Staying on its path to be the leading premium handset maker, Sony Ericsson announced the X10 Mini even prior to the release of the original Xperia X10. It is not surprising anyway that new phones are being announced quite frequently these days especially that the Mobile World Congress is happening in Spain. The X10 Mini brandishes its smaller profile but retained key features that users would want in a smartphone.
The most noticeable difference is the 2.5″ screen which came a lot from being 4″ on the X10. This is very significant considering that the device will be heavily dependent on a touch screen interface. Just think if texting on a 3.2″ is already hard for you, what more pain will the smaller screen bring? Although it uses an alphanumeric virtual keypad similar to a traditional phone, navigating the system would still be hard. Moreover, the smaller screen size would mean less viewing area for pictures and videos.
Anyhow, the X10 Mini still has good features and hardware to back the small profile. It is run by a Qualcomm MSM7227 600Mhz processor with 128mb internal memory. The operating system uses Android 1.6 with Timescape UI where all communication items can be seen such as emails, messages, Facebook updates, tweets, missed calls, etc so that you don’t have to open different applications just to view them. You can choose between connecting to the internet via WiFi or the fast 3G HSPA network. There is a 5megapixel camera, A-GPS, and FM radio in case you need it.
The main selling point of the X10 Mini is its size. Real world experience is yet to be tested.
I'm actually a big fan of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini. this phone so attractive with a variety of features. I really like the camera with 5MP resolution, A-GPS and its Wi-Fi. This phone is very useful for me who is a blogger and internet marketing. but in Indonesia the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini price is still too expensive. if the price has come down soon I will buy it so I have 2 phones
