On the right side camera key, volume and micro HDMI port, on the left side there is the power button and 3.5mm headset jack, on the upper side there is a Micro USB port. On the back side there are the following 8MP camera LED flash and loudspeaker. Xperia Pro model is a model of sliding. There is a full QWERTY keyboard when in the slide to the side.

We try to get into the screen, the screen uses LED-backlit LCD, capacitive touchscreen, 16 million colors with a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels measuring 3.7 inches. In addition to typing with sliding keyobard, users can also use the virtual keyboard on the screen. Using screen Scratch-resistant glass material, graphics powered by Sony's Mobile BRAVIA Engine and is supported by Timescape UI.



Like a look of Android 2.3 Gingerbread, perhaps not so much different view. But because it uses the Timescape UI, this is the distinguishing. Because it looks very interesting with a widget that is specially made for Sony Ericsson Xperia. Backed with a clear screen and Sony's Mobile BRAVIA Engine.

Sound with a headset after we test by listening to MP3 songs, plays video and sound when playing games, the sound produced was satisfactory. But try not to be maximized volume, because the treble sounds a little bit high when using the loudspeaker. But the sound from the headset does not disappoint.
