Sitting snugly between the tiny X10 mini/pro series and the huge XPERIA X10, the X8 Shakira fills a gap in the mid-range that Sony Ericsson was sorely missing.
Going head-to-head with the HTC Wildfire, the XPERIA X8 runs a 3 inch HVGA capacitive touchscreen at 320*480 resolution, WiFi, GPS, 3.5mm audio jack, stereo Bluetooth, microSD support up to 16GB and a 3.2MP camera.
As with it's siblings in the XPERIA range the X8 operates a customised UI sitting atop Android 1.6, with an update to 2.1 just around the corner. The Shakira is powered by a 600 MHz processor and is sure to be another best seller from Sony Ericsson.

Great value Review by AJ
Very happy with the unit / still working out how it all works, but looking good (Posted on 3/11/10)

Great value mid range Android phone Review by JJ
Ideal for teenagers and those who want the flexibility of Android without needing the best (and most expensive) specifications. Has a great size as I found the X10 mini and mini pro too small and the X10 too big. (Posted on 25/09/10)
