Quick question, just out of curiosity
I think I will, but I will still keep my faithful X1
paint issues and cracks on version 1, then to bring version 2 with nothing new except for 8.1 mp cam and autorotate why should I? I love my x1 but that does not mean i am totally satisfied with it, if I get one for free to blog about or advertise yea i will get one, but i am not paying that kinda cash for the x2...the keyboard looks usable, but its ugly as sin, the only sexiness on it is the screen and the back of the device...i will switch to htc, then maybe wait later for the x5 or the next version with winmo 7
If its going to be laggy and slow then its a no.
But i will wait until i read some reviews and see it when its been released to see if it is good enough
A waste of money.. better wait 1 or 2 years for windows 7+ phones those will be WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more powerfull.
HTC made the X1 so theres no way im going to move across and buy any of their junk after the mess they made of the x1. (my bro had an HTC phone a while back and that was terrible too so i shoulda known better!) The X2 is made by sony so ill give it a lot of consideration. so far its looking promising.
sony always do a few updates to a series of phones p800-p900 > p910-990 > p1i so anyone expecting a completely different phone is going to be sorely dissapointed and obviously doesnt know how sony operate. maybe they should of named the X2 the X1.5? lol

okay, you wait two years without getting a new phone
hell NO! NO WAY!!
Yes.
X2 has a lot of upgrades and improvements over X1.
Plus for me a much better design.
Addictionally it will be on WM 6.5.
As X1 looks great, on photos X2 looks 2 times better.
IMO of course.
For sure I'll take the X2 !
Many users complain about the X1. Ok it's not perfect.
If I take an example with other SE phones, the K750i (first SE photophone with autofocus) was also very buggy and it's hardware was not ok either (joystick and camera lens problems). But the next K series were just fine.
So I hope thy will also drastically improve the quality of the X series. I am happy with my X1, but it's very perfectible. The X2 seems to have all the features missing to the X1, so I'll get it for sure.
Nope, I don't buy ****ty devices.

Blah blah blah.
Not with the same slow ass processor and weak unsupported chipset. Thats the only thing I want improved from the X1.
I will probaly not go with the X2 this time around because:
1) My X1 continues to serve my needs
2) The X2, while having some very nice new features, will be too expensive for me to buy so soon
3) XDA Developer support of the X1 means we may see some X2 features on the X1
I'm really waiting for a killer Android handset. I have Windows Mobile fatigue, but I don't want an iPhone or Pre or Symbian device.
I think X2 is what X1 is supposed to be...price probably will be high...let's see first when it is release...observe for a couple of weeks or months...
X1 lack of support on SE...we'll see about X2
if i get one free as a replacement for my x1 i will happly have it as it is better than the x1 but not better enough for me to pay £500+ when i already have a x1.
Well, to me most important is whether any of the cooks will buy the X2. Cos if not, guess that's bye bye to the cooked ROMs for the X2. Unless we donate to the cooks to get them a X2 and ask them to cook for us (assuming they are willing to). Anyway, guess that's still early to be saying.
SE should drop Windows Mobile ENTIRELY - it's an architecturally crap OS, impossible to fix.
Give me an Android X2/X3 and I'll be all over it.
Hell, no way this was the last mistake I've made with SE devices, too expensive not worth it!!!!
I 'll stick back to HTC...
No, because nokia N900 come soon ^^
And I want keep X1, N900, and I'll buy the X3
Wm, linux, androïd... Yeah lol

dude... u bought the x1... u fail
I know, i know...there has been said soooo much about the possible ROM-update voor X1 from wm 6.1 to wm 6.5....but there is just still is a bit of a bluh-feeling about the xperia not getting a final boost in performance/experience!
Not one person i know woth a x1 is going to buy the x2, and everyone i know with another phone, and everyone i read about on the net is looking at other phones! the X2 is bound to be a huge flop, simply because they (SE) are running behind! Everyone i know is talking about the HD2 woth its huge screen, or the omnia 2 with its huge screen and bright colors...the iphone is still hot with its huge screen, so is the touch pro 2, the hero, and even the Acer is getting ooohs and aaaahs!!!
And sony is coming with the X2? just compare all those hot phones with the xperia 2....not a great comparison IMHO!
N o, what i think what should be done, is to make the X1-fans more happy with their phone than they ever been, make the product really what it should be...skip the X2...and focus an the x3...(wich should be the true X2)
And because SE isn't doing anything right now about that, i would ask everyone who has the most cleanest wm 6.5 rom to link to the right thread, so any of the new(unexperienced) users can find a way to use their phones as they were brand new!
am with you
looked around for a x1 update to found some clean roms just dont know if its all worth it am not buying the x2 for all you know when we get the x2 the x3 will be out in afew months
pls let me know if you find a 6.5 se update for the x1
The SE rachael is now officially labeled the X10, not X3 anymore.

