Xperia X2 – 2 More Vidz

Here are two more views from Sony Ericsson… I have to admit that though the hardware looks good, the software (their main panel on the device) does not appeal much. Perhaps the person demoing in the video himself did not know much about the functionality of the panel but from what i’ve heard about it, it offers way much more than what was shown. For now, I’m not thinking of giving up on my X1 just yet…

Same processor and RAM... But that's actually good news - probably the ROM will be ported to X1 eventually.

Haizzzzz......

So sad the design in not as appealing as X1. Then read on sony website that X2 is not able to do video call & no radio....

Seem that the internal memory still lags.

I may consider skipping this X2 and look into X3.... Will keep to my X1 till more updates are available....

I'm hoping that the info on the SE website is incorrect as regards the front facing camera and the radio.

If you look at any of the press shots then the front facing camera is clearly visible.

And in the SE-First youtube vid at around 2m45s the radio UI is clearly displayed (sorry youtube is blocked here so I can't post a direct link - the videos were posted here on Wednesday I think).

I have to admit that while I really like the X2, the radio would be a bit of a deal breaker for me - I posed the question at xperiancers.com, but the comment was deleted so I have no idea if they will clarify there or not.

SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 – A Quick Review

SPB has finally released Mobile Shell 3.0 and simply put, it is Amazing! Once installation completes and the shell is launched, you are taken to a sleeker version of SPB Mobile Shell 2.0 home with message information, notifications, calendar, and weather. This screen is known as the Professional Home screen. But wait! with the flick of a finger up the screen, the home screen is switched to the lifestyle home screen which provides a completely different look and feel. This lifestyle home screen is fully customizable allowing the user to place widgets and application launchers of their choice on the screen as needed. Apart from application shortcuts and widgets, the user can also add calendar entries, images, contacts, and more. Furthermore, the lifestyle home screen is split across three pages – flick to the right or left to change to the page – thus allowing you to manage similar widgets on the same page. Clicking on the lower-left button activates the SPB Carrousel – a 3D interfac...

Growing Panel – More to it… (Updated)

It turns out that the Growing panel has more to it than what was initially believed of it. It is not just a cool animated panel, but has a lot more to offer. First of all let me start off by complementing the animating panel. Having run it for a couple of hours now, the first thing i noticed was that it kept changing with time. The sun went down and the moon came up, and slowly made across the sky… and now the moon is almost out of sight and the sky a bit brightened, the sun should be showing up soon. (unfortunately i won’t be able to catch the sun rising as i’ll be asleep by then…) Next are the small insects on the panel. Bees flying by, worms crawling on the plants, fireflies in the air, and snails on the ground. Hit the bee or the ladybird and the phone buzzes, hit a snail and it hides itself inside its shell and stays there – hit it again to get it moving again, hit the firefly and it flickers… This is definitely a panel worth having! Now… the functionality on the panel. As e...

SE Waiting for WinMo 6.5?

Ok… so before i post this, let me point out that this is purely my speculation and not based on any sourced info. We all saw the leaked beta R3 ROMs a couple of weeks back. With the new Panel Manager, the Growing Panel, the Xtract game, and more. But by the end of May we saw the release of the final R3 ROM on SEUS and it lacked most of the features and applications that were found in the leaked ROM. And then SEMC announced a new ROM in June – this was after the R3 rom appeared on SEUS. So what is Sony Ericsson up to? My hopes are – and i know they are high hopes but who knows! – that Sony Ericsson is delaying the feature packed update because of Windows Mobile 6.5! We all know that WinMo 6.5 has been released to manufacturers… so what do you think? You agree with me? Or should i simply dream on?
