Sony Ericsson Kurara Preview

The new Sony Kurara, or Satio II, first leaked a couple of weeks ago, and disclosed its 8.1-megapixel camera, touchscreen display and HD video-capture ready status. Sources indicate that this Symbian S60 5th edition device will be powered by a 600 MHz ARM Cortex A8 processor, and a 1200 mAh battery will be providing the juice. It will sport an 8 mega pixel camera that is capable of shooting 720p videos. However, there is no confirmation as to whether the 3.5 inch touch screen display will be high definition (though it should be). Video playback capabilities have been confirmed for H.264, H.263, WMV, Real Video and MPEG4 formats.

This high end phone will have full 3G capabilities giving users quad band network support and access to HSDPA networks. It will also support EDGE, GPRS, and WiFi. Also, the Kurara will support Bluetooth, microUSB and microSD.
