    The 3-inch phone will sell uncloked for a bit more than $300 and will include standard Android 1.6 characteristics and Sony Ericsson’s software enhancements,like an integrated social feed reader and Facebook app. Classed as an entertainment smartphone, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 targets price-conscious users searching for a stylish Android handset that doesn’t necessarily need to run the newest firmware. The custom interface is comparable to that of the Xperia X10 mini, such as customizable corners for one-touch access to your favourite apps.A brief glance at the Xperia X8 shows a compact handset that fits perfectly in the palm of one’s hand. Measuring just 99 x 54 x 15 mm and weighing in at 104 grams, it is narrower and lighter than iPhone 4. And even although it packs a 3-inch display with capacitive touchscreen, it provides the same 320×480 pixel resolution like the 3.5-inch display on the iPhone 3GS.
