A portion of Sony Ericssons TimeScape user interface was all that was needed for this adorable little handset; it integrates your social networks and other communications into one easy to access overview; status updates, tweets, e-mails, messages and calls are all logged and placed in sequential order, this means you only need one application to check out all of your communications with contacts. The intuitive overlay also lets you multi task with out any major effect to the phones general performance, you can browse the web while messaging friends or play games while listening to your favourite radio station.

The WebKit browser has been slightly altered to fit on the X10 Mini, it supports standard controls for pan and zoom functions and page bookmarking; there is also support for basic graphics and video.
