Helsinki: Sony Ericsson unveiled its new X10 flagship phone on Tuesday; its first to run on Google's Android operating system, but plans to start to sell it only next year.

Loss-making Sony Ericsson, the world's fourth largest handset maker, has suffered since 2008 from a lack of attractive high-end cellphone models in its offering, and saw overall sales shrinking 45% from a year ago in the last quarter.

The X10 will have a 4.0-inch-wide capacitive touch screen; it uses Qualcomm's Snapdragon processor, and it comes with an 8.1-megapixel camera.
