The Sony Ericsson LT28at, that is described as an Xperia “super phone”, may have a name according to a recent trademark filing with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
On December 13, Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB filed a trademark for “Xperia Ion”.
The goods and services covered under the application (Serial Number: 85493863) include nothing more than mobile phones, similar to its trademark filings for the Xperia Play and Xperia Arc.
Earlier this month a number of sites reported that Sony will likely unveil its new Xperia smartphones at CES 2012. CES 2012 is taking place in Las Vegas, from January 10-13, 2012. The Xperia Arc, one of the newest models in the Xperia line, was revealed at CES 2011.
