    (I had a few typos and wanted to fix them and add a few things more...)

    This phone is truly the best. It has great functionality and a stainless-steel design with a glass touchscreen and optical navigation pad. It also as Windows Mobile 6.5, which will be far better than Symbian.

    Nokia fans are jealous of this phone and that it beats the Nseries handsdown. I know...you guys will start talking about the n95's 5MP camera and 16 million QVGA screen. Well guess what!? 3MP is efficient for a phone, and the picture quality is far more important than the megapixels. Sony is known for its excellent picture quality, like the K800.

    Now, in terms of the screen-same thing. The colors are not as important as the resolution. Although this phone has 65K colors, it will not be noticable at all, considering that this phone has a VGA resolution screen.

    The Nseries is worthless. All the phones are plastic and flimsy. There is not one Nseries phone that has a touchscreen, stainless steel design, slide out keyboard or VGA screen. I am not saying that all of the Nseries phones have bad features. There design could just be better, considering the fact that the Nseries are Nokia's flagship phones.

    For example, the n95 has a pathetic 330Mhz processor. The Xperia has a 520 Mhz. processor-maybe even more.

    People are also complaining about the interface. First of all, Windows Mobile 6.5 has not been released yet. So people should seriously stop saying that it is terrible, just because Windows Mobile 6.1 was. I have heard that WM 6.5 will come with many improvements. So, don't judge the interface when it hasn't even been released and you haven't even tried it.

    Also, wait for WM 7 to come out in 2009. I am sure that SE will offer a firmware/upgrade, knowing SE for its excellent customer service. SE won the best customer satisfaction award in 2007!

    This phone is very innovative. SE has somewhat altered the Windows Mobile interface to make it much better. The tabs are very cool.

    Also, this is the first SE phone to sport a built-in 3.5 MM headphone jack, which is simply amazing, considering the excellent quality of music offered by SE phones. The phones without this feature and with adapters have much worse music quality.

    This phone is designed for business, entertainment, and everything else you would want in a perfect phone.

    This phone will come out late September, early October of this year.

    Xperia is simply the best!

      To tell you the truth I'm tired of the "iphone killers." SE had a good thing going with the touch screen symbian based phones. If I wanted an iphone I'd get an iphone. I like SE but I guess SE likes the iphone?

          Haha.. I work at the Sony Ericsson Technical Support center in North America.. And i must say when this phone comes out.. we're going to get swamped with calls from people who will A. Break the phone in half, B. Won't know how to turn the damn thing on, Or C. Just won't know how to use it!! All i have to say is READ THE DAMN MANUAL! AND TAKE CARE OF THE PHONE!

            Steve J X1 will be running WM6.5,perhaps you should find out about WM before posting such utter nonsense.The whole Symbian environment is AWFUL which is why the applications are so inferior to WM Apps.

              Don't be silly! WM cannot touch Nokia (Symbian) when it comes to multimedia. The OS allows for excellent 3D acceleration without having to use battery draining overclocked processors. Beautiful colour screens that WM can only dream about (look at the E90; it has both a colourful and high res screen). Furthermore one achieves great camcording and photography considering it's only a phone. How many years will it take for WM To implement camcording at VGA;30fps??

                  WM is best suited to users who are blessed with average intelligence.Dumbo's will prefer Symbian.

                      I agree with both of you, I guess this phone is a pilot. If it's successful, I hope they will introduce this model under the Cybershot phone family.

                        Thanks to have an EDGE! Please don't release without an EDGE connectivity! P1 is failed because of an EDGE connectivity! And now G900 and G700!

                                  SE have announced this phone too early. It is not going to be released till September. Can people wait that long?? I certainly can't! Look manufacturers should announce new phones close to the release date. There should be a gap of no more than two months to limit piracy and also to ease anxiety on those that seriously want to purchase the device. When a manufacturer announces a phone it should be in its final stages of testing.

                                    people who thinks 5mp is better than 3mp don't know anything about cameras. more mp = bigger the picture you can develop. So I guess everyone who likes 5mp develops pictures the size of a wall. Racist people.
