Sony Ericsson unboxes the X10

SE X10Sony Ericsson’s X10 looks almost too good to be true on paper – aside from the version of Android it ships with, 1.6. With a Gig of internal storage, 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, 4″ 480 x 854 screen, and SE’s Nexus UX (I hope they rename this), it is certainly set to hang with the top Androids on the market. However, when I got to play with one in a private meeting at CES, I was disappointed by a non-responsive screen that felt cheap and even plasticy. Then again, those were running 1.5 and the units out on the show floor, which I did not see, were running 1.6 and inspired a positive reaction from everyone I spoke with about them. Time will tell. I hope I’m wrong about the lackluster touch screen. Looks like I may have called one detail pretty early on though. Video after the break…

Noah unboxes the Cliq XT

The Swype-equipped T-Mobile Cliq XT should be launched tomorrow running Android 1.5, but there’s still no *official* date on the calendar. This one features MotoBlur, Flash Lite, and a 5 MP cam. I’m sure we’ll be covering price and other features tomorrow. For now, check out an unboxing and hands on from PhoneDog.

Legend unboxing and first boot

legendSlashGear recently got their hands on HTC’s follw-up to the Hero, Legend, and you can check out a slew of images of the two devices sitting next to one another over at their site. As a fan of the original design, I have to say that I think Legend is incredibly sexy. Had it the specs of the hotly anticipated Bravo (Desire) I’m not sure I could choose between the two, given the option. Unfortunately, I won’t be burdened with making that choice any time soon.

Two videos – unboxing and first boot – after the break:

Google’s Nexus One Desktop Dock: unboxing, first look

My first impression of Google’s N1 Dock? It’s pretty sexy and functional, though I anticipate reader complaints about the fact that it doesn’t allow the user to watch movies in landscape or transmit data. I haven’t even used it overnight yet, so I’ll reserve further judgment for a few days.

Nexus One, Unboxed

Always plan before you post. That’s my lesson for the day. I approached this video as a PhoneDog unboxing because, though I had seen his Nexus One hands-on, I didn’t know Noah already unboxed this phone over at PD. I even uploaded the video to the PhoneDog YouTube account. Ah well, I’m not about to scrap it now, so just substitute the word “Phone” with “Droid” whenever you see/hear it, and pretend this all went exactly as planned.
