First Impression

The X1 has a “curved slide” that angles the screen up, banana-style, when you slide out the keyboard. While moving around the device,we can see that the peripheral buttons are decent enough and there's no floppy rubber doors over ports or the MicroSD card slot to ruin the feel of the device.The screen. Good god, the screen is really beautiful. Flush, bright, and very high resolution.So yes, the hardware delivers. The software is Windows Mobile 6.1.

Review

With a 800×480 VGA screen, the top that this is the best-looking screen we’ve ever seen on a Windows Mobile device. It puts all the others to shame. It’s not just that the screen has an amazing resolution, it’s that the screen is vibrant and clear as day.The speaker volume in general could have been a little louder and the sound could have sounded a little fuller. Speakerphone was the same.

The third generation of mobile networks brings the convenience of broadband Internet to your mobile phone. Fast data transfer speeds give you quick, easy access to a world of audio and video streaming, Web surfing, multimedia messaging and email wherever you go.Calls came in and out with crystal clear quality. The ear speaker was plently loud and the party on the other end said we sounded like we were on a land line.

The Xperia X1 has all the HSDPA,3G,Wifi facilities.Our unit had the 850MHz/1900MHz US 3G bands so we were rockin’ over HSDPA just fine. In fact, web browsing was abnormally fast. We didn’t find much of a difference between browsing over Wi-Fi or HSDPA.While the device isn’t the lightest phone on the market, we think it’s build quality is almost second-to-none. Maybe even iPhone status.The sliding mechanism was fantastic even though the device isn’t a normal “flat” slider.
