If this dedicated gaming phone is f series, does that mean it will not get playstation branding? I suppose not, because k series have long had cyber-shot branding. But it would be interesting to find out more about that, because at least its something new and refreshing from SE.
To me, Shiho is just the same thing regurgitated a year later. It looks almost identical to the K800i, but a slider, most of the specs are the same, probably slightly better in various ways (but of course, Id expect that anyway a year on from the K850i). The UI should be far more enticing, because the 2-yr old design surely isnt (from a designers perspective, at least).
IMO they should have given it a design closer to the K850's (extremely attractive compared to shiho) and just dropped the fingerprint magnet problem. Another thing is, I dont know why they dropped the touch-capacitance keys. Ive used them, found them intuitive and fast, everyone I talked to about it (average consumer types) was completely wowed by it, and in some cases thought it was touchscreen.
To apply the same thinking, Id hate Paris if it was just software and spec enrichments, but then looked just like the P990 (or the P1, for that matter, if they are too similar). If you compare the G900 to the W960 they are similar design-wise. And yet the changes are sufficient to make them look different.

It's a low/mid-end gaming phone. That's not going to happen. It's not even QVGA res.

@Tigershark42
agree with you on every point you mentioned. I do think the K850 was/is beautifully designed, better than any of the previous and Cybershot models.

The inclusion of WiFi in a feature phone is great. DLNA - about time too.
I was finding it hard to concentrate in work this morning knowing this phone is about to be announced.
Great stuff!

what was wrong in putting optical zoom.....the phone is 20mm anyway
Surely optical zoom mounted in the rear of a phone is pointless? Optical zoom would be better implemented across the width of the phone 'ala the N93 IMO.

What's the spec of the G810 Optical Zoom?
The depth of a thin phone limits the amount of zoom. An 'across the width' optical zoom camera could have room for 15x, 25x maybe even a real zoom lens

Well you CAN, but N93 tried it and it never became popular.

you forgot something, the size of the sensor, in your concept ( the one used in N93 ) the size of the sensor will be very limited, not to mention the Focal length will be very big duo to the limited width of the lenses + the very long space between the lens and the sensor, this will make the view angle of the picture very narrow, I mean if you wanted to take a picture of something close ( like a paper ) you will have to put the camera in more distance that regular in order to have the full paper in the view
