Xperia X1, and X2, are not good designs, sorry to say that but it is true. Thats why X1 never has succeded, and the X2 will not
Why you will need keyboard separate, if the touchscreen features are improving?
Now we are talking with this X3.
It is like the Iphone, plus 8 Mpixel camera, plus Android.
I am an ericsson folk, and went for a Omnia, because X1 was not good.
A mobile smartphone must be small, thin, not heavy, and powerful.
Now I will go for X3.

On the contrary… These devices are usually considered pocket PCs, and not smartphones. On any device with a screen less than I would say… at least 6 inches in height (and at least half that in width for that matter), a hardware keyboard is necessary because an onscreen keyboard is simply not efficient. People prefer typing with their fingers, and not a stylus, and when it comes to onscreen typing that creates a three-headed problem from technical, hardware, and functionality stand points.
Technically? A stronger individual could easily damage their screen, or a person having a bad day for that matter.
Hardware-wise, an individual doing alot of typing using a stylus could easily scratch the screen.
Functionally? It’s hard to read a screen with fingerprints on it.
