Video: Sony Ericsson's XPERIA X1 gets white-glove dissection

by Darren Murph posted Oct 22nd 2008 at 10:47AM

White glove delivery? Puhlease. Try white glove dissection, as in, the four part saga shown to us via the miracles of YouTube by gadget lover CyK1. Using a cautious approach, a pair of tweezers, what appears to be a guitar pick and a pair of delicate white gloves, he details the disassembly of SE's highly-anticipated XPERIA X1 in four captivating clips. Granted, two of the four actually show reassembly efforts, but you know you're not about to leave after just watching half of the show. Hop on past the break once your popcorn is ready.

Wake me up when the price will be similar to my iPhone.

Highly Ranked

Depends. Which iPhone are you talking about? I doubt it'll be at the 199$ mark. The Touch Diamond alone is 249$, and the Touch Pro (which is X1's direct competitor) is priced at 299$ with rebates and instant discounts. I wouldn't be surprised if it was priced around 299$ - just like the BB Bold.

They are in the UK! O2 sell them at the same price as the iPhone 3G on the same monthly bill payment
£100 on £35 a month contract

By the way, aren't we getting a US release date on November 3? Engadget, do you know if that's still happening? It better be! I'm still deciding whether to get this or the Touch Pro.
