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Android 1.6 is outdated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Outdated Android 1.6 OS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
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 runs Android OS 1.6. The Timescape application has its faults
And you must use a third-party app for Outlook calendar syncing
Lagging software
Very weak camera flash (practically useless)
Integration of social services that is not good enough
The X10i puts Sony Ericsson squarely back amongst the big guns of the smartphone market. It looks sleek, the Snapdragon processor is as always stunning and thank heavens they decided to drop Symbian. For a first attempt at the Android OS it’s an excel...

So where does the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 stand after the update? It didn't quite manage to take over at the top of the smartphone food chain, but to be honest we never actually expected it to. One year is a really long time in this business and understa...

Big 4-inch display, slim and lightweight (despite the brick-like appearance), easy to use media application (MediaScape), unique timescape application, turn by turn navigation app included, decent battery life, swift running UI
LED flash could have been more powerful, DivX/XviD support removed despite big screen and powerful hardware, average quality earphones bundled, currently runs on older Android 1.6
The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 sells for Rs. 30,000. As far as specifications are concerned, it has all the hardware that's packed inside phones in this price range. Phones like the iPhone 3G/3GS, Google Nexus One and upcoming HTC phones like the Desire...
Superb Looks & Design, Great Large Display, Very Good for Web Browsing, Camera Shoots Very Good Still Images, Fun to Watch Videos On
Sluggish UI, Mediascape Interface Doesn't Do Much, Call Quality & Battery Life Issues
At Rs. 31,799 in India, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 is priced similarly to the WinMo powered HTC HD2. It’s a tough choice between the two phones but I would give an extra point or two to the HTC phone on account of a better interface, better call qua...
The Sony Ericsson X10. A Device surely not made for the weak-hearted, but it has it’s Joys. The 4″ WVGA Screen is georgeous, the Build Quality is plastic but good, the Google Integration for Googleholics like me) is fantastic as usual on Android Phone...
Sleek looking handset, comfortable to use, Camera quality is quite good, Audio player is loud and clear, Mediascape and Timescape UI's are well designed and user friendly, Good battery life
New UI's tend to make the handset sluggish, No FM radio, Camera supports up to VGA resolution
Connectivity3G, EDGE/GPRS and Wi-Fi are the handsets primary modes of internet connectivity. The browser is as versatile as ever, a non issue as usual. Timescape handles Twitter and Facebook, but a Facebook for Android app is also on board for which a ...
The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 is company's first Android-powered device. But being first is not always a good thing. You have to face some serious initial expectations and justify them. That is the best case scenario. But obviously Sony Ericsson haven't re...
