Sony Ericsson unveiled the Next-Generation Xperia mini andXperia mini pro, the latest additions to its Xperia family. Sony Ericsson introduced two powerful, versatile and compact smartphones in the xperia mini series. The Next Generation Xperia mini will be the world’s smallest HD video recording smartphone. The new Xperia mini pro compact smartphone comes with intuitive fast messaging.
These innovative smartphones come packed full of features, powered by a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, and run the latest platform of Google’s Android – Gingerbread 2.3. Beautifully designed, Xperia mini and Xperia mini pro both integrate best-in-class imaging and display technology from Sony, including Reality Display with Mobile BRAVIA Engine and HD video recording (720p).
The products offer a full multimedia entertainment experience. Xperia mini and Xperia mini pro enable access to over 150,000 apps on the Android Market and has a 3” scratch-resistant, multi-touch glass screen. The improved user interface allows up to 16 apps displayed on the home screen. Facebook inside Xperia, a feature just announced for the Xperia family, provides a unique social media integration.
Xperia mini pro brings the optimized slide-out keyboard with smart functionality first seen on the Xperia pro to a compact smartphone. A subtle but fast Type & Send functionality eliminates the need to open a dedicated app for each type of message, and Smart Keyboard triggers predictive messaging actions automatically when the user slides out the keyboard. Xperia mini pro also comes pre-loaded with Office Suite and McAfee antivirus software, letting consumers manage documents and e-mails instantly and securely while on the move.
Sony Ericsson also unveils a new integration, Facebook inside Xperia, which will be included in the new Xperia mini and mini pro and soon to be available across the wider Xperia range. Facebook inside Xperia integrates social connections throughout the phone, by making Facebook immediately accessible from the most used areas of the phone such as the picture gallery, music player, phonebook and calendar.It enables people to ‘like’, share and comment on Facebook more easily than ever before.
