Sony Ericsson Xperia ray
The Sony Ericsson Xperia ray (ST18i) is an Android smartphone from Sony Ericsson. It contains similar hardware to other 2011 Xperia phones (1 GHz MSM8255, 854×480 FWVGA screen, 8.1mp camera, etc.) in a considerably smaller package. As a result, the display has a higher pixel density compared to other 2011 Xperia phones. It has an LED flash for the camera.[2]
