Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 Reviewed - Not Really Worth The Money
Smooth and intuitive UI Much quicker compared to predecessor Unibody style look Great connectivity...Runs Android 1.6 Misses out on some apps which are not compatible Music player volume is too low Average...Maybe they have misunderstood the term 'Diwali fever' lol :D...Just look at his "Great connectivity and battery life" as GOOD...I can count many more bad points in those excellent iphones...
