Is the Sony Xperia 10 as good-looking as you are (despite your receding hairline, adult-onset acne, and massive weight gain)? Rate this thread to express whether you think the Sony Xperia 10 is attractive. A higher rating indicates that you would even go as far to say that the Sony Xperia 10 is a beautiful phone.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

you like it or hate it. i like it, theres nothing better than a plastic back (i assume its plastic, right?)
no need for ugly cases making my phone even more thick.

i also like the missing chin, the navbar fills this place well. so the look feels symmetrical, sort of.
i found nothing annoying about the design.

this phone needs only a thin screen protector glass, then you good to go.

It has an aluminum back.

It has Corning Gorilla Glass 5, so no need for a screen protector.

Looks great in photos, can't wait to get it in hand.

I have it in hand and cannot tell. I have read different reviews stating it's has a polycarbonate, solid aluminum or a aluminum coated back.

Either way, looking forward to the xperia 1 as I enjoy the form factor than the pixel 3xl.

I really NOT recommend to buy this phone, because it's absolutely useless! After 4 month of continuous use, the phone produces various kinds of bugs. Quite often I unable to receive phone calls because the dual sim handling is poor. I often realise missed calls via operator message. Quite often the camera app unable to save a picture after it's triggered even if the phone is rebooted. "Stamina" battery saver makes more unstable the phone, it turns much less responsive, than "normally". This phone in use only 4 ( FOUR! ) monts, and the battery has to be charged twice a day despite the fact that it's not extremely used.
Even the materials used to build this phone are piece of sh*t, the blue painting has already went from the corners. The camera cover is made of PLASTIC, so it has already scrathed after a week of use.
What is also annoying, that the positions of the volume buttons. With this ratio of screen, it's pretty hard to use the phone with one hand, and it's difficult to push. Really funny that the phone has to be pushed to your face, because the position or poor quality of the ambient sensor lets to operate the touch screen while calling.
Summary, if you don't want to waste money for something that is only good for piss you off, DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!!

I used to love the old fashion line (SonyEricsson & early Sony Android devices, expecially Walkman), because there were build & sw quality behind the brand. Quick and useful phones, brilliant design, tons of cool custom made ROM (Cyanogen) in the past. Nowadays it's like sh*t for a lot of money, and there is nothing just a logo.

Don't worry, I've already changed (currently using xiaomi) . In my opinion a basic functionality of a phone is be able to make a call, but Sony could not provide this properly (at least this device). Poor housing, defective camera (even after restart), poor battery lifespan etc. I don't care the brand if a device is durable and suitable for a normal everyday needs.

Ericsson is past, Xperia is different state. If you are tasty man, you must love Sony. I bought it about 100$, almost new. In that case, everything is comfortable for me. Build quality i love, daylight cameras, sound, system, click voice, battery life is an average, it is one day, but for me it lasts from morning to evening. 10 Plus has better battery. And screen is not good, that's why you should try flagman model, if you have enough money, It costs much, expensive. What about xiaomi, it is only for less budget users, i don't like. You must not have a phone, which is not for you
