Sony Ericsson has finally announced that XPERIA X1 would be launched on 30th Septmeber. The phone was earlier expected to be launched by the end of 2008 so its a very big news for all Sony Ericsson fans out there.

For those who don’t know much about this phone let me tell you that its a horizontal slider phonewhich is based on Windows Mobile 6.1 Opearting System which also makes it the first Sony Ericsson phone featuring Windows Mobile. 

The phone has got three-inch *touchscreen* with a QWERTY keypad, the cool thing about its touchscreen is that it slides out in an arc. That is something new !

Alright, so this phone has got a 3.2 megapixel camera and it records video in 640×480 resolution in VGA quality at the rate of 30 frames per second, so cool. It has also got a front facing camera for videoconferencing. 

This phone has got almost every connectivity option you could think of:
mini-USB; wireless LAN 802.11b/g; Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, FTP, and HID; EDGE; and quad-band GSM, UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA, and HSCSD

It has got 400MB internal memory which can be expanded upto 16GB using microSD cards.

So, that all I have got for you for now on this super-cool mobile phone by Sony Ericsson, would come up with much more once its out of the box.
