> 12 megapixel Sony Ericsson Kokura on its way?
Bookmark topic
I've received a tip claiming that Sony Ericsson are working on a new 12 megapixel camera phone codenamed the Kokura. No idea where the source of these rumours came from (I'm checking with the tipster as I write), and no pictures either, but the tip is surprisingly detailed, even down to the being chipset used ( a TI 3240, apparently!)
Also from the same tip was news of the Sony Ericsson Yurika. Anyone heard anything about these phones? The details are up on my site, MobileMentalism.com

Lol that sounds pretty cool, but I don't know if I can believe it yet. Yurika sounds like Eureka, so you'd hope its something special if it does exist!

I know Ericsson is or was working with a new platform that can handle this amount of megapixels. So it could be true.

I know there a few Japanese developed handsets on the way but those codenames sound a but suspect to me.

Yes great news. If the platform can support that amount of mega pixels I don't see a reason why they won't make such thing. Also great camera driver and firmware codding would be required for this one, but
can take it imho.

They should also put better sensors in the camera module while they're at it. SE was the first to put cams in phones so they mustn't be losing to Samsung in this department.

They won't mess this up. The problem for
this period was the DB3150 platform they made in order to increase phone performance and megapixels. And as any other new platform it was buggy. I think that's the reason why
reduced the quality of their phones (mainly the 5mp cameras)... But C905 and the other 12MP if it is coming shouldn't be reduced in quality at all IF the platform supports that.

Kokura is a place name and also a family name so it doesn't follow the pattern of girls names.. but happy to be proved wrong..
Yurika is a girls name... so that fits with the pattern !
I will not type the Kanji for these names because there are too many possibilities, and it's not really important.
