Ladies and gentlemen introducing Sony Ericson xperia x1

TommyD · 02-15-2008, 01:07 AM

All I had to see was the Windows Mobile OS. If that wasn't the OS I'm sure it would be quite cool. No thanks.

***OweNsi*** · 02-15-2008, 01:13 AM

sorry.. iphone>

osohormiguerro · 02-15-2008, 01:15 AM

helio ocean is the only iphone killer out right now. i think the only phone running 3g network.

rocfella05 · 02-15-2008, 01:18 AM

I Vtec, do you? · 02-15-2008, 01:27 AM

Yeah I'm loving that thing. When I saw it on digg last week I freaked thinking it was on sale

KShirza1 · 02-15-2008, 04:45 AM

i don think well see this in the us... if so itll be cool. looks like windows mobile 6 redone.

stargate69 · 02-15-2008, 05:59 AM

Well boys, I already have it and I'm not all that crazy about it. I have an Iphone as well, but the iphone downloads at broadband speeds and its not as bulky. Oh, and the Ericson was $850.00 unlocked!!
I gotz my Iphone...unlocked 1.1.1 firmware for 4 bills!!And it came with SNES games up the wazoo

volvo9 · 02-15-2008, 08:10 AM

If it's available overseas then it won't make it here. All the phones we have here suck, stripped down pieces of crap.

You know what cracks me up about 3g, I had a 3G Phone in Italy 3 years ago. The U.S. Mobile monopolies still have one of their largest companies using CDMA and you need a damn loan to take out a mediocre phone unless you want to be tied down to a contract until your social security starts to kick in.

Go Stateside technology! Nothing like holding people back and retarding technological evolution.

3G is fast. I loved watching TV at work. Lol.

Duce2k · 02-15-2008, 11:52 AM

How do you use a phone like that in the us though, wireless carriers put up a huge stink when you try to activate a phone they didn't sell. I know Verizon just tells you to get lost if you bring in a phone they didn't originally sell.

I had a phone I bought off eBay a few years ago that I was using with Cingular and my text message plan got messed up, as soon as they found out what phone I had they would just tell me they could not help till I got one of their phones. I just called back and lied saying I had a XXXXX phone and they fixed it.

**marc-o-lishuz** · 02-15-2008, 03:50 PM

It's a GSM phone... just stick your SIM card in and you're good to go. Your wireless carrier won't know what device you're using, nor should they care. They provide the service, I have the choice to use whatever device I want.

I've always bought unlocked GSM phones. I'm even using an iPhone in Canada (not released here yet).

kyller34 · 02-15-2008, 04:33 PM

im getting one of those when it comes out!
