Mobile phone buyers in India will soon be able to pick up the dual core Sony Xperia P handset in their country as Sony plan to release the Xperia P in India at the end of May.

The Xperia P is actually already available in India to preorder from e-tailer Infibeam and is priced at 25,500 Indian Rupee, the equivalent of $469 US Dollars on their website. The black model is the only colour available currently, for this retailer at least.

Specifications of the Xperia P include the 1GHz dual-core processor, a 4 inch display and an 8MP camera. This handset also comes with 16GB built in storage however, it is one of the few Xperia handsets that does not offer expandable memory support ie there is no microSD slot and no way of increasing storage on the Xperia P.

Sony are releasing the handset into the Indian market with 2.3 Android preinstalled and are suggesting that Android 4.0, or Ice Cream Sandwich will arrive for the Xperia P in June in India.

While O2 UK may be struggling to get the last update out for the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, Sony Ericsson have released another update for the handset. This time it comes in the form of “R2BA026″. The update has been confirmed for the UK and India so far. The update also brings the baseband up to 1.1.31.

There isn’t a changelog from the company this time but, users are reporting Timescape and Mediascape to have been improved and provide a better experience in terms of performance. This update was certified on July 12th but, it seems we may see another update roll out soon, with R2BA028 being certified on July 21st, so the update momentum is set to continue. Lets hope the carriers can keep up with the updates.

While America won’t see Sony Ericsson’s Xperia X1 until November 29th, the highly anticipated handset has made it’s way to India and has seen it’s release there. For mobile makers, India has the third most important market and they’ve been targeting the high end market in India for a while so it’s sure to be a hit there.

The phone is retailing for 45500 rupees which converts to $916 (via XE.com), making it a fair amount more than the US X1.
