Certainly very slim, but also very different from the last "Ai" concept we saw

This would be the third time when rumors about Sony Ericsson's "Ai" appeared and the second time when we see 'leaked pictures' of what it is supposed to look like.

First off I am going to start by saying that the phone in these photos doesn't not look at all like the phone in the previous "AI leaked photo", which means that the actual Ai could look kind of like the phone in this photo or nothing like it. So keep in mind that this is just a rumor.

Secondly, the "Ai" was rumored to be 3G. Now, I don't really see where the second camera could be on this phone. And, although we've seen 3G's with only one camera before, it wouldn't be very Sony Ericsson like to have a 3G phone with a single camera.

So either this phone is not really the "Ai" or Sony Ericsson has dropped the idea of making it a 3G phone. Another weird detail would be that the keypad, apparently touch, shows up on the flip in one of the photos and under the flip in another.

Although I kind of doubt that anyone has gone through such an effort to Photoshop this, we have to consider this option as well, since the logo on the back and the Sony Ericsson tag on the front could be described as - at least- weird looking.

Other than that, the phone's camera appears to be a 3.2 megapixel one, and not a 2 megapixel one, as stated before, and the design of this mobile will either make you like it or hate it, with the very small joystick that could be very tough to handle and doesn't look that pretty either.

In fact, after so many rumors regarding this phone, most of us will desperately be awaiting the official announcement of the "Ai" just to see how it really looks.
