Even Fujitsu has a Tegra 3, Ice Cream Sandwich prototype device at MWC

When events like MWC get under way, there is often too much for any site or team to ever see it all. Having attended CES twice now, I can easily see why you see the same stuff get posted multiple times, while the smart ones dig up the un-eventful. For instance, IntoMobile found a little nugget that wasn’t part of a huge press event. If you want people to see what you are up to in the mobile space, MWC is the only place to do it.

Fujitsu may not be synonymous with Android as a major player, at least not stateside. They do have a few tablets internationally that seem to be big hits among the business minded.  They did just so happen to have prototype device on display in Barcelona though. The device is still unofficially named at this point, but some say it is to be called the F12 Arc. The nifty little spec sheet they have hanging with it outlines some of the key features of the device

  • 13.1MP high sensitive (ISO25600) camera
  • 4.6-inch 720p super high-resolution screen
  • Tegra 3 1.4Ghz quad-core + 12 GPU
  • Waterproof and dust proof.
  • Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

There are a few oddities about the device though. In its current form there is no 3.5mm headphone jack. Suggesting additional accessories could be provided using Bluetooth. That would alleviate the use of our headphones and external speakers though, so that could be a drawback. It also uses three physical button on the front rather than the capacitive touch buttons we have grown accustomed too. The camera sounds great, and yes, it has a flash. With additional features like an extendable antennae for TV signal, puts this device as a Japan release only. It is a pretty interesting device though. Check out a few more photos and what IntoMobile thought about it.
