Comparisons Featuring Sony Ericsson Xperia X1
Short Review
- The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 features a compact design with dimensions of 110.5 x 52.6 x 17 mm and a weight of 145 grams, making it portable yet sturdy.
- Its 3.0-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 311 ppi.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7200 chipset with a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 256MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
- The rear camera is 3.15 MP with autofocus, capable of recording video at 480p, while the lack of a front camera limits selfie options.
- Battery capacity stands at 1500 mAh, without fast charging or wireless capabilities, which may require frequent recharging.
- Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, the software experience is dated compared to modern standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC support.
- The device is available in Solid Black and Steel Silver colors, but does not feature water resistance.
- Overall, the Xperia X1 combines a unique design with basic functionality, suitable for users seeking a simple smartphone experience.
- Special features are limited, reflecting its 2008 release.
