JVC’s newest camera, the GC-PX10 (here’s the older version, the GC-PX1), can capture 12 megapixel photos, full HD video and up to 60 shots per second.

The physical bulk of this camera is derived from its over sized lens – take a look at the backing and you’ll notice how slim it is.  Under the hood is the FALCONBRID high speed image sensor, which was first seen in the GS-TD1, JVC’s first full 3D HD camcorder.  On top of 12 megapixel photos at a 6400 ISO, it can capture 8.3 megapixel shots while recording full 1080 vide0, and snag slow-mo video at 300fps, provided you’re willing to deal with VGA resolution.

Other features include a 10x optical zoom, a Konica Minolta HD lens, a mode dial for automatic and manual settings, microphone output and a headphone input.  They’ve also packed in a tiltable 3-inch touchscreen LCD, HDMI output and 32GB of storage (expandable by SD card slot).

The JGV GC-PX10 will go on sales this month for $899.95.

Licensing the Android platform was single handledly the best thing Sony Ericsson could have done for their mobile phone business.  The Xperia Arc might be the next best.

As alluded to it’s an Android phone.  That screen, it measures 4.2-inches, is multitouch and boasts a resolution of 854×480 pixels.  The body of the Arc measures 8.7mm at its slimmest point.  Storage comes by way of a microSD card slot and under the hood is a 1Ghz processor.  In terms of optics there is an 8.1 megapixel sensor that can capture HD video (HDMI output for TVs) and has a f/2.4 for low light situations.  

The Arc will ship with Android 2.3 sometime in late Q1 or early Q2 of this year in most markets.

Update: Checkout our HTC Thunderbolt first look.

Yesterday, Verizon blew the doors off CES with the announcement of a multitude high end phones.  For now, though, we’re focusing on the previously leaked HTC Thunderbolt.  Without further a due, let’s dive into the features and specs, shall we?

First off, this bad boy is LTE or 4G compatible.  We’re not sure on battery life (1400 mAh capacity) since in previous testing over a 4G network (not done by us) proved to be challenging for some if not most smartphones since the power demands are so great.  Good news is that you should be able to toggle this feature off to conserve.

There is a 4.3-inch WVGA touchscreen, Dolby surround tech, an 8 megapixel camera with LED flash and HD video capture mode.  The front of the phone sports a 1.3 megapixel camera for Skype video calls.  Android is the OS of choice and it should come packed with 2.2 if we’re not mistaken. There is a microSD card slot that is compatible with up to a 32GB card and the Thunderbolt has Hotspot capabilities with the ability to support up to 8 devices simultaneously.  And lets not over look the dual mics for added noise cancellation and 1Ghz chip. Other quintessential features include Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi b/g/n, GPS, FM radio, compass and a g-sensor.

No word yet on a launch, but we’re guessing Q1 of this year.

LAS VEGAS and BASKING RIDGE, N.J., Jan. 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — At the 2011 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), Verizon Wireless and HTC today unveiled its newest 4G smartphone, the HTC ThunderBolt, one of the world’s first 4G LTE Android smartphones, coming soon exclusively to the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network.

Taking advantage of Verizon Wireless’ 4G LTE network and the intuitiveness of the HTC Sense user experience, HTC ThunderBolt is one of the first smartphones to integrate Skype mobile™ with video calling. Rather than relying on a standalone application, a Skype mobile with video call can be made as easily as a standard voice call – with features like presence icons that indicate the availability status of friends built into the standard contacts list. A front-facing camera enables simple video calling, and the 4.3-inch display brings friends and family into clear focus.

HTC ThunderBolt features exceptional speed and power with the newest generation of the blazing-fast 1GHz Snapdragon processor. Verizon Wireless customers will also enjoy the premium HTC Sense user experience, running on the Android 2.2 platform. Creating and consuming mobile multimedia content is made possible with a stunning 4.3-inch WVGA display, Dolby surround sound, 8-megapixel camera and HD video recording. With wireless DLNA capability, the HTC ThunderBolt can easily stream and share content directly with compatible home theater components, including HDTVs and stereo receivers that feature built-in DLNA support.

“We are proud to not only be bringing one of the first 4G LTE Android smartphones to the Verizon Wireless network, but to offer people the unprecedented speed and ease of use that the HTC ThunderBolt provides to them,” said Jason Mackenzie, president of HTC Americas. “What makes 4G so compelling is not just technology, but what the technology allows people to do. With HTC ThunderBolt and the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network, 4G is brought to life as people stay connected with friends, family and content faster than ever before possible.”

“Our 4G LTE network and the HTC Sense user experience combine to enable our customers to connect with friends, family and information on a whole new level,” said Marni Walden, vice president and chief marketing officer for Verizon Wireless. “Customers will see the difference of 4G speeds when accessing content via the Web, Android applications or other Verizon Wireless applications.”

The Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network, launched in December 2010, is the fastest, most advanced 4G network in the United States, providing speeds up to 10 times faster than Verizon Wireless’ 3G network. Verizon Wireless’ 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network currently reaches one-third of all Americans, with plans to expand the network to the company’s entire 3G coverage area over the next three years.

The HTC ThunderBolt will be on display at CES in Verizon Wireless’ booth (#35216 in the South Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center).

The details are few and far between, but one of Nokia’s newest phones, the C7, has supposedly leaked into the webosphere.  It’s far from stirring up the kind of publicity the iPhone 4 experienced, but for those looking for a touchscreen phone with a high rez camera and Symbian 5 look no further.  Specifically, it’s got a 3.5-inch multitouch screen, an 8 megapixel camera with dual LED flash and facial recognition, WiFi, GPS and possibly even Bluetooth 3.o.

We’re still waiting for word to drop on an actual launch day, but until then we’ll take some pleasure in knowing that Sony Ericsson’s first Android phone, the Xperia X10, will launch sometime in February of next year.

In case you forgot this phone has an 8 megapixel camera, a 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 1GB of built-in storage, 4 inch touchscreen, WiFi, GPS. 3.5mm headphone jack and more.

If you’re interested, there is some sample video after the ‘leap’ that was shot with the X10.

Sony Ericsson maybe struggling for market share, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have a few tricks up their sleeves.  Leaked by way of Expansys, we now know that the handset manufacture will release an Android version of their Xperia phone called the Xperia X3 Rachael.   Spec wise you can expect an 8 megapixel camera with face detect, LED flash and image stabilization.  Also included will be some sort of custom UI atop the Android OS – probably more panel stuff – as well as quad-band GSM connectivity, a 4-inch 800×400 touchscreen, WiFi, aGPS, Bluetooth 2.1, 3.5mm headphone jack and a microSD card slot.

As promised, AT&T posted the Sony Ericsson C905A for sale yesterday.  This is the carrier’s highest resolution camera phone to date and includes other features such as GPS, a music player, a full Web browser, 3G connectivity and a 2.4-inch 320×240 display.  In case you forgot it’s $179.99 after a 2-year contract signing and $50 mail-in-rebate.

Wow, it’s taken like forever for Sony Ericsson’s C905 to hit US shores (it’ll be the C905a), but now it appears that the 8 megapixel phone is finally here, well almost.  The rumorville says it will debut on the AT&T network on July 19th.  Price is still unknown but this does appear to be the carrier’s first 8 megapixel shooter.  I wonder if this version will include a 2GB microSD card?  Nonetheless, you’ll get a 2.4-inch scratch resistant screen, Xenon flash, face detect and a whole mess of other camera phone features.

Hurry, this deal is only go while supplies last.
