They have added a motion sensor, and a youtube app too.

I dont get it!!
why would any x1 owner want to replace it with this? it has the exact spec
and its uglier!!
not to mention that x2 probably wont have xda support

I agree. The case will probably crack .
iPhone 3gs or samsung omnia pro it is then...

they better not ask 750 bucks for it out the door.. not with the same outdated procesor... ****in milkin it for all she's worth.... i smell a boycott... <disgrunted se customer

omg... i don't want it... the screen 3.2" is still too small (for me)... and why don't i buy the prettier X1 but the uglier & (likely to be) more expensive X2 ???

i thought it looked quite nice.lol. can never tell from just pictures anyway. ill reserve judgement for when i see one in the flesh. id imagine its like when they went from the p900 to p910. where they didnt really change the specs much but improved on a lot of the bugs and usuability. im hoping they sorted the keyboard issue and the terrible reception...

I thought it looked nice. The camera is better, and what does it for me is the fact that it gains tv-out.
Where does it say it is using the same processor?

looks like much more solid than the x1, also its got a flush screen and the led has moved to the top rather than 2 on each side which is dissapointing. was hoping they had kept the illuminations and mayb added a user editor this time around.
very nice user interface but i wouldnt be surprised if someone manages to figure out a way to flash it to the X1
dont like the sound of this though..
"It comes with a 4GB microSD card (Sony Ericsson has clearly given up on M2) and will ship in October, likely when the first Windows Mobile 6.5 devices appear, exclusively with Vodafone in the UK. "

I wish our great cookers gonna steal some stuff from x2 like PanelManager and some new panels. On second video we can see that performance is quite bad, normal honeycomb menu is very choppy. I think it's waste of money when the same stuff we can have on our x1

Hope we can still get it in October..... >.<

im not gona hold my breath for an october release but i hope its out before christmas. one advantage to it using quite a bit of the same tech as the X1 is that sony should be able to release it much quicker than the X1.
anyone know if its still got the optical touchpad?

Up to me, the design is better than the X1!!!

it clearly states "processor remains unknown" so where you guys are getting infos about processor speed?

pff ... im so NOT going to buy it. my next phone will be an android for sure.
BUT ... i realy like to get my hands on the ROM. the new panelmanager seems nice and this new panel also some ... style

SE-First.com reports that it has the same processor.

well they can go to hell if it's the same CPU, f*ck them.

how Gille1, very interesting comment ...

hope it got an better cpu. heared it got 512 mb ram?
but it has a lot of advantages: 8.1mp camera, motion sensor, tv-out, bigger screen, stereo-speakers. not exactly the x1, right?

Nexus 2

Okay, so I've had my Nexus one for a while now, and I was wondering what they could possibly do to the nexus 2 that would make it even better. I'm thinking probably a faster processor, and more ram, but what else comes to mind?

would love to see a FM Trans to like "broadcast" to the radio....Like those transmitters for mp3 players....Would be siiiick to have pandora or something playing over car radio via my phone

Don't they have something that does that already?

better use of the snapdragon processor, but that's software related... I would like it to be more durable such as made from a single block of aluminium. Also a powerful graphics chip.

The HTC Legend is a sexy beast lol. I'd like to get my hands on one if it goes GSM.
Yeah, a more powerful graphics chip would be awesome, I just can't wait til the big developers start moving towards android so we can have some of the awesome games and apps the iPhone has.

I second this. God that thing is amazing. But it won't look right until the Supersonic comes out. THEN a decent Rom will be possible in my eyes.
But with Windows Phone 7 I can imagine the devs are busy porting that to it right now.

Google HTC Scorpion......should be gsm of exactly what your dreaming of

Not that I could care less... but I would really love for the N2 to have a true multi-touch screen to shut that debate down... 1GB of RAM, 4GB internal ROM, 4" screen, XVGA LCD or SuperAMOLED... I don't like AMOLED for outdoor use. 10MP camera, with xenon flash... and of course Android 3.1!

For less than $500 right?

I will be keeping my Nexus for 2 or more years, whatever comes around the corner - i'll just port it over to the Nexus.. since the N1 is like the G1 in terms of development and popularity, I should be ok for a while..
(this is really what I'm just telling myself.. I dont want my precious Nexus to become.. not worth the time of day anymore...)
Why does technology have to advance so fast!! =(

front facing camera for video chat, a high quality speaker-phone, a kickstand with a projected laser keyboard? an hd projector component

hardware keyboard

x
I myself am sick of the having to chase technology.... I'm done for a bit, my n1 will sufficient for a year, I think thats a good time to get a new phone, once every year...
N1 just needs adobe flash and apps to sd and ill be happy as a cucumber....

