Sony Ericsson Xperia pro review: Social Inc.

Sony Ericsson can sit back and call it a job done. The last of the new Xperias is on the shelves and the impressive lineup gives them plenty of reasons to look forward to the holiday season.

Four-row slide-out QWERTY keyboard ; Quad-band GSM /GPRS/EDGE support ; 3G with 7.2 Mbps HSDPA and 5.8 Mbps HSUPA ; 3.7" 16M-color capacitive LED-backlit LCD touchscreen of FWVGA resolution (480 x 854 pixels) with Sony Mobile BRAVIA engine ; Android OS...

Display has poor viewing angles ; No smart dialing ; microSD card slot is not hot-swappable ; Battery cover is a hassle to open ; Slider a bit wobbly ; Black case extremely prone to fingerprints

So, the company's squad of droid smartphones is now complete with a QWERTTY messenger. It's the kind of phone that can enjoy demand from both business users and social networking fans. The entire Xperia lineup was thoroughly refreshed and ready to...

Sony Xperia PRO Review

Thoughtful design ; Excellent cameras

Poor connectivity ; Buggy software ; Dim display

Sony tries to revolutionize mobile content creation with the Xperia PRO camera companion phone, but its astronomical price, wonky software, and subpar connectivity make it tough to recommend.

Sony Ericsson Xperia pro Review

Announced way back at MWC in February, the Sony Ericsson Xperia pro didn't arrive in the stores until the fall. It's one of the few phones with physical QWERTY keyboard that ship with Android Gingerbread onboard, and offers all the goodies associated...

Sony Xperia Pro review

The Sony Xperia Pro is definitely a work tool – not a personal phone

Undeniably useful multi-functions ; Gorgeous 4K OLED display ; Most stable 5G on any phone we've tested

Way overpriced as a personal phone ; No recording as an external monitor ; No overlays like focus peaking/zebra etc

The Sony Xperia Pro is one of the most unique camera phones we’ve tested, with its multi-function feature set. Costing an eye-watering $2,499 / £2,299 though, it’s incredibly difficult to justify, and would be a terrible buy as a personal smartphone....

Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro - Write Like a Pro

Sleek smartphones. PlayStation-certified Android devices. Sony Ericsson's Xperia smartphones are certainly quite varied. If you're wondering how the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro and its physical QWERTY keyboard fare, this review will shed some light.

Above average battery life ; Decent imaging quality from Exmor sensor ; Ease of use with 3.7-inch display

Stiff and flushed physical keys ; Odd placement of power and camera buttons

The thing about Android, is how manufacturers like Sony Ericsson can go full steam ahead with customizations. And that holds true for the Xperia Pro. Besides the usual Sony Ericsson user interface customization, the most identifiable being the...

Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro

The first thing that strikes you when you look at the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro is its beautiful 3.7" LED multi-touch screen. But it gets better! Hiding behind all that glitter is a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. A real...honest-to-goodness physical...

Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro Review

Good, but not great.

Good camera, Decent audio quality, Good Timescape UI

Chunky compared to other smartphones, Terrible viewing angles, microSD not hot swappable

The phone runs the 2.3.4 Gingerbread variant of the Android operating system which has a few updates such as 3D sweep panorama and T9 with swipe. It uses Sony’s Bravia engine to sharpen images and improve photo quality and it does a great job here when...
