Hello, Just thought i would post my comments on the phone,
It looks boring slow and like anyother HTC handset.
I dont see what all the fuss is about there are allready loads of handsets that do the same job and prob do it better than this. Cheers Carlos

The X1 does not suck. It's half a year away from release for Christ's sake!

i agree with X1 Sucks...the phone is wayyyy too slow moving through the "CoverFlow" lookalike. and when going from vertical to horizontal or vice versa, the screen seems to lag for at least 1 second...the phone just seems to be too laggy to have any real feel to it

Great industrial design, slow performance, ugly and outdated OSī looks, confusing interface and layout of menus. NOT thrilled.

"quite impressive, but as gsmarena said it cries for video acceleration, the animations just doenst flow as it has to.
I hope the comercial version improve that."

^^ I don't think the video accelerator would help the quite slow interface speed of the phone. it lies within the OS itself imo. look at the SE non-OS phones(A100/A200) they don't have any dedicated hardware graphics accelerators but they run animation smoothly without the same level of lag as with the WM6 does. in fact SE does used the video driver that's why it's capable of recording VGA 30Fps video.

Well yet another processor without the correct video drivers. Thats why its so slow when going to menus and changing to landscape... I can't wait to see the new HTC TyTnIII

That guys thumb is totally bending backwards at a 90 degree angle! F-in gross!

But yeah. This video proves the X1 is a hardware dream, but still leaves something to be desired in OS...

Seeing as there are no better alternatives for WVGA, this is still going to be my next phone. I DO WANT wvga video on my phone!

Just as I feared. The Windows OS definitely won't completely ruin the X1 experience, but it will make it less enjoyable. This could he fixed before release though. SE or HTC has to jump on it soon. This phone does look very promising, and I hope it does deliver. I know I'm considering trying it out.

I agree with X1 Sucks. The Windows OS totally ruins the appearance and its seems to run too slow. I was excited about this phone when announced, but so much now.

to me it looks like a rival to the E90, 3.2 mp, widescreen, gps and a os that allows editing docs plus they both have the qwerty keyboard
