In a nutshell: The Sony Ericsson
X10 Mini is a half-size version of the original X10. It's an
ultra-compact smartphone running Android and with impressive
features such as a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and flash,
aGPS with Google Maps, a fast processor, support for 16GB of
memory and a good battery life. Connectivity excels with WiFi
and HSPA. But the small screen size presents a challenge.

The original Sony Ericsson
Xperia X10 is an amazing Android phone, but it does suffer from
being rather large. So a mini version has got to be a good thing. Hasn't
it? Let's take a closer look and see what the X10 Mini can do.
Well, the styling of the X10 Mini is exactly the same as its big brother,
including the three silver buttons below the screen. But it's a much
smaller handset and weighs in at a svelte 88g, making it very compact
and lightweight indeed. It's possibly the lightest and most compact
smartphone currently on the market. In fact, it's tiny even compared
to non-smartphones. When Sony Ericsson say Mini, they certainly mean
it!
But the small size comes with a price - a small screen. It's just 2.55
inches in size, making it perhaps the smallest touchscreen that we've
ever used. Oh dear, this doesn't help make the phone easy to use. Although
the screen has a decent resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, and is bright
and sharp, it's just physically too small to fit enough on the screen.
There isn't even enough room for a virtual QWERTY keyboard, but the
icons and buttons are big enough to press and the very responsive capacitive
screen certainly helps a lot. Sony Ericsson's interface screens help
too, such as Timescape which brings together Facebook updates, tweets,
texts and missed calls so you don't have to keep moving between apps.
The facebook and twitter apps work pretty well. The screen is laid out
logically, with icons in the four corners giving you one-touch access
to user-defined functions such as music, camera, contacts, etc. You
can easily customise the layout and add widgets to your screens, although
there isn't room for many. The combination of Android and Sony Ericsson's
customisations certainly make a lot out of the small screen real estate,
but we're left wanting more. You'll probably struggle even more on a
bright, sunny day. The small screen also tends to make the phone feel
a bit like a toy. Some users may also find it rather small to hold when
making phone calls. Still, this is the inevitable result of making the
device physically small, so you have to balance the advantages against
the disadvantages.
What else is in this super-compact smartphone? Well, there's a 5 megapixel
camera with autofocus and flash. The camera can record video at VGA
resolution with a video light, but there's no video calling. The X10
Mini includes an excellent media player, with a 3.5mm audio jack so
you can plug in your own headphones. There's also support for Bluetooth
stereo headphones. You can look up a song on Google or youtube with
a single click. An FM radio with RDS is included too. TrackID (find
out the name of a song) and PlayNow (download ringtones, etc) are available
too.
aGPS is here, with full support for Google Maps (including Street View)
and geo-tagging of photos. A demo version of WisePilot Turn-by-Turn
navigation software is included, although we wouldn't recommend the
X10 Mini for in-car navigation due to the small screen size.
The built-in memory of 128MB is small for a smartphone, but you can
add microSD memory cards of up to 16GB. A 2GB card is included in the
sales package.
Connectivity is good, with WiFi, Bluetooth, USB and a 3.5mm audio jack,
although Bluetooth file transfer is a challenge. The phone also offers
fast internet access over 3G with HSPA giving maximum download speeds
of 7.2 Mbps. The phone syncs with your PC, including syncing your email
with Microsoft® Exchange email server, although the Android system really
wants desperately to sync with Gmail.
Web browsing isn't awful, despite the small screen, although you'll
find yourself scrolling up and down and zooming in and out rather too
much for comfort. Zooming isn't that easy, as it involves clicking zoom
buttons, as there's no pinch-to-zoom capability. There's no Flash support
either, although on the positive side YouTube videos are fully supported
via a dedicated app.
Battery performance isn't too bad. The small screen size helps to conserve
juice, and you should get a couple of days' use between charges - better
than the HTC Desire we think. Be aware
though that the battery is not replaceable. The processor is a 600 MHz
Qualcomm CPU, which isn't the fastest available, but is certainly fast
enough for the screen size. You'll find that the X10 Mini responds eagerly
to your fingers.
We mentioned in our Xperia X10
review that Sony Ericsson have so far only released Android 1.6
on the Xperia phones. An upgrade to version 2.1 has now been made available.
Android is a powerful operating system and the number of useful apps
that are available to download free is starting to rival that of the
iPhone.
To sum up, the X10 Mini is a super-compact smartphone that gets 5 stars
for looks and "cute" appeal, and packs in plenty of high-spec
features. However, we found ourselves wishing that the device was actually
just a but bigger so it could fit in a larger display. It's a shame
that SE couldn't manage to release Android 2.1 at launch, and we do
feel that the phone's at the top limit of what we'd be prepared to pay.
Still, on upgrade it's free and if you're prepared to make the necessary
compromises in return for such a compact phone, the X10 Mini is a good
choice.
The new Xperia Mini is
a much improved version.

