When do you guys think the new SE handsets will hit the market?

Personally I'm interested in the XPERIA X1 but I'm sure i've read that this wont be out until the second half of the year (which will mean 4th quater imo) And i also like the G900 as I'm a big fan of candy bar style phones, SE have definitely out done them selves this time!

its interesting to note that we are just in the 2nd month of the year and we have seen the birth of new series (that will strengthen and broaden its portfolio)

we have:

R - for radio
C - for cybershot
X - for xperia
G - for garlic (according to oli lol, hehehe don't know what G stands for)

and in connection with these new line series, introduced new innovative "first" features:
* AM radio frequency (the first in a mobile phone!)
* Water and dust resistance of a cameraphone
* Touch auto focus (select your focus point! sweet)
* FM transmitter and built in FM antenna ( was first, then nokia came second)

Thank you for these new ranges: R,X,G,C

I dont know when all the new phones are due but many of us are still waiting for the w890i which was announced last year. They're taking very long indeed.

Yeah it was Nightblade who thought of G meaning Garlic, not me! Funny guy, he is!


Oh and SE weren't first with an FM transmitter in a mobile phone

Here we go, the LG LX550 mobile phone with built in FM transmitter was released well before the SE W980i. It is a CDMA phone.



I don't know if it was the first with an SE transmitter built in but it was definitely before SE did it.

@oli,


i edited my previous post just now. what i meant with the SE first feature included in the w890 is the built in radio antenna. so now, users can turn on the radio even without the headset plugged.

No not anymore. But at the time Crossmatched posted it, it was true. SE removed it at the last minute because it proved too difficult to achieve or something. So it WAS true, just not now. Why bring up this old thread anyway?
