The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini (E10i) is a smartphone by Sony Ericsson in the Xperia series. It is the second Sony Ericsson smartphone to run the Android operating system^[2] and also the smallest Android handset to date. It originally ran on the Android 1.6 operating system, but recent software updates have upgraded this to Android OS 2.1.
The X10 Mini was first revealed on 14 February 2010.^[1] Apart from the physical dimensions, the phone also differs feature-wise as compared to the X10. Text input is done via a virtual keypad and not a Qwerty keyboard like on the Xperia X10. It comes with a 5MP camera, differing to the X10's 8MP. It also comes with a T9 dictionary which makes it easy to use the keypad. Also, there are tabs for easily accessing symbols and numbers.^[4]

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro (U20i) is an upgrade to the X10 Mini with many of the internal specifications being identical. The major differences between the original X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro are a slide-out full QWERTY Keyboard, a replaceable battery and the Pro having slightly larger dimensions (3.5 × 2.0 × 0.7 inches opposed to 3.3 × 2.0 × 0.6 inches).
The X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro are designed to look similar and share functionality with the larger Xperia X10, but are internally very different devices. Both handhelds lack Sony Ericsson's "Mediascape" media-management software, but include "Timescape" as well as the proprietary "Rachael" UI.
The X10 Mini Pro (as well as the X10 and X10 Mini) runs on Android 1.6, with an update to 2.1 being rolled out from Sunday 31st October 2010, to Tuesday 30th November 2010. The updated Xperia Mini Pro is more responsive and faster when compared to older Android version 1.6.
