Finally! for the first time Sony Ericsson announced a device based on the Windows Mobile platform – the XPERIA X1. The phone is still in its early phases of development, but at least it will features Windows Mobile OS and comes with a 3 inch VGA display apart from a unique arc slider QWERTY keypad design.
“We have never worked with Windows Mobile (earlier) and we wanted to be technology agnostic from the consumer demand perspective. We didn’t go for Android as we don’t see a big benefit in creating the base software. Moreover, we are not making a Windows Mobile device, it is a Sony Ericsson phone and is different from other Windows Mobile devices,” said Rikko Sakaguchi, senior vice president and head of portfolio and propositions, Sony Ericsson in an exclusive interaction with CellPassion.
