Next week, a new Xperia mobile phone will make its debut, and Sony Ericsson is already creating hype around it.

The company has posted on Facebook that there will be “interesting news” unveiled next week, though it did not offer specific info on what this was all about.

Today, however, some more “clues” on what to expect were provided via the social networking site, clearly suggesting that there will be a high-end smartphone set to make an official appearance at CES.

The handset will arrive on shelves with a dedicated camera button, a high-end photo snapper, and the ability to record videos as well.

Some of the previous reports on the matter suggested that the company might be set to launch a successor for last year’s Xperia arc during this year’s CES, and that it will call it Xperia arc HD.
