Sony is rolling out its flagship phone, the Sony Xperia T, with a bang. The phone carried by James Bond himself in the upcoming movie Skyfall got a new advertisement today that announces “the Bond phone has arrived.”
The Xperia T features a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, 1 GB of RAM, a 13-megapixel camera with LED flash and a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera. The phone runs Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich, but an update to Jelly Bean has been promised some time after launch.
The ad doesn't show the phone itself for more than a few seconds, but that isn't the point. The point is to show the lengths that Sony hopes people will go to get their hands on the new phone. Check out the full ad below, but first, a disclaimer: don't do anything you see in this video unless you are a trained professional. Even then, it's probably a bad idea.
The Sony Xperia T is currently available in the U.K., France and Germany, and will start to appear elsewhere in Europe in the near future. The phone is heading to AT&T in the U.S. under the moniker Sony Xperia TL, but no release date has been confirmed.
What's the craziest thing you would do to get your hands on a new phone you've been waiting for? Are you planning to get a Sony Xperia T? Have you already got one?

But ppl got nerve to talk about RT prices. Too much for an android tab.

Had it come out sooner I might have considered it. I finally went with a Nexus 10 in Mars and I am very happy with my choice.
Sony have shown quite interesting products of late but the must but they must start bringing them faster to market.

I am holding out for the HP Slatebook x2 now that that has been announced. I just wish it would come out sooner than August, but the Sony is clearly a rip off when you compare specs…
