Sony Ericsson have pretty much adopted Android in all of its premium smartphones for the last couple of years.

Well, that could all be about to change because new images have leaked of a Sony Ericsson smartphone thought to be running on the Windows Phone operating system.

Very little is known about the smartphone other than it's expected to run on Windows Phone Mango (7.5) and its thought to be a slider smartphone. It's appearance is very similar to the Xperia X10 Mini Pro , so we'd expect a mid-range specification.

The one thing making us apprehensive is that the branding still has the "Sony Ericsson" branding, which has now been discontinued since Sony bought out Ericsson. It's possible that this could be an old prototype , so we'll just have to wait and see.

We hope Sony Ericsson will launch a Windows smartphone and as soon as 3G hears anymore news we'll let you know.
