[Q] LT29i, Kraith S4

---

Hi,
I heard some rumours that sony will commercialise an upgraded version of the current XS (lt29i) with a Snapdragon Kraith S4 (Quad core) in June!

French source http://www.phonandroid.com/xperia-s-...dragon-s4.html

What do you think ?

That is the Xperia Arc successor not upgraded Xperia S.

S4 is a dual core CPU instead of quad core

God I hope not, that's a slap in the face to all early adopters.
However it's more likely they will use this chipset in the Hayabusa model supposedly coming in June/July.

Or maybe it won't be released in June.

Or maybe it's a larger phone.

Or maybe maybe... we'll have to wait and see

Larger phone? Yes its a 4.6 inch device.

june is when it will release.
Also s4 is a cortex a15 dual.core chip, so its faster than quad core nvidia tegra 3 and the samsung exynos quad core a9 chip to be used in gs3

4.6" screen? where did you see that?

Hope this gonna be exactly the same way as the Xperia S

but with better processor, lte, and ics buttons instead of these three little dots

and of course, dockable

Hayabusa only has ics on screen buttons. No hardware buttons.
Also as I mentioned earlier, hayabusa will be nothing like the xperia s. Its the design successor to the xperia arc
And yes it does feature LTE

With resolution of 720 x 1196 no the full 1080 HD so I assume it would have 4.2 inch display as the Sony Xperia S with a 4.3 inch display and the ion 4.55 inch display wiht both has a bigger resolution of 720 x 1280 and the full 1080HD.

So looking at the reolution size it definitely look to be around 4.2 inch because why would the samrtphone be 4.6 inch when the resolution is smaller than than the S and ion version.

They left vertical room in the resolution to support the on screen ICS buttons like the Galaxy Nexus i'm guessing, the screen size could be any inch.

Mate,

Where did u get this info from? I can't find any photos on it or specs.

Always loved the design of the Arc, would have had one if they gave it dual cores which is my min and max requirements for a mobile phone.
