Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro black

After a manufacturer has made a super powerful, high-end phone, what is the next step? Well, with Sony Ericsson, their next step was to take their top-end smartphone, make a smaller version of it, and add a QWERTY keyboard, to make the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is a cut-down version of the first Xperia X10. It has a lower-speed (but still fast and

responsive) CPU, and a considerably smaller display, but that gives the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro two crucial features that a lot of users will see as definite advantages over the high-spec version. First, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is a lot smaller; to put it in perspective, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is, from the front, not as big as the screen on the original Xperia X10. It is consequently much better suited to tighter pockets or bags.

The second benefit is price. Since the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is drastically cut-down, as compared to the earlier incarnation, it also costs very much less.

And yet, in spite of the lower price, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro still packs in features. Because it has a 5 megapixel camera, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is perfect for snapping superb photos, and although the screen measures just 2.55 inches, it displays those photos beautifully. The hardware QWERTY keyboard is definitely a plus, as it makes typing out messages very easy.

One area where Google Android has always excelled is in the design of its user interface, and in this case, the interface is optimised to work better on the smaller screen. The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro uses a slightly different layout to other Android phones, in that the user interface is simplified, to make it easier to use on the smaller screen; consequently, the numerous homescreens have been replaced by a main front screen, which has customisable app shortcuts in the four corners of the display.

The onscreen keyboard in the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro has also been changed to an alphanumeric keypad, rather than forcing the user to try and type on a virtual QWERTY module. Predictive text ensures that the keypad accurately produces the correct text.

In conclusion, while the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro is small, it is still powerful, and capable. Despite being cut-down in size from its predecessor, it has lost nothing in the translation. The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro also ably proves that powerful, beautiful smartphones do not have to be huge.
