Out of the box, the Xperia X8 is one of the smallest android handsets particularly alongside the complement of larger touch screen phones. The X8 feels light in the hand and weighs in at 104.0g. The diminutive size of the X8 initially makes you think that it must house a hidden keyboard, but this is not the case. At times, the phone can feel too small with its dimensions of 99.0 x 54.0 x 15.0 mm / 3.9 x 2.1 x 0.6 inches and a screen 320 x 480 pixels (HVGA). However, the phone functions admirably well with its 3″ capacitive touch screen. The screen clarity is easy on the eye and there are no problems with reading or viewing the icons or labels. I note that with the new update the screen clarity is improved.More after the break....
