After last month’s websiteand image leaks, we’ve been waiting for Sony Ericsson to make it official. And now they have. The Xperia Acro, flaunting a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 8.1 megapixel camera, and Adreno 205 GPU is heading to Japan this summer — making it a possible match for the Azusa, uncovered by NenaMark earlier this week. The new kid in Akihabara was designed specifically for the Japanese market, runs Android 2.3.3 on a 4.2-inch touchscreen, and adds unique features like a mobile wallet and TV functionality. Hit the break for some quick and dirty PR.

A Chinese blog unveiled some pictures of the upcoming Windows Phone 7 from Sony Ericsson. These pictures show a device clearly labelled as a prototype and not for sale, and it shows an attractive, large-screened and relatively thin slider.
The UI is clearly from a very old build of Windows Phone 7, and it has been suggested by some of our readers that this may be a scrapped handset after Microsoft and Sony Ericsson could not come to an agreement around Xbox Live after Mobile World Congress 2011. As we know that Sony Ericsson was after all one of the announced launch partners at the time.

We’ve heard many rumors about this Playstation phone from Sony Ericsson and we’ve heard that the device will be named under the ‘Xperia’ brand and now we can reveal that the gaming handset will almost certainly go under the ‘Xperia Play’ brand. One of our sources have some evidence in the form of a European Union trademark filing using the ‘Xperia Play’ name. Surprisingly, XperiaPlay domain names (including com, net and org) have been registered by a PR agency called Jung Relations which is based in Stockholm, Sweden (where Sony Ericsson is based). Of course we guess that one of its clients is Sony Ericsson. Pocket-Lint has a statement that the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play will launch at MWC and will be available is shops starting from April. It’s an interesting device, let’s wait for the next issue. [Xperia10]

Even though it is too good to be true but I hope Sony Ericsson will make this gadget became a reality soon. We have New videos of the still unannounced Sony Ericsson PlayStation Phone codenamed Zeus.

Rumors suggest Sony Ericsson may announce the device later this month. I can’t wait to see this. Watch the video after the jump. [BGR] Continue Reading

Currently I’m using Samsung Galaxy Spica i5700 with Android 2.1 OS, I bought it for about $280 in Indonesia. But I think this newest Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 could be a good alternative to feel the Android sensation because it will be retailed with less than EUR200 (US$247). Yes, so if you consider to have an android smartphone with a low budget you could take a look at this Xperia X8. The Xperia X8 comes with 3 inch TFT HVGA with 320 x 480 pixels capacitive touchscreen (same size with spica i5700) it means that the size is between X10 mini and X10, 128MB internal storage with additional storage via microSD card, a 3.2 megapixel camera with VGA video recording, Wi-Fi 802.11g and HSPA at 7.2Mbps download. So I guess it’s a pretty good offer, doesn’t it? No official confirmation yet whether the phone will be launched with OS 1.6 then be updated to OS 2.1 later or directly pre-loading OS 2.1, but it looks like it will be available in Q3. [Slashphone]
