Xperia Now Has Thumb Access Interface

24 Oct, 2008, 12:55 pm IST | Shayne Rana | Smartphones

With the launch of the Xperia X1 getting closer and closer (sometime towards the end of November) it seems like the handset is still undergoing a few cosmetic changes with the UI. Personally it all looks pretty good to me as the additions to the UI, at least from the images going around, are going to give the handset a much wider appeal.



The latest is a thumb optimized interface. Like most of the other higher-end WinMob handsets, for example, HTC’s Touch FLO and the Omnia’s quick access menu, this new system will allow users to completely negate the stylus option of input. Enlarged icons and options will allow users to navigate simply with their fingers.


I’m quite excited especially after the preview and I can’t wait to see what the finished product will be like, so stay tuned. When we know you’ll know. Considering the current financial situation let’s just hope SE can keep the price decently placed.
