Global mobile manufacturers may be moving from large to LARGER touchscreen smartphones but Sony Ericsson has not forgotten about the compact smartphone market. The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is a one of its kind with a compact 2.55 inch full screen display.
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is very much similar to its thinner brother, the Xperia X10 Mini. They both come with a Qualcomm 600mhz processor that operates on the Android OS. The original OS that comes with the Xperia X10 Mini Pro is Android 1.6 (Donut). However, it is upgradable to the recent Android 2.1 OS (Eclair). The newer Android OS features fancy upgrades such as HTML5 web browsing and an upgraded virtual keyboard for faster typing.
With the release of the Xperia X10 Mini Pro, a common question roamed the minds of interested buyers. Why should I get the Xperia X10 Mini when the Xperia X10 Mini Pro comes with an additional slide out keyboard? The slight difference in thickness of the two phones measures 2mm, a figure that doesn’t seem to make a difference.
As far as we are concerned, the QWERTY keyboard is a fantastic addition to the cell phone. Executives who are often on the go will be thankful, as the keys are well positioned and spaced, hence resulting in quick and efficient typing. Sony Ericsson probably noticed that virtual keyboards don’t work well with smaller screen cell phones.
The X10 Mini Pro interface comes with a “PlayNow” online store, a familiar Xperia gallery and Timescape for social network integration. In case you are not aware, PlayNow is Sony Ericsson’s mobile store that sells games, music and applications. Timescape serves the same purpose as the HTC’s FriendStream – It gathers updates from your friends in social networks and displays them on a timeline. You will also be able to link your address book with social network profiles.
Aside from the attractive interface, the Xperia X10 Mini Pro comes with a 5 megapixel camera to satisfy your photography needs. The camera snaps high-res photos and includes useful features such as video recording, LED flash and camera modes. Music lovers will also stand to benefit from the Sony Ericsson handsfree kit as it isolates noise to bring you crisp music and solid bass.
The most common worry about the Xperia X10 Mini Pro is usually related to its smaller touchscreen. Despite a lack of virtual real estate, Sony Ericsson had successfully optimized the interface to accommodate space restrictions. This means that you will not experience day-to-day frustrations on the compact smartphone. Ultimately, the main problem that lies with the virtual keyboard is tactfully solved with the slide out QWERTY keyboard. That leaves us with one disadvantage – the lower resolution of the screen causes incompatibility issues with a few Android applications.
Should you be looking for a compact and affordable smartphone that is great in handling multimedia, pick up the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro. You’ll love this friendly and intuitive mobile companion!
