This thing is pretty hot! And the touchflo 3d is more usefull than those little 9 panels that SE wants to implement in X1.
Trying to make up my mind which to get.....SEX1 or the upcoming Raphael (Touch diamond+qwerty keyboard).... |

Can someone please tell me what the difference is between the Qualcomm MSM 7201A and 7200A (as in SE X1)?

Just found some stuff on the net and it looks like maybe there is no difference between 7200 and 7201 although hopefully Akshay can confirm.

Well, cause by looks of it, the panels are nothing special except for a visual task manager/shortcuts. I bet you can do all that stuff without the panels just as fast as with them. i.e. switching through windows and programs.
Dont get me wrong, I too do want x1 or raphael but these panels are certainly not reason to get it. Just trying to figure out whats better. |

Yeah, but we can't judge X1's UI. It's not even finished yet! |

Absolutely stunning device and a beautiful interface...but triband GSM is epic fail.
Here's to hoping for a rightful Touch Cruise successor in the future. |

this looks good but after checking the specs the down sides (for me) are :-
900mAh battery
4gb internal memory (which is a basic level these days)
no external expansion via micro-sd etc
it still uses the HTC mini-usb connector for headsets, i.e. no 3.5mm socket
quadband GSM would have been better as would quad (or even quinn(?)) band UMTS
X1 still has my money waiting for it

You're right, but just judging from SEs past and all that stuff that happened including rumors (m600, p990 & w950 would get the new ui with shortcuts on the homescreen) I really doubt and dont trust SE at all.
I mean that would be a BIG bang if SE came out with a new ui and not jsut the panels....I just dont see it happen. But I bet the media manager would e nice, sort of like the regular se phones |

Will X1 be able to view pics in the same way by sliding?

Don't think so.
I like the X1 well enough, but I am not impressed by the panels. I LOVE the 3D TouchFlo of the Diamond...but, again, the bands don't work for me at all.
Looks like I'm hanging onto my N95 for even longer.
