Runs Android 1.6
No upgrade for a whileLots of plasticCustom UI is an acquired taste
It’s only running Android 1.6
Which is a nonstarter for me
The custom UI software makes it extremely sluggish
Unlocked pricing only at this point
Which is way too expensive considering the competition
I hate removing battery to change microSD card
No multitouch support
Android 1.6 is outdated

Do Not Buy
Middling sound quality in voice calls. Short battery life. Uneven Timescape performance. microSD card slot hidden behind battery.
Slow. Old version of Android. Clumsy Exchange and social-networking integration. Bloatware.
Lacks multitouch
Noticeable lag
Outdated Android 1.6 OS
No HD video capture
Slow performance
No multitouch
Custom UI hurts much more than it helps
Initially stuck on Android 1.6
Rivals in a similar price range sometimes more compelling
Typical smartphone battery performance.
Despite the inclusion of a 1 GHz Snapdragon processor
The X10 can at times prove rather sluggish especially when auto-rotating.Look and Feel...
Poor battery life
Mediascape and Timescape
Keyboard takes some getting used to
Freezes occasionally
Slow touchscreen response.
No upgrade for a whileCustom UI still lags
No multitouchToo pricey given competition
No multi touch
No offline charging possible
Troubling data entry problems. Sony skin can get overwhelmed for heavy Facebookers and Twitter friends. Ancient Android version (1.6) installed. Still suffers from a few performance stutters here and there
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10's data performance was spotty. The Timescape application has its faults
You must use a third-party app for Outlook calendar syncing
And the landscape keyboard doesn't work in the messaging app

Sleek design, huge screen. Mediascape and 8GB memory card. Solid web browsing experience
Timescape needs refinement. Some performance lag. Not the latest version of Android. Standard smartphone battery life
Sony Ericsson expands on Android's excellent web browser with its huge 4-inch screen real estate and a first-class multimedia experience, but Timescape needs improvement....
