Sony Ericsson Anzu Previewed


Eldar Murtazin of Mobile-Review is at it again. The serial phone leaker had just days ago announced that Sony Ericsson is planning to come up with a new high end Android device codenamed the Anzu. That handset, which the company might christen the Xperia X12 has now been previewed by the man himself and he doesn’t seem to be very impressed. Eldar, has a history of reviewing soon to be launched handsets which somehow manage to end up with him much before most others would have even heard of it.

This time around, its the turn of the Anzu which is likely to become the flasgship Sony Ericsson handset when launched. The Anzu boasts of a 4.3 inch, 854*480 pixel LCD display, an 800 Mhz Qualcomm MSM7230 processor (which as you now know, is also used on the T-Mobile
G2). This handset was earlier thought to be running the latest version of Android – the Gingerbread. This prototype however runs Android 2.1 much to our disappointment.

The Anzu also adds a no longer exciting 12 megapixel camera to the spec sheet. This particular sample however could only snap pictures at 3 megapixels . It would also be able to do 720p video recording which has of late become the de facto standard for video recording on any self respecting smartphone. The problem with the Anzu is that by the time it arrives, there could be contenders that could be doing full HD recording and playback.

Eldar also claims that the Anzu’s build quality is a step down from that of existing Xperia handsets – but then this was just a prototype so there is chance that many of the things you are seeing here would have been changed when the final version arrives in the next few months.
