Most likely because it has a Xenon.
But why the front camera is gone now?
C902 + Xenon - front camera = C890?

Does anyone else not like it? I think it looks a) Nokia-ish - It doesn't follow SE's style. b) The back looks very poorly put together and designed, like a bad photoshop. And c) It doesn't look new at all. It looks older than the K850i!



Well, I fully agree with you, but remember these are just more shoddily taken spypics in bad lighting and with very limited detail- The pics themselves were probably taken with another mobile phone anyway. The back is very ugly, but I've got to admit I dont dislike the front. Typically I never like a phone when I see it in spyshots or w/e, but then when its officially announced it suddenly looks way better. In fact, the only phone I have ever seen to break this trend is the W902. I disliked the design then, and I dislike it now. It's one of those that looks like it had so much potential. But I mean WTF did they do? It isn't even the same thickness throughout (so how is that classy as a 'high ender'?) and the left side has a different finish to the right side. Its a real shame because IMO the feature set is excellent, and those playback buttons its got are the right way to go for music.

Yeah that's true, for example the T700 is one that I like a lot better now than I did in spy shots. I can agree with you on the W902 too, though I probably like it a bit more than you do. I think it looks better in its coloured variants. Another phone that I didn't like in spy shots and still don't like after its announcement is the G705. The worst bit is that these (W902 and G705) are two of the latest phones from SE, so what does that say for their future designs?

Well thats a matter of taste.

I went into a store and handled the W902 and it just looked great, the orange highlights and the Walkman theme really go together well and it looks very erm masculine? The textured sides do look good.

BTW, I can't seem to see any camera shortcuts on this new cyber-shot.

It reminds me of the N82 on the front. My guess would be the C712 or C810 depending on whether it'll have aGPS and/or touchscreen. The only camera shortcuts I can see on that photo is the brightness +/- on the d-pad.

I think C700 or C701.

@Goldenface: Yeah it certainly looks masculine. More of a rugged look to it. But I prefered when SE was designing cleaner looking phones... The C905 has such a beautiful, clean design in comparison to the W902.

I thought that was BeiBei when I first looked at it. Then you see the D pad and know it's not. It looks very big for a non smart phone too, but then again it is only against a white background so it's impossible to tell.

8XX or 9XX is Highend.
IMO Kate isn't Highend in any ways.

It is semi high end. Let's say mid-high end which is why I guessed C700 or C701. It makes sense too if you think it's the K770i's successor (which, going by dates should be about right if this is released soon).

C712 sounds realistic imo.

I wonder how long it takes to ship a f*cking phone.
Amazon.de still have no w902.....
