X1, Touch Pro or Touch HD?

If you had to choose between these 3 devices, which would you choose?
That’s the question I am asking myself as I ponder which model would replace my over 2 year old ETEN Glofiish X500. The SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 was going to be my device of choice because it supported T-Mobile’s AWS 3G bands [...]


SE Drops The Bomb On T-Mobile Users

Announced back in February to be the first Windows Mobile phone with 5 bands UMTS on board, it was also the first to actually work with T-Mobile 3G’s AWS network. A press release which was slated for November 3rd to announce the American version (X1a) was postponed. I thought it was because SonyEricsson was [...]


No Press Release From SonyEricsson Today

So it’s almost the end of November 3rd 2008 and there’s still no press release from SonyEricsson (SE) with regards to the America version of the XPERIA X1. While there’s still an hour to go if you’re here in the Eastern zone (or 4 if you’re on the West Coast), it’s highly unlikely that [...]


Does The XPERIA X1 Support T-Mobile USA’s 3G?

At this moment, it’s really anybody’s guess. While the initial announcement back in February shows a penta-band-UMTS device, a first if I may add, we have not heard anything since.
It really does not help when, on one hand, you have sites like Connected Internet and Bengal Boy (relatively NSFW; see post #377) who have experienced [...]


SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 Delayed Till End Of Oct

I had recently placed an order for the SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 because I needed a new Windows Mobile device and one that runs T-Mobile USA’s 3G bands (1700.2100MHz bands).
When the order was initially placed, it was expected to be shipped later this week but an email from them yesterday stated that stocks have been [...]


Feeling Like James Bond?

Then be sure to make the SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 and Saab 9-X Air your next phone and car respectively. Through Bluetooth connectivity, you will be able to:

Control ambient lightning
Control front and rear seat settings
Lock the car
Open the rear compartment
Switch on and off the lights (blinkers, main lights…)

Sure, you [...]


Get Your XPERIA X1 Manual Here

The phone’s set to be shipped later this week (fingers crossed) but there’s still no confirmation as to which UMTS bands it will have. Not to worry, we’re still looking forward to this phone as much as the Touch HD but until the latter comes, we’’ll be drooling over this baby.
For those of you [...]


Is The XPERIA X1 Missing A Band Or Two?

That’s what this image seems to suggest:

I got that off CellPhone signal where they found out that the XPERIA X1 just reached the FCC and it’s got AT&T-friendly 3G bands. What’s even more interesting is that the X1 only has 3 UMTS bands instead of the 5 I initially thought.
This has seriously put a damper [...]


Want An XPERIA X1?

I sure do. Unfortunately, neither you nor me will be able to get one at the moment. But that’s about to change because Clove Technology has just sent out emails stating that October 6th will be the magical day.

Price is at £445 before VAT which translates into just under USD$743. Not too bad when you [...]


Have You Gotten An XPERIA X1?

Yesterday (September 30) marks the launch date of the SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 with UK, Germany and Sweden being the lucky trio to get their hands on it first. Not being in those markets our region, I am not sure if they’ve even hit the stores so if you’re around the area, let us know [...]

How Does That Bluetooth Headset Fair?

Ever ask yourself that question when purchasing one? I mean, reviewers can say that connection was good or call quality was decent but one’s man’s (or woman’s decent) is another’s mediocre. So how can you tell just how good the call quality of the headset is? Well, like we do [...]


XPERIA X1 Launches Mid-September

That’s according to Handango’s recent newsletter where they were calling for developers to support the new device through their Handango InHand service. While this is the final say, it does tie in with SonyEricsson’s plan to release the device somewhere in the second half of 2008. So who’s counting down? (via Engadget)


First Review Of SonyEricsson’s XPERIA X1 By BengalBoy.com

Not sure how he got hold of it but Mark Morrow from BengalBoy.com has the SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 and has reviewed it (sort of). This post (NSFW) introduces the the XPERIA X1 and as well as pictures taken by the device’s camera. Just like many of SonyEricsson’s camera phones out there, the quality is [...]
