Being a motorcycle rider, the phone has been with me for a couple of road accidents. Being in my jeans, the phone still function to let me call the tow truck to come pick me up. Even all my coins in my pocket had the queen's face scrapped off clean due to the tarmac. Durability hat's off with two thumbs up.
Friendliness with sync with other phones, computers amazing. with a 4gb microSD and a usb wire, i can transfer files, movies, music an where anytime. charge my mobile at any computer. i sometimes dont even have to go home, just borrow a usb wire from workmates external hard drive to charge my mobile. transfer of data via bluetooth to any other device, unlike the BB, iphone or some nokia's there is no issue. search, connect, send/receive. User friendly, easy and quick, dont bother thinking. the phone thinks for you.
Overall, my experience with it has been a rollercoaster. the buttons are jammed, the touch pad is too sensitive now, the sliders is loose, slow and jams once in a while.
Ultimately, the X1 is an amazing phone. you would love to hate it and hate to love it. that is what true relationships are made off. Not a one sided affair.

I got the X1 in march 2009, and up until today I am still using the phone, and i have absolutely NO REGRETS with the phone. the build quality is superb, and despite me dropping the phone on just about any surface imaginable right from tarmac to gravel, the phone is still in one piece and hardly even scratched. the number of custom ROMs out there is also mind-boggling and im currently on WinMo 6.5 on a custom rom with HTC sense from a HTC HD and it performs brilliantly. truly this is one of the most capable phones of its time, and i surely do hope SE launch a comparable high quality replacement that runs on WinPhone 7.

There seems to be a lot of problems about cracks on the X1 at particular places that are blamed on a design defect.

ok. here's the thing. the xperia x1 is pretty good. i did a lot of research and dig a lot of reviews before getting one for myself. tat was like almost a month ago. where is it now? i sold it off within 2 weeks! why? have u guys check the product's build quality?! if u have the black version, then u'll know wat i'm talking about. the paint peels off within a week! n i didn't even take it out from my house! despite my extra care and attention to keeping it safe and scratch free, the paint issue really annoyed me. if i paid so much for the phone, i expect the build quality to be top notch. i m now checking out the htc touch pro2. hopefully it's better than my xperia experience.

Mel, 23 Jul 2009I currently have (and am still using) the Nokia 5300, and I... moreI also forgot to mention: Quad-Band [GSM] is a COMPLETE, DEFINITE, AND UNQUESTIONABLE MUST!!
by the way, I'm going to be using the new cellphone (whichever I am recommended to get) on AT&T [in the States], "prepay" as opposed to "contract". And, I'm going to make sure that I buy the darn cellphone UNLOCKED (like maybe from Amazon.com or some other place where I can find the cellphone chosen, unlocked).
Good call-quality, good cellphone-reception, I can hear the person on the other line well, the person on the other line can hear ME well (and also, "loud and clear", obviously).
Another thing I noticed: Look at Episode 12 (ie. "Knight To King's Pawn") of the new "Knight Rider [2008]" tv-show. Sarah Graiman, in the beginning of the episode, when she hangs up on Michael Knight's phone-call, she's using an XPERIA!!! (this IS NOT affecting my decision to buy one though, by the way)

I currently have (and am still using) the Nokia 5300, and I'm shopping for a possible replacement. I'm currently looking at these 3: Nokia N97, Nokia 5800 Xpress-Music, and the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 (my first cellphone was a "Ericsson GA 628" (this one: http://www.gsmarena.com/ericsson_ga_628-105.php ), and I really have no problem going back to [Sony] Ericsson cellphones, if really it turns out that the best of the 3 I'm currently looking at, is the XPERIA X1.
Yes, I know, "there's a new model of XPERIA coming out", "the Nokia N97's got 32GB of memory", and "the Nokia 5800 Xpress-Music came out before the N97, so, supposedly -- at least in gsmarena.com -- SOME (not all) of the kinks of the Symbian OS for touch-screen cellphones, have been worked out".
But I'm really looking for a cellphone that's:
1. user-friendly,
2. easy-to-use,
3. has durable battery life (I'm not big on having Bluetooth on 24-7, or always browsing the Internet, or any of those battery-draining activities. I use them when I'm in the mood and/or "urgent need" to use them, but otherwise, I just leave them off. Period.),
4. you can easily organize and manage your contacts
(in the 2 Nokia cellphones I've had so far -- the 5300 Xpress-Music and the 'Nokia 8210', this one> http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_8210-19.php -- I've always liked how I can very easily organize multiple phone-numbers, e-mail addresses, website addresses, street addresses, birthdays, nicknames, etc etc, and other things, into one contact, and all that information would just appear under ONE name, instead of HAVING EACH-PIECE of contact information appear "SEPARATELY" and/or like a "separate contact", like my Motorola V220 did; it made the darn address-book be WAY MORE CLUTTERED, and i DESPISED that!!)
5. Bluetooth, integrated camera, 3G, not 'complicated' to learn (and/or "too hard a learning-curve, that makes the cellphone just not be worth the hassle of learning how to use it" -- yes, I always read the manual on my cellphone though, by the way)
6. The Bluetooth capabilities DEFINITELY DO need to have the ability to transfer files from cellphone to cellphone (not just sending files, but also RECEIVING files), including (but not limited to): MP3 files (for ringtones, listening to music, etc), photos, video-clips, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. (Ahh, the magic of having Bluetooth on my Nokia 5300, especially when before that my cell-phone was the Motorola V220).
7. durable. "good quality" construction. "solid"-feeling. (i don't harass and/or "brutalize" my cellphone -- I do try to take good care of my things -- but I don't like for my cellphone to feel as if it was a 1-milimeter-thick piece of glass that could break at the slightest touch).
Any recommendations on which of these 3 cellphones to get? ie. Nokia 5800 Xpress-Music, Nokia N97, Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1?
(overall, in general, which is the best option??
and, then again: which is the best option, for ME???)
