Not much about this handset was revealed by Sony Ericsson at the launch, although at first glance, this handset is one helluva good looking mobile phone!
All we know for now are the dimensions: 104 x 43 x 10.5 mm and the weight is the modest 80g.
The handset features 1.9″ display with a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels, capable of showing up to 262K colors.
