Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini finally shows itself
The Unlocked Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini has finally come out of the factories and we managed to give this phone a good test run and have got a pretty good idea of how this phone will be performing and its pros and cons. One major problem that the users will surely face when they are operating this phone is that there is no actual physical keyboard on this one which will create some amount of discomfort for the more used to BlackBerry users who are not really accustomed to using a virtual key pad and we feel that this is one of the major downers of this phone and will surely cause some of the probable buyers to think twice. The multitap keypad which is there on this one is pretty slow and pales in comparison with the predictive one which is pretty fast. In terms of typing, this is probably one of the only positives as typing and text manipulation is pretty good as one can switch between various kinds of keypads and whatever predictions are there, are quite decent.
The cursor motion on this one is good and one long press will actually get you to a pop up view of the entire row and the position of the pointer will be there right above your finger which makes moving the pointer on the screen a breeze. However be careful with the long press on the touch pad as if you happen to do that then you will bring up the Edit text menu. This phone is slightly wider than the Unlocked Mini Pro and therefore you will get more room to go through the net and other multimedia functions. The 5 megapixel camera on this one is just about okay for putting up pictures on Facebook. We will have more details on this phone pretty soon so stay tuned.
