MP3 ringtones can be utilised as ringtones so users can hear the song of their choice any time the phone rings. A handsfree speakerphone in included for convenience, and the audio jack can be used with earphones for listening to music on the go.
As with most new phones, the XPERIA X10 Mini Pro has a digital camera built in. This has 5 MP so it is capable of taking excellent quality photos. The task of taking decent images is made simple thanks to the inclusion of features such as autofocus and an LED flash. It also doubles up as an effective video camera which shoots in VGA quality at 30fps.
The Android user interface is navigated by the use of a touch screen. This measures 2.55 inches and utilises TFT capacitive touch screen technology. The display on this impressive screen is of good quality thanks to the pixel layout of 240x320 which displays up to 16M colours. An accelerometer is built in which is an auto rotate feature, allowing the screen to be viewed in both landscape and portrait.
Of course, the XPERIA X10 Mini Pro allows fast internet access in all but the most remote areas. This is initially thanks to 3G coverage where it is available via HSDPA & HSUPA. Wi-Fi internet provides a faster connection however, provided a wireless internet router is in the same vicinity. Bluetooth and USB both allow the phone to be connected to other phones or computers in order to carry out functions such as sharing music files.
Given its compact size and enviable spec list, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini Pro is a great choice for tech-savvy users, as well as those who prefer to enter text with a real keyboard.
