From Sony Ericcson facebook page:
"Sony Ericsson
With the big news anticipated from Mobile World Congress this Sunday, check out the latest news from our man on the ground, Rikard, who'll be blogging live from the event. What do you think the big news will be?"
i swear to god now if there is no new surprise i will be pissed! they have been shoving this down our faces for too long now.
arc and play are all over the facebook page, so its obviously not those two being the big surprise. so what the hell is it? i dont know, but it better be something new

Wht is AKANE AND AZUSA Now???
Posted by tranced
The K stands for keyboard. M for multi? S for single or swivel?
Posted by miwi
Just guessing here, but:
L = Large (arc = LT15i)
M = Medium (neo = MK16i/MT15i)
S = Small (smultron/mango = SK/ST)
and for example:
MT15i = Touch, MK15i = Keyboard
R = ?, and the japanese numbers I dont even have a guess

Posted by tranced
R could stand for recreation.
Your guesses are very convincing.
Posted by mustafabay
Remember S was swivel then slider.
Posted by tranced
That's what I think as well. But remember we don't know yet until tomorrow.

im hoping for android-cybershot! 16mpx, flash, 4inch, dual core!
Posted by Reactor.
now WHAT IS "Akane" and "Azusa"?
is one of them a 16mpXENON/1.5ghz,ded.GPU/HDOLEDScreen/1GBRAM Supersmartphone?
Posted by rikken
Would like a successor to the w995 with a better camera and a larger screen
Touch A200 would be great
Posted by Dups!
@aurelius
A camphone like that would not take the shine off the Arc, it would be like Satio and Vivaz.
Let's assume it has a dual core processor and 16mp camera with a xenon flash then it is in a different league to the Arc. It is likely to be more expensive also and will unlikely be released at the same time, maybe at the end of Q2. I don't see any competition there whatsoever.
I just want the Arc NOW!
Posted by koss
There won't be any surprises, or any big surprize. Akane and Azuka are specialized termial only and exclusively for Japan market only. Sonyericsson won't release 16Mp dual core in this spring or in this summer, maybe in Q2 but not now. We won't see anything new.. at MWC Barcelona.
Posted by back2you
Only one day to go now, who's getting excited? Remember to tune in tomorrow at 6PM GMT
Posted by rphilippe
What is the Xperia Duo?
Posted by smclion102
@aurelius
Totally agree with you..
Arc is not yet out in the market if they announce something better then they will kill ARC before it even launches.. Most of us who are planning to buy Arc wont buy this and go for better..
General public dont no dual core nor major tech stuff..
Arc is sexy and big and little cheaper so ppl will buy this than expensive dual core phone..
Big surprise is XPERIA PLAY nothing else..

It doesn't make sense.
Because
Arc isn't a phone that holds 2011/this year's standards, isn't specifically a high-end phone and only a follow up/update of X10?
Well, it is not like I disagree with you. As much as I want a 16 megapixel & 1080P and proper specs, I think it is unlikely to happen tomorrow.
I mean, the Arc's preorder price was 460 GBP, which is ridiculously high if you ask me. So, if they made a 16 megapixel phone, how much would they charge for it? If it is not much higher than the Arc, then getting the Arc would be a bad choice.
I think the Arc has to be significantly cheaper if Sony Ericsson is going to make the super phone that everybody is dreaming about. And even if it won't exist, the Arc has to be cheaper anyway. But that's another issue.
Man, this super phone will always be a dream or only exists in Japan, hardware wise (S006).

i have been saying this since day one; i dont know why people here think
will price the Arc cheap?!
trust me Arc will be priced very similar to other dual-core and high-end phones from other manufacturers, this is the reason why i know the Arc wont save
this year.

I didn't think it was going to be cheap, but don't you think 460 GBP (about 737 USD) is just... waaaaay too expensive? Sure, sometimes, proucts are more expensive in the UK and this is a preorder price. However, I don't think the initial price should exceed 550 USD.

tell me how much was the nexus s priced when it was released? bare in mind this WAS a high-end device at its release. you think a mid-end phone like the Arc justifies £460??? that is a HIGH-END price tag. the LG Optimus 2X will be priced at around that figure.
EDIT:
from play.com: Arc = £450
Optimus 2X = £470
yh real cheap price there

im guessing US will see it at around $500 - $600 anyway. does'nt really matter the price in the UK, it has no correlation with US prices unfortunately. UK get shafted hard on tech prices.

I thought everybody agreed that Nexus S is ridiculously overpriced for a Galaxy S with LED flash minus 720P video, in addition to a software update that isn't supposed to cause any price increase
. Wait, it doesn't even have a MicroSD card slot.
GSMArena just wrote a review about it too.

ok fair point lol but still the Arc will be priced as a high-end device, no question in my mind.

So I'm thinking this IS11S is an imaging device i.e. fantastic cam. The xml suggests 854x480 same as arc/x10/play/neo so I'm going to guess it's somewhere around 4" in the screen. Multi-core isn't out of the question neither is 16MP. Anyone else excited?

Just a hint to any one that wants to pretend to have connections inside SE:
CHECK OUT THE JAPANESE BLOGS
For example:
"IS11S is compatible with CDMA2000 R800x communication system, otherwise supports W-CDMA communication system. "

im thinking people shouldnt be setting their hopes too high... we know what happens after dont we
for us, of course it wont be much of a suprise, but these events arent just to show phones to us regular forum visitors, they are for the general public also...
*just a pre warning before all the complaining starts* (perhaps start a whinge thread in the garbage section)

SE Has not had the best hardware on the market for years. Why everybody is still expecting it?
What they always have is the best looking phone. In my eyes that combined with a solid hardware is just as if not more desirable. Never even think twice about paying the premium price for that.
Anyway here in Singapore sunday has arrived
Bring the goodies

For ArC, I'm preferred to wait and decide later this year. Not anymore buy in only two weeks release,
taught me a bitter life experienced with Satio.
Till price tag become more reasonable!
PS. from play.com: Arc = £450 /// Optimus 2X = £470 /// Ridiculous price tag ever see!
