Photos: Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 packs Windows Mobile 6.5

Sony Ericsson's Xperia X2 made its official debut on Wednesday.

The successor to the Xperia X1, the X2 will run Windows Mobile 6.5, bringing new features such as Flash support in Internet Explorer Mobile and Microsoft's Windows Marketplace for Mobile app store. Sony Ericsson has also added a SlideView feature, which notifies users about missed calls or new messages and provides quick access to them.

The Xperia panel interface is still there, with 14 panels preloaded on the smart phone and 16 others available for download, including those for Skype and Google. You also get an 81mm (3.2-inch) WVGA touchscreen, a full Qwerty keyboard, an 8.1-megapixel camera, and TV out capabilities. It sports Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, as well as GPS.

Sony Ericsson hasn't revealed a specific release date or pricing for the X2, but said it will be available in select markets early in the fourth quarter. It will come in two colours: black and silver.
