New Sony Ericsson Phone

4,3" screen @ 720p
1,4 GHz cpu
It seems to have a built in screenshot function, looks interesting or is it on the new Android version standard (it should be):

It should be the Xperia Duo.

I personally doubt it given that almost every aspect of those specs differs from what has previously been rumoured about the Duo - the CPU, the screen size and the screen res are all different.
Also, I can't see the appeal of a handset with a 720p display and such a relatively poor CPU/GPU.
To power a handset with a screen like that, you'd want something better under the hood.

The specs actually quite match the Duo's. 1.4Ghz might just as well be a 1.4Ghz Dualcore. 720p display will never happen for now just because it's useless and SE would have to redo their whole UI for it (everything has to be rescaled). And the screenshots are definately not from a 720p device.

Even assuming they've somehow confused single-core and dual-core, none of the rest of the specs match up.
Not that there's much in the way of specs mentioned in that article...
It could be the Duo but probably only if that article's completely wrong.

yes, the single-core wont match the HD screen. So the pierce of info is just fake. Or at least, it contains much wrong info.

But the screen shot is not 720p, maybe they just tested the ROM on an Arc or whatever. And the article indeed says single core

Oops, forgot to post the links, thanks.

I have already seen the phone. My friend works for SE and has got his hands on it. According to him, the processor is the exact same as we have in the Arc. It has just been upped to 1.4ghz. Thats all I can tell you...

Samsung Galaxy S2 vs Iphone 4S

I'm not English but even me know that the SGS2 is under 400£ in UK.
Look at Play.com or Expansys for example.

quick camera access, advanced photo editing tools, wireless sync and advanced voice commands are all beyond the capabilities of Gingerbread,
????????????????????
Both the iPhone 4S and Samsung Galaxy S2 cost roughly £500 for 16 GB models if we’re talking PAYG.
Idiotic statement .day one of launch £399 O2 PAYG .
GiffGaff sim is sized normally, therefore will have to be cut for the 4S, which is a relatively simple task
Lacks research GiffGaff cut them for you .
Bloody poor review just about wastes everybody's time .

Granted, I did purchase it from Amazon. Though, it can still be used with a pay as you go card, right? Right. Therefore, it is available to students on the public market, for £120 cheaper than the 'iPhone 4S'. This plays a huge part in it's 'value v performance war' against the iphone... which, incidentally, it destroys the iphone in.

Exactly my thoughts. Even the contract side maths is wrong. My contract is £21pm with free minutes and texts (though less than the 3000 quoted) plus the 500mb data bolt on, without a phone the same contract is £10pm so the phone is costing £11pm over 24 months - £220. Even for those who can't seem to comprehend that your monthly fee isn't just the price of the phone that's £420 which is way less than the quoted £600.

With the S2 using a 1.2GHz dual core Qualcomm processor....

Nice review mate, but the processor isn't a Qualcomm: Samsung is using its Exynos soc on the internafional version, and this one packs 2 ARM9 processors

Can't even get the FACTS right.
LMAO

i find iphone 4s : 1370 dollars
but the price og galaxy s2 : 680 dollars

" With the S2 using a 1.2GHz dual core Qualcomm processor..."
FAIL! At first I thought that the American version is meant, but the image on the website shows the international one and the American version has its CPU clocked at 1.5 GHz anyway.

Did I miss the review somewhere.. oh and I paid 420 JD or 593.220 USD or 384.260 GBP..

The sgs2 has a quad core gpu where as the iPhone 4s has a dual, IP4 has half the ram, an old fashion LCD backlit tiny screen and tremendously restricted by Apple..end of.

[pics] SGS3 Specs Revealed from Samsung mole.

Someone on reddit has a friend who works in a 'high level' position at Samsung and snapped a shot of the new SGS III.

