Leaked pictures of the Nokia C6 have emerged revealing a classic Nokia smartphone with slide-out QWERTY keyboard. The C6 is the second phone in Nokia’s new C-Series range of phones, and looks very similar to existing Nokia keyboard phones such as the N97.

Fortunately, it should be a lot cheaper than the N97 was when it first came out, as the C-Series is not meant to be a range of high-end phones. Equally, though, it’s not going to be a particularly well-specified phone, which seems to be confirmed with the fact that the C6 will come with only 256MB of onboard RAM.

No other details are available yet, but we’ll be sure to report them when we have them.

Microsoft seem to be on a bit of a roll at the moment. Not content with rewriting their mobile OS and unleashing Windows Phone 7 Series on us, they’re also rumoured to be developing their own range of mobile phones.

Called Project Pink, the phones form part of a new range from Microsoft that comprises the Microsoft Pure, and, oddly, the Microsoft Turtle, each of which is a new smartphone based on its new mobile OS.

Today we learn that the phones will be released on Verizon in the US on April 20th, and across the UK and the rest of Europe on Vodafone shortly after.

But what is Microsoft Project Pink phone, and are the phones any good?

Read on after the jump for more details.

Today must surely be Android Day if the raft of news, leaks and announcements is anything to go by. Everything’s Android from every direction and seemingly every manufacturer!

First up is this, the gloriously named HTC Incredible. Nothing like boasting about your achievements, I guess, but does the Incredible live up to its name? Well, it’s got the 1GHz Snapdragon processor, a 3.7″ screen (possibly AMOLED) and the usual raft of features you’d expect from an Android machine.

Speaking of which, it’s Android 2.1, which, combined with HTC’s renowned Sense UI should certainly make the Incredible glorious if nothing else!

More leaked pics of the HTC Incredible after the jump.

LG are slowly but surely jumping on the Android bandwagon. Not only have they got a couple of Android handsets on the market now, but they’ve also got a few high-powered phones lined up for release later in the year as well.

Take this for example. It’s rumoured to be the LG Arena Max LU9400, which as well as featuring a 3.5″ touchscreen, GPS, WiFi and 5 megapixel camera, will also come with the legendary Snapdragon 1GHz processor.

Mmmm, tasty!

Boy, this is obviously the night for fugly phones! This is a leaked pic of the Sony Ericsson Kanna, which apparently will be announced at MWC 2010 next month.

Now, granted, these are just pics of the pre-production model, but even it smother couldn’t be proud of a design like that! Whether it’s the ugly looking keyboard or grotesque user interface (yep, Symbian S60 unfortunately!), it’s almost like Sony Ericsson put anti-designers to work designing this thing!

The specs are good, though, which they should be, andin many ways echo those of the newly-announced Vivaz.

More details after the jump.

Fresh from their recent success with Android smartphones, Motorola have found a renewed confidence and are working on fresh mobile phone designs that can only be described as, er, bold!

One such design in this, the Motorola Motosplit, which as its name suggests, contains a split keyboard sandwiching the main screen of the phone.

It’s an odd design and one that was tried (unsuccessfully) by Nokia some years ago with the Nokia 6820. The reason it never worked then is because:

After all the excitement of the Google Nexus One a couple of weeks ago, what better way for the mobilati to entertain ourselves than to indulge in some Nexus Two speculation?!

And right on cue, here we go – Photoshop mockups of what somebody thinks the Nexus Two could look like.

Actually, they’re mockups of the Motorola Shadow, another Motorola Android handset that’s set for release later this year. But rumours are suggesting Google might just co-opt it and rebrand it the Nexus Two.

Whatever it’s called, the phone looks to be a giant leap ahead of the Nexus One, which is no mean feat! Check out the details of the Motorola Shadow after the jump.

HTC will be releasing the HTC Espresso soon, possibly in time for MWC 2010 in Barcelona. The Espresso is rumoured to be the successor to the HTC Hero, featuring a QWERTY keyboard and an even better user interface.

This has led to some excitement in the mobile phone world, as HTC already make some cracking user interfaces (see the Hero and HTC HD2 for just osme examples), so the thought of a brand new one is mouth-watering!

Fortunately, we don’t need to wait! The Espresso’s user interface has already been leaked, the ROM containing it has found its way onto the Internet, and now here it sits, on a T-Mobile G1, looking for all the world like no other G1 has looked before!

More pictures of the HTC Espresso interface after the jump.

If you wondered why I called the HTC HD2 the best Windows Mobile phone in the world, take a look at these leaked pics of the Sony Ericsson Faith and shudder!

The Faith hasn’t even been announed yet – these are leaked pics after all – and so it’s a phone that will be much new than the HD2 when it’s released, yet already you feel like you’re looknig at a phone from 2005!

Blimey, Windows Mobile needs updating, and fast – and Sony Ericsson needs to stop working on ugly phones and ugly OSes like this!

Sony Ericsson are also absent from CES 2010, keeping their tinder dry for MWC no doubt, but again we’ve got another leaked photo, this time of the Sony Ericsson Robyn. The Robyn appears to be a cut-down Xperia X10 (and may eventually be called the X10 Mini), and so is another Android device featuring the same user interface as the X10, but with a smaller screen and probably no keyboard.
