Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

Main specs: GSM Quadband (850/ 900/ 1800/ 1900) and HSDPA Triband (850/ 1900/ 2100), dimension: 110.5 x 52.6 x 17 mm/ TFT Touchscreen 3.0 inches 65 K colors and 800 x 480 pixels. Powered by QualcommMSM 7200, 528 MHz., 256 MB RAM. TransFlash (Micro SD) slot and internal memory of 400 MB. Features: 3.15 MP camera with autofocus, VGA video 30 fps, flash and secondary video-call camera. Built-in GPS receiver, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, Bluetooth v2.0 with A2DP, mini USB. This gizmo is powered with Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, complete with Pocket Office (Word, Excel, Power Point) and PDF viewer, OneNote, etc. What else? Standard MP3/ AAC/ MPEG4 player.

This is Sony Ericsson’s breakthrough to compete with iPhone class PDA-phone. Almost all-screen surface only with few main buttons available in the front. This sliding out phone has a complete mini QWERTY keypad, comfortable enough for typing as there is room enough to accommodate our finger-tips navigation on it. The price is somewhat dearly, even compared to iPhone 3G, yet it offers more that just a phone. Internet navigation and business works seems to be the major leading factors for XPeria X1 to leave its rivals behind. With complete office documents reader and editor, it’s flying above the rest. Its optical toystick functioning similar to touchpad in most laptops. I recommend this gadget for those want to do their business anywhere regardless the place and space. The casing is made of metal, makes it stronger and better-look than the rest. The sliding keypad will add the benefit for those working with the office documents. Of course it won’t replace the convenience of normal QWERTY keypad in the laptops or desktop, but it helps a lot. Contenders: HTC Touch Pro, T-Mobile G1, BlackBerry Bold and Nokia E71.
