Just Another Mobile Phone Blog: Sony XPERIA Honami i1 live pics


More at the link. It looks to be in the same 5" footprint as the Xperia Z and it has a speaker on the bottom so the rumors look to be holding up so far. Instead of a 16MP or 21MP, or a camera with interchangeable lenses, it looks like we'll have to settle for a 20MP shooter. Darn. The metal edges look very nice though.

I'm hoping for better IR placement than what's on the Xperia ZL and for an improved Walkman software. If Honami is as good as my ZL, I may very well splurge for it, giving my ZL to my spouse...

Does the camera button seem to be in a really odd place if you should choose to take a vertical shot?

Not to me, but I have to admit: I never use it. I don't care much for it, the "real camera feel" is unimportant to me, and I've found the hardware button to cause more unintended camera movement than the virtual button on the screen. I know that a lot of people, specially reviewers, like having the hardware button, but I think it's a useless piece of hardware.

I hope this phone is introduced in France on the 4th and available for AT&T.
