “Smart” and “Pro” — each of which targets a different user base such as those who prefer fashionable, entertainment, business or cutting-edge technology handsets. The new handsets will be released gradually from Nov 19 through March in 2009.

“The total sales of mobile handsets has been declining. But we would like to satisfy our customers by providing a rich line-up of products,” said DoCoMo President Ryuji Yamada. He denied that launching 22 new handsets was too many for a shrinking market.

The company will also launch a new service called “iConcier” that provides information personalized for individual users, such as traffic information, as well as “iWidget” applications which users can add on their own.
