Following is a sentence I read from a hardware review article:
Vincent was lucky enough to score some hands-on time with the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 in Barcelona this morning, and of course being our resident iPhone addict had his trusty Apple cellphone to slap down and snap some comparison shots. But how does the X1 really compare against the iPhone; it’s the comparison many will be making over the coming months.
What does the phrase 'score some hands-on time' mean?
I try my best guess that score in this regard means 'win'.
But I have no idea with the word 'hands-on time'
Top answer
score some hands-on time = have an opportunity to use [the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1] himself.
