SONY XPERIA MINI FAST AND SMART

This is where Sony Ericsson Xperia mini to shine. This handset is designed to be stylish and compact, and it's safe to say that the goal has been achieved. We have an all black variant, but there are also all in white, and black with blue or pink back cover for fresh styling. While we find the Xperia mini pro (QWERTY-enabled variant of the mini) is rather plump, Xperia mini action that makes a little more tolerable for use in a pocket. In addition, the handset is the perfect size to carry in a handbag, considering the very compact dimensions.

Sony Ericsson has done an outstanding job with the upgrade Xperia mini so that it matches the current standard. Screen up from 2:55 "QVGA to 3 is much more bearable" HVGA goodness, while keeping the dimensions of the device in tact. The screen itself is pretty good in terms of color and perspective. Unfortunately, ambient light sensor can not be turned off, so you definitely lacking some flexibility in terms of brightness. Outdoors, you must protect your device with your hands, in order to get a readable display. Fortunately, plays well with HVGA resolution screen size, and thus the Sony Ericsson Xperia mini that delivers the fine details, although not Retina Display quality.

This screen is also blessed with a Sony Bravia Engine for enhanced picture and video, which is something that we do appreciate. Finally, while 3 inches of screen real estate is good enough for the tasks of everyday as simple as checking mail, hardcore smartphone users will have to look elsewhere and find a larger selection.
