Posted in: Xperia Software, Xperia X1, tags: browser, skyfire, x1
The free downloadable mobile browser for Windows Mobile and S60 called Skyfire has been updated to version 0.9 and now includes WVGA and WQVGA support which means it can finally be used on the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1.
Skyfire claims to give it’s users:
a web browsing experience exactly like PC browsing. For the first time ever, on your phone, you can watch any video, connect with friends, listen to music, shop, and browse the web using the full-featured PC versions of your favorite websites. With Skyfire, mobile browsing just works — speedy page loads, full video, images and audio.
The browser has been applauded for it’s ability to play Flash video and with this update comes the addition of a “real-time activity wall”, which gathers RSS feeds along with access to Facebook and Twitter. There are various feeds preloaded into Skyfire and more can be added easily.
You can download the Skyfire browser at the official website here and the demo video of Skyfire in action is posted below above.

Well, I do think the features of the browser are great, but it seems that they only made it “support” Xperia X1, but the resolution of the browser itself is still low. For example, all the buttons and icons are blurry, and texts it displayed on webpages you can clearly see the PIXELS, due to the low resolution. I can’t find any option or settings to increase its resolution.
And SHAME ON SKYFIRE, go look at the official website…..

It says that skyfire has varified X1
But they spelt “XPERIA X1″ as “EXPERIA X1″
I suppose it is easier to pronounce with Experia but i don think that’s the official name at all?
Nice post. I learn one thing on completely different blogs everyday. It should all the time be stimulating to read content material from different writers and observe a bit of something from their blog.
Youre so right. Im there with you. Your blog is surely worth a read if anybody comes throughout it. Im lucky I did because now Ive acquired a whole new view of this. I didnt realise that this issue was so important and so universal. You certainly put it in perspective for me.
