The Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 : A Short Guide

Posted in category Uncategorized

Besides being a bargain among smartphones usually marketed towards the pricier end of the consumer electronics market, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 is an uncomplicated version of the existing X10. Amongst other things, this Android phone boasts an above standard touchscreen – 3″ 320 x 480. With 3.5G support and a 2GB storage card included in the microSD slot there is plenty of room for all of your downloads and apps. Other cool features include an FM radio, WiFi, and GPS.

As with most Sony Ericsson products, the X8 is one sharp looking phone. In fact, it has a much more appealing look than most Androids. The only real problem here is the plastic on the back cover, which has a very low-grade feel to it. Like most Android phones, the menu, home and back keys are placed directly under the screen. On the right side, you will find the volume control and the one-step camera shutter for quick access. The microUSB port, 3.5mm connector and power/lock key are situated along the top edge.

The battery is relatively powerful – delivering up to 5 hours 40 minutes of 3G talk time. Even though the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8‘s processor is not quite as fast as some of the higher end Android phones, its 600 MHz processor and 128 MB of RAM will still handle most tasks with ease.

The X8 is equipped with a 3.2 megapixel camera for still shots and video recording. Unfortunately, there is no flash or auto focus here, though the interface is very easy to use, so you can make the adjustments without too many problems. The images from this camera are much sharper than the average smartphone camera produces, something you will really be able to appreciate when you transfer your pictures and video to your computer.

While later versions of the X8 will include the Android 2.1 OS, first buyers of the phone will have to be satisfied with Android 1.6 until the upgrade comes out. With the Android Market crammed with applications ranging from video games to restaurant guides, the software for Android phones is wide ranging though, so its not difficult to ensure that all of your specific needs are met.

As with most smartphones, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 has its advantages and disadvantages. It delivers a multi-functional, yet compact device with standard design and usability. There is one major consideration, however, if in the market for a new smartphone. Its web browsing functions fall short of the competition; if internet capabilities are not high on your list, the Xperia X8 could be the smartphone for you.

Planning On Signing Up For Broadband?

Have you been thinking of adding a broadband connection to your home or changing your existing broadband provider? If so there are a few points that you need to think about.

Why Do You Need broadband – First you need to take your household needs into consideration. If you do not use the internet for much more than email and occasional searches then you do not need an expensive broadband package, some providers will even offer plans at a discount for casual users. However, if you or your household uses the internet constantly you will want a broadband service that offers unlimited bandwidth.

Where You Live – Once you have determined what kind of service plan is best for you it is time to find a provider. The area you live in can have a big influence not only on your service but the providers available. Some areas are without any cable connections, and some are far away from telephone exchanges, both of these factors can determine how fast your broadband connection will be. There are many websites out there that can help you find broadband internet providers in your area.

Equipment Required – You will also have to take into consideration the additional equipment you may need. For example, if your home contains multiple computers that all need access to the internet you may want to invest in a wireless router. Make sure it is a route that allows for wired ethernet connections so that you can connect both your wireless-capable and non-wireless-capable computers to the same network and provide them all with internet access. You can purchase a wireless internet card or wireless internet accessory for your desktop computer if they are not wireless-capable, however most laptops come packaged with wireless connectivity built in.

Fair Usage Policy – One last concern when it comes to broadband providers is fair usage policies. Some companies may monitor your data and bandwidth use and may limit your connection speed based on how much you download and if you are downloading often at peak hours. Such restrictions may take the form of limited speed or extra charges to your account. Some providers do this because a broadband connection is generally shared by many users who are essentially renting access to the connection and need to provide a fair way for everyone to get equal connection speed. Make sure you read the policies of a provider carefully before you decide to commit to them.

Motorola Milestone XT720 – It’s Out And It’s Good!

Motorola has updated their Milestone handset with the Milestone XT720. This latest version has some great new features, but is notably lacking the slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Without the keyboard, the XT720 is about 3mm thinner than the original, though its size and weight are about the same. Given how difficult the slide-out keyboard could be, it is unlikely that anyone will mourn its passing. The handset come with a 1390 mAh battery, which according to Motorola has a maximum standby time of 13 days and will allow 4.5 hours of talk time before needing a recharge.

The Motorola Milestone XT720‘s big advantage is its price. It is noticeably cheaper than either the HTC Desire or the Google Nexus One, both of which come with a 1 GHz processor. By comparison, the XT720 comes with a relatively small 550 MHz processor and 256 MB of RAM. This does not mean the phone is slow however. In terms of processing power and speed, it performs almost every task very well.

The XT720 has a great looking front display which features a full 3.7 inches and 854 x 480 pixel output. Motorola kept this feature from the previous Milestone model which makes it very easy to use and to see. The display itself might not be as sharp as what one would find in an HTC Desire, but because it is a different technology, it is easier to see the display when you are outside.

One of the best improvements that Motorola has made is the 8 megapixel camera. It now comes with a xenon flash and autofocus feature, a much desired improvement over earlier models. The outward appearance has also been redesigned; the XT720 has a much more appealing, sleeker digital camera look to it than the old clunky Milestone. It can also capture video up to 720 x 480 pixels, which can be played back over any compatible HD TV using the built in DVI port.

Motorola uses the Android 2.1 for the XT720′s operating system, which lets the user tap into the impressive array of Android software and the continuously growing Google App marketplace. The high resolution display makes a great venue for web browsing, which is easier with their included, highly efficient browser. Users will not be disappointed with multimedia options either, which include an FM radio and support for a wide range of file types, like WMA, MPEG4, MP3, AMR, and AAC. In addition, the handy 3.5mm audio output allows the user to listen to their favorite tunes with any standard pair of headphones.

After reaching overwhelming success with the Samsung Wave, Samsung is releasing the Samsung Wave 2 in order to capture a larger sector of the smartphone market.

Tired of the time and frustration of pecking long messages on full keyboards that can not keep up with all you have got to say?

And how you view your messages and images can now be controlled with a twist of the wrist with the Wave 2′s accelerometer that automatically rotates the screen from landscape to portrait. Navigating your way through the phone’s many features also becomes second-nature with the TouchWiz 3.0 UI.

And its 3-megapixel camera not only allows you to record SD video, but play back mp4 video and touch up images you take with an image editor as well.

Like most major smartphone manufacturers, Samsung offers its own social networking aggregator, similar to HTC’s Friend Stream, Sony Ericsson’s Timescape of Motorola’s Motoblur. Samsung’s Social Hub maintains all your contact details, email accounts and social networking services in one location for easy access. With just your Wave 2 in hand, you will be able to share a favorite joke with all your friends, manage your account information or see what everyone else is talking about. Social Hub means you can now view and respond to messages, check your social networks and send emails from multiple service providers without having to access each individual network.

The Wave 2′s display is a respectable 3.2″ screen for video and picture viewing; the 240×400 TFT LCD is capable of showing up to 256,000 colors. Most users will appreciate the built-in FM stereo to catch up on the latest music. However, if nothing is on the radio, the integrated music player can store and playback a variety of audio formats, including wav, MP3, and eAAC+.
