Xperia Mini Pro review

There was a time, not too long ago, when having the smallest phone was a mark of prestige for handset manufacturers. Then HTC came along and convinced us that 4.3-inch smartphones are actually pretty useful, closely followed by Samsung and its current postulation that 4.5 inches might be even better. Sony Ericsson isn’t exactly resisting this trend toward ever-larger touchscreen slabs, having delivered the 4.2-inch Xperia Arc earlier this year, but it also has something to offer to lovers of pretty, little things: the Xperia Mini and Xperia Mini Pro.

The pair of Mini Android phones differ only in the fact that the Xperia Mini Pro is equipped with a slide-out keyboard, which goes a long way to justifying its rather ample thickness. Having spent the better part of two weeks using it as my regular phone, I can say that the keyboard is by far its biggest strength, but there’s plenty more here to explore: a 1GHz processor, a 5-megapixel camera with HD video capture, and all the joys of testing Android 2.3.3 on a frugal 480 x 320 screen resolution. Oh, and speaking of frugality, the Xperia Mini Pro can be had unlocked for a penny under £220 ($360) right now, which is less than half the cost of your typical Android smartphone. Click past the break to see if that represents real value for your money.

Hardware design

Of all the phones you’ve heard described as having a soap bar shape, the Mini Pro might be the one that adheres to that definition best. Its dimensions (92 x 53 x 18mm / 3.6 x 2.1 x 0.7 inches) seem to have come straight out of Tyler Durden’s guide to good soap making, though how suitable they are to a smartphone is debatable. In spite of being markedly narrower and shorter than its Android contemporaries, the Mini Pro’s bulkier derriere actually makes it less pocketable than the competition. Whereas an Incredible S or an Optimus Black might slip into the pockets of your tightest jeans, the Mini Pro demands quite a bit more room for comfort. Its 136-gram (4.8 ounces) weight is also a bit on the heavy side, meaning that you’ll rarely lapse into being unaware you have this phone somewhere about your body. That may be a good or a bad thing, depending on your perspective.
