Here is some of what unwired had to say:
In the set of technical specifications of Xperia X1 we can find everything, or almost everything, that power users may request: full wireless connectivity ,updated to the latest standards, powerful CPU, quad-band support with the latest technology in wireless broadband (UMTS / HSDPA), a reasonable allocation of memory, a GPS receiver. The battery is particularly advanced: although the device is extremely small in size, the capacity is 1500 mAh, unusual for Microsoft smartphone platform.
The responsiveness of the operating system is more than satisfactory, certainly greater than that of most smartphones. This feature is very helpful when the Xperia is requested for serious tasks, such as surfing heavy web pages or playing movies in a resolution equivalent to that of the display. Display we said: it’s excellent. Contrast and readability are superior, compared to other devices in category to which this terminal belongs . The visibility of details and texts is guaranteed even in difficult situations (outdoor and under the direct rays of the sun) provided you set backlight at medium / high level.
A final mention goes to the GPS system implemented in the Xperia . Based on several tests, both on the speed of fixing and on the usage of the pre-installed Google Maps, the receiver has shown average performance. The first fix for satellites took 28 seconds: 7 satellites appear under the sky visible for two thirds (during the tests were close to the veranda of a villa in the countryside). After the first fix, the GPS signal was never lost, even when, back in the lab, we positioned the device about two meters away from the closest window.
the x1 takes longer to boot than e71 but it's considerably faster at opening/closing programs etc. Check xda-developers.com for useful and honest opinions.

i wonder why the x1 voting results are higher then e71&bold?
I have used theX1 - unfortunately!
and I have used several - it was hard for me to beleive SE can make such a flop.
But I ma not the only one think this.
SE X1 was selected and published as:
˝X1 is one of the biggest flop of 2008!˝
˝It may have been the most eagerly awaited telephone of the year... and it may well have been the most disappointing telephone of the year, too. Introduced in February with (almost) operational prototypes, the phone has only just become available in stores. Its “revolutionary” Windows Mobile interface was not only slow, but it also wasn’t any more functional than other operating systems from HTC, Samsung or Asus. And since there’s only one Windows Mobile model from Sony Ericsson, developments for the proprietary interface, quite naturally, are scarce. What was supposed to be the ultimate smartphone is at best only passable, and at worst a total failure.˝
In case you are so lucky to get a good working one - be happy but do not question others´integrity.
to all x1 users
im currently using e71,since the qwerty button's a bit too small i want to buy a new phone. but still confuse in choosing either x1 or bb bold 9000

George, 04 Apr 2009I got the X1 one week ago & I am suffering from charging the battery, as it takes aroung 5-6 h... moreTO me it seems quite odd. However, it takes couple of charges before the battery can work on its full capacity. It could take such a long time maybe due to a faulty adapter? Or the power requirements arent the same?(like 110V or 220V)
I got the X1 one week ago & I am suffering from charging the battery, as it takes aroung 5-6 hours just to charge the battery, however the battery is OK as it stays for 1 to 1.5 day with huge usage including, push mail, intentet, lots of voice calls & SMSs)
Please help me, should I return it or its nprmal to take such time in charging it
Thanks & waiting your soonest feedback
Anonymous, 03 Apr 2009Disadvantages:
1: poor reception
2: lousy camera
3: unreliable OS - WinMo
4: out... morehas this guy used an x1
1: poor reception ... its not the best but its average
2: lousy camera.... camera is good mid range camera touch focus and sport mode work really well
3: unreliable OS - WinMo..... highley usable expandble os with tons of free apps
4: outrages quality control - cracked case............ no case problems built really well
5: bad battery performance .... this battery destroys iphone /n96 / most other multimedia phones tested running i player on all 3 via wifi n96=2hr iphone= 3.5 se =4+ hours still 30% battery
6: slow performance....faster than n96 dont notice lag myself
7: xxK color :))) ............screen has way higher definition u can only c a few more colours who cares.
8: limited memory (internal) *gb card o no £20 aghh huge price how do i afford it lol
in summary use an x1 before u critisise sum ppl love it some hate but dont lie.
It'a a wonderful pc-phone that accepts all applications, I installed msn , skype , facebook panel & many tools that provided me with reliability & flexibility.Alsom the touch panel make the phone easier,it's simply the best till now.
Well I've had Nokia's for the past 4 years and know how it works, now that I purchased an X1a. I've got to tell you there's so many retrictions for Symbian users, WinMo is the clear winner over Symbian. It's early days on my 1st WinMo device and I still have a lot to learn, so many possibilities with WinMo. On other forums like HoFo, all they can say is WinMo sucks because its too complicatied. Everytime I see that I think to myself too complicated for their caveman brain(me make call, me no use WinMo).
hi there,
I'm going to buy my LOVELY black SE X1 tomorrow,
it is best phone ever,,,
please help me with problems in future,,
thank you.,,,
love.

Disadvantages:

3: unreliable OS - WinMo
4: outrages quality control - cracked cases
5: bad battery performance
6: slow performance
7: xxK color :)))
8: limited memory (internal)
Advantages:
1: SE has an excuse - made by HTC
2: SE promised never let HTC make another SE model
3: not made by Sagem (like other SE models)
4: new model is announced already (Idou)
5: most people not surpriced
6: offered free with return/echange policy
7: slow sales (not many people got burned with this model)
8: it used to be very expensive
No wonder SE loses money each quarter.
