The Sony Ericsson XPERIA Arc has seemingly leaked ahead of its official debut at CES 2011 this week, with Russian site Gagadget offering specs, shots and videos of the slimline, curved smartphone. Previously known as the Sony Ericsson Anzu, the XPERIA Arc has a 4.2-inch 854 x 480 multitouch mineral glass touchscreen, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, an 8-megapixel camera and runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread. It's also said to have DLNA support and an HDMI port, a 16GB microSD card preloaded and a 1,500mAh battery. The Arc measures 125 x 63 x 9 mm, but is 8.7mm at its thinnest point. It's expected to go on sale this quarter. [youtube BTmF5VcPxYc] [gallery] [via Engadget]

Sony Ericsson ANZU/XPERIA X12 previewed

A prototype Sony Ericsson ANZU - aka the XPERIA X12 - has dropped into the hands of Mobile-Review, and they've given it a thorough (some might say pessimistic) preview. The XPERIA X12 has a 4.3-inch 854 x 480 capacitive touchscreen, and is powered by the 800MHz Qualcomm MSM7230 chipset seen on the T-Mobile G2/HTC Desire Z. In this case it's running Android 2.1, but the version the XPERIA X12 will launch with is unconfirmed. Some things are definitely improved on over the X10: the display has native hardware multitouch support, and the chassis is slimmer (though not necessarily more quality-feeling in the hand). However, there's still only 720p HD video capture (with an HDMI output), though that can't be tested on this particular prototype since the 12-megapixel camera doesn't work properly. [via Twitter]
