PCWorld: Sony Ericsson Shrinks Android With Two New Smartphones
Two more new touchscreen phones from Sony swell the ranks of smartphones running Google’s Android mobile operating system.
“Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications expanded its line of smartphones based on Google’s Android software platform on Sunday, adding two new touchscreen models: the Xperia X10 mini and mini pro.
As the name suggests, the size is what sets the phones apart from most other Android-based phones. Both models have a 2.55-inch capacitive touchscreen display with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels. The pro model adds a backlit QWERTY keyboard that slides out from beneath the display, making it bigger and heavier. It measures 90 x 52 x 17 millimeters and weighs 120 grams, compared to 83 x 50 x 16 millimeters and 88 grams for the the Xperia X10 mini.”
