Xperia X2 – Silver Caught on Camera

Sony Ericsson X2, though yet unannounced by the company, is making its way to the news now and again. And this time, it has been spotted in Silver. Exclusive pictures posted at jjlifeblog , posted here for your convenience. I own a Black Xperia X1 at the moment, now i’m sold on the Silver X2. (I just hope that the keyboard on this one goes through a makeover prior to release) Overall, the X1 looks better than X2, but hopefully this is not the final look’n’feel of the device.

Time to save up! Xperia 2 on the way…

Looks like it is time to save up… Xperia X2 is on its way with leaked pictures and now leaked specs of the device. I have to say, it is looking as if SE is ready to dominate the Windows Mobile arena with its X2! Here are the leaked specs, as reported by Pocketnow . 8.1mpx auto focus, VGA @ 30fps (MP4 HQ) 3.5 inch WVGA OLED (increased from 3.0 from X1) GPS, aGPS 3.5 mm headphone jack Accelerometer Faster processor 512 RAM Custom Windows Mobile 6.5 XPERIA Panels are modified with plenty of innovative features (PS3 functionality) Upgrading to Windows Mobile 7 is supported by Xperia panels Accelerometer, increased RAM, a higher resolution Camera!, and more… My eyes are all set on this one. Judging from the lack of announcements and all, this might not come out till the end of the year, or perhaps earlier next year. Good! Gives me time to save up! :)

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?

Is this the new Xperia: X2?

Well well… there have been rumors floating around since a while, and seems pictures are leaking onto the internet now. Looks like Sony Ericsson is getting ready for a new Xperiance. Personally, i love my Xperia and its metallic look, but this one looks promising too ( though only a 3.1 megapixel camera again! ): (Pictures taken from Engadget and fanklub.se)

Would you Give Up your Xperia?

If you were given the choice; give up your Xperia and get any new device… would you go for it or not? Recently i was made that same offer and i almost went for it, but surprisingly the Panel interface stopped me from doing so. I sometimes hate how the screen is recessed making it harder to get into the corners at times. I also don’t like the speaker on the phone at times. And similarly a few other things… But for me, the Xperia Panels experience is turning out to be more than what i would have imagined. No matter what mobile set i think of, Touch Pro 2, Acer with its new 3D Interface, etc. the Panel Interface turns out the winner over ‘em all. What do you think?