Here's the thread:
Here's the spec's his friend has confirmed so far...
* A 4.7 inch screen that nearly takes up the whole phone, but some bezel space was needed for the camera, , speakers, mic, and so cases would fit on it. He said it WILL be HD and have a ceramic "micro arc oxidation" back.
* Quad core exynos (spelling?) 4412.
* The screen is Super Amoled Plus with HD.
* The camera is a 12 megapixel with flash.
* 2 gigs of ram.
*8 millimeters thick, and no bump this time around, just "smooth".
*2250 milla-amp/hour battery, but no wireless charging.
The thread is new so he will be updating it as he gets more info from his friend.
As always, it's best to be skeptical of new information, but, if this info is true all I have to say is HOLY FUARK!

Looks like an s2 with a sticker on the bottom.

#justsayin

My best guess would be specs similar to the HTC ONE X.
1.5ghz quad core (samsung may clock it slightly higher)
1gb ram, i dont see why it would go to 1.5gb or 2gb as this seems like overkill to me & not needed, ive never been close to using 1gb on my SGS2.
4.7-4.8 inch 720p screen
Overclocked Mali gpu, which would be disappointing as alot of us do that anyway.
8mp, 2mp - can't see that changing, i see no reason too
7mm thick.
Even lighter than SGS2
Ceramic back.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk

Isn't the back button on the wrong side too?

aosp if they do it this cant go wrong

"...it will possibly have two optional launchers, ICS with touchwiz overlay and vanilla ICS"
From the reddit thread.

All I care about is more MP in the camera....do this & I'm sold
If I helped you, please press the Thanks button

I hope it has no touchwiz. I hate touchwiz.

Better quality than what ?

I hope it looks like the one on OP with no physical home key. If it has a physical home key, I'm going to buy an HTC. It's 2012, you're making a touchscreen device, enough with physical keys.

u can get hold of sgs3 and take a dead pic ? looks fake to me

You could just buy a normal One X and overclock it.

Yep. Xperias are so bad, tested it @ o2, deleted all widgets from the stock launcher and it was still laggy ;D (Xperia S), and the HW buttonz are so bad. Nthxbye

Nothing new. All it is, is just a slightly upgraded version of the Xperia S.
I love my PLAY by the way ( ha it rhymes )

Might consider Sony's next flag ship (GX, Haysbusa?) since I want a Snapdragon S4

Is there a FTF file for the Xperia SL? I might wanna try flashing it on my Xperia S

Xperia SL
Got my SL couple of days ago. I had Galaxy SII earlier. Although, SII is a beast but this isn't a bad deal at all. Great phone, Superb Excellent display.... It rocks....
Couple of things which I didnt like are :
1. The buttons are not responsive. Sometimes you have to click 2 - 3 times to get it work. But I got a trick that instead of pressing the button, just swipe it downwards and it works like a charm.
2. The usb connector is on left side which is sometimes very awkward. Should have been at botton like GSII.
Rest all is cool....

It is still a sexy A$$ phone! I saw this phone a month ago & I still like/want it.

This device is still using the Qualcomm S3, which is a cpu from carrier locked SII, its hopelessly underpowered regardless of clockspeed. It'll have trouble with newest 3D games and some HD movies. The Galaxy Nexus OMAP and SII Exynos 1.2Ghz are faster. And this thing is still running ICS which is not acceptable being released today.
One thing Sony need to do for people to buy their phone is keep up with the hardware and software technology.

Yea, it seems to be a Sony Mobile trend to release outdated stuff. I guess they rely too much on their "Sony" reputation, and not enough on actual quality. Shame, they could do so much better.

the phone is already old.
you are not forced to buy it, so why is it a shame?
let them do what they want!

wait till the xperia Z/yuga comes out. muuuuchhhh better choice.

Looks decent, with a 1.5 GHz processor, and 1 GB of ram. I like how its quite smaller then the usual Android gaming devices, which tend to be to big to even fit in your pocket. Share your thoughts.

Cool, but, is not real alternative for me yet.

Thanks for keeping us informed on alternatives to the xp.
8gb storage, Micro TF card and no Bluetooth are killers. No specifics on playtime per charge. Also these things always have terrible descriptions. Hire a translator. Ex: Conflicting spec. page. One line says dual speakers another says single.
