Sony Ericsson Satio Mobile Phone - 12 Megapixel Camera

Sony Ericsson have decided to really show off with his one. Groundbreakingly amazing is what some have called this handset with an impressive 12 megapixel digital camera built-in. A 12MP camera on a mobile phone? What's the point? - Well, with that kind of resolution, you can take pictures big enough to go on a billboard poster (well nearly anyway).

After hearing about the Sony Ericsson Satio Mobile Phone's 12MP camera it immediately occurred to me that with this high resolution camera, there must come a requirement for an extremely large amount of memory. That's fine because bundled in the box with the Sony Ericsson Satio is an 8GB memory card.

So what else is in the box?
