Xperia X2 Steps Up Its Special Effects For The Sequel

The current buzz regarding the Sony Ericsson Xperia is mostly related to the rumoured, Android-running Xperia X3. But what about the X2? Oh, well here’s what looks to be a video of its UI in action.

The Windows Mobile 6.5 skin is a bit choppy (but that’s to be expected in this preview build), though you should start watching around 2:30 for some of the more impressive animations in the clip, including some interesting tiling eye candy. But I’m not getting too excited. I mean, we’re talking an update to a phone that didn’t really impress us in the first place. And the monikers X2 and X3 remind me of the X-Men movie trilogy, which honestly can’t be helping. [via Engadget]
