Sony Ericsson X10 mini (E10i)

Buy the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 mini unlocked and with 12 months warranty from MobiCity.

By introducing mobile phones that are both compact and clever, Sony Ericsson is challenging the norm and defining a brand new offering that combines high specification features with a version of Sony Ericsson’s powerful UX platform specifically designed for smaller devices.

Sony Ericsson representatives said the designers didn't believe it would be possible to achieve the same thing on the small screens used by X10 mini and X10 mini pro, so their interface has somewhat been modified with customizable shortcuts placed in all four corners of the screen.

Behind this user interface modification lays the recognizable interface of Google's Android OS, which functions well even on such small screens.

Xperia™ X10 mini and X10 mini pro with slide out QWERTY keyboard offer an open and intuitive communication entertainment experience and build on the human curvature design philosophy debuted by the Sony Ericsson Xperia™ X10. Combining the Android platform with signature applications and a customisable UX platform, communication truly becomes entertainment with these new mobile phones. To enhance the experience, pick and choose from a multitude of applications at Android Market™ and co-create a mobile phone experience that is entirely unique. Users can go one step further and customise the home screen’s four corners and widgets to access the most needed applications for limitless possibilities.

The two sister mobile phones incorporate the signature application Sony Ericsson Timescape™ which brings all communication together in one place so users can see at a glance text messages, missed calls, and Facebook™ and Twitter updates, without having to open lots of different applications.

The interactive music player also uses the infinite button to pull together all music content from the music store and YouTube™ – a smart way to search for new tracks from a favourite artist.

Excellent little device. Recommend it to people wanting a small smartphone Review by Buzz Moody

Overall I am extremely impressed with the Sony Ericsson X10 Mini. I found the screen to be it’s major downside, but that’s just me personally. It may suit some people quite well. The speaker on it is absolutely terrific, I couldn’t stop listening to music through it. The whole User Interface is designed beautifully and makes use of every inch of the screen that’s available and it’s lightening fast!

I don’t recommend it for people who want the full web experience on their smart phone or for people who want to game. But I do recommend it for people who want a small device that can do everything a smart phone should do in a “fun size” form factor. (Posted on 18/07/10)

I've had my X10 mini for about a week now and I still gush whenever I use it. My only gripes are that the battery drains like nobody's business (I have to charge daily despite having 3G, WiFi and Bluetooth disabled for the most part) and it's a tad laggy when it switches to landscape - neither are major issues for me though.
