Hi mini users
I have xperia mini for few days and i wonder about poor flash playback. Xperia mini with latest firmware and flash 10.3, tested stock browser, dolphin browser and opera browser. When i try to play youtube content it can't handle even 480p in fullscreen mode? Sound is ok but movie is 2-5 fps (1 fps in 720p mode) WHY?
Older xperia x10i updated to android 2.3 can play even 720p movies smoothly! Xperia mini has lower resolution and faster processor so should be better.
Quadrant for mini is ~1700, for x10i is ~1200.

It might be a strange question, but why would you want to play youtube videos in browser with flash (which sucks balls anyway, but that's another story) when there's a perfectly good and capable youtube app on the phone already?

When i browse www pages there are many movies on them, not only on youtube, just want to see it in browser. If pages has many flash anims mini's pefrorm worse then x10i. But main reason of my question was why it can't handle play when it is faster then x10i?
