A few photos of the forthcoming Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 have been leaked and while it isn’t exactly a pretty phone, it sure looks to be a capable one.

From what we can see from the picture, it is running Winmo 6.5, which is most definitely preferable to the SE’s vile proprietary OS. Other than that, it looks like nice and shiny but a little bit too square. Seriously, you could poke an eye out with those corners.

What is a selling point is that keyboard. While I have not laid hands upon one, the picture gives a real sense of a quality low-profile keyboard, which makes an enormous difference when banging out a quick email. Give me actual keys over a touchscreen any day.
