The Indonesian equivalent of the US FCC has shed some light on what the Sony Ericsson ST25i Kumquat will be marketed as. According to a recent filing by Sony Ericsson, the ST25i will be called the Sony Ericsson Xperia U. However, since Sony Ericsson is moving away from Ericsson, our guess is that this will be simply called Sony Xperia U. MWC is most probably where we’ll see this officially announced.
Not that long ago, an alleged Sony roadmap for 2012 leaked. The roadmap contained a wide selection of code names that we hadn’t heard before. One of those devices, the Sony LT25i Kumquat, has now leaked. The image you see above is told to be that exact device.
On the spec side of things, we’re expecting to see a dual-core 1GHz processor, 3.5-inch screen (480×854 pixels), 5-megapixel camera and Android 2.3. The device is basically a mini-Xperia S. We don’t really have other information of the Kumquat now, but we’re expecting to see it announced February at Mobile World Congress 2012.
It’s just a few hours after the official Resident Evil: Retribution teaser trailer was launched. The trailer is packed with Sony products, but one device comes of particular interest to me.
The phone in the image above looks a lot like the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc or Arc S, but the branding is not quite correct. There isn’t a device with just Sony branding and that look. This leads us to believe that it could be the rumored Sony Xperia Arc HD, and not the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc/Arc S that is already available.
