Expansys, the online retailer and importer of phones, has confirmed the existence of the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X3, the third model in the XPERIA family. The X2, like its predecessor the X1, will be a Windows Mobile handset.

The device’s dual-band 3G doesn’t look compatible for North America, but the 8-megapixel autofocus camera with flash, face detection, and image stabilizer sounds great for a smartphone. Sony Ericsson, how about releasing a global version with USA 3G intact?
