The next Sony Ericsson XPERIA won’t be made by HTC

23 Dec, 2008
The next generation of Windows Mobile powered devices by Sony Ericsson presumably won't be HTC-made. Instead, Sony Ericsson will entrust their new smartphone production to a Taiwan-based...

I liked XPERIA. The phone is awesome. The kind of Battery backup it has with so many features is KEWL. I don't know whether the new XPERIA wud be equally fascinating or not. or may be more.

    I heard from a couple carriers that there were delays with the X1 launch plans due to a few bugs. A handset this complex will usually have several minor issues and doubt that was the reason for dumping HTC. If I had to speculate though, my guess would be that HTC could not reach the price point needed by SE to be competitive with this device in today's market.

      What a device this is for the first phone in the Xperia series, I'll be buying this when I can, and looking forward to any future Xperia handsets.

      Congrats to SE and HTC for a cool handset.

                        hahahaha...

                        couldnt stop laughing.

                        i dont understand how simple but powerfull comments made by SE+Nokia fan.

                        Btw, Im not an SE fan, but I'd give my respect to these taiwanese manufactures. they certainly have credibility to create super power phones in future.

                              Good decision by SE.. No more flagship handset made by SE main competitor like HTC. Xperia X1 is manufactured by HTC.. It's just not good for mouth to mouth marketing..

                                HTC is the best manufacturer and... i've got mixed feelings

                                HTC is strong enough, made devices for their own.
                                but... more devices, better choice. even with SE logo on the front.

                                on the other hand, let's give Mobinnova a chance. they wont be better, but equal... why not?

                                the most important is, there'll be more WM from SE. waiting for Nokia! ;)

                                  *Gasp* Do people EVEN READ headlines? It clearly says "The NEXT.. Xperia won't be made by HTC". It's not even talking about the current Xperia model!

                                        Everybody knows that X1 is made by HTC, but the article means that the NEXT XPERIA, maybe X2 or smth like that, WONT BE made by HTC.
