Judging by the pictures on Mobile Review, the Kurara and the Xperia X10 will be on a level as far as user interfaces go.  There is a pre-installed Facebook application on the phone as also has Twitter capabilities.

Want to be able to use your phone to record high definition video?  With the Kurara’s 8 mega pixel camera you will be able to do just that.  If you are tired of having to deal with proprietary accessories, you will not have to worry about that any more.  It looks like Sony Ericsson is finally moving away from that.  The Kurara is equipped with both a universal micro USB port and a 3.5mm headphone jack so that you will not have to deal with memory cards and can use practically any headphones you like.

The Sony Ericsson Kurara does not however have an AMOLED screen and the lack thereof means that it will not be able to compete with the imaging possibilities of other smart phones on the market like the Samsung i890 HD.  It is a great phone to use though.  Although Sony Ericsson has declined to comment on the leaked information regarding the Kurara, it has an estimated street date of February 2010.

In short, the Sony Ericsson has incorporated some innovative technology into the new Kurara.  While they did implement a larger mega pixel digital camera, they shied away from the screen with the resolution to really appreciate it.
