Getting small with the mini and mini pro.
Xperia is Sony Ericsson's flagship Android family, and it's been pretty successful so far.
With these launches, the firm is flying in the face of the trend for ever bigger devices, and shrinking them down considerably. The main difference between the two is that Xperia mini pro includes a slide-out keyboard.
But the two minis are powerful enough. Both handsets are powered by a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon and run Gingerbread 2.3.
They also come with hi-res 'Reality Display' with HD video recording (720p).
And despite the small size, the updated UI allows up to 16 apps displayed on the home screen.

The big new pre-loaded one is Facebook inside Xperia, which makes the social network immediately accessible from the most used areas of the phone such as the picture gallery, music player, phonebook and calendar.
Steve Walker, Head of Marketing, Sony Ericsson said, "We wanted to provide consumers even greater choice across the Xperia range, while building on the success of the original mini series.
"These turbo-charged smartphones now contain even more power, enhanced functionality, a larger screen and premium features unique to Sony Ericsson."