Video recording capability @ 24 frames per second (constant!) with DECENT audio quality ... like the Milestone. Why have a 480x720 video resolution when the video is laggy and audio is utter crap? Also a flash option on the video recording would also be good - again, just like the Milestone.
Finally, make FM radio work and you have the perfect device.

the 1ghz processor is enough for me. the current amount of ram is enough- maybe a tad bump is cool.
get rid of the amoled display, 4-4.3 inch display. no trackball. sleep/wake from a hardware button like g1/mytouch. being able to shoot hd video.
other than that... having the nexus one has finally made me not eager to look/have the next best cellular device. this n1 almost kicks my netbooks ass

Nothing is confirmed at the moment, but based on the picture the device looks very sexy. Still have to see the thickness and views from other angles.
If it comes out, will you ditch the Arc and make the upgrade?

i am waiting for its launch or announce date
by the way it can be fake or rumor too.........

the Duo has been an ongoing rumor on some asian forums since january and that it would be a flagship phone for the second half of 2011.

If I would've wanted a dual core phone in the first place, I wouldn't have bothered buying a SE Xperia Arc. I would've bought a Galaxy SII, Sensation oder Optimus Speed instead. I don't think dual core phones are necessary right now. There are no real big advantages. Single core phones work very well, especially the arc.

i put no way since i got my arc yesterday

That photo's fake as F***... the dock bar's not even at the bottom.... They won't be bringing out a Dual core this year.. it will be the 2012 model..

No
I definitely wouldn't. The Arc works like a charm for me.

No, my arc still more sexy than that thing

I'm pretty confident they'll have one out before the end of the year - maybe announced around September time.
Without knowing more about the specs, I can't comment whether I would purchase one out of my own money or not.
But I reckon I'd end up with a Duo when it was released anyway.

I remember SE saying there will be a flagship phone for the second half of 2011.. can't find the quote atm
Also, I don't think they expect Arc users to ditch their phones after using them for a couple of months... I think its more for the X10 users (and SE fanboys)

I definitely wouldn't.Arc has the best smartphone design..

That picture doesn't look like a Sony Ericsson phone! come on guys, look at X10, Arc and all the others; they look cool and sexy. The picture looks more like a Samsung phone. I'll check with SE tomorrow and come back.

I would consider
dual core will be the way for future phone. I will consider to change if the spect is significally better than my current Arc.

I'll be considering a dual-core Android phone come 2012, and not this year. Just hoping it will be coming from SE with it's 16mp cam with all it's full 1080HD video recording.

I'm agree with dual-core things, it'll be smartphone future. But, 16mp camera sounds nonsense to me, with that small sensor and lenses noise will be anywhere friend.

HTC Zeta, 2.5GHz Quad-Core CPU & ICS

HTC Zeta rendered, rumored to pack 2.5GHz quad-core CPU and Ice Cream Sandwich

We just got handed imagery and specs of a possible HTC device in the works codenamed the Zeta. It's a quad-core handset, much like the Edge that was leaked last week, but it has a much faster 2.5GHz APQ8064 CPU along with 1GB of RAM running the show, on a 4.5-inch 720p HD display. According to our source, the uniquely shaped smartphone will come with Ice Cream Sandwich pre-installed with Sense UI (version 4.0 wasn't specified, but we'd be surprised to see it any lower on an ICS device) and have 32GB of internal storage space, an 1,830mAh battery, Beats Audio, Bluetooth 4.0, an 8MP rear camera with dual LED flash, 1080p video capture and a 1.3MP front-facing cam. Dimensions? We have those, too: the Zeta is said to measure at 109.8 x 60.9 x 9.8mm (4.32 x 2.4 x 0.39 inches) and weigh 5.15 ounces (146g). Pricing and availability aren't known, and we're still digging for more info. It certainly has an intriguing look; the sharp corners would be a huge departure from HTC's recent design choices, though it appears to have HTC's signature unibody build in the back. So are we just looking at a cool concept or is this the next flagship phone? We're hoping it's the latter.

Haha, it's all good man, I like the picture in there better too.
Anyways, this thing looks sharp! I wonder how it'd feel to actually hold it though. And 2.5GHz, quad-core is a ridiculous amount of processor power for a phone, it's crazy.

Yeah and the 2.5ghz??? My laptop sits at 2.1ghz...I could probably use Solidworks or Adobe Illustrator off of this phone sitting in class haha.
I wish they would up the camera sensors on it and bump up to Asia's megapixel and lens technology...13 megapixels and LUMIX lens~

They should just make it a damn tablet with these specs, lol. Give it about a 2-inch bigger screen, it'll pass as a nice small, powerful, tablet

This would be more powerful then my laptop. I think its time to get a new one.

Amazing, powerful, will wait to see more to comes up to 2012.

wait this is for a PHONE? Holy crap ..... this would be better off in a tablet I think ... bt hey, some people crave power, so why not sell it to them?

This will probably be my next phone

Another Xperia Play "Alternative"

Please remember, I do not mean this as advertisement, I'm only posting this as it is another Android Gaming Device, which are not very common.

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.

This is basically a smaller version of my S7300. Hardware wise its not bad, but every single one will have its issues.... Sliders breaking... Not powering on etc. My USB slot on my S7300 has died.
The standard JXD firmware is terrible too, although the god of JXD roms 'Skelton' has already made a cfw for it.
