Now that the X10 announcement is behind us, the focus is back on the upcoming Sony Ericsson ‘Kurara’, Satio’s little sister. The ‘Kurara’ will be launched under the Entertainment Unlimited banner and will be based on the Symbian S60 platform. According to rumors, the device will sport a 3.5 inch AMOLED touchscreen, an 8.1 megapixel camera with autofocus and HD-recording.
In all probability, the ‘Kurara’ will be launched at MWC next year and should be available in H1 2010.

Rumours are appearing online that Sony Ericsson are working on a scaled down version of Satio to be presented at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next year. The current chatter on the tubes is that it will also be S60 and feature a full touchscreen like Satio, but instead of a 12 MP camera it will sport an 8 MP camera. Apparently named Kurara (at least for the moment), the device is said to be part of the Entertainment Unlimited series.

A new picture of earlier shown Susan appeared on the net, if you look on the statusbar it looks alot like the Android statusbar. If Susan runs Android or not isn’t known, it could be a new Sony Ericsson platform or a new Symbian phone perhaps?

Bad news for those patiently (or not) awaiting the arrival of Satio in the UK tomorrow … it’s been delayed. Carphone Warehouse, the UK’s largest independent mobile retailer, was due to launch the 12.1 MP handset tomorrow, but that has been put on hold with no date given as to when it will go on sale. One imagines (and hopes) that it’s soon given that sales material and expectations had all been geared towards a launch date of tomorrow. The delay was only announced today so it is presumably something outside Carphone’s control.
Whether or not this delay will affect Orange and Vodafone’s launches isn’t clear yet. It may be that it’s just Carphone that’s affected and the other two will go ahead with a launch tomorrow as scheduled. Carpone would be selling generic unbranded, unlocked handsets whereas both Orange and Vodafone stores would sell branded locked handsets, hence the stock assignments for each of the three companies would be different and thus it may be just Carphone that’s experiencing a delay. We’ll know soon enough …

The folks over at GSMArena have done it again! Apparently, they’ve managed to get their hands on Sony Ericsson’s future flagship phone - the 12 megapixel Satio touchscreen cameraphone. And they’re really liking it. Like, really. They also say the screen quality is amongst the best they’ve seen, despite it being TFT and that itscapacitive nature doesn’t hinder usability at all. Furthermore, they state that the Satio produced the most high-quality photos they’ve ever seen from a phone and that it can easily replace a mid-range standalone camera. Pretty cool, huh? Oh, and that the VGA clip quality and video playback are superb.
Did I mention they love the interface? Well, for the whole preview plus pictures, photo samples and videos click the Source link. You know you want to.
