Sony Ericsson XPERIA X2 arriving November
The much anticipated Sony Ericsson XPERIA X2 will be with us in less than a month.
It’s the first Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone with an 8 megapixel camera and WVGA video recording capabilities. It’s also the first device that features a QWERTY keyboard as well as such a high spec camera.
Measuring 110×54x16mm, it’s almost identical in size to the XPERIA X1. The 3.2 inch, high resolution, resistive touchscreen covers most of the X2’s front. It has am optical trackpad and a nice slide-and-tilt mechanism to reveal the QWERTY keyboard.
The XPERIA Panels interface has five sections, each one with many subsections, consisting of shortcuts to applications or content stored. XPERIA Panels can be configured just the way you want them. The X2 is predominantly a cameraphone, advanced camera features include an image stabilizer, smart contrast, touch focus and WVGA video recording at 30 frames per second. The music player is also very good and the video player supports XviD/DivX files. The XPERIA X2 has stereo Bluetooth and a 3.5mm audio jack along with a TV out port for viewing video and images on a big screen. Memory can be expanded to 16GB using a microSD card.
Professional users still find the XPERIA X2 useful too, Windows Mobile 6.5 includes Pocket Office, and with push email, HSDPA and Wi-Fi this is a seriously effective instrument for business and leisure.
