New Sony Ericsson Satio II pics

Snaps of the Sony Ericsson Kurara have popped up online with a few tentative specs.

The info comes from PhoneDB.com who brought us first news of the device last month.

Reportedly, the handset is internally codenamed Kurara and will come with an 8.1-megapixel camera and will be running the Symbian S60 OS.

Despite lower spec than the Satio the camera still seems to be the star on the Kurara, and as well as 8-megapixels, will offer up 720p HD video recording and autofocus too.

The report also suggests that the handset will feature a 3.5-inch AM-OLED touchscreen display, naturally, there's no official confirmation forthcoming of the Kurara, or what it's final name will be.

Forming part of the Sony Ericsson Entertainment Unlimited line, we expect the Kurara to nestle nicely next to the recently released Satio handset.

There's no word on when to expect a formal announcement of the device, but if you believe the rumours it's due to start shipping in the rather vague first half of next year.
