Detailed pictures of the Sony Ericsson Nozomi surfaces

Here it is boys and girls, the most detailed pictures of Sony Ericsson‘s upcoming flagship smartphone ever released to the public.

The official name for the Sony Ericsson Nozomi (aka Xperia arc HD) is still not yet known but some specs have been revealed along with the pictures.

The Nozomi will come with Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread — yes, Gingerbread and NOT Ice Cream Sandwich. It will feature a 4.3-inch LCD display with 720p resolution (1280 x 720 pixels). There’s also apparently a whopping 12 megapixel camera with full 1080p HD video recording. You also get a HDMI out to push those 1080p video easily to your HDTV. The device will powered by a dual-core 1.5Ghz Snapdragon processor with 1GB of RAM to keep things smooth.

Unfortunately the Nozomi omits a micro SD card expansion slot. You do however get the option of 16GB or 32GB versions.

Other things worth noting from the detailed pictures is that the device looks to using a micro SIM and the battery appears non-user-removable despite having a removable back plate.

No launch date has been revealed but expect the new Sony Ericsson to make an appearance at CES 2012 in January 10 to 13.

So, does this Sony Ericsson tickle your fancy?
