Description
Sony Ericsson X10 too big, but the X10 mini too small? Say hello to the X8, which sits right between the two at a size thats just right. Just like the other Xperia handsets, the X8 run's Googles Android OS, with all the amazing services Google offer and the thousands of apps available to download.
On top of that Sony Ericsson have sprinkled the same magic that made the X10 range standout from the mass of other Android handets. You get the cool MediaScape app that looks at what your listening to and find your more songs and video by the artist, and the TimeScape app that untangles the mess of calls, texts, Tweets, FaceBook and emails that we get bombarded with.
For:
- Still compact
- Corner based UI works well
- Packs a lot of features for a small size
Against:
- No HD Video recording
- Camera is only 3.2 mega-pixel
- Onscreen keyboard is average
What we say:
“ The Sony Ericsson X8 is at the "just right" size, not too big and not too small. You get a larger and hi-resolution display over the X10 mini, but still manges to keep most of the compact size, so it doesn't make a dent in your pocket. ”
