Sony Ericsson Xperia ray preview: First look

14 July 2011
Big is in with Android phones but the Xperia ray is eager to prove that petite smartphones have a charm of their own. All the horsepower of the Arc in a body that's a centimeter shorter both ways - think a premium saloon turned roadster...

        This is almost like a successor to the Nokia X6: understated design, small footprint and high retail price - looks the part too. Should the price becomes reasonable, it'll do a better job standing out in a sea of 4-inch-dual-core-superphones.

            Sho, 15 Jul 2011I think this will replace my C510 once the price drops down... moreNo, the sides of the phone are made of aluminium.

              The iPhone doesn't make any rules, the company has the right to the phone with the screen size they want and the user that know if it's good enough or not.

                  I think this will replace my C510 once the price drops down a bit. :)
                  Anyway, I'm not sure but wasn't this phone supposed to have an aluminum back cover?
