Another Sony's desasterous failure...... Just like Playstation 3. Sure, it makes profit, sure it's a good product. But I'm sure Sony will only accept nothing but th BEST.They've let themselves down again!
BUT I love T303!!! That's a WINNER

reo, 23 Nov 2008SE X1 users,plz don't make it personal.
x1 is a great phone.but it's not the game changer.i... moreWe need to wait for the new browser from Microsoft which will be IE6 along with the new Flash from Java. Anyone who jumped the gun and bought this device without these 2 features is sort of screwed.
They should be in mobile phones and smartphones within the next 2 months. Once they have these 2 features web browsing will be much better and on par with the Safari browser that comes in the Iphone.

SE X1 users,plz don't make it personal.
x1 is a great phone.but it's not the game changer.it's not even closer to that.se promised to beat iphone.but can it?it got 3.0 inchs lcd,3.2 mp camera!but look at '06 phones 5mp(N95),8gb(N91),3.5 inchs lcd(iphone).it's 145grms.costs $885 in dolls.omnia have much better options with slick price and weight.what i hate of x1 bcoz is not a 1 hand operateable phone.qwarety & browsing experience was not GREAT.card slot was underneath the cover.it takes more to be a game changer.
hope next x would be a all in one game changer.

look on vodafone forums and all you see is users complaining. It's not SE to blame,it's vodafone's tampering

well,
out of the box experience, not good
after tweaks, not bad
camera, horrible! worst than my old trusty K800i
flash almost non existence.
hope new firmware will make the experience better
else goodbye xperia...

first of all Congrats buddy.. now i am really waiting for u to share ur experience :) Thanx RaXa,,firstly i am glad i got black,,screen is fantastic just watching quantum of solace trailer and at beggining when M.G.M. lion comes up the gold against black is vivid,pin sharp and mega colourful..TRied an mp3 and s/e own player is better than wm player as its crisper..Just setting things up and as for speed it took wm player i first tried 20 minutes to update library with 2,500 files on a 16gb card..
Fisrt woes,,no graphic equaliser out of box on s/e player,,and qwerty is brilliant to type with with not one typo on practice runs but it can just bleach out so you cannot see keys at certain angles,,you have to tilt it a bit it in light to see keys..It reminds me of my sharp gx30 where the keys just looked silver in bright light..
Its really comfortable in both landscape and portrait to hold and operate..I have not done that much yet their so much customisation and dont know how to operate fish or know what multi colour leds mean yet..Yahoo go wont load its not available yet so using yahoo normal for emails..
Cam seems fine there is lots of settings and vga video can judder slightly on fast panning but when played back it looks fine enuf..Have been on s/e downloads for panels and got spb shell or something as a free download plus theirs free windows live panel and facebook panel...Got a thickhead now after nearly 5 hrs solid playing about on full blast backlight and its on half battery now,,my n82 would have been dead at about 4hrs 10 minutes using that loading..I am going now and was going to put it on charge overnight but cannot till its dead and to tired to spend another 5-6 hrs solid with it..plus dont know how battery meter works,,it may be a while off yet before second charge.bye

I have gone through all the reviews, and one thing that I have noticed is that people keep on complaining about the software, either too slow, or locks up, or something with the wifi.
But one thing that should be considered is that the firmware on WM phones are very dynamic and there are already a couple of software updates available for the X1 that addresses those issues. Even cracked touch pro firmware that runs on the X1. All can be found on XDA-developers website.
First of all you have to decide if you want a QWERTY phone with a touch screen, or a pocket pc that you can install millions of apps on. If you all you want is a QWERTY phone the DONT get the X1.
If you are a little bit technical and dont mind installing patches or hacked firmware. Then the X1 will be an awesome pocket pc.

Anonymous, 22 Nov 2008People who write about color @ 65k don't know much about technology, see the 800 x 480 pixels ... moreI am very happy for you that you are totally satisfied with your X1 and its 65K color etc.
But, what you need to understand/consider that some of us just unable to really enjoy all that great resolution when the phone locks-up, and/or drops calls.
You may got a (the) perfect one. Enjoy it!
:)

People who write about color @ 65k don't know much about technology, see the 800 x 480 pixels high resolution screen is more than twice that of iphone's 320 x 480 pixels screen and FIVE times better than Nokia's 240 x 320 16M color screen.
