This yet-to-be-official new XPeria phone from Sony Ericsson is codenamed Rachel. Powered by the Android OS, the UI has been fully customized as shown in the video demo below.
Sony Ericsson dropped Windows Mobile from the original XPeria and went with the current favorite, Android.
According to GSMArena, the phone will be running the Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon platform (with speeds up to 1.0 GHz) and a dedicated graphics accelerator. It’s going to have a large 4-inch screen with a resolution in the vicinity of 800×480 pixels.

looks cool and expensive though…
yeah!!! this will surely burn our pockets!!!
hhmm, the satio’s not even out yet and now this rumor pops up. let’s hope it’s not vaporware.
If this is the real deal, it’ll give the iPhone a serious challenge.
Ahhhhh! This has been getting a lot of raves in the blogosphere. I am glad that I didn’t wait for the N97. As it is, I’m 50% close to ditching my E75. Thinking of waiting it out for the E72 OR getting an LG Arena OR getting an Iphone 3G (no S). But this one might push my plans back some more. I wonder though with the Chrome OS burning the wires, if Android will have future potential still.
Now that’s how handset makers can maximize Android… customize it to make it look and feel the way they want.
Yes,people are raving for this Android Phone.Its’high time now for Sony ericsson to make the official announcement.Pretty-nice looking fone, we’ ll wait for it.
