SE Xperia X1 is a HTC Product?

[dreamcatcher]

I am still waiting for a source. I guess you missed my earlier post.

Now, you wont get a source to prove your point.I can show you a few blogs but bottomline is,HC just provided the technical bits.The fact that the XPERIA is produced in the SE factories is proof enough.The assembly and quality of materials is typical SE.

The panel interface etc. all designed by Sony Ericsson engineer themselves AFAIK.

If it would have been HTC, then wouldn't X1 have been running TouchFlo?

Though HTC has indeed helped SE in designing the phone, but its not that HTC has completely designed the fone as people over here are saying.

HTC is the ODM for SE Xperia. An ODM designs the product and produces it while the company that outsourced it gets to put its brand on the product. This is an internationally accepted business model. Its not that if Xperia does well SE gets credit or if it doesn't then HTC gets discredit.

The fact that Xperia is an SE product means whether the phone is good or sh!t.. blame goes to SE. HTC is only designing and also possibly manufacturing it. All the HP iPaQs, if I'm correct, are manufactured by HTC as well.

Compal Electronics is an ODM for Dell, HP and quite others. So all those fancy Dell/HP laptops you see are actually designed and manufc. by Compal Electronics of China.

BTW, Asus is the OEM for Apple (Macs!), Foxconn is the OEM for iPhone and iPod.

it is manufactured by hTC, or so the forum says...as given in my earlier link.
but why so much of a fuss...whom so ever it may be, it just got to perform well, that's all; cause ultimately that's what matters the most.

ROFL...For your kind info, Xperia is being manufactured in SE factories worldwide. Endgadgets post is just a rumour.

HTC just provded the technical details, even HTC did not own up to anything.Show me solid proof and then comment..not a "heard through a grapevine" comment.


HTC may have made SE a prototype to which SE have done the modifications.In today;s world no conmpany would sell a stake of their own.So stop talking rubbish.

Grab a copy of the latest issue of My Mobile magazine (September issue) and read the interview of HTC Chairman or Vice President...He has categorically accepted Xperia to be a HTC product...If this can't take you out of your ignorance, nothing else ever could...

I never denied that the XPERIA is not an HTC brainchild.Its just that the hardware is being manufactured by SE and SE have owned to it. HTC are the designers, and maybe the material providers, but the manufacturing and the last minute decisions are done by SE, as can be seen from their manufacturing plants. I hope i get myself clear here. Even the WM interface is SE's brainchild and they have a whole plant in North America that is totally devoted to WM.

Compal Electronics is an ODM for Dell, HP and quite others. So all those fancy Dell/HP laptops you see are actually designed and manufc. by Compal Electronics of China.

And that is why all of them have pretty much same set of features build wise.
