Sony Ericsson W995 is the company's top-ranking Walkman and its spec sheet is clearly set to justify this label.

Sony Ericsson W995 not only spares users the agonizing choice between Walkman and Cyber-shot. It has simply harvested all the high-end goodies and leaves nothing else to want. And all that skill is packed in a compact, solid and stylish body.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1
˝X1 is one
˝X1 is one of the biggest flop of 2008!˝
˝It may have been the most eagerly awaited telephone of the year... and it may well have been the most disappointing telephone of the year, too. Introduced in February with (almost) operational prototypes, the phone has only just become available in stores. Its “revolutionary” Windows Mobile interface was not only slow, but it also wasn’t any more functional than other operating systems from HTC, Samsung or Asus. And since there’s only one Windows Mobile model from Sony Ericsson, developments for the proprietary interface, quite naturally, are scarce. What was supposed to be the ultimate smartphone is at best only passable, and at worst a total failure.˝

My point of view - I love SE W995. It acts as both Cybershot 8.1 megapixel as well as Walkman! Who wouldn’t want that? And it’s symbian, thus applications can be obtained easily through downloading. But it would be great if it’s in QWERTY mode, just like Xperia.
I fancy SE Idou (360 x 640 pixels, 3.5 inches) because it has a 12 megapixel camera! But the downside is that, it would be great if it’s in QWERTY mode, just like Xperia, because i’m sure users will have a hard time pressing the letters on a touchscreen instantaneously.
I LOVE Xperia. I know it was out long time ago, but hey, i still love them. Word is that, Xperia is the best for some, but not to others, they think it’s the worst. Maybe it’s because Sony Ericsson is a first timer in inventing a Windows Mobile OS. That’s why. But i still love it’s slick-modern look. Xperia (800 x 480 pixels, 3.0 inches) is almost the same as HTC Touch Pro (480 x 640 pixels, 2.8 inches).
And HTC Touch Pro2 is coming soon too! Large screen (480 x 800 pixels, 3.6 inches), Windows Mobile OS, i like. But i don’t fancy it’s other design - the upward screen is held up prominently like those of Nokia N97 (coming soon too).
I want all 5! HAHA.
Out.
