Leaked document shows Sony Xperia ion and its 12.1MP camera as a Rogers exclusive in Canada

The Sony Xperia ion represents a lot of firsts for the Japanese based electronics giant. It is the first handset produced by Sony after it bought out long time joint venture partner Ericsson.

 It is also the first Xperia branded phone to have a dual-core processor under the hood and is also Sony's first LTE enabled smartphone. A leaked internal document indicates that the Sony Xperia ion will be an exclusive for Canadian carrier Rogers.

The Sony Xperia ion has already been launched in the States via AT&T and while it was released with Android 2.3.7 in the U.S., the phone will have Android 4.0 installed out of the box in Canada.That obviously has to do with the July launch of the phone up north.

It can refresh our memory by telling about the wonderful 4.6 inch screen on the device with resolution of 720 x 128.It have a dual-core 1.5GHz processor with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of native storage. 

There is a 32GB capacity micro SD slot, but the piece de resistance is the 12.1MP camera on back that captures video at 1080p. There also is a front-facing 1.3MP shooter for self portraits and video chat. The device sports a 1900 mAh battery and offers LTE connectivity.
