When Phones Were Fun: Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness (2009)
From Star Trek Discovery to Minority Report to The Expanse … if there’s one thing science fiction agrees on, it’s that our collective future will run on transparent displays. So imagine my surprise when I learned that a clear-screened cellphone was not only just an eBay away … but also, over ten years old!
The year is 2009. Sony and Ericsson are eight years into a strategic partnership that has produced some of the decade’s most distinctive devices – and to propel that reputation into the 2010s, the combined company has dreamed up the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness (a.k.a. the Sony Ericsson X5). It's a tiny phone with no camera, no GPS, no removable memory ... but it does pack one feature no other phone of its time does (and no other phone will offer for the next decade at least): a transparent display!
Join me for the latest installment of MrMobile's When Phones Were Fun, featuring the clear-screened Sony Xperia Pureness!
