Sony Ericsson have announced two Android smartphones that will be added to their Xperia line of devices. These are the Xperia Mini and the Xperia Mini Pro which will be the successors to the Xperia X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro (Don't get confused). These compact smartphones should never be judged by how small they are because they really pack a punch! The difference between the Mini and the Mini Pro is that the Pro has a physical sliding full QWERTY keyboard compared to the Mini which is a full touch smartphone. Head over the break for the press release and the specs of these cuties.
