[Q] Why did you buy the Xperia X8?

---

I placed this in Q/A instead of general cause..... it's a question that's been bugging me since the beginning of all this X8 Modding stuff.

The question is Why did you buy the Xperia X8 when after, rooting and unlocking, a lot of people will want to install an HTC sense ROM or basically Clone the look of the HTC sense UI?

Why not buy the HTC Wildfire S? same proc speed, same GPU, TRUE DUAL Touch Capacitive screen, 512 ROM, 512 RAM (418 useable) and upto 32GB SD Support and Built in Android 2.3. and ofcourse SENSE UI 2.1.

BTW, this question is really valid only for those who bought their X8's after May2011.

That's actually a good reason. Price.... but, with the wildfire S which is less than double the price of the X8 you don't have to root and hence lose your waranty, and more than double the benefits of the X8. (RAM,ROM,True DT, Ginger ROM, etc)

Not dissing anyone or their decision on getting the X8, coz i love my X8 too and believe it or not, i like the original SE UI compared to HTC Sense. That was actually the reason why i got the X8 against the original Wildfire, and that was almost year ago. when the price of the X8 is actually more than the original Wildfire.


But my Question remains, with all the benefits of the Wildfire S, aside from price. Why get the X8?

and, Why put in Sense UI?

'Coz, to me it doesn't make sense...

.....Just asking.....

Cause it was Cheap
My friends told me that it is good
Can be over clocked highly D

Unfortunatelly it hasn't got so good camera, but it is good enough for me...

Because my gf want a phone that match my x10.. (^^,)

Very good of you

But i believe that yes, in the heart of it all, it comes to looks. Compared to the others, SE phones are probably the sexiest phones around, bar none.

i mean, if you didn't know the specs and you had the current superphones (Atrix, Sensation and S2) side by side with the ARC or NEO, what will you buy?
