Cnet Review
The good: The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 features an interactive panel interface that lets you customize the smartphone to your wants and needs. The Windows Mobile device also has an attractive design and a full QWERTY keyboard.
The bad: Without U.S.-carrier backing, the Xperia X1 has an exorbitant price tag. The navigation controls are difficult to use, and the Web browsing experience wasn’t the greatest.
Cnet editor’s rating: 7.0

GSMArena Review
Looking back at Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 we think there’s one major question to answer. Now, no need to get defensive – the X1 sure is impressive. It goes even further to outperform its main rival – the HTC Touch Pro – in a number of areas and even offers slightly larger display and higher resolution.
However since the QWERTY keyboard is one of the key selling point and the Touch Pro has such great advantage there the choice between the two is really hard. And with the two month advantage that the HTC had we are quite confident that most users have already sealed a deal.
Still the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 is a really good device, the purchase of which you are unlikely to regret. It is unable to solve all the usability issues of the underlying Windows OS but if modding and tweaking is your thing, you can achieve quite good results.
And the thumb-optimized X-Panels are quite a treat adding the essential fun element to the XPERIA user experience. We wouldn’t by any means strongly recommend the X1 to non-Windows fans but they might still check it out – steps in the right direction are being taken.
Hopefully with the reviews above, you can have some detail performance of this phone. Is it worth to buy it, everything is up to you. Other than Xperia X1, wait for the next release of Sony Ericsson Satio, the next-great smartphone from Sony Ericsson.
