Sony Ericsson reveals camera-focused teaser ahead of CES 2012

Sony Ericsson has revealed a quartet of clues to it's "big" and "exciting" news for CES 2012, consisting of camera-related pictures.

We've got a close-up of the camera shutter button on a graphite-coloured handset, a shutter close-up with HD marked below it, an onscreen still/video option key and a microSD port to feast our eyes upon.

All these camera-related tidbits tie in quite nicely with the 13MP camera we're expecting to see on the LT28at but more likely its pointing to the 12MP snapper of the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc HD.

Familiar

As the eagle-eyed bods over at SlashGear point out, the images all bear similarities to the Xperia Arc S which lends further credence to the Arc HD theory (and the fact that one of the pictures actually says HD is a bit of a clue too).

Sony Ericsson's tantalising pictures were posted to the company's Facebook page after the last tease was publisehd on Google+ - will a Twitter clue complete the social networking big three?

Whatever else happens, you can be sure that we'll find out all there is to know at CES 2012 next week.

New Motorola Razr outed in teaser video

Motorola has released a teaser video for a new phone being announced on the 18 October, with a number of visual hints to help is guess what it will be.

Given that the main thrust of the video seems to be that the new device will be faster and thinner, with multiple references made to a razor blade, it's pretty likely we're about to see the latest iteration from Motorola's popular Razr brand.

Add to this the leaked press shots and information around the Motorola Droid Razr that made their way to This Is My Next in the last fortnight, and it seems we're almost certain to be seeing the new Motorola Razr debuting on 18 October.

Early mooted specs include a 4.5-inch screen, a dual-core CPU running at 1.2GHz, 1 GB of RAM and an 8MP camera with 1080p video capture - essentially making it a slimmed-down and beefed-up version of the Motorola Atrix.

But an Atrix fused with a Defy, as there's plenty of reference to the fact the phone will have Gorilla Glass (the diamond) be covered in Kevlar (bullet-proof) and splash proof too (erm... the rocket?).

The question remains what the phone will be called in the UK - the names of Motorola Droid HD and Motorola Spyder have been mooted by some, with the latter making the most sense for us Brit-dwellers, given our apathy to the Droid moniker.
