Thumbs up Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 RACHAEL !!!!!!





The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 is the manufacturer's first Android phone. It is rather high-end, equipped with a 1GHz Snapdagon processor, 4-inch TFT screen with a resolution of 480x854 pixels and an 8.1-megapixel camera with autofocus. However, its software features are just as impressing. What it adds to the Android universe is a personalized interface, called UX (from User eXperience). Basically, UX combines various entertainment and social media features.

Thumbs down no thanks!

based on the history of the X1 bug list ... this X10 will never get fixed
The X1 was slow at the 1st demo, they said they will fix it .. never happened ..
now, look at the video here:
http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/02/s...e-go-hands-on/

Very slow ... and based on track record ... not going to get fix, not in firmware 1, neither in 2, neither in R3A ...

Yeah .. this 'we must have our own shell, even if it sucks' approach bothers me.

1. It's ok for me however I just love the X1/X2 size!

2. and 3. agreed.

I'm not impressed by Android.
Actually, If I'd be ever tempted to change OS, I would just go Mac....

What do you mean :)
You believe in Android dominance?

As for some other thread you asked me: I rather tie myself with Microsoft
OS and Use Google anyway since they control their search machine,

than rely so much on Google only...

Of all the new OSes the most I like is WebOs by Palm, but have no idea
how this works.

I definitely choose WM which still gives the biggest abilities...

It's also funny to see on some forums how people get excited
about the Facebook and Twitter integration...

It's like I said - it's all about feel and "lifestyle" in the end, not features.

I can even extend this list:

4. No possibility to scroll through big pages quickly (like with optical button)
5. Ugly UI (too small icons, also seems to be very dull)
6. Laggy even in the browser, which is said to be snappy (loading the engadget site takes as long as with my X1)
7. Same battery like X1 BUT 1GHz cpu AND larger screen (battery drain!!!)
8. Is the phone still usable if I don't use Facebook and Twitter (or is just everything blank) ??

Comment: why didn't they simply put the snapdragon in the X2?

Nah .. it just seemed funny to me that someone hates phone which he does not have and which was just recently been officially introduced. If he said 'I don't like it' it would be perfectly fine with me. Never mind ..

As for Android dominance .. interesting question. Actually yes. Not in year or two. But WM is going to phase out. Apple is too closed. Web OS seems to be developing too slow at the moment. Actually I would like to see Web OS in this role as long time Palm OS user and developer, but Android for sure has bright future ahead.

As for X10, I like the form (no keyboard, large screen), it's just what I'd like to try, but it is no matter of life and death for me, so please don't flame. X1 keyboard is too clumsy and I don't use it that much, and the screen is small for me as my last PDA was Palm T5 with 3.9 inches. Also I don't like WM, since my last PDA was Palm OS. I kind of got used to WM, and I almost stared to like it as I started to develop applications for it (nothing public so far), as the process is really smooth (though not free).

What I don't like is that SE shell. I generally hate animation in UI. I could live with it if they were really snappy (like iPhone has for example). But if they take time, and are even jerky, now that plainly sucks. It's not good for effect, nor for usability, it's just stupid.

Eh .. sorry for long post. Peace !

did I say "everything" ? thought I gave 3 reasons why I hate it and that doesn't mean I hate the phone entirely.
