My Phone of the Year 2009 is.. (Part2)

Continuing from my first Part of the My Phone of the Year 2009, i wanna give you a quick heads-up of what went down yesterday so far, here are the ranks from 9 to 6:

??

  • No.9 – Sony Ericsson Satio: a bug-infected SE handset with a great camera that sometimes appeared to have more issues than features.
  • No.8 – Nokia 5800XM: i already got a lot of response to this decision, keep in mind that this is based on my personal tastes and experiences, my choices might not go along with your thoughts, and they’re not supposed to do that. anyways, the 5800XM, despite having the best stereo speakers i’ve ever heard gave me a world of troubles, spanning from damaged speakers and display to a totally useless homescreen (unless you get some 3rd party app help).
  • No.7 – HTC/T-Mobile G1: The first ever google phone has sparked this Android love in me really well, resulting in eventually abandoning Symbian OS. But unfortunately the G1 was relatively unspectacular. Camera, Speakers, Battery Life .. nothing to really write a book about.
  • No.6 – Nokia N97: a feature-packed mobile computer, which some hate to death and some praise as Nokia’s savior. i’m kinda stuck in the middle. while i liked the form factor with its extremely solid slider hinge and the overall features, i found the keyboard to be extremely annoying, resistive touchscreen is a matter of taste (i’m clearly against it) and RAM/phone memory issues that shouldn’t be found on a flagship device, right?

So much for the End of my List, but now let’s find out who’s on top, shall we!? :)

Video: SE X10 Mediascape and Timescape

Here’s a juicy Video about the the Sony Ericsson X10′s new Applications Timescape and Mediascape, Part of the UX System they have developed for Android. Timescape is a new Way to stay in Touch with your Contacts, giving you Possibility to have all your Friend’s Activities in one Place, no Matter if that is Calls, SMS, Mails, Twitter, Facebook and more. Mediascape is something similar but for all your Media, both stored on your Device and online! More Goodies from the Vienna Presentation and some Thoughts about the X10 straight from Hell, later on!