Been given X10 mini Xperia by my son for nothing but if I had to buy
this phone? Would not buy it personally because I don't use the Internet
nor a camera on a mobile phone. Find this phone difficult to use and
much prefer my Samsung Tocolite and also my Nokia C2-01 which are far
better for composing text messages and to phone a number. P.S. was given
this phone because it played up and my son then bought another phone
but not Xperia. But the problem resolved itself and I now have his phone
but don't like it and was given it for free. Ha! imagine if I had paid
good money for it?

I LOVE this phone, I have had it for 2 years and it has done me extremely
well. The screen does crash from time to time, the internet browser
is a little on the poor side, and the battery could be better, but I
just love how this phone operates, and how it feels, it is small, compact
yet has a a little weight to it, meaning that you know you have it.
It is also really powerful and well worth the money. Definitely one
to buy~

I have this phone for almost 2 years and it is great. I love it, it
has everything I need (except Flash Player). Easy to use, widgets are
making it so tidy, small and cute, quality calls, nice fast internet
and emails, everything as supposed to be. Battery life is short and
that can be only problem. Games are good, it can read pdf, doc...
I'm gonna try iPhone now, but I don't really want to leave my baby phone

Currently using this SE Xperia x10 Mini / Version 2.1 update
Just like any models there are some sort of bugs or short coming.
Camera section- Without Timer and without Picture Zoom.
Will be handy if the Picture Zoom is available.
Just to enlarge the JPEG file when reviewing what we have snapped.
Digital Camera Zoom will not be pessary and not a big issue.
Charging- The X10 mini actually frozen during AC charging.
Nothing will work at that time.
The x10 mini will be functioning normal after disconnected from the
AC charger.
The battery is ok for a mobilephone .Using it for mp3 songs will drain
it out really fast
Hopefully SE will be able provide update soon.

I have this phone and am eager to get a new one just because it is TOO
SLOW. It freezes all the time, when I do want to call for instance,
the dialing application doesn't open for ages, it is really unreliable
for that. If I were in an emergency and need to call, probably wouldn't
be able to.
Also touch responsiveness is really slow when on web pages, I guess
also because of the poor memory and processor.
Camera is great as in all sony ericsson phones, I suppose (the ones
I had, anyway) and video is quite good as well. BTW, my pictures are
much better than my husband's HTC desire HD mind you.
But really, the very old version of Android and its slow performance
is taking a toll on me. It was nice to get me started in the Android
world, but now it's time to move on. I want to get an Xperia Arc S.
(1.4 Ghz processor will have to perform better than the poor 0.6ghz
of the mini pro)

This defenitely makes my head spinning and my temper gone in an instant.
The touchscreen is crazy, you click an icon and it prompts you to other
icon you didn't click. It hangs up consequently and i mean as in out
of 10 it only works good at the rate of 1. It is really a good innovation
but the problem is that, the touchscreen thing is so sensitive that
even you haven't click it yet-- like 1 1/2 inches away from the screen
and it prompts u to some icon you haven't even think of selecting. This
phone is really good but then you can't use it if it goes like this
all of the time. I have to send it back, it would really make you give
up totally.

I hated this phone from day 1. Not intuitive or co-operative. All the
things that have been said. A 'smart' phone that makes you feel stupid.
Hard making calls, and internet when it felt like it. Strange version
of fb, GPS gave up (I bought one). Now packing it up after 16mths to
send back to Vodaphone in exchange for a Nokia E5. Don't want to spend
my life trying to figure out a phone.

