Xperia Pureness unboxed, performs for the camera (video)
As you are no doubt well aware, the launch date for the Xperia Pureness is looming. If you've been dying for a closer look, you're in luck: the fashion icons over at MobileBurn have got their hands on one and have been kind enough to make us a short film of the reveal. At first blush, the phone doesn't look any less impressive than it did in the shots and video we've seen before. There doesn't appear to be any hint of a keypad before the thing when shut off, although that obviously changes once it's powered on. As far as that transparent glass display goes, we can tell from here that it's not likely to be visible in direct (or even some indirect) sunlight -- but since you're a jet-setting nightclub habitue' who hasn't been outside in the daylight in four years that probably shouldn't bother you much. The UI is pretty much standard for an SE feature phone, and the battery is not removable. The price? Looks like it will run you a healthy £530 (about $875). Still interested? Peep the video in action after the break.

..yawn...
This could be the dumbest phone ever. It's difficult to see in normal lighting (without a black background) costs an arm and aleg and really brings nothing new to the table except for the ridiculous see through screen and no manual.....WTF? No manual?
No wonder Sony Ericsson is sh***ing the bed right now and hemorrhaging money. Their R&D people should have been canned and the idiot who approved the manufacturing of this phone should be drug out into the middle of the street and pelted with every one that has been built. What a waste and no wonder no one wants it on their network.

I think that it's funny that the only thing from that box that I would ever use is that Sweet $100 (or more, last time I checked) stereo bluetooth headset that sony sent along. And I think it's even funnier that the guy from the review "couldn't figure out how to use those headphones"!
