Also known as the Mint, Mobile Review got some early hands on with the device before its launch. The site has not only revealed the specifications of the device, but also quite a few images of its form factor and custom UI running on top of Google Android 4.0 ICS.
In terms of power under the hood, the Sony Lt30p “Mint” features a 4.3-inch display with a 720p resolution, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of Storage, a 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Dual-Core processor, microSD expandable storage, microSIM slot and NFC. One of the most impressive features of the device is that it features a 720p front-facing camera and a monstrous 13MP 1080p rear-facing camera. The website, Mobile Review, claims the screen which is actually 4.3-inches looks a lot bigger when placed next to a Samsung Galaxy SIII.
In Its form factor, the device is expected to be thinner than the Sony XPERIA S.

Going the Vanilla ICS way, the device has eliminated the need for physical buttons under the display and now functions such as back, home; menu and multitasking can be taken care of from the touchscreen itself. The only physical buttons on the device are the power button, volume rocker and camera shutter button.

No pricing or availability has been revealed, but we can expect the device to be officially unveiled at IFA Berlin 2012.
If the device is aimed at the high-end market it will compete with the likes of the HTC One X and the Samsung Galaxy SIII, Both of which have been available in the market for quite some time now. Better late than never, we hope the “Mint” has some tricks up its sleeves to take on the competition.
