Android Gingerbread Operating System
The Xperia Mini runs the Android 2.3 operating system (dubbed Gingerbread)--the fastest version of Android available for smartphones yet. It features a cleaner, more refined interface with new icons, improved top notification bar, and more intuitive navigation. Multitasking in Gingerbread allows you the ability to run more than one app at a time. If you're playing a game, you can easily switch to an incoming e-mail and then switch back to the game without losing your place. And like the previous version of Android ("Froyo"), Gingerbread provides support for Adobe Flash Player 10.1 for access to the full Web. A new onscreen keyboard makes it easier to type thanks to additional spacing between the keys and larger font sizes. And the more you use the keyboard, the easier typing will be as the enhanced suggest feature records previous input history to make better suggestions. The Xperia Mini also brings one-touch access to the popular Google mobile services you use every day. It also provides easy access to both personal and corporate e-mail, calendars, and contacts supported by Exchange Server and Gmail. And through Android Market, you'll get access to thousands of useful applications, widgets, and fun games to download and install on your phone, with many more apps being added every day. | Google Integration

This Unlocked Cell Phones give to us some advantages, like this :
1. A full-featured phone in the palm of your hand!
I have always been a fan of Sony Ericsson phones; I had one before the smartphone boom and it was flawless. My carrier (AT&T) never carries their good phones. Although I'm tech savvy and love gadgets, I procrastinated joining the smartphone movement simply because I didn't want to have to carry around such a large phone. One day I finally broke down and got an Android and loved it! However after a year of use I finally had enough of carrying that big thing around. I have an Android tablet when I want a bigger screen. So I looked at the AT&T store I found that the phones are just getting bigger and bigger! That's so American of us. After much searching, I found this beauty. Thank you Sony Ericsson! It has everything the big phones have but in a tiny package! It's smaller than I could imagine and I giggled for quite some time after unpacking it because it's just so cute!
SIZE: Fits in the palm; can do just about everything one-handed with ease and most importantly, fits in...
2. Small and big at the same time, the perfect balance for an Android smartphone!!!
I am very happy with the purchase. The autonomy of the battery is about two days with normal use, and using a program to check the battery can last a little more, if the use is intensive. Definitely the Android operating system is different. The device itself is very practical, easy to use and discreet, is not noticeable to the eye as the giant present smartphones.
The photographs are of good quality, sound is above average, and the integration with my email accounts and social networking is perfect. Actually online.

Awesome
Good solid phone that works well. Android gives lots of options. Form factor is great. Sony update the software aswell so it stays current. Works with AT&T if you have the St 15a rather than the St 15i (international) for which data is slow.
