Much like the Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray, the Xperia Mini Pro has landed at the doors of the FCC for approval. With a grant from the fine folks at Washington, expect a Q3 2011 release from this Android 2.3 device. With frequencies listed as 900/2100MHS, the Xperia Mini Pro will not have 3G capabilities unless Sony Ericsson releases a different variation for the US. Those frequencies do however give eventual European owners of the device 2G capabilities. Though the lack of 3G might seem a surprise, it really goes along with the original intent of the Xperia Mini Pro: to provide an entry-level Android smartphone. However, don’t think entry as lacking when it comes to the Mini Pro. As we previously discussed in detail, some highlights of the Xperia Mini Pro include:
- 3-inchMultitouch, scratch-resistant display
- Sony‘s exclusive Bravia Engine for smartphones
- 1GHz processor
- 720p HD video recording camera
- 5 megapixel photo camera
