Sony Ericsson had quite the lineup of android mobile phones last month at the Mobile World Congress. The Japanese Swedish joint venture showed off a familiar handset and a couple of new ones that we certainly did not expect. All of the SE phones are expected to be on store shelves by mid 2010.
Vodafone UK and Orange Mobile UK have both confirmed that they will be offering the XPERIA X10 to their customers when the device launches next April. The phone is SE’s very first attempt at the Android platform and they have put in some pretty high end hardware to make the phone all the more enticing.
The 1GHz Snapdragon processor promises a fast and smooth phone operation with little to no slowdowns. The 4 inch capacitive touch screen delivers high quality images with its 480 x 854 pixels of resolution and the 8 mega pixel camera comes with LED flash, autofocus, geo-tagging, face and smile detection as well as WVGA video recording at 30FPS. Orange Mobile will be offering an exclusive white version of the phone.
The X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro are coming to online retailer eXpansys by May 24. No word yet if eXpansys will be getting an exclusive hold of the phones but so far, they are the only ones to confirm. Prices for the devices are as follows: £300 for the Mini and £340 for the Mini Pro.
The Mini and the Mini pro both share the same specs –Qualcomm MSM7227 600MHZ processors, 5 MP cameras and 2.55 inch capacitive touch screens. The Mini Pro comes with a physical slide out keyboard.
Aside from these phones, SE will also be releasing two Symbian devices –the Vivaz and the Vivaz Pro as well as a Greenheart WinMo device, the SE Aspen.
