This handset dosen't appear to have the controls needed for one handed operation.Touchscreen is all well and good but at times it's nice just to use the one hand.The TyTN II has far better hardware buttons,infact one handed use on the TyTN II is very easy indeed.

      What makes you think battery life will be good?WVGA screen plus WM OS uses a lot of energy.

        finally sonyericsson came with a device that can stand face to face with nokia´s best productions! with that great battery and the fact the S/E devices are 100-200$ cheaper than correspondant nokias, i believe this one is a great alternative to the e91 and htc devices!
        good job S/E !

          Does this phone have PROXIMITY SENSOR & AMBIENT LIGHT SENSOR?

          it's a feature in iPhone that saves energy by automaticaly adjust the LCD brightness depending on the lighting condition. It also automatically turn off LCD when the phone is near your ear.

                          the no. of colours doesnt make much of a differnce for ur infoespecially wid SE.The only thing dat matters is resolution which is tooooooooooooo good for a phone(highest ever )

                                im a big SE fan. you guys should check this out.this is my observations regarding SE fones.




                                pros:

                                1.great camera quality
                                (even nokia is adapting the Carl Zeiss optics that originated from Sony cameras)

                                2.great user interface

                                3.great mp3 player

                                4.nice and elegant designs

                                5.durability

                                6.simple and attractive

                                7.doesnt look cheap(if you notice some fone manufacturers tends to use plastic or fiber instead of steel as hardware.if SE uses plastic they tend to retain the "anti-cheap" look)

                                8.price is right(my point of view)

                                9.great battery life(this is what nokia and samsung should work about.a lot of busy peoples hates charging their fones instead of doing their stuffs)

                                10.great flash and autofocus
                                (again nokia adapted the xenon flash and the idea of autofocus from SE)

                                11.reliable and stable OS

                                12.fm transmitters (great idea i suppose,and fones with am frequencies?not a bad idea.i also appreciated the idea of nokia making a camera-free business fone)

                                cons:

                                SE has been creating great high-end and competitive fones eversince but still lacks....


                                1.TV reciever(believe me some people really needs it,anytime,anywhere)


                                2.TV-out(my comment,same with TV reciever)

                                3.some still missing 3.5mm audio output jack

                                4.geo tagging (for the sake of satisfaction of high-tech junkies. but i really appreciate the GPS effort they're putting now)

                                5.a larger screen(i know a larger screen decreases the battery life but i have faith that SE can work on it)

                                nonetheless i have observed that SE fonescreens is much much more crystal clear compare to other fone manufacturers fonesreens.

                                6.some still missing wi-fi

                                7.LOUDER speakers

                                  @Shahrukh - This SE model runs on Windows Mobile 6 Professional not Symbian S60 or Symbian UIQ. Windows Mobile supports up to 65K only but be reminded that it has 800x480 pixel that matters most. You can't see the difference at all between 65K or 256K in a 3" screen. Being a user of both Symbian OS and Windows Mobile, I would still prefer Windows Mobile which is more reliable and faster. I would recommend you to buy a Windows Mobile phone, but more expensive than Symbian phones, so you could experience how Windows Mobile phone is far better.

                                    If only the display was atleast 256K....at 65K...the display is poor at best!!!

                                      With high end Symbian S60 (read Nokia)phones winning the race against Symbian UIQ (read SE), they (SE) had no option but to go ahead full steam with Windows, because as someone in the discussion rightly said that you need a big brand (read BIG R&D budget)to fully utilize the true potential of Windows.
                                      Moreover with Windows Mobile 7 and 8 in the pipeline I think SE's decision to design their flagship phone (XPERIA X1) around the Windows Mobile OS is not a bad idea at all.

                                      We also need to remember that Symbian S60 phones have lacked one major functionality compared to Symbian UIQ and Windows Mobile (Pocket PC version) and that is the touch screen functionality (the big thing for users in this post-iPhone era!), but with the news that Symbian S60 (maybe the ver 9.5)would start supporting touch screen in the near future SE would have lost that edge as well.

                                      XPERIA X1 maybe definately leave a lot of things to be desired because the current version of Windows Mobile (6, I don't know about 6.1) is not all that great when it come to multimedia (camera quality, music etc), but what ever I have read about version 7 and 8 my feeling is that these version will definately try to match Symbian in the multimedia department if not out do it.

                                      I am waiting eagerly for the XPERIA X1, .... I hope the wait is worth it !!!

                                        The Xperia X1 won't be a speed machine.All handsets with high resolution screens eg 640 x 480pixels and above suffer slowdown.
