Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 - black (unlocked)

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 features an interactive panel interface that lets you customize the smartphone to your wants and needs. The Windows Mobile device also has an attractive design and a full QWERTY keyboard

Without U.S.-carrier backing, the Xperia X1 has an exorbitant price tag. The navigation controls are difficult to use, and the Web browsing experience wasn't the greatest

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 is a well-designed and fully stocked smartphone that offers great customization through the interactive panel interface. However, with its high price tag, the X1 will be a hard sell for most customers and will be a purely ...

In recent weeks, we've seen the release of a number of highly anticipated smartphones, including the RIM BlackBerry Bold and the T-Mobile G1, and now we have the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1. Fast-forward to now, where the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 is...

Hands-on with the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1

By Bonnie Cha

It's pretty easy to see why there's so much buzz about Sony Ericsson's first Windows Mobile device. The hardware is elegant and strong, and it is more compact and sleeker than I originally thought. When you slide open the phone, the curved shape ...

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 review

By Michell Bak and Paul Smith

The launch of Sony Ericsson's premium high-end brand XPERIA back in February was a courageous and highly unexpected move that now seems to be one of the most brilliant moves in a long time. Without further ado, here is to our in-depth review of what ...

There are currently no Sony Ericsson phones that should be compared to the X1. Nor are there any that can match the X1 in terms of features and functionality. If we were to take a comparing look at the global market of smart phones, we'd find a tiny ...

Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

Sony Ericsson's first Windows Mobile device, the Xperia X1, got a lot of buzz last year for its slick and customizable software interface and stylish design. Although the Sony Xperia X1 is a feature-packed, well-designed handset with excellent ...

Slick Windows Mobile overlay Eye-catching ergonomic design

Expensive, even for an unlocked phone Windows Mobile is sluggish

The 3.2-megapixel camera has a few advanced features such as auto focus, 3x digital zoom, three quality settings and five picture sizes. Image quality was good, with fairly accurate colors and clear details. But on a handset this expensive, I expected ...

Review: Video review of Sony Ericsson's Xperia X1

By Michael Oryl

While we had some problems with our initial Xperia X1, in the end we were fairly impressed by Sony Ericsson's first foray into the world of Windows Mobile. Learn more in Michael's 5 part video review.

In the end, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 comes across as a niche product.

The X1 is also the first in what we expect to be a range of Xperia handsets that will eventually be released, and it also features Sony Ericsson's new Panels home screen interface.[The silver X1 used in 4 of the 5 videos in this story had some...

Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

By Sascha Segan

The luxurious, unlocked Windows Mobilebased Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 has plenty of features. But it also has plenty of bugs. And at an exorbitant $799.99 (list), I simply can't imagine anyone buying it when there are so many other solid options ...

Powerful processor. New Panel interface is the best Windows Mobile home-screen hack so far. Opera browser

Insanely expensive. Buggy. Not a great voice phone

The super-luxe Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 would be a decent Windows Mobile smartphone choice if it were half the price.

There's a microSD card slot under the back cover. (The X1 rejected our 16GB card, even though Sony Ericsson claims the phone should accept cards up to 16GB.)The X1 offers two major software features that you won't find on other Windows Mobile...

Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 Review

By PhoneArena Team

Windows Mobile has always been a powerful but clunky OS, but recently we've seen manufacturer efforts to clean it up and make it more user-friendly. Sony Ericsson has thus far ......

Sexy design, solid construction, Large, high resolution display, Panel interface is useful, We liked the keyboard, but those with big fingers may disagree, Snappy performance within Windows environment

Some might find it a bit heavy, but others will like the weight, We would have liked to see a dedicated Back key, Video player needs a bit of work

All in all we have to give the Xperia X1 high marks, especially for Sony Ericsson's first attempt at a Windows Mobile device. Having HTC by your side definitely helps, but we like Sony's innovative panel interface even if it isn't quite as good as ...
