I myself am a great supporter and fan of SE, but this phone really leaves even the N96, speechless with shock, as the X1 processor is waay faster and efficient! HATS OFF TO SONY ERICSSON!

dbz on Sep 11 2008
The lone wait is over. The P series reborn. I just remember how people gets envy with someone operate his p800 with a touch. Definitely, this will be considered the new king of winMo. No doubt.
rehamer on Sep 11 2008
FINALLY!!!
keight00i on Sep 11 2008
SE have proven with the P990 that they are willing to spit on our graves, why should the X1 change their attitude to support? I'm going for an HTC Touch Pro instead
NeverSE on Sep 12 2008
expect numerous faults, each promising to be fixed with the next firmware update,but eventually ending up the same way as the terrible p990
jimmy on Sep 13 2008
too late.............. got myself a HTC touch diamond instead
Dhakz on Sep 14 2008

Jos on Sep 15 2008
I have got myself a HTC but its up for renewal. wonder how long it will be before its available on Orange contracts in UK. hope all the stories of P990 is not repeated on the X1. been waiting for this for a while now.
Mo on Sep 15 2008

Once your a UIQ Symbian user, you can never like another operating system.
Dreamer on Sep 21 2008

yourmamma on Sep 21 2008
You`re an idiot
AW0079 on Sep 21 2008
I forgot this phone even exists
QVGA on Sep 21 2008
I hope I win one of these things so that I can either give it away or better yet sell it to some idiot. SE is on the way down. Let's make it painless for them to finally go away.
nolongersefan on Sep 21 2008
Wrong marketing... its been how long since they anounce the phone.. Now they are releasing.. By the time they introduced so many phones to the market, but people are waiting to see X1, so they dont pay attention to other handsets..
malkoc on Sep 22 2008
