Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini—also known as the E10i (international) or E10a (Americas)—is a

Xperia series. It is the second Sony Ericsson smartphone to run the Android operating system,[1] and at the time was the smallest Android handset ever made.[4]

The X10 Mini was first revealed on 14 February 2010.[5] Apart from the physical dimensions, the phone also differs feature-wise as compared to the X10. Text input is done via a virtual keypad on the Mini and a full QWERTY, QWERTZ, or AZERTY slide-out keyboard on the X10 Mini pro.

Not to be confused with Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini pro (U20i/U20a) 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 is the 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.

OS upgrade

The X10 Mini/Pro (as well as the X10) originally ran

Android 2.3
.

Officially, both the X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro can not be upgraded beyond Android 2.1, although unofficially, ports of

rooting
of the phone (which has warranty implications) and potentially flashing of a third-party kernel.
