Lets hope the all the info about Sofia are true. The bad thing is that untill now we haven't see a confirmed spy photo of Sophia or its characteristics. Only rumours for more than 6 months. SE should leak some info about it due the fact that N95 is in stores and will probably be a hit!!!

I can't see a phone that expensive being a hit seller. Its too niche and high-end.
The K850i will be a hit as long as the price is reasonable. That way it will be compared to the N95 camerawise but be touted as much cheaper.

I'm struggling to see why Sofia would have to be the approximate size of the N95 if it isn't going to have wi-fi or GPS. Surely the 5MP camera unit doesn't take up that much space. IF it is released in September/October
would have had many months in which to have improved on the size of the N95 (which it seems is seen to be it's nearest competitor, although I would have said the N95 was closer to one of the smart phones SE are rumoured to be releasing Maria/Elena or whatever, I'm confused with those).
I think if Sofia is anything bigger than a K800 it'll struggle to sell just because it would have taken far too long to be released and would be too big. If it came out tomorrow and was big, not such a biggie, if it was end of October but sexy as hell also not a biggie, but late and big is a big problem.
I myself am waiting for Sofia based on the rumour it would be the size of the K610 (which I believe Shaliron said in the first post). For me I would be slightly disappointed if it were the size of the K800; it would have to be smaller to satisfy me.
Edit: Even the spy shots that Shaliron has labelled the UIQ 5MP looks slimmer than the N95. How can Sofia be bigger?

@nokiamaniax
Trust me, Sofia will have HSDPA
Otherwise, yes, it'll be a very poor decision indeed.
@those complaining about menu icons/design
Already been implemented, at least with the
range. Flash menus are implemented very well by
@mustafabay
Those rumours (at least the K610 one) have been proven false. Why would SE make a K610 successor with better specs than the K810? Those are just wishful specs from a dreamer TBH
Even the W825 rumour looks false...
@goldenface
W810's been replaced by the W610, K750 --> K550 and K610 --> W660.

Interestingly, in his N95 camera review, Eldar from M-R says that Sofia will be shipping in SEPTEMBER, a period that AFAIK wasn't mentioned before.
Also, he said that Sofia's mp3 player will have Walkman 3.0!!! (but as we know, Sofia will not be a smartphone)
He also mentioned that Sofia would be roughly the same size as N95;
although this doesnt make sense to me.
I really hope Sofia will be considerably slimmer than N95
Not quite right there.
Eldar wrote:
In terms of mobile phones closest analogue cell Nokia N95 will be in September in Sofia product of Sony Ericsson. The same size corps, a number of improvements for a series of CyberShot and emphasis on music component (3.0 Walkman and this is not a phone). Products occur over time, and even in future comparisons would be meaningless, because different price positioning value opportunities. Produced by Sony Ericsson is the expensive, but it will later.
Eldar did write that Sofia would be out in September, and being the new flagship Cyber-shot, it will have even more enhancements. I'm assuming enhancements like photo key lights, maybe more manual controls etc.
And on top of that, to emphasize the
and Cyber-shot segregation, he said that
phones will have v3.0 Walkman player with its own enhancements, such as DSP chips etc.
Also, rog on MR has said that the Sofia will have a lens cover, but not the one that we're used to, so I'm imagining something like this:
So, instead of physically opening the lens cover, you'd just hold the camera button, and it'd open automatically.
UPDATE:
Sofia will have motorised lens cover (similar to Sony T33).
Sofia will be released in September or October.
The Cyber-shot line will continue with more camera related enhancements.

the only problem i see in their strategy, is that it could occur, that they slowly move away from their customers
i for example, don't need a cybershot phone with 5mp or a walkman phone with 2gb memory
i want a classy designed phone, built with high quality maybe with different materials(carbon fiber,leather,stainless steel...). it should be small, have a good readable screen and 3G(orHSPDA)

I think Sofia might look like that sony cam,which is nice imo. Brushed metal is also pretty neat...but september is a bit disapointing.
I hope SE will gives us some new uiq phones sooner than that

@shaliron
the camera cover/lens shown on that Sony camera is what i thought it to be like..... well going by the spy pics of the 'unknown' 5mp phone (test bed) it didnt have one, but as it had a circle design, i thought they would put something like this on it....
