I've been using this phone for more than a year, just dropped by here to give thanks to SE for making such a nice phone. I use link2sd and change my rom time to time,
this phone gives me nice experiences. Of course its old processor and very small ram wouldn't do hardcore apps, but for browsing, texting, fb, twitter, youtube(i use tubemate), reading tons of ebooks, my x8 does its job fairly well.
im planning to get SE live as soon as I could. Kudos to Sony!

This is a very good phone if, and only if you are patient enough to learn how to root it get the Link2SD to work.
If you are not patient enough to read tutorials, download the required software, and learn, then do not buy this phone.
It took me 3 hours to learn what to do, find working download links to get the programs to root it, then flash the phonebaseband for E6 to E15, then partition the SD card, then get Link2SD to work. And I'm a technical person.
It is worth the hard work, as no more storage problem since apps can be moved to the SD card. And you can remove all the bloatware from your phone to increase ram and internal memory as well. (with Root Explorer)
As to the so-so points:
Yes the camera is not fantastic, just ok for causal shots. No macro, no zoom. i have a very good Panasonic camera, so I do not care about my phone camera.
Yes the video recording is not perfect, some framedrops. Just fine for casual use. Who cares? When I want video, I want 720p minimum, and I would need a phone 3 times as expensive for that.
Yes screen is small, but it's sharp.
Yes phone can be a bit slow sometimes, nothing to worry about though. With a good task killer, it works better.
Battery is fine, 5 hours of continuous use with wifi and bvrowsing. Otherwise, with wifi off, gps off, 3G off during the day, I charge it every other day or less. (and I use it 2 hours a day for gaming or stuff)
The good points:
The price!
The size!
The sharp resolution of the screen!
All the things it can do quite well: GPS tracking for sports (easy to fit in a pocket!), Ebook reading, casual gaming (many games work fine, just not 3D games, come on, it's not meant for this), music player, video is ok if you get a large size SD card, class 4.
Youtube works fine!
Android 2.1 is good enough for everything, no need to install a new rom. (but you still can, so this is great!)
So for those of you who do not even read tutorials and do not understand technical stuff: buy another phone. The low internal memory makes the phone useless.
For the rest of us, this is a great phone to play with.

I got this phone on may 20th, and its a pretty good one, the only problem is that the apps are in the phone memory, and to do that we need app2sd, but we have to update to 2.2 or 2.3.7 right?
can i have the link for 2.3.7 and the instructions?
is the phone stable after the update? and the android market wouldn't disappear right?
please guys help me out soon
