Bookmark topic
I was thinking about Nozomi,and the specs we know so far about it.It is rumored to have a 4.3"+ HD screen,dual-core 1.5ghz processor and a 12mp(16mp possible?) camera.While all those specs are pretty good,i am afraid that Sony Ericsson are still gonna be behind in the cpu/gpu/ram department.I think that they will be using qualcomm processors again and most probably the msm8260 at 1.5ghz.What leads me to believe that is the fact that HTC(which is always the fastest when it comes to using new qualcomm processors) last year came out with the Desire HD which used the msm8255 processor,found in all 2011 xperia models.This year,the same time around HTC announced the Sensation XE,which uses a dual-core 1.5ghz processor,so maybe that's the same processor that will be on Nozomi.I just hope that Sony Ericsson learns from their past year mistakes,and either choose a different cpu(st-ericsson a9600 or ti omap 4470) or if they stick with qualcomm at least use the new krait processors.Competition is fierce when it comes to cpu/gpu and Sony Ericsson has been behind in this department,by not offering not even one dual-core model this year,when even Sony came out with dual-core tablets and media player.
Could anyone with some insight on SE next year portfolio,give us some hints on the direction SE will go/??

Don't we already know? Was it here or maybe on it168 some guy mentioned that next year SE will have a wider range of Android phones than even Samsung. All using the same CPU/GPU found in the Nozomi - 1.5ghz dual core Snapdragon.
I guess its going to be a repeat 2011 next year. Just with more phones and hopefully more profits. Great for low-mid range buyers but high end will be disappointing as this year.
Flagship phone using same CPU as the low end
android.

at least that's a step up...the fact alone that the chip will be produced in 28nm,means lower power consumption,so better battery....we shall see...i just wished they went for st-ericsson a9600...it looks so powerfull in fact sheets

Qualcomm unveils Snapdragon roadmap, 2.5GHz CPUs coming early next year
Senior Vice President of Product Management Cristiano Amon confirmed that the chipmaker's S4 line of silicon will be shipped to manufacturers by the end of this year and should appear in consumer products by the beginning of 2012. Available in single-, dual- or quad-core models, the new, 28nm additions to the Snapdragon family will also support Adreno graphics, 3D and 1080p HD, in addition to 3G and LTE connectivity. If all goes according to schedule, then, we could see a slate of S4-equipped handsets at next year's Mobile World Congress in February, though we'll try to contain our excitement until we get a more specific launch date.

Would be very nice and good for them if SE announce Nozomi (arc 2) in January for March release as it is expected or rumoured and then announce a 16mp flagship running on these quad-core processors at MWC for release, say, in June.

Well quad cores are really not necessery. Really who will need that? I got on my PC quad-core CPU, which are used fully only in really demanding games, and to make advanced calculations. I won't do neither of that on a phone. Just give me dual-core phone with good quality camera(1080p video), and xenon flash. Perfect phone.

They need to be seen to be at the top end of competition. This will garner them sales as well. We've been through this before, the better specced Samsungs and HTCs are outselling the SEs. Before someone mentions Motorola and LG, let me point out that Moto have no supply and LG have fallen in the trap of ignoring the smartphone market for too long and are paying for it. They (LG) are also rubbish!
Stop saying phones don't need quad-core phones because when other manufacturers use them and SE don't it will hurt them in sales.
SE are currently not fully competing in hardware and we all can see the results. I've said it time and again that consumers will tend to buy the better specced phone on the sales people's advice.
SE are not Apple with a strong fanatic following, they once had it, that they can always get away with an ordinary phone. They need to assert themselves from here on.

That's exactly what I had said long time. SE needs a high end phone even if does not fit in consumers need. The biggest reason HTC and Samsung are selling is because of their hardware. They have shitty UI in front of SE. We understand that we really don't need dual core or quad core but there are millions of other consumers who do not understand and wish to have the best of what they are paying. When you get dual core at the same price of single core, it's but obvious people will buy dual core phones. That's where the sales hurt.
