Really looks like a carbon copy of X8. They should release this instead of X8 and Yendo IMO. But it doesn't matter how I hate this, it will still surely sell in the target markets basically because of the
branding. That means, fooling us, the citizens of the emerging markets which was targeted by the product, and it's kinda insulting. But then, nice move
. Hope it won't fail like what happened to X8, X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro.
I just hope that the
application will be cracked then ported to other phones.

But doing this releasing a phone with the same features as the x8 in a new phone with another badge on it is embarrassing for
And to me they are not competing hard enough in the budget segment compared to other manufacturers. If you look at HTC budget Android devices for instance. They all feature a decent camera of at least 5 meg with flash & AF. They also have better specs inside yet at a decent price. This imo is shameful for
They are great in the mid to high end but
budget offerings are terrible lately

Yes, it feels shameful for
to do a
carbon copy of X8. And yes, maybe the copied a better phone like X10 Mini. But the thing is, they should come up with better specs and design than copying a previously released phone (feels like reincarnation of the K750>W800; K550>W610 times).

Not sure but in all honesty you might aswell just go buy the x8. I think the x8 is a decent device its just releasing one the same is silly.

Wow,it beats the Motorola Droid
Thing is I love the design of the x8 & especially the white one & it's a decent performing phone for the price(currently £79 in Phones4U) It has a nice screen & decent features if a little laggy sometimes. But the Walkman version is just money wasted imo by
I wish the x8 had that music player widget though

On the contrary, it's easy money. Since it's same phone as X8 I doubt they have spent much money at all on this one.
