What’s more, its smile detection abilities means your mates will always look their best, no matter how shaky your shutter finger.
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10‘s photographic abilities don’t stop there though: a stack of unique software options features help you frame, fire off and pick the perfect shot before uploading it straight to the web.

Get the best shot
To make sure you grab the sharpest, silliest shot of your friends spilling over each other at the bar, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 uses smile detection tech to sense faces in the frame, focus on them and pop the shot just as they break into a big grin.
It all works seamlessly with no need for you to do anything but point the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 at your friends. Just turn on smile detection and aim. The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 will place a box around any faces it detects, as well as a smile meter to show how close they are to being papped. Tell your mates to watch the birdie, and try to look photogenic.
As soon as your buddies pull their best Cheshire Cat impression, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 will snap a shot and add it to its photo library. The 1GHz processor inside the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 keeps things speedy too, so there’s next to no pause between shots, meaning you can just keep snapping.
Tag in no time at all
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10′s face detection smarts don’t end there: this Android phone also boasts clever face recognition skills. Once you’ve tagged photos of your friends, and linked them to details in your contacts book the Xperia X10 can figure out who’s in a snap from previous piccies and automatically tag them for you. If your friend is pestering you to show them all the snaps you grabbed of them on the way home, just pull up their contact information, tap the Infinity button and you’ll be able to see all the pics of their tagged mug instantly.
You can even geotag your pictures using the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10′s built-in GPS, so you and your friends will know where you were when the shot was taken, even if the excesses of the evening have blurred your memory. All it requires is a simple tick in the settings and you’re away: it won’t add any delay to your shooting speed, so you can keep on grabbing the group hug shots.

That razor sharp camera’s adept at catching video of you and your friends, and can start shooting within seconds of leaving your pocket. The camera flash works as a light in video recording mode so you won’t miss any antics in the dark, and video stabilisation will stop an attack of the wobbles. Once you’re done, you can upload the clip from the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 to YouTube in seconds, so your buddies can flaunt themselves in front of everyone online too.
