WM Experts is an interesting site, and they sure do know about the stuff they write about. A short while ago, they published a preview of the XPERIA X1, and it looks like they are extremely impressed;
Overall this might be the best hardware I've ever seen on a Windows Mobile device. [...] The screen. Good god, the screen is really beautiful. Flush, bright, and very high resolution. [...] So yes, the hardware delivers. [...] They are [the specifications], in short, nothing less than top of the line.

That sounds bloody excellent, don't you think? Do me and yourself a favour and check out the highly positive preview of the X1 over at WM Experts.

Sorry to say this but the processor doesn't beat the iPhone tongue.gif. Nah but seriously, against the iPhone it's got GPS, HSDPA/HSUPA, 3.2MP camera, 800x480 px display (not multi-touch unfortunately sad.gif), full-featured Bluetooth and MicroSD which is awesome.

Might consider getting one depending on whether Apple will match it in the 3G iPhone and how much this will cost. Also I'm not so keen on WM, so there will have to be an Android port available before I do in that case.

Edit: Actually, 800x480 isn't a VESA resolution, so that sucks.

That sounds very sweet indeed! It might not be the most flash of features, but I thought this was rather delish:

"A “mini aquarium” where you could feed the fish and pester them. Even better - the different fish reflected the state of the phone. One fish changed colors if you had voicemail, another if you had email, and yet another told you whether or not the phone was on silent or vibrate or LOUD or whatnot. This panel was super fun."

Does it make any difference having VESA certification?

Ok, there are a few different interpretations of what constitutes WVGA but 800x480 seems to be winning out as it fits the standard widescreen monitor ratio of 8:5 (16:10).
I'm sure that it's a resolution that'll get a lot of support as it becomes more common.


Oh and you forgot that the X1 also has a proper qwerty keyboard over the iPhone as well tongue.gif
