Sony Ericsson ST18i Urushi leaks online07 June 2011
Android Gingerbread handset might be the next Xperia
It's landing in September, and we would guess that the Sony Ericsson ST18i Urushi will have a new name when it does. Probably beginning with the word 'Xperia', if we were to take an educated guess.
According to GSM Arena, it's likely to be a smaller take on the Xperia Arc, so the name Xperia Arc Mini shouldn't be discounted. That's pure speculation for now though. Thankfully the specification is more cut and dried.
That same site says the touch-screen smartphone will offer Android Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3) for the OS at launch, mixing it with a customised Sony Ericsson interface. There's also a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 335MB of RAM, Adreno 205 graphics, an eight-megapixel camera with LED flash and 720p video shooting and a 3.2-inch, 854x480 resolution screen with Bravia Mobile.
As we said, September is the proposed shelf date. But we suspect a launch (and a new name) will be unveiled much earlier. Keep checking back for more.
