Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 - user opinions and reviews

Who cares about the N97? I mean honestly if you want a dumbed down Operating System then you have no right to be contemplating Xperia X1. Unfortunately Microsoft are considering dumbing down future WinMo operating systems in a bid to suit the masses.

Just got my X1 and installed Tom Tom Navigator and Core Media player on it. I now have everything I need in one unit. This phone is awesome. The fact that it is not plasticy and is actually metal is a wonderfull thing. It is a multimeadia and multifunctional powerhouse. Those that moan about this phone either don't have one or do not have the intelligence to use it. Nokia fans are already going on about Nokia N97 but lets remember what a BIG disappointment the N96 was and based on what happened with the N96, N97 may not be here for 11 months!. I will most probably get the N97 when it comes out but for now no doubt! Xperia is KING!.

Whenever a new handset is announced it starts a flood of comparisons against a cell phone that it will be competing with. The latest announcement from Nokia is the newest N-Series phone, the N97. So what phone will the N97 be competing with, well that would be the new Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1.
Both phones are very similar in design, apart from the fact that the N97 has much rounder edges, I really like the design of these two phones. So let us look at the features of each phone to see how they match up.
The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 3.15 inch touchscreen, Full QWERTY keyboard, 3.15 megapixel camera with autofocus and video camera. Other features include GSM, HSDPA, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Built-in GPS receiver, up to 833 hours standby and up to 10 hours talktime.

Nokia N97 features include, 3.5 touchscreen, Full QWERTY keyboard, A-GPS sensors and an electronic compass, 32GB storage with a further 16GB microSD available, giving the phone up to 48GB storage. Other features include, 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, G, Wi-Fi and much more.
It is hard to choose between the two, as both phones look sexy, but the specs on the Nokia N97 kicks sony by 1 billion miles n97 rules.ok

So you sample one phone and you make a valid assessment. That is vary scientific.
The fact is that I sample size was much grater than yours and I came to a different conclusion.
But, I still do no tell people to disregard their own experience.
If they like it, like you do, enjoy it!
X1 is not expensive anymore. It is offered FREE with a cheap and reasonable contract!
X1 has some advantages and disadvantages - you obviously happy with the performance, the reliability, the reception etc.
I do not argue with you! Enjoy it! (and ignore my opinion)
But, because you are so happy with the X1 please do not force us to be happy with it - since we experienced totally different.
I am sure we could find a product that you do not like and others just crazy about. :)
So 3 weeks, what took so long?
How many you plan to buy? Do not stop now, once you found an excellent product you should get at least a few more!
Good luck with your X1 ;)

Since SE EXPERIA X1 created in this world, a lot of people, particularly NOKIA fanboys specially one guy who posted his dislike with XPERIA, truly insecured because of its supremacy both WinMo and Symbian OS. I can't image this gentleman is even more envious when the next XPERIA will be developed because for sure the next XPERIA will be the most sophisticated mobile phone ever produced (to think that the first SE WinMo is a big hit). Thank you SE for making a such wonderful mobile for such a wonderful people like SE phone users specially XPERIA X1 users. Unlike NOKIA, cheap unit for cheap person like this gentleman that I am referring to.

m7svk, 13 Jan 2009I am using x1 nearly one month, my first was send back after 3 days, was faulty unit, but like... more ˝its give you you style and everything you can imagine˝
- :)))
Funny! I do not have to push myself to imagine:
instead of:
3mp camera - 5 or 8MP
56K screen - 16M color
less than 1GB - 16GB or more
WinMo 6.0 - something (OS) that works
broken case - metal case
lousy reception - good reception
weak flash - xenon flash or something decent
unreliable battery, overheating - good battery
ALL these are already available today - no imagination required! :)

I am using x1 nearly one month, my first was send back after 3 days, was faulty unit, but like any mobile phones, you still have faulty units, second is much much better, I install voice command 1.6, spb shell 2.1.4 no one freeze, sygis mcguider maps 2009 whole europe - 45 countries - works perfect very accurate - like my garmin 760, skype 2.5 and much more applications all without any trouble ( excluding touchflow this was bad - freeze so often, I will wait for new upgrade, I must say I was using nokia, blackberry, and much more, but xperia is different, its give you you style and everything you can imagine what you can have in your pocket, and plus battery is the best, after few tweaks I am on 3-4days of normal use, easy on 2 days if I am using really hard, if people looking just for nice phone buy something different, x1 is machine for people who using it for much more as just for green and red button for phone calls....

It is free! with the contract and still not popular.
Just think about it, how many you have seen at coffe shops, restaurants, etc. Do you see people use X1 - probably never.
Iphone, Blackberry, Omnia, HTC HD etc. can be spotted but X1?
I have tried to use X1 several times, and my experience is that X1 has more software problems than any other WinMo smartphone.
There are a few reps here, they may able to give a solution for all the problems.
But, even then, the reception is just so lousy that for me it is a deal breaker even for a free phone.
I will not carry 2 phones just because the X1 may not have enough signal strength.
These are the main issues, but do not forget the battery problem as well.
Once the reps or SE fixes these I am more than happy to change the subject.
I know there are some happy X1 owner, hard to say who :) obviously there are some PR here ;)
but anyway, for those: Enjoy your phone and do not worry about my posts!
As far as the reps - just skip my post ( opinion )! :)
