I've received a tip claiming that Sony Ericsson are working on a new 12 megapixel camera phone codenamed the Kokura. No idea where the source of these rumours came from (I'm checking with the tipster as I write), and no pictures either, but the tip is surprisingly detailed, even down to the being chipset used ( a TI 3240, apparently!)

Also from the same tip was news of the Sony Ericsson Yurika. Anyone heard anything about these phones? The details are up on my site, MobileMentalism.com



Hmm, TI 3240? Didn't know that chipset existed but if it does then its ARM-9 at its core. The KoKura I think is the Idou that was leaked, or teaser announcement today from SonyEricsson. Yurika I'm not sure what that is.

As we spoke on PM no hard feelings. I understand what you mean by the complaining; not too long ago it REALLY got out of hand here on the boards back in September.

So back on topic what should we expect as in terms of photo quality? Will it replace your (anyone) standalone digital camera? Personally I've never owned a camera - standalone only from those used in my phones.

I'll consider purchasing this from SE if I can get beyond the headset jack - after all I'm already used to it from SE and was very annoyed with only a 2.5mm on my Nokia E71. This is why I wanted it. We'll see how it performs but from the video on Youtube and also from Mobile Burn this thing seems FAST!

Hmmm . . . How interesting . . . and all of a sudden we have lots of experts in here regarding the s60 and the Symbian Foundation There are quite a few dedicated forums where programmers have debated this at lengt long before the SE fans come 'onboard'. I don't feel like arguing, is to early days and it looks like the truth might put of some users of my beloved OS For the more 'setback' user. If you know a bit about the s60 OS/C++ and the word 'leaves' means more then the green stuff growing in the trees, you are in for something among the SE fans peace . . .

Will there be a VGA video recording?
The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand...

Of course and not only that. The latest S60 (Symbian Foundation if you don't like to use the s60 name), has specs for HD too How about 1280x720 16:9 ratio at 30fps. Not full HD but close enough

Hmm. So at the last MWC, SE announced the Xperia X1, a fully rounded and branded WM handset destined for the second half of the year. It eventually turned up in December, with supply still short in many areas, and with interest in the handset largely squandered.

At this MWC, SE announced a "concept" model, with an unofficial name and specs subject to change, and again we're supposed to believe this will turn up in the second half of this year, despite being notably less developed and far more innovative in design than the X1. Does anyone actually believe we'll see this phone in 2009?

Assuming we don't (which is a very fair assumption IMHO) how long can SE survive without anything decent in the high-end market? And how outdated will the "Idou" seem when it eventually limps out?

The have finally woken up from the long deep slumber! Well done SE! NOTHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ON THIS ONE! Well, almost nothing except what Boinng raised about it being a concept at this stage and whether it will hit the streets the earliest in Q2 or will it be another X1 mess?

Other than that great to see the old SE back in the finest form!
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009

If it will be released in december, it will be too late.. why? because samsung is coming hard, and nokia too. So they have to move fast, and play it right. Let's not get very excited, since it may be cancelled :/ or not meet up to our standards. I hope this will be a hit for SE, just like the K750i was, and the K800 too.. And it will be a WoW! just like the first UIQ phone in its time. this IF it will be released in Q2..

The X1 was released on time. And if it released in 6 months you can bet it probably still records video at QVGA

Just, and only in certain markets... I see trouble ahead with this one.

With the X1 they were using a tried and tested OS, a manufacturer that knocked out new WM models every few days, and they had all the branding and marketing already sorted out for MWC, and they still took it right down to the wire in December to get the phone out, by which time it was already surrounded by near identical (or superior) phones from HTC and elsewhere.

With Idou, they don't even know this phone's name yet (except that its apparently not Xperia). They've basically got a loose collection of specs (that might change), an OS which doesn't exist yet (it will "become" Symbian Foundation - when?), and they're showing off a few attractive, but essentially dummy handsets behind glass. And this they're going to deliver as soon if not sooner than the X1, and before the competition makes it look stupid?

Sorry, but I have a bad feeling about Idou. It's the exact phone that we all wanted to see from SE, but have we really seen it? Really?

Umm.. check out youtube. The Idou came out of the glass and showed us some transitions that other phones could still dream of.

There is no just! It either came out in the period they said it would, or didn't. It was never tied down to a day or a week.
And so what if it doesn't have a name? Not many phones do at the early developmental stage. They're waiting until the final specs are confirmed, so then they can place it within the portfolio.
Remember, the site says it's going to be released within 6 months.
