Sony Ericsson is readying the release of a new high-end Android smartphone, one that leaked into the wild a few times before as the Sony Ericsson Nozomi, which is expected to sport the name of Xperia arc HD, and which can be seen in a leaked press photo today.

The mobile phone sports the model number LT26i and is expected to arrive on shelves with the new Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich platform on board, although it can be seen with the usual three Android buttons in the photo that emerged courtesy of XperiaBlog.

The rumored specifications list for this device includes a fast 1.5GHz dual-core processor, along with a large 4.3-inch HD display (720 x 1280 pixels), 1GB of RAM, and 32GB of ROM.

Moreover, it is expected to sport a 12-megapixel photo snapper when made available for purchase, along with a 1750mAh battery. Both white and black versions of the device are expected.
