As with most smartphones after a time the manufacturer introduces the same handset in different colours to spruce up their offering, there are of course exceptions to this rule such as the Apple iPhone who can’t seem to even push out a white iPhone 4.

Anyway, according to Florin over on Unwired View by way of Semcblog, Sony Ericsson is pushing out a couple more colours to an already existing device, namely the Sony Ericsson XPeria X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro.

Sony Ericsson used to do this quite a lot not so long ago, but anyway I digress; Sony Ericsson has now decided to deliver the XPeria X10 Mini in gold which makes it the 7th colour, the other 6 being silver, pearl white, pink, lime, red and of course black.

This leaves the Sony Ericsson Xperia X 10 Mini Pro with a dull pink colour, not sure why they just didn’t make them both gold. There’s apparently no word on just when Sony Ericsson will make both new colours available to the public other than the word being “soon.”
