Sony Ericsson announces Xperia X2


Sony Ericsson today unveiled the Xperia X2. The latest iteration features the familiar panels interface but also debuts SlideView, "which provides quick access to frequently used phone activities." According to Sony Ericsson official Press Release:

Sony Ericsson launches the Panel SDK in a drive to encourage developers to create content for the XPERIA™ X2. The eye-catching interface includes a new range of interactive Panels on the home screen offering business, fun and communication features. By providing unparalleled real estate and marketing visibility, the Panel interface makes the developer central to the user experience.

The Panel SDK includes a Panelizer which turns existing Flash, Java and Windows Mobile® applications into Panels for the XPERIA™ X2, and a native software development kit which allows developers to be the first to create panels for the Windows Mobile® 6.5 platform.

Like with the original X1, there actually are two versions of the X2, with the X2a the version with U.S.-compatible 3G bands. That said, there's no U.S. availability mentioned anywhere, and the X2a appears slated for Australia and New Zealand.

Specs are a little incomplete, but we'll start you off with a massive :
  • 8.1-megapixel camera with autofocus
  • image stabilization
  • geotagging
  • 16x digital zoom
  • flash
  • Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional
  • 3.2-inch 480x800 touchscreen (resistive, still, unfortunately)
  • There's quad-band EDGE and tri-band (850/900/1900) on the 3G side.
