Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 - user opinions and reviews

I totally absolutely agree with renji, except for the HTC part. HTC makes great phones too e.g. Touch Cruise, it's not as high end as Nokias but it has "usable" functions such as GPS and very useful scrollwheel, not forgetting the 3.2 mega pix and autofocus.

guys, better read the specs again. it has a secondary VIDEO CALL CAMERA, and when it comes to nokia, they did not release any smart phone with touch screens. They do have N800 and N810, but both lacks hi-pixel cameras. Nokia will be releasing the Nokia Tube, but it seems to be a rip-off from other PDA phones. HTC by the other hand offers low-end specs for a very high price, though runing on a windows mobile os, it just does not meet up with sony ericssons promises. I have been a user of Nokia for a long time but switched to Sony Ericsson for many good and technological reasons, at the same time, SE offers a very reasonable price for very hi-end smart phone. Just take P1i for an instance. So the bottom line, for me SE rules.

This is to everyone who says nokia this, nokia that, nokia are the best. Period fact that nokia are rapidly losing the phone market battle. If you cant see this then you really need to do your research more.
You are all shoving this phone away before you have given it a chance. As far as nokia go i would like to see a phone from them that doesnt crash all the time (even with software updates) or that actually has what it says on the box (nokia n95/ n95 8GB/ n82 - all stated as 5 megapixel camera's when in fact they are 2.6 megapixel with a software enhancement to mimic that of a 5 megapixel).
Sony brought the first decent (true) 5 megapixel camera phone out that hand a decent battery life and didnt run down after only taking a few photo's or doing a hours worth of video recording. Also you'll find that sony have always had phones with a stable enough software base to run multiple applications without crashing or having an impact on performance (P1i is especially good for this).
The Xperia is going to blow the market away. This is what we have been waiting for. Everyone is slandering the battery but the P1i only has a 1120 mAh battery and that has a 10 hour talk time and a 440 hour stanby time. The Xperia is going to be equiped with a 1500 mAh battery so you'll be looking at equal perormance in battery life (and remeber this is not a nokia so its guaranteed to last haha).
You all think that the features on this handset have already been produced but you name me a PDA handset that has a battery life that will last longer than 5/6 hours for talk time and 365 hours for standby time. Also how many PDA phones have a descent 3.2 megapixel camera with 30fps video record/playback that can offer dvd quality shots/videos. And of cors how many PDA phones have such a sleek and fantastic design that boast a 400MB intenal memory with the potential for an 8GB memory card.
All in all this is one smart phone that will be worth the wait. If you still want to cling to the faiding fad which is nokia then stay in your flock and continue to be sheep, never to experience a phone that offers true potential.
As noted previously do some research and come back when you've learnt something!!!!!

Hahaha,, Its funny that people like you post your opinion without reading anything about the phone. Its clearly stated in above specs that the phone has a secondary camera for video call. Please open your eyes before posting.. Only god can save you..

Sure, we cannot locate a camera for 3G purposes on X1, but Sony-Ericsson's official site clearly states that this model actually has video-calling enabled.

Yes E90 can do exatly that, with actualy a real qwerty keyborad, so i can type as fast as on PC, P1 just sicks because of its keyboard, but it is differend sotry with Xperia, X1 is simply an upgraded Nokia E90. Sony ericksons line of communicators :)

Well, i see a lot of people fighting over Nokia and SE.
To tell you the truth i am a Nokia fun. Out of 8 phones i had so far, 1 was Motorola, and 1 i got 18 months ago was Samsung. 6 of them were Nokia including the one i am using now the N95.
However since i have been looking into buying a Windows Mobile device, i was looking for something with a touchscreen and numeric keypad. Did not find a design that i liked so far, so i looked for something like the HTC Touch Cruise. Now the Xpreria shows up. Although i never had a Sony Ericsson phone before, i am thinking into switching to one. After all it has the new WM6.1, a 3" screen, and the looks are not bad either.
So why are you fighting over brand names. Nokia phones for me work perfectly, but who uses all the functions in a phone. I use the camera on my Nokia N95, and 5MPs are great but that happens when i do not have my digital camera with me, which is more or less everyday in the car.
So why dont yoy guys wait for the Xperia to show up in shops, for a few people to buy it and use it in real life and get to read some reviews, then make comments.
Personally i am between the Xperia and the Touch Cruise.

This is the best phone EVER.
And... , it has a camera for video call.
Not HTC nor Nokia can reach it.
Especially Nokia has to adopt some of the user friendly features of SE phones.

X1 vs. E90 is like DB9 vs. Focus
X1 has everything you need today and most probably tomorrow, an excellent OS with all kind of 3rd party applications available today where as E90 has very few.
With xperia panel you get most of the X1 where as E90 just hangs on everything even being the most expensive phone in market.
A very compact size with X1 and you can use full screen video viewer to watch full length movies, where E90 uses real player and doesn't use a pure full screen features with good quality output.
Since E90 has been launched (nearly an year ago I believe) so many problems with handsent what-so-ever NOKIA is not willing to resolve the issues.
E90 feels like a brick and which is maybe good for a coporate show-off but not a daily use phone at all.
Rest you guys know better then me if X1 is released in time (b4 ppl lose intrest) then it can sell like hot cake, I'm thanked myself that I didnt waste my money on E90 and crap iPhone ;-) (wink wink)