Personally I'm shooting for Rachel. I am jumping off the Windows Mobile train.
Hello, i'm not english and very young so so sorry to detroy your language!
But i want to buy a WindowsPhone and I don't konw if i have to buy Xperia x2 or HTC HD 2 ! Who's the best for you? I love the physic keyboard on Xperia but the hardware appears to be old! Winmo 7 Will be possible on Xperia?
Help me please! I don't want to buy a bad product!
I think keep this phone for 2 years maxi!!
Thanks in advance
Given the two choices, get the HD2. The hardware is far superior than that of the X2. It has a much better chance of running WM7 than the X2 also, when/if that becomes possible.
Completely agree, go for Leo!
Just adding that with Leo you´ll have the plus of having this site magnific support
Okey Thanks for your reply! I Think test them and buy the HTC...
Thanks a lot!
how old are you then?
And i would get an acer m900
I'm 15!
and I think that the m900 is a bad phone :/

Have to agree from the reviews i've read and it's just not HTC
Go for the HTC HD 2
It's real damage that the X2 have a bad processeur (525Mhz)
i have tried a few diffrent winmo phones from diffrent companies, acer/toshiba/HTC and HTC are leagues ahead of the competition, i sold my
TGO1 after a week and bought a hero lol
Go for the htc hd2 and hang out on xda!
The HD2 is the best phone but if your 15, dude i hope you have big hands!
LOL! Yes i've big hands
@mancsoulja: Android is better than WinMo ? Cause, the X10 comes with Snapdragon, so i can wait...
Android is good, the diffrence between winmo and android is on android everything works lol there are no errors, no force closes no issues what so ever that i have had with my winmo devices, everything just works first time every time, although i always seem to come back to winmo, i think the quality of software is much higher on winmo, u can get programs for everything, where as android is not so good software wise, they will and are catching up to windows but its your personal opinion
Okey, so i prefer WinMo, i think Android it's like iPhone OS... Not realy but I want a new thing.. So WinMo is perfect !
Witch WindowsPhone have 1Ghz and Physic keyboard ?
None to this date!
I am waiting for that too but don´t think we will see it till 2011 (hope I´m wrong...)
windows phone or windows CE phone
the only windows phone is this powered by xp http://www.xpphone.com/en/
Good hardware but it's a very big phone :/

Not always the newest is the best
I would recommend an HTC Leo capable of run 2 OS: Stable, trustable business oriented WM and also young, funny Android
You can have the best of both platforms on the same device
With same or even better specs than newer devices

Until the dual core Qualcoms come out the Snapdragon is top dog. The Leo also has 1024 mb of ROM and 576 mb of RAM in the T-Mous version, and it can dual boot WinMo and Android.

leo had a faster processor but i prefer complete android as windows is a lil out dated now....untill the windows 7 phones come out....
I placed this in Q/A instead of general cause..... it's a question that's been bugging me since the beginning of all this X8 Modding stuff.
The question is Why did you buy the Xperia X8 when after, rooting and unlocking, a lot of people will want to install an HTC sense ROM or basically Clone the look of the HTC sense UI?
Why not buy the HTC Wildfire S? same proc speed, same GPU, TRUE DUAL Touch Capacitive screen, 512 ROM, 512 RAM (418 useable) and upto 32GB SD Support and Built in Android 2.3. and ofcourse SENSE UI 2.1.
BTW, this question is really valid only for those who bought their X8's after May2011.
hi
i live in iran and htc wildfireS in my country is 320 Rial
but xperia x8 is only 180 Rial !!!!

That's actually a good reason. Price.... but, with the wildfire S which is less than double the price of the X8 you don't have to root and hence lose your waranty, and more than double the benefits of the X8. (RAM,ROM,True DT, Ginger ROM, etc)
Not dissing anyone or their decision on getting the X8, coz i love my X8 too and believe it or not, i like the original SE UI compared to HTC Sense. That was actually the reason why i got the X8 against the original Wildfire, and that was almost year ago. when the price of the X8 is actually more than the original Wildfire.
But my Question remains, with all the benefits of the Wildfire S, aside from price. Why get the X8?
and, Why put in Sense UI?
'Coz, to me it doesn't make sense...
.....Just asking.....
Cause it was Cheap
My friends told me that it is good
Can be over clocked highly D
Unfortunatelly it hasn't got so good camera, but it is good enough for me...
Because my gf want a phone that match my x10.. (^^,)

Very good of you
But i believe that yes, in the heart of it all, it comes to looks. Compared to the others, SE phones are probably the sexiest phones around, bar none.
i mean, if you didn't know the specs and you had the current superphones (Atrix, Sensation and S2) side by side with the ARC or NEO, what will you buy?

Because its cheap, good and very good loking phone with pretty good hardware so you can do what you want with it...
I remember a few months back. We were cursing SE due to their lack of support. A lot of people even said that they will no longer buy a SE phone. I was one of them
Guess what? I'm deciding on whether to get the Neo or the Ray.
Because... they look good!

yeah, same....
I bought it (July '11) mainly because of the special offer by my italian mobile carrier (49 €)
My primary phone was and is a Nokia N85, and I took the chance to finally try an Android-based phone with a very good specs/price ratio
Why X8?
I buy X8, while I'm a serious SonyEricsson fan (K510,K750,W585 and X8)
This model have a good price/knowledge ratio, and smaller than X10
Here in Portugal, Vodafone PT:
Sony Ericsson X8 €124,89
HTC Wildfire S €229,90
I think this is the reason why a lot of people buy X8 instead of WildFire S

Your age isn't a problem, but be carefull choosing your girl, she must have a Sony Ericsson Xperia™ phone
My ex-gf has a Nokia 5300 XpressMusic, thats why the ex prefix LOL
So, its mainly a price/performance/looks argument.
What's your next phone gonna be? Still SE?

I would probably still choose smartphones in the Xperia base because they look awesome and their specs are pretty good too.
Hope that helps.
The funny thing about the new xperia's is that SE is now helping with the development if 3rd party ROMs. Bold move, but I guess they learned their lesson from the F&ups of 2009-2010. ie the Arc is what the X10 should have been.
Hardware wise, they have to catch-up on the Super Smart Phone and tablet bandwagon.
