Sony Xperia S announced
10 January 2012 by Olav Hellesø-Knutsen Following the Sony Xperia Ion for AT&T announcement earlier today, Sony has another high-end Android smartphone on display. The Sony Xperia S is a 4.3 inch dual core CPU model
The Sony Xperia S is a model we have seen leaked photos of many times before. While the latest leak photos was wearing the Sony Ericsson name, this final product image from CES has the Sony logo on top. Sony Xperia S seems to be a smaller version of the Sony Xperia Ion without the LTE high speed connectivity. And for those not tied up with AT&T in the US, Sony offers the same content package in a smaller package. Where the Xperia Ion has a huge 4.6 inch display, the Xperia S has a smaller 4.3 inch display. But with the same 720x1280 HD resolution. A 1.5 GHz dual core processor should be enough for everyone for some time to come.      Sony has increased the camera megapixels count from 8 to 12. Very few smartphones can offer such a high number of megapixel count. Out my head, I can only think of Samsung Pixon 12, Sony Ericsson Satio and of course the legendary Nokia N8. All these produced excellent image quality, and we can just hope the 12 megapixels sensor in the Sony Xperia S will do the same. Sony Xperia S highlights

If the Ion doesn't come on this side of the pond, I'm soo getting this. Gorgeous!
Good specs, great looks! The two HD cameras are great.
Just got informed about the price by SE Germany... 499 € rrp guys, that's ONEHUNDRED EURO LESS than they initially asked for the Arc and will boil down to a launch price of about 420-450 €.  Great price for an awesome phone!

That's great!! Hope they maintain a similar pricing in the other regions too Quality design (Strong & Elegant), quality specifications, no filth - just how you use the device!
SonyEricsson, ahem, Sony is back! Suddenly my iPhone 4S 32GB is feeling its age, just a tad. If ICS sweetens how to use Android close to iPhone I fear I may not be interested in iPhone 5 late this year. Only the purchases will hold me to iOS. I'm very curious about the speeds of the HSPA+ ... could it possibly be Dual-Band HSPA+ (something that Telus Mobility here in Canada officially operates/supports)?!
I think the marketing director of the Xperia S is the first Android smartphone designer/engineer/director that FINALLY gets it ... "Sony's HD Technology throughout the phone. The technology is only the starting point, the reason its there, is to enable you & I to do amazing things with this smartphone!" ^ THIS is the key beyond all the crazy specs, beyond all the glitter ... because if it cannot deliver on the promise of both then what are you buying it for?! This is something Apple fully understands in ALL of its products since the very beginning. I see this being marketed heavily and going places in a BIG way!

Down: HSPA cat10 14.4Mbps really looking forward to seeing the price for this in north america... and whether it'll be for sale in america or if i'll have to import it from canada.
would also love to know if there is only a single version or if there will be Si and Sa variants... i hope it's just ONE version cause i'd rather not wait until end of second quarter for this bad boy... Does anyone know if this is definitely quad-band HSDPA as the specs sheet suggests, and not 2 different models? I've heard it doesnt have as memory card slot so amyone know what the RAM is if it doesnt have expandable memory?
Please head over to the Sony Xperia S thread to continue discussion of the Xperia S I just noticed... It's not sony ericsson xperia anymore? Just sony xperia? I always seem to say this following an announcement - i hate how it looks.
Good specs but i just dont like it one bit. Pure ugly imo. They should have kept a more curved Arc style. Square, too many joining lines between the casing, especially on the sides of the device. No Sony.. no ! Bring back Ericsson. It is very,square!! I hope more than anything there will be no more poor build quality & creaky back covers. Oh no sorry no battery cover to remove  [ This Message was edited by: Bonovox on 2012-01-10 19:13 ] On 2012-01-10 20:13:10, Bonovox wrote: It is very,square!!