This has to be the worst phone by far that I have ever had. Yes it looks
cute. Yes it's nice and small. Yes it's packed full of features. Yes
it's affordable. But don't be tempted, you'll be sorry. Maybe not the
day you get it or the day after that, or even a month after that, but
you will be sorry.
I chose the Xperia Mini because I like small phones and ended up being
plunged into a 2 year contract with Orange that I cannot get out of
no matter how hard I have tried.
Some of the issues I have experienced include (but aren't limited to):
1) Loss of calls. Sometimes I just cannot make calls even though my
signal strength is OK and the bloke next to me on the same network can.
I have been batted backwards and forwards between Carphone Warehouse
and Orange and have given up.
2) Random missed calls. I receive text messages saying that I have missed
a call from someone when the phone has never rung.
3) The user interface is slow to respond. This is frustrating when texting
as it doesn't appear to respond to several keystrokes and then just
suddenly catches up.
4) Outdated operating system. The phone isn't capable of running the
latest Android system, so you don't benefit from any updates. The version
I'm on is 2.1 which was released in January 2010.
5) Disastrous contact syncing. Contacts that I have had for years just
disappeared one day. It turns out that the culprit was the Sony Ericsson
sync system. In one case, it managed to consolidate my friend, his wife
and their daughter's numbers together so I now have no idea whose calling
and who I'm calling.
6) Insufficient space for apps. I don't use that many apps, but invariably
the phone only allows a handful before running out of space.
I could go on, but please, take my advice, DON'T BUY THIS PHONE! No-one
will take responsibility for the issues you'll face with it if you do.

You thinking of buying this? DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!! I had this for
a year and I thought that it was the best phone ever, does what I want
and acts like it's the best thing on earth. Please don't be fooled by
this phone, after a couple of months it will not charge AT ALL, on no
ones charger, you can't replace the battery as it's built in, and will
eventually disable your own charger which means you have to get another.
Then after 2 weeks it will start charging, don't be fooled as it will
do this again after some months, and on the 3rd time, it wont charge
no matter what you do. Take it for repairing but it won't do anything,
I tried to take it practically everywhere as I loved this phone to bits
but was disappointed when they said they can't do anything to make it
work again. You've been warned.

This phone was quite cool when I first got it but 10 months down the
line and even with downloading "Advanced Task Killer" and closing every
app that opens this phone needs charging every 3-4 hours! (Most of the
time I've only used it for 1-2texts and its been idle in my pocket)
Even with a charger at work, in the car and at home it doesn't hold.
I am in a contract and will have to buy a new phone to replace it as
the battery is built in so you can't just replace it. Stay well away
from this phone its a complete waste of money.

This device is a hell ! Ater one year of painful user experience, I
crashed it yesterday on the wall to be sure, I won't get angry again
with it. One of the must difficult stuff to accomplish with that device
is... to give a phone call : the screen turns off after few seconds,
so you can't access a vocal server until you shake your phone in the
air in order to make the virtual keyboard available again. You must
do so also to ... turns off the conversation... Contact synchronization
is a funny stuff : got your contacts from facebook ? Cannot enter a
phone number for them ! You must delete the contact and add it manually
just to add... its phone number. Controls the volume is awful (ring
too loud, text inaudible), navigate from screen to screen can turn you
mad and this phone is an advertising board for Sony or Google. If you
regrettably owns one today, throw it far away from your life. You have
to know, you will have a restricted access to your mobile and some apps
(stupid games, google spywares and son on) cannot be removed without
tricky root access. I could enumerate a big big list of how your Xperia
mini will make you sick. For your sanity, forget it.

I've had this phone for just over a year now and still haven't figured
out how to change the volume of a text notification. There are about
30 ways to change the ringer volume but none for text. Well none that
I've found. The camera is also diabolical. Easily the worst camera I've
ever had on any phone. You just can't keep the thing still. I have been
struggling to think of anything positive to say about this phone. I
have had Sony's before and they've always been ok. Except for that awful
charge point they used to have, but this phone is by far the worst.
Sony "Apps" are also left wanting. They think that things like ringtones
and wallpapers are apps. When you actually look to find an application
there are about 4, none of which I've bothered with.

it's also the niftiest thing I've ever owned. It's beautifully designed.
I have large hands and this little thing has never left them! It's a
gorgeous size, uses materials that make it feel premium and the Camera,
although not zoomable takes excellent photos. It is not however, for
buy it and go types. You cannot use it un-doctered. The very first thing
is to root it, then custom software (cyanogen cm7) to your specs. I
run Gingerbread on mine, no problem. Its touchscreen is silky smooth,
the display, crisp and techy. It's like a jaguar; when you fall in love
it is deeply and completely. You forgive it everything because of the
way it makes you feel. Problem is, you do alot of forgiving. There is
nothing else like it out there, SE has been listening and its evolution
the 'Mini' (out now!) has fixed the battery. If you want something to
play with, this is the one. If you don't like to fiddle look elsewhere.

