3 have snapped up the Sony Ericsson Satio, a phone that packs a whopping 12 megapixel camera.

Not only that, but this top-end handset also has a full touch screen, a range of multimedia playback options, and full HTML internet browsing capabilities.

Yourserbase has a thorough set of video reviews of the handset. You can check out the first instalment here.

Elsewhere, Mobile Mentalism has posted a review starting with a crucial piece of detail:

“Before beginning this Sony Ericsson Satio review, we need to clear something up – Satio is pronounced Sah-tee-oh, apparently!�

Glad we’ve clarified that.

Moving beyond pronunciation the review goes on to claim that “…the stunning camera performance combined with the superb list of features makes the Satio the best camera phone in the world today�

So this handset would make a particularly snazzy stocking filler if you fancied spoiling a budding mobile photographer in your life, for example.

The Satio is available in 3 stores, online, or via their telesales team. Plans start at £30 a month for mix and match, and you can add on unlimited internet access for an extra fiver.

UPDATE: Thanks to @stephenwing for pointing out that our picture of the Satio was wrong – we’ve corrected it.
