Im been looking for a new mobile to maybe replace my 14 month old Sony Ercisson Elm that I have been 98% happy with and fanced this mobile. As come July I will have enough 02 rewards to get the phone for half price.
http://shop.o2.co.uk/mobile_phone/pa...son/Xperia_X8#
The 02 magazine says it comes with FM radio but the 02 site dont say if it has FM radio or not and also dose it have the Sony trak ID thing on it that I use now and again on the Sony Elm.
Anyway is it worth thinking about getting it to replace my 14 month old Sony Ericsson Elm.
Even this moblie looked ok http://shop.o2.co.uk/mobile_phone/pa...a%20X10%20Mini
Phone I want has to have wi-fi and mybe FM radio. My last two mobiles have been Sony Ericsson.
I also want to stay on 02 pay and go.

I'm happy with mine for the money. Most of the reviews I've seen were written before it was updated with 2.1 (mine came with 2.1 in February, I didn't have to update). It does everything I want in terms of applications, speed, browsing and email. Definitely 98% happy with it.

That said, there are better phones around for similar prices. The San Fransisco and the Wildfire seem to be better and Samsung have made a couple of comparable phones in the price range (Galaxy Apollo and Galaxy Mini for example).
