Yesterday I was lucky enough to have 5 minutes to play on the X1 at the smartphone show. I was worried that Sony Ericsson were hyping another poor performing handset but I was actually surprised how much I liked the phone. It looks great and feels high quality. I am currently a windows mobile user so I am pretty familiar with the OS which probably helped. Sony's panel views are a nice way to quickly jump to different open windows but it took a fe...

The first thing that I noticed when I took the phone out of the box was the "feel" felt great.

The problem is, moving from the iPhone to the Xperia is the equivalent of moving from a thoroughbred to a flatulent donkey. The interface feels clun... Read the full review ...
I got my Xperia on 1st November this year. It is my first Windows Mobile device, but my third Sony Ericsson.Although the handset looks and feels good, there are build quality issues:The back drops off at the slightest knock, as it's only held on by two little tiny metal blips on the inside, that go 'flump' instead of 'click' when you push the back on...The plastic cover over the lens already has three cracks in it. As far as I know I didn't whack... Read the full review ...
I have been waiting for this phone for a very long time. Ever since it’s launch was announced with great fanfare back in Feb I have been following its progress.It took so long to come to fruition it has almost been a bit like an internet dating experience; as bit by bit you discover more to attract you. “hi SEX1, you look really good in silver “ooh you have panels how very intriguing” wow your screen looks huge!
