Sony Ericsson outs Xperia X10 mini and Xperia X10 mini pro

Sony Ericsson’s Xperia X10 mini and  the X10 mini pro are nearly identical with the exception of launch colors — the mini will ship in black, pearl white, lime, pink, red and silver, while the mini pro features just black and red — a minuscule size difference, and the pro packing a QWERTY keyboard. The X10 twins run Android 1.6 (though with the time to market gap we’ve come to expect from SE this could change) on a 600MHz Qualcomm MSM7227 and will ship in both North American and global 3G variants with quad-band EDGE, WiFi, Bluetooth, and a pack-in 2GB microSD card. As far as OS tweaks are concerned, Sony Ericsson’s Timescape is being touted as a major feature that enables all your communications with contacts to be accessed in one place making it simple to access to call history, Facebook, Twitter, messaging, and the like. Four-corner control also gets a mention and is basically user-customizable shortcut icons placed — not surprisingly — in each corner of the device’s 2.5-inch QVGA touchscreen display. Both phones’ launch dates are set for sometime in Q2 this year.

Sony Ericsson Vivaz Pro

MWC has now given us the Vivaz Pro, which adds a QWERTY keyboard with a touchscreen one. It is definitely is a better quality phone for taking pictures than the usual obligatory camera phone that comes with most cell phones with 8.2 megapixels.

It also features stay-in touch email, Twitter, Facebook, blogging, and chat. It has a 3.2 inch 16:9 wide touchscreen, you have HD resolution for YouTube via Wi-Fi. It also has a PlayNow, which gives immediate online access to applications, games, and music.

Sony Ericsson answers your nagging X10 questions, ‘newer version’ of Android will come

While we all continue to twiddle our thumbs in anticipation of the X10′s general availability, Dutch site Tweakers took some time out with Sony Ericsson’s Jacob Sten Harold de Kort to get a few pressing questions from the community answered. It’s quite a test — de Kort fielded over 80 questions in all — and there were a few big takeaways that should be of interest to anyone who’s got even glancing interest in putting this thing in their pocket in the next few months. First off, it’s still scheduled to launch with Android 1.6 Donut, but his words along with a post over on SE’s official Product Blog give us hope that we’ll be seeing 2.0, 2.1, or something even fresher down the road . 1.6 doesn’t support multitouch in the framework, and indeed, de Kort confirms that the X10 will be a unitouch device, though it’s not clear whether that could change with a newer firmware or if there’s a hardware issue involved.

Sony Ericsson Yari review

Make way Nintendo Wii and Project Natal – the Sony Ericsson Yari can play both motion-based games and camera-tracked gesture controlled games. A 5MP camera and GPS in an attractive package and of course great audio quality – we might have a winner on our hands.

What’s all this gesture gaming we’re going on about? Simple, well, sort of – Yari uses its secondary camera to track motion so that you can use your body to control the game, like the impressive Project Natal demos you might have seen (and if you haven’t, do – you’ll know joysticks are a thing of the past). The accelerometer also comes into play – the Bowling game puts a Wii in your pocket.

But the Sony Ericsson Yari is not just about games. Even though Sony Ericsson are done using the Cybershot and Walkman labels, Yari’s seems to have both types of genes. It packs a 5MP camera with auto-focus and the audio quality is great.

Vodafone UK getting Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 in April

Vodafone UK have announced that they will be offering Sony Ericsson’s first Android smartphone, the XPERIA X10, come April 2010.  The handset – which made its official debut back in November 2009 – has seen various suggested release dates, including one quickly-removed date on Sony Ericsson’s own site, but until now nothing official.

There’s plenty about the X10 to make it worth waiting for, though.  The Android handset has a 4-inch WVGA capacitive touchscreen together with UMTS/HSPA, WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS, along with an 8.1-megapixel camera.  Sony Ericsson have also loaded up their own UI and two new apps, Mediascape and Timescape, which aim to pull together local and online multimedia and social networking content.

Xperia X1 and Android 2.0.1 joined in unholy matrimony

Tired of waiting for the Xperia X10 for your first taste of Android and Sony Ericsson? Leave it to the gang at the XDA-developers forum to jump the gun. Last week marked the successful port of Android 2.0.1 (or Android 1.6, if you so choose) to the Xperia X1. No bluetooth, camera, or GPS — not yet, at any rate — but WiFI, GSM, resistive touchscreen, and all the other amenities should be functioning. Tweakers at heart can find all the necessary files and instructions via the source link, and as for the rest of us, there’s a video to live vicariously through after the break.

Xperia X10 officially headed to T-Mobile in Germany this April

Announced to the world in early November last year, the Xperia X10 has been Sony Ericsson’s paper flagship device for a good few months now, and unfortunately the latest official word seems to confirm that the wait will be even longer. NTT DoCoMo has already stated it’ll launch the handset in Japan this April, and T-Mobile has now also gone official with an April timeframe for the X10′s German arrival. Guess we can consider that February 10 “expected launch” in the UK dead and buried by this point. It’s all rather lackluster in our eyes — we’ve seen HTC produce the devastatingly versatile HD2 and even the Nexus One in the time it’s taken Sony Ericsson to iron out bugs in a UI we suspected was too ambitious from the start. Let’s hope the final product is worth the wait.
