Hmm... well we know that come October 1st that Sony Mobile will be moving HQ from Sweeden to Japan. From what I gather, any and all phones we're seeing now are the results of the work done in Sweeden. Do we have any info indicating that work on mobiles was also underway in Japan seperate from the Sweeden team for the past several+ months?
I don't know if that question makes much sense, but a lot of the "inside info" we get on this forum and XDA seem to come from people who are closely tied to the Sweeden operation - correct me if I'm wrong. All of those people seem to dismiss the Xperia Z rumours with all its high end specs as rubbish, which is why the rest of us also think that, but hope they're true. Now *IF* the Xperia Z rumours are true, then maybe it's being developed by a seperate team in Japan. It might explain why the insiders who roam these forums have no knowledge about such a phone... unless of course they do know and just aren't allowed to say anything... oh how I hate all this speculation... makes me sound like a conspiracy nut
Anyways, just gonna sit back and wait for the end of August. Do we have any expectations of mobile related announcements occuring before then?

That's the ugliest thing I've ever seen! Come on, look at this:
And people said the S3 was ugly! It's pure beauty compared to Sony's piece of crap... It lacks any symmetry and it's shapes are absolutely disproportionate!

It's actually better looking than those pictures make you think.
what I am asking myself is more: why wait another couple of months if you can get an equal phone with better materials already now? e.g. the HTC one s or x?

I guess rumours of it having a metal back were either mistaken or there will be different versions of the Mint.
It is pretty much what I expected though. As such, I shall sit tight and wait for the 2013 lineup.
It's hard to tell, but can anyone make out if it has an arc design?

It has an arc design......and its still ugly. Not a bad device though, good performer if you look at it as an all rounder phone. The Xperia S/U/P designs are way better though, very distinctive.

Thanks for the reply.I do wonder if this will be the last of the Sony Ericsson phones. I am holding out hope for some boundary pushing devices from Sony at CES.

Before everyone starts screaming ugly remember when Mobile Review previewed Xperia Arc. I remember we all thought it was fugly as hell and we started complaining how x10 was sooo much better looking. Arc is imo one of the best S(E) designs ever made and a lot of people agree with me.
Mobile review has a way of taking photos that make phones look like shit, Ill wait until we see some offiicial photos before I comment on the design
