'The bright 2.6-inch QVGA (320x240) display is large enough to make good use of the touchscreen functionality, and a stylus, tucked away on the top-left corner of the phone, is on hand to help with some of the smaller, larger-than-finger selections, of which there are plenty.'

'The Sony Ericsson Xperia X5 Pureness is a unique phone. '
'The exclusive Pureness concierge service package it comes with may also grab some attention from the well-heeled mobile buyer; the 12-month inclusive membership provides 24-hour access to a wide variety of lifestyle services, including bookings and reservations and a host of benefits to help the well-heeled mobile user's life run smoothly.
