So Xperia isn't part of the Entertainment Unlimited range - which combines the best of both Cyber-shot and Walkman, or have they put the Entertainment Unlimited brand on the back-burner? It's not something we hear much of, Satio and W995 were the last EU device, were they not?

Naughty, xell

I suppose I, like Muhammad Oli, had a skewed idea of what the Xperia brand stands or is supposed to stand for. I think because of the high end first release that is the X1 most of us saw an ultra high end brand. Personally, I wish they could keep it at ultra high end levels cause the Xperia phones thus far, bar the minis and the X8, have been high end in every sense. The X2 was just an X1 rebranded with horrible software engineering.

This should make money for SE no doubt and it is good for them to give consumers something this cheap with good premium looks.

I was a bit disappointed to find this had a 3.2Mp camera because it certainly looks like a premium phone that should have a 5.0Mp. It's styling is good but I think need to rethink their designs. Apple's new phone has really impressed me with it's innovative high-quality materials and 3-piece stainless-steel chassis/antenna. Its design on the outer edge and seeing continually release 15mm thick, plastic fantastic models even in the mid-range is a turn-off for me. Shame, as I think this is overall a good effort from

Not sure why seem to have gone backwards from the days of the remarkably thin C902, T700 and T650.

I don't know how much it costs, but 3.2 mp can be a deal breaker for many, who want a "medium size X10".

Hi,
Thanks for all your comments. Both positive and negative. Rest assure that we work on addressing any issues or concerns you have with our phones.I briefly wanted to respond to some of the comments stemming from this post:
* With regards to Android updates. We have now confirmed 2.1 from Q3 and onwards. In addition to that you will get some really nice additional ux upgrade such as HD video and DLNA connectivity. You can be certain that we are working on implementing later versions of Android os into our portfolio. However we cannot/do not want to reveal our future Android roadmap at this stage due to commercial/competetive reasons. You will have to stay tuned on this blog for more info to come * Apologies. I am aware that we haven’t followed up on the post re smaller software update that Sumit did a couple of weeks ago. We will get back to you with more info on this very shortly (read very shortly)
* The processor speed for Yendo is 156 mhz. Thanks for spotting conflicting info on our web. We will revise.
cheers
Mattias

They seem to be all doing it with some new Android devices. Samsung recently released an Android device with onlt a 3 meg camera & my LG Optimus Android phone also has a 3 meg camera. Is this a way of making them more afordable or what. Although I do say my camera is actually good

It will be under 200€ when it launches. RRP in Germany is 219€. You can always subtract 15-20% from the RRPs to get the launch market price. This phone is dead cheap for its specs.