This phone is the worst phone I have had in my life. Do not buy it as
you will be greatly disappointed. A man I spoke to in a mobile phone
shop had also got this and deeply regretted it within a week or so.
Buttons are tempremental it doesnt always end calls. The qwerty keyboard
keeps sticking and wont turn off numbers. The uploads that you keep
getting messages for do not make any difference to the way the phone
runs. I have given up with it now. Greatly dissapointed but I am in
a contract so have to buy another phone now to get out this mess. Do
not buy it as you will be dissapointed.

I've had this phone for 12 month now and I have to be honest its the
worst phone I have ever come across! When I first got it I was on a
buzz that I had a brand new phone that hardly anyone had, now I see
why no-one has them! For the first 3 months it was fine, battery life
was good and it was a very quick at responding to demands. Now I have
to charge it at least twice a day which is a pain, it is very slow and
crashes whenever I try to send a text, you have to download basic features
that the phone should come with anyway e.g. Bluetooth, you cant save
pictures that your friends have sent you in a message. I have been looking
at new phones for the past 6 month when my contract isn't due to end
until this time next year! Awful phone I wouldn't recommend it to any
one, very very disappointing.

Basically not a bad phone. it is a big improvement on my old Samsung

I hadn't heard the legend. I can take it off charge before I go to sleep
and it will have drained before I get up in the morning. I will try
the apps that are being recommended on here and see if it helps. I like
the size, the look and some of the features. it sometimes does weird
things like losing a widget off the start up screen but overall it is
not bad. If I could get the battery problem resolved I would be happy.

I've had this phone for about 8 months now, and while there are many
things I like about it, there's more that I dislike. Plus points: The
touch screen is very responsive, using Facebook is straightforward and
calls are reasonable quality. Minuses: This is supposed to be a smartphone,
yet it lacks many very basic functions that I would expect as standard
on a far lesser phone. Texting - is a bit of a pain, particularly with
words not already in the phone dictionary. Also, you can't save pictures
that someone sends you in a text, and you can't create groups for sending
text messages. When adding an appointment to the calendar, there are
very limited options for setting reminders. The camera is basic and
as others have said, the battery life isn't great although I would forgive
that if other functions were better. As some reviewers have said, you
can get various apps to do some of these tasks, however if I buy a "smart"
phone I expect this type of thing to be included as standard.

females rather then males for this phone as women do tend to have smaller

I've had this phone for 6 months, and it's a cracker. Noticed a lot
of comments complaining about lack of Bluetooth support. This has nothing
to do with the phone, it's because you're running Android 1.6. Either
download a 3rd party app from the market (for free!!), or even better,
upgrade to Android 2.1 (but remember to back up EVERYTHING first as
this will wipe the phone). Poor battery life? As many have pointed out,
an app like Advanced Task Killer will shut down unwanted processes,
and the power widget should also be used to switch off GPS, WIFI etc
whenever these features are not actually being used, and also to dim
the screen. I generally charge mine once every 2 days, and I play a
fair amount of angry birds as well as using WIFI fairly often, but with
really careful use a charge can last in excess of 3 days. As I say,
I've had the phone for 6 months, so these are real figures.

I upgraded my phone to Xperia Mini after a chat with the store assistant.

it would not play any music that I had transferred from my old trusty
W895 to be told that my new ' all singing all dancing ' android phone
would only play MP3 ! My daughter then advised me to download MEDIA
GO ( which was pre-installed on her Sony Ericsson Aino ) onto my PC
and rip all my music thru this and my problem would be sorted. This
did sort out this problem but i then discovered the battery was not
lasting a full day, the store manager told me there was a fault with
my phone and I got a new one. I also have to say the FM radio is poor
compared to my old W895 which only allows me to stream from the internet.
Over all a great looking phone but it has faults, but to be honest if
I had the choice again I wouldn't buy this phone. Sorry but Sony Ericsson
