According to rumours, the P5i might incorporate:

  • Slider keyboard
  • Symbian/UIQ 3.3 interface
  • Stylus and finger operated touchscreen
  • 5 megapixel camera
  • Built-in GPS
  • Opera Mobile 9 browser

Sony Ericsson keeps on changing between Windows Mobile and Symbian, but they keeping the P-series loyal to Symbian, while the upcoming Xperia X1 will feature Windows Mobile 6.1
