After the demo at the GDC 2011 Sony finally rolling out the the Xperia Pro and it is coming this October 2011. The Sony Xperia Pro is a Slider-QWERTY Android smartphone. It has a wider display at 3.7-inches if you compared to X10-mini. It was expected to roll out this July but it suffered from major delays probably due to the Japan Earthquake that really affected the electronics industry in that country.

Conclusion:
I’ve seen many QWERTY Slide Android phones but this one is indeed gorgeous. The specs is also very good specially its processor and storage capacity. Personally I love QWERTY keyboard because it is easy to type. After Galaxy S2 I think this is my second choice for Android phone.
