Great news thanks to a recent article by Chris Ziegler over at mobile.engadget.com in relation to the much talked about and previously reported Sony Ericsson Xperia X8.

Although it doesn’t contain the hefty specifications as the Xperia X10 nor the X10 mini’s soft looks, but don’t despair if what you are after is a middle of the range Android device which is a little lighter on your pocket then look no further.

May I suggest that you keep yourself familiar with 02 in the UK where it has been claimed the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 is expected to launch this September. Although no pricing details are available yet we will of course update you as soon as we here anything further.

It does come with a 3.2 megapixel camera and will sell for $259 unsubsidized we would assume that the monthly plan may not be very much in order to get the device for free. Stay tuned for more information as we get it.
