The device promised by the dotcom age, which we’d use for everything from watching TV, reading books and making phone calls to browsing the web, working and playing games is now a clich√©, both technology vendors and consumers now realising we want different experiences from different tools.

Billed ‘the world’s first Facebook phone’, the easy and fast access to the relevant services after an initial log in is indeed impressive, but if you’re used to using them on your PC’s browser the tiny screen size will feel more than a little restrictive.

We were also pleasantly surprised by the quality and resolution of the images to come out of the camera, and the reason is because Sony Ericsson have put a serious, brand name device inside rather than a cheap add-on.
