Panasonic LUMIX Phone 101P is arguably the best camera smartphone in the World [Japan only]

Like those two smartphones from Dell and Sharp are not enough, Japanese SoftBank is further beefing-up its portfolio with Panasonic’s LUMIX Phone 101P. As you can imagine, this baby is all about making great photos and videos, rocking a 13.2-megapixel camera sensor with “Mobile Venus Engine” along with what seems as Xenon flash. In addition, it also packs a 4-inch qHD (540×960 pixels) touchscreen, TI’s 1GHz dual-core OMAP4430 processor, HSPA+ (up to 21Mbps on the downlink) and Wi-Fi connectivity, and other “standard for a high-end smartphone” goodies like sensors, microSD slot, Bluetooth, etc. What’s more, we’re talking about an Android device with waterproof body making it super handy for taking occasional shots in the rain. Finally, the LUMIX Phone 101P will also come with few Japan-only perks like digital TV tuner, infrared connection and e-wallet to support cashless transactions.

It’s all cool, but how do you get one? We’ve no idea whether Panasonic will ever export this phone outside of Japan. And no, you’re not the only one wanting one… badly. ;(
