Sony Ericsson Experia X10

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 is more than an Android smartphone, it’s a true media phone too, neatly marrying Android abilities with best in class photography, movie and music skills. In Android phone circles it’s rare to find a true media phone, but the Xperia X10 carries off its entertainment abilities with aplomb.

From its Mediascape features, which organise all your photos, music and videos to its gorgeous 8.1 megapixel camera, complete with smart photography features and video recording.

And then there’s the Xperia X10′s Timescape function, a neat bit of software that automatically corrals all your communication into one place. You can easily skip back through time to catch up with previous confabs, either seeing your mobile life as it panned out in chronological order, or by specific contacts.

Best of all, Timescape integrates with Twitter and Facebook, as well as the Android phone’s e-mail and text messages. That means it’s easy to follow conversations with your friends, whether they take place on social networks, through SMS messages or e-mails.

All those features come wrapped in a slick shell, with Sony Ericsson slapping a gigantic 4 inch capacitive touchscreen up front. It’s large, and responsive, and begs to be touched. This truly is one of the most tactile Android phones yet.




Can the 4-inch titan beat down its Android rivals, or is it just a slick looking paperweight? Read our definitive Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 review. Read more
