Sony Ericsson Rachel Android UI is Amazing!
Okay, we are now officially paying attention to the new Sony Ericsson XPERIA ‘Rachel,’ check this amazing video demo really showing off the new customised user interface!
The underlying tech is unmistakably Android (the transitions and Google search box are dead giveaways), but it is gorgeous! The 3D ‘card’ interface, the threaded messaging, the slick integration of Facebook, images and Twitter updates, the…everything!
It is all so smooth, so intuitive, it looks like sci-fi mobile phone tech come to life. It is clearly a emulation from a computer simulating the UI, but with a super-fast Snapdragon chip doing the heavy lifting, the Rachel might be able to pull this off!
That said, the transition animations still seem swift enough to use on a daily basis. As long as they pull the images for contacts from Facebook a la the INQ1, the Rachael’s visual-driven interface will be nothing short of a revelation.
Combined with the form factor leaked earlier, this is now the Android phone to watch. Wow, the HTC Hero was so impressive a week ago…but we far prefer the cleaner and brighter interface or Rachel to the slightly busy ‘Sense’ UI.
