Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo

More than a week ago, we found out the Xperia Halon was being renamed the Xperia Neo. Since then, there has been a video previewing the smartphone. There are also a couple of snapshots plus some HD videos shot from the Xperia Neo.

                                                            The preview of the Xperia Neo shows how well the smartphone handles navigation. The transition between different menus is fluid and the animations look really cool. What we cannot judge from this video is whether Neo is multitasking in the background or not. Also, the device is not running any demanding applications or some games. Check out the video below.

 

Apart from the video, there are also some image grabs taken from the Xperia Neo. But apparently, the images have been resized to 2 Megapixels only.

                                                              Most likely, Sony Ericsson’s Vivaz handsets would not have any next-generation experience. Not only the name is going to fade, but new rumors from inside Sony Ericsson are pointing to the device which was leaked few days back with a new name. It’s going to be launched by naming it the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo. Although it wears some design lines similar to the old Vivaz, the Android technology is expected to be way ahead compared to its predecessor.
                                                                 The device is expected to be disclosed at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. This means that it would be showcased alongside  SE’s Xperia Arc and yet-to-be-announced Xperia Play, among Sony Ericsson’s fleet of smartphones.
                                                                 Finally, there are a couple of videos shot in HD. The first looks pretty good but the second is not that impressive in comparison. Anyway, you can still have a look at the videos posted below.

                                                             
                                                                    Hallon’ – Sony Ericsson’s upcoming smartphone has been thoroughly screened at Mobile-Review. The smartphone is referred to as Vivaz 2 (by reviewer Eldar Murtazin), but Hallon is the rumored name given to the smartphone. The smartphone looks like an improvised version of Vivaz with certain tweaks by throwing Symain out of the window and going in favor of Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Having all this, it still manages to get a positive review and has updated features  such as display to       480 x 854 resolution, and the 1 GHz MSM7630 CPU paired with Adreno 205 graphics. Hallon also features an 8-megapixel camera with EXMOR R sensor at the back and capable of recording video of  up to 720p resolution which is same as that of Xperia Arc.
