    It's pretty clear that SE have ruined their reputation and caused bad feeling among many consumers. With so many broken promises, it's no wonder that people have become so cynical regarding SE products.

    The X10 had a great spec and by looking at the spec alone, I'm sure many people were drooling over it and there were shouts of "can't wait til this comes out!" and "this will bring SE back to the top!" but due to poor execution of launching and supporting their products, tehy let down their customers and themselves.

    Still, it's surprising that there are still "fanboys" out there who will sing SE praises even though they've been let down so much.

      Who cares if it will have 12mp camera and full hd recording?As usuall it will be released 6-7 months after it's anouncement and it will never get update of the latest android version, not to mention the lag of multitasking.Just look the ''flagship'' X10. Os 1.6 when others had 2.1 and now has 2.1 when others have 2.2 and they are almost ready for 2.3 or 3.0.All timne clasic SE.

        Anonymous, 11 Nov 2010SE seems to specalize in models that sell less than 100,000... more"The Good 4.3 Screen

        The Bad
        1) No slider qwerty key pad
        2) no dual sim
        3) no stylus input also"

        That comment is nonsensical because:
        - If a 4.3" screen is listed as one of your good points, then you can't have a slider keyboard with that too otherwise the phone would be HUGE
        - Dual SIM? Yeh right! How many people require dual sim? This is a small niche in the market and no major manufacturer is releasing flagship phones to cater for just a small market
        - You said you need a stylus for drawing, art etc.....who draws and produces art on their phone???!!!!! The screen wouldn't be able to capture the strokes perfectly, which is something that would greatly irritate artists. Strange idea indeed!

              Why do they to put huge screens? What's the point? 3'7-4'0 is already adequate.

                            Anonymous, 11 Nov 2010no stylus input is the disadvantages? we don't need stylus ... moreIt is not the screen technology that is important ... the funcationality that is needeed for drawing ... art etc...
                            it is like questioning why do you need a phone and internet access in the same device... wake up to possibilities..

                                CooL! Finally Sony Ericsson is catching up in the competition. The best camera-phone manufacturer in the world is now catching up with Multi-touch, screen and software. I think this phone is going to be the best Android package in the market once released. Add the hardware specs and the software, with the imaging (12 MP with 1080p recording) and music capabilities of this phone, and the result is:

                                Xperia X12 = Anzu = Best Android phone.

                                I hope this al least for now...

                                    If you want a device with a good keyboard you should go with the x10 mini pro, and if you want a great device with a lot of potential than the original x10 is a great choice.

                                    I think the X2 is more of a business phone than a multimedia choice. So if you want a very good device for everything including multimedia capabilities than you should get your self an android phone.

                                      SE should mass market this baby before the 2nd quarter of 2011..

                                      BTW,secondary videocall camera should be a must in every android phone..

                                      WM7 are so ugly..
