Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc HD Specs & Images Leaked

Tweet

While there is obviously still plenty of information left to figure out, it does look like we are being given a nice first look at the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc HD smartphone. And as the HD in the name implies, the handset looks like it will arrive sporting a 720p quality display.

That being said, we have the above images, which show off the front and back of the handset and some of the specs. And for those who are thinking they have heard this device mentioned before and are having a hard time placing it, it was previously floating around with the codename of “Nozomi” and the model number of LT26i.

That being said, while the images offer a decent look at the front and back, we were first drawn to the LED band that wraps around from the from to the back of the phone. So far the details as to what that will (can) do are sparse, however it would certainly be a good way to get some alert notifications, especially if the color was able to change based on different alerts.

Otherwise, some of the specs that have been revealed thus far include a 4.3 inch touchscreen display with a 1280 x 720 pixel resolution, dual-core 1.5GHz processor and 1GB of RAM. And honestly speaking, while that all sounds nice, they are fitting as to what we have been seeing mentioned lately in terms of high-end Android devices. Not to mention, it should also have the usual array of features including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and a microSD card slot for storage.

So far it is looking like the handset will arrive with Android 2.3 Gingerbread, however given the timing as to when this will most likely come available — we suspect that it will eventually get an update to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Of course, just to clarify that last statement, that is nothing more than speculation on our part.
