Sony Ericsson today announced two new feature phones that have touch screens and Xperia-like user interfaces. Shared features of the Mix Walkman and txt pro include 3-inch, scratch-resistant displays; quad-band GSM/EDGE, Bluetooth, FM, and Wi-Fi radios; 3.2 megapixel cameras with video capture; and support for 32GB memory cards.

Mix Walkman: The Mix is a music-focused handset that features a karaoke function that mutes the vocal track in songs, and also has a dedicated "Zappin" key that, when pressed, lets users preview the chorus of the next track. It has colored bands so users can customize the look of the Mix.
txt pro: This sideways slider has a QWERTY keyboard and a number of messaging features. It includes easy access to the user's top five contacts and their Facebook and Twitter feeds.

Both handsets are scheduled to be available in select markets starting in the third quarter.
