Super phones: Nokia N96 vs Samsung G810 vs Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 vs LG KF700

Sony Ericsson Xperia X1
Unlike anything Sony Ericsson has done before, the Xperia X1 takes its smart phone portfolio in an entirely new direction. The X1 is a Windows Mobile touchscreen device with a slide-out Qwerty keypad and a proprietary UI that lets you access apps in a finger-friendly way.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 has a jamboree of features, including a 3.2-megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth, Windows Media Player, 3D game support, FM radio, Internet Explorer, RSS feed reader, Wi-Fi, GPS, HSDPA, a microSD slot and 400MB of internal memory. Compared to the other devices it stacks up well, but be warned -- the Windows Mobile 6.1 interface might not be as user-friendly. No exact date has been set for launch, but we think it will be out late 2008 or early 2009.
