The folks at Boy Genius Report have managed to get their hands on the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1. So what’s their verdict? Right from the 800×480 VGA screen, optical joystick, speedy HSDPA , the device impresses, and you really can’t throw any more specs in! With looks to die for, its not surprising that the X1 is the #1 Windows Mobile device people are waiting for. Their Sony Ericsson X1 gallery doesn’t have any shots of the Panel interface, so for now you’ll have to make do with some shots of the nice looking exteriors of the device.

Thought I’d just post a few photos of the G700 and G900 compared to each other, and just for the fun of it, add a W960 in on one of the photos, to show you how small these really are. Keep in mind that W960 was actually quite an improvement over other UIQ phones. As you can see, the G’s are quite alike, with only minor hardware differences.

I received the W890 only a few days ago and it was love at first sight. I love the materials used and the colour variants look absolutely smashing. Build quality feels very good and phone is extremely sturdy. About 30 people have had a look at my W890 so far and all were impressed by the quality of it.
W890 is really thin and has a nice format and weight. It’s less than 80 grams and fits perfectly into any pocket. It feels nice to hold in your palm due to the rounded edges and the nice choice of materials (it’s metal!). Its “wow”-factor beats just about everything else on the market and - in my opinion - it looks so much better than the W880.
This is a Walkman phone so it is of course marketed at music lovers. It comes with a 2 GB memory card which can hold about 500 songs in MP3 format or up to 1,000 - 2,000 songs in advanced AAC codec formats. The speaker isn’t bad but it’s not perfect. It lacks bass and depth. However, if you decide to listen to the music with the bundled earphones everything sounds excellent and the volume level is decent.
The camera is a fixed focus camera with a resolution of 3.15 mega pixels. I’m finding it hard to see why Sony Ericsson had to up the ante on the amount of pixels. In my opinion they should have stuck with 2 mega pixels like on the W880, but again - it is a major selling point for unknowing consumers. The camera performs OK without being superb in any way whatsoever.
Call quality seems pretty good. Volume might be a little low (I’m in doubt whether it’s the phone or me) and the display seems a bit low on brightness (again, this might just be me). Speaking of the display, everything else about it is excellent! The colour saturation is very nice and it is unbelievably crisp. With regards to colour saturation I’d say that it’s on par with the excellent display on the K850. However the K850’s display has its pros and goes out as the winner in this small comparison.
Overall, W890 feels like a really neat phone. Personally, I feel like this is a must-have in my collection and I will now have to do a dig in my wallet to find some money to pay for one of these babies. Price is about £200 - £250, which isn’t too bad.
Expect an in-depth going review of W890 with lots of photos late this week. A gallery of the phone will come later today.

Here are a few exclusives shots of the unannounced / cancelled M610 smart phone by Sony Ericsson. It is still unknown why Sony Ericsson cancelled this model, but probably because it was too close to M600 and P1.

My boss from work is currently finding himself at this year’s MWC, and last night he was enjoying himself with the latest Sony Ericsson offerings. In this video, he and official Sony Ericsson representatives - including Dee Dutta (!) - are taking a look at the new C902 Cyber-shot phone, the XPERIA X1 multimedia smart phone & the W980 Walkman phone. The video is mainly in English, so don’t worry about it being a Danish video Press the picture below to go to the 6 minute long video.
