Say hello to the lovely Rachael
Clearly not ones for maintaining healthy relations with their Scandinavian neighbours, Danish phone site Mobil has uncovered internal documents on what appear to reveal Sony Ericsson’s upcoming Android based mobile phone.
Pencilled in for announcement later this year, the impressive looking handset goes under the codename Rachael and will be the latest addition to their XPERIA handset range.
Details reveal a 1GHZ Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, and HSPA speed up to 7.2 Mbps, while it also claims to sport great 3D graphics capabilities.
Amongst some of the more vague handset specs, it's not clear how big the touchscreen will be but Mobil sources suggest it will measure in at no less than 4 inches, while screen resolution is speculated to be up to 800 x 480 pixels. Additionally it is not apparent whether there will be a slide-out keyboard to appease those a little less favourable to touchscreen typing.
On the connection front, there’s a 3.5mm headphone jack and a mini-USB connector positioned at the top of the phone. In a true gazumping of its fellow smartphone compatriots, there’s an 8-megapixel camera with auto focus that makes the iPhone 3GS’s 3-megapixel offering pale in comparison.
Likely to operate on the upcoming Android 2.0 software, Rachael at first glance certainly looks like the type of handset you would happily show off to your mates.
