Arch, 16 Dec 2008Thank you for this informative review. I have been frantica... moreGood Luck....my husband has an HTC Touch HD, I must say that it is a pretty good phone and the screen is great, if you can do without a keyboard then it is a nice phone to own, for me personally I felt it a bit too big, its thinner then the X1 but much wider.Touch Flo 3D is great but if like me you like different things on ur mobile then you will find the Panels on the X1 very interesting.

    I had my X1 for a month and the power circuit failed i.e. wouldn't charge from USB or mains and wouldn't switch on. I gave it back to Vodafone who said they would repair it within 5 working days. That was on the 2nd Dec. I rang yesterday (15th) and they told me it had gone back to the manufacturer!!! Anyone else had a similar problem? It's really frustrating as I was just starting to get into using it properly.

          I can't decide between the Xperia X1 and the Samsung INNOV8. All of the reviews that I've read are quite vague(no DETAILED hands on experience)and the panel interface on the videos that I've seen of the Xperia seem a little jerky. I want the Xperia for the WVGA display, processing power and great media playback.
          I want the INNOV8 for the camera, 16gb storage and user-friendly Symbian OS. Could anyone help?

            Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970hey man, you read the posting rules, didn't you?? the rules said "no commercial advertising"

            "2: internal very limited less than 1gb while n79 has 32gb!!!"
            "4: no digital tv receiver dvb-h tv broadcast receiver
            (see nokia for details :)"




            and 1 more thing i want to say (before i hit your face)

            xperia has 65k colors screen because it is limited by windows mobile!!!!!!!!!!!!
            even if xperia has 256 million colors screen, it won't be so much difference because of xperia display resolution!!

              This phone is the best, i am getting it now next months. I have watched youtube videos, on the X1. and I like all the features it has got. It got long battery and many many more cool things. The only thing is they could of done alittle better on the camera and the memory and could of put in a TV out then the phone would of even bean more cooler. I really love this phone..

              and Thank you Sony Ericsson for making such a nice phone like u have i really like what you done and use all the wonderful settings and features this phone has got. I like wwatching videos on youtube and i only like 1 video to watch it on and that is pocketnow.com they show all there working out and give alll the detail, I really cant wait until jan or feb then i'll be getting this great phone.

              I like the panels this phone has got and the way you can add staff. I like all the features

              hahahaha, it was funny my 1 friend came to my house and I showed him the phone I am getting after i showed him my video he said to me cool phone I am going to get this phone I must just ask my mom for when her contract expires also now in jan or feb, so he asked his mom and his mom said no this phone costs to much and if it brakes it will cost to much to fix. to be honest i don't think that was the case I think his mom just said no because her contract was not big enough and his mom said she not paying in lol.

              When i get this new phone I am going to take it ti school to show my teacher because we playing a game she got a new phone and then i got an n82 and she got an samsung duno witch 1, but it was like n81. so I brought it to school and she said my n81 sucks because it was big, but now I buying a way better phone than hers and the x1 is so much cooler than any other phones and now I am going to tell her, her phone sucks. Don't worry our teacher is young I got her on Yahoo mess and as fan and everything and facebook. we liker friends now that i am not a student of her no more. haha.

              Well getting back to the X1, it is a nice phone and sony E has done a good job ont he phone and I think we should all like it, Thank you all for reading this............

              THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

                    I think my first preference if i can get it for a decent price will be a HTC Touch HD and that is probably unlikely so i will be investing in an X1.

                    Thanks again, your review was very helpful!

                      X1 will not be available in SE agents/authorized distributors in EGYPT because of the stupid prohibition of built-in GPS from the stupid local authorities.

                      Whenever you need support, SE local support will assist you
                      I'm not sure if you will be obligated to pay but its better than nothing

                            it has lots of tweaks, tricks, 3rd party application.

                            you should use some nokia-sonyericson that doesn'y use WM.

                            WM is for tech geeks and with "brains"

                            to all first timer to use a WM devices.... explore your phone, learn from it and know how it works.

                                YES, he might have only seen X1 in couple of youtube videos and bunch of online pics, so why do we bother ourselves keeping trying and trying to convince him to own a X1 device for a single day before he releases the horses!

                                X1 is the best i have ever seen/owned for so long, at least for me and the majority of YOU.
                                Overpriced, YES. but it deserves each and every penny i have spent on this piece of professional luxury of quality.
                                Enough said and Enjoy your X1 to the peak!

Who will make the first one? Until then I will not buy any phone.
