Sony ST26i official name to be Sony Xperia J

The Xperia ST26i first popped up more than two months ago, but we've heard little about it since. Well, now, thanks to the Indonesian communications regulatory body we get to know its official name. The certificate for the upcoming smartphone was spied on the website of Postel and it listed its name as Sony Xperia J ST26i.

The ST26i model name stands for a mid-range device and the specifications we've heard so far confirm this status. The Sony Xperia J is will reportedly be built around a 4" (480 x 854 pixels) display and a Qualcomm MSM7627A chipset, which features a single-core Scorpion CPU clocked at 1GHz.

The Xperia J is supposed to launch with Android 4.0.4 ICS, but we still don't know if it will ever get a 4.1 Jelly Bean update. We hope Sony mentions something about it whenever it gets round to actually announcing the phone. Sadly, we don't have any information on when said announcement might happen or when the Xperia J will actually hit the shelves.
