      DESIGN:
      Extremely good construction with very fine materials. Clever combination of metal and plastic in the right place (they say aluminum, specs say steel). The slider mechanism glides like “Soft butter”. Screen resolution only found on Touch HD and Toshiba Portege. Razor-sharp burn display. Keyboard keys somewhat slippery, but the size of the keys and the arrangement is very good for writing. Keyboard illumination is very bright.
      CAMERA
      3.2 Mpx is average but is the best of other 3.2 mpx cameras. Pictures are sharp and colors are intense. Selective focus sharpen the objects and diffuse the background in “almost artistic blur”. True full VGA resolution at 30 frames/s completely smooth and without streaks.The media gallery slides as smooth and fast as the iPhone.
      MENUS and OPERATION.
      Most applications are quick and smooth to respond. Switching between applications is faster than Diamond and Pro. Panels can create personalized environments. More Panels can be downloaded or develop. Some Panels durig certain operations are sluggish. Maybe an updated ROM will improve them.
      VOICE QUALITY
      Is OK but much more pleasant than the shriek frequency of other models. Reception is excellent. No dropouts.
      BATTERY
      The strongest among touch-phones. Using various functions it may last up to two days. Talk time 6 hours. In GSM even more. Casual user can last a whole week.
      CONCLUSION
      Impressive with many superlatives. Very responsive highest resolution touch screen at par with iphone and better than all the other competitors. Good camera with many features. Battery ensure long use. Panels not yet mature but updates will help. Lack of autorotation. The Sony-Ericcson Xperia X1 without a doubt is a new reference by which other must be measured.


      XPERIA is the BEST!!!

        Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970I do not need a job!

        Thanks for the advice :)

        Most of the stuff I write comes from the news - for example GSMArena News.

        Te rest is just reported here.

        The finally, very minimal amount is my own opinion.

        This is opinion forum, you do not like it - do not read it!

        But, as I have said most is factual - from the news.

        How you feel about the vulgarity, obscenity?
        Are you used to it?
        No complaints?

        Yo complain about the published news but nothing about .... - very classy ? :))))
        Keep up the good work! ;)

          Geddo, 21 Dec 2008Men , I will buy windows mobile next week . but I can not c... moreOn this forum most likely you get the recommendation of X1 - X1 forum :)

          You visit other forum ....

          Forums are, as you can see :) flooded by post of fans and reps.

          The question is:
          Are you ready for an X1? :)))

          So let me quote a classic :)

          ˝Yes nokia and apple sell more but so do every cheap thing in this world, and yes..nokia makes cheap mobiles for cheap people like you who are d-u-m-b and buy anything from nokia just because nokia says its good. More sale DOES NOT mean more quality, cheap things sell very well and thats all about nokia, nokia is for ret*rds who will buy crappy sets with too much things thrown in and zero functionality...thats the difference between SE and Nokia, SE is for selected or must I say BETTER people who have much more intelligence than an average mor*n like you and your buddy rizwan. ˝

          and he goes on:

          ˝SO in the end SE is for intelligent and better people, and nokia and apple are for immature and mor*onic losers like you and your buddies...˝

          Now, you need to find theintelligent elite to get good advice :)

          The fact that Nokia outsells (6:1) SE should not matter - it was so inmature to assume people knowwhatthey want :)

          The fact thatX1 is offered FREE with a cheap contact while Iphone is not - all this do not matter.

          X1 is the best. No company can make better phone ever - as someone said here a few days ago :)

          X1 made by HTC, some of the other SE phones made by Sagem.

          Naturally, HTC will make better phone for SE than HD its own. It is so obvious.

          Good luck!;)

                Why are people waiting for Gsmarena review??There are LOTS of reviews and in every review X1 stands out as the best right now.
                What more do you need?

                Great Battery Time(Much better than all WM mobiles right now)

                Best Resolution(Much better than Nokia so-called 16m color screen)

                Great Reception(Crystal Clear)

                Fantastic Design

                Responsive Touchscreen

                Fast Processor(multitasking is great)

                Great Camera(Unless you are a professional Photographer..but is there ANY professional photographer who uses his mobile to take pictures even if its 8 MP??)

                Great Multimedia

                Splendid Video

                Plenty of RAM

                What else do you need??just google it and see for yourself how great this set is. Even die hard nokia fans are turning towards it, Two of my hardcore nokia fan friends are planning to buy this set, they say that they have never seen such a beautifull screen ever in a nokia set. And every single person that have seen this mobile was mesmerized by this beauty, only d-m-b-o-s and noobs don't like it, like the two lunatics here who are so pathet*c that even when they can't buy anything than nokia 3310 but still keep coming here to post bullsh*t about the set even when they have never seen a real Xperia.
                So stop wasting your time and just go for it, you will not be disappointed, even if you have never used a WM device,once you get used to it you will love it.

                Xperia is the BEST!!!!

                              brynn, 21 Dec 2008my reasons over htc pro are better battery ,better video re... morei am more used to the SE media interface, though i love the Touch Pro / 3D touch flow tech, which according to my wife kept me entertained for more than 2 weeks. Thats a good thing considering the nokia N series has an interest lifespan of 5mins. I will not touch another n series and any god damn series for nokia since their storage system, aka the 16 GB "micro hdd", "the so called RAM (ROFLMAO)" they used always die/ goes haywire after you've passed a certain storage limit. I dont know if they made any improvement to the nseries and frankly i dont wanna know. Rather save money and buy a diamond ring for my wife, cause thats pretty much the same price on Christmas season.

                              Thanx for the opinion again. Appreciate it. Merry Xmas, Wonderful new year and Happy Holidays to you all.

                                keppel, 21 Dec 2008i heard about moto & android,i wonder if they are giving up... moremoto is still working with linux and asus are heavily involved in linux,,on the windows front they have got the front end sorted now they need to tidy up the backend with movable icons so you can tailor them like symbian..Move/copy to memory card instead of copy paste,get rid of beam because bluetooth is stable enuf and the chance of getting a virus by leaving beam out are just about zero and bluejacking has had its day,,in fact the whole lot need rarranging into categories of where stuff is supposed to be,, i wanted to change clock to 24hrs and it took me ages to find out how to do it as it was in dsome other part of the o/s..spb shell needs to be customisable ,,for instance it will only take you to wma player not the player of upour choice..Why have hsdpa in a totally diffeent place it should be under bands surly..What they are planning to do with windows 7 is add multi touch screen and motion sensor input applications which is good but they have to get the undrneath neatened up before continually bringing out flashy front ends.

                                      my reasons over htc pro are better battery ,better video recording but on many forums they reckon htc support is really awful..I also fancied the panels and s/e own media player which is not up to scratch walkman wise..I think it would be a waste of money for you to change to xperia..IF you want change their is not much left to choose from at moment..The b/b storm is causing lots of problems,,the google fone is just a test piece at moment leaving omniaos ,i-phone and n96 which is going backwrds in my opinion..
