I am trying to decide between buying the HTC Touch Diamond 2 and the SE Xperia X1....

They have the same specs(almost) despite the fact that the Diamond 2 is much newer...

They cost almost the same... Any thoughts on which one I should go for ?

Obviously keyboard and weight are the biggest differences, get into a shop and hold both in your hand. If music is important to you the X1 has the 3.5mm headphone jack, TD2 does everything through the mini-usb connector so requires an adapter to charge and listen at the same time.

Keyboard, I tried the X1 after a Samsung i600 and BlackJack II and didn't really like the feedback and width of the SE keyboard. It was too wide for me to thumb type as quickly as I could on the Samsungs.

If you want to use the touch screen a lot I found the slight bevel the X1 has to be a pain to get to the corners, and had to get the stylus out quite q bit.

Hope that helps..
