nsane.forums Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Sony is apparently working on a new smartphone that has some monster hardware specs, including a 13 megapixel camera, a 720p front facing camera, a 4.55 inch screen and support for LTE networks.Smartphones are already replacing point-and-shoot digital cameras as the consumer's choice for taking quick pictures. Now there's word that an upcoming smartphone from Sony could match the megapixel count of higher end digital cameras.Venture Beat reports that the phone comes from Sony Ericsson and could be one of the last smartphones to have the Sony Ericsson label. Sony bought out Ericsson's stake in the mobile phone venture and the deal is scheduled to close in January 2012.The story states that the upcoming phone is being called the Sony Ericsson LT28at at the moment (it's more than possible that the name will change). The phone contains a 13 megapixel camera which will be one of the most powerful cameras, if not the most powerful, ever put inside a smartphone. The device will also have a front facing camera that will be capable of supporting 720p video resolutions.The Android-based phone will also have a large 4.55 inch screen and support for the faster LTE wireless network. The article claims that AT&T will be the wireless carrier for the phone and it will be released sometime later in 2012. It seems likely that Sony might officially announce the new phone at CES 2012 in early January. View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ck_kent Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 What's with these megapixel race? It's not like most people will print it in large posters or billboards. I bet many of them will only post it on social networks anyway. :dunno: Why can't they just improve the image quality of the camera first like giving it an optical image stabilizer, a 25x optical zoom, improving image quality in low light conditions, or giving it a good dynamic range, or burst shots, or ... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangkungan Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 13mp on a puny sensor? :wtf: that's simply :shit: .. it's like trying to catch rain with a spoon rather than a bowl.. all the more reason for good ol' Sony to command a hefty price.. agreed with ck_kent on improving optical performance :showoff: rather than cramming in more pixels on a joke that are cameraphone sensors..
