The Anzu has also been unofficially unveiled and is now officially named the Xperia Arc obviously due to its arched back. The device is said to have an astonishing 4.2 inch Bravia mobile display which is run by Sony's Mobile Bravia engine. The Sony Mobile Bravia engine will ensure a smoother picture and incorporates noise reduction, sharpness control, color management and contrast enhancement functionality on the move! Given these nifty enhancements I think it would be correct to deduce that is a primarily multimedia focused phone which is also suggested by the text on the banner.
It features a back-illuminated proprietary Sony EXMOR R CMOS sensor for astonishing noise reduction and picture quality in low light situations. It has an 8.1 megapixel camer and is able to record 720p HD video. There is also a mini-HDMI port for direct one cable connectivity to HDTV's.
Given that it is a multimedia oriented phone, I'm sure it will have support for the Qriocity range of services which offer streaming of music and movies and TV shows.
Obviously, since it hasn't been announced yet, this is all the information that has been obtained but we look forward to the official unveiling where we will obviously be informed of more of the devices specifications.

This phone looks marvellous indeed!
if the price is right and no other good phones debut at MWC this year, then this beast might be my new phone
ReplyDeleteyes indeed, this phone looks amazing and Sony Ericsson's best offering in years. Though this is probably light years out of my price range.
