X1

I bought this cell about a year ago after my Nokia 6260 went dead, I loved my Nokia it's everything I wanted and worked 4 years like a champ. The price at the time was 160+credit coupon, i took it and over the next year i used it alot as phone i found it very good never drops call,good sound,easy feature access & others used rarely but never slow or difficult. one thing that bothered me a bit no accessories for this device (cover,etc..) all in all for my money at the time its great bargain and good buy

The keyboard and the battery issues could be solved just by Hard Resetting your device - very easy and simple process! - and get some new features too!

Do u know what "Programmed/Planned Obsolescence" means??? Probably not, otherwise wouldn't say such things!

Try XDA-Developers before buy another device, OK!? It'll help u a lot!

I have had this phone for two years and I came to the conclusion that this is probably the worst, most unreliable phone I have ever owned.

The keyboard of this phone broke down 7 times in two years. I mean, what is the use of having a qwerty keyboard if you can't use it. It repeats the letters typed by the peripheral keys like the m, n, p, a, space bar etc. This implies that I have to edit a normal text message about twice before I can send it. Frustrating!

And the software is slow and very outdated. The phone is also extremely temperamental and it has a very poor battery life. This phone is probably not on the market anymore, but it tainted the Sony Ericsson image in my eyes to such an extent that I will probably never support the brand ever again. It is sad as my previous (basic) Sony Ericsson was probably the most relaible phone I ever owned. I am going to retire this phone this week and upgrade to a new smartphone! Bye Sony.

Though the usability and stability can be touchy. If you're keen on doing anything media related (apart from music) you're better off with an official Android handset. The performance of Windows Mobile devices hacked to run Android just isn't up to stuff.

> In reply to bdc @ 2011-12-19 03:49 from K6mb - click to readDon't u even think about it!!! The OS on Galaxy Wave Y (S5380) is Bada, so u won't find too much apps as u'll find for Windows Mobile, and theresn't many intel about this system like X1 has.

If u dig a little bit more u'll find out what BadaOS can do, 'coz WM everybody knows!
