The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Android phone was first released in last November. It has already been approved by the FCC for use on AT&T’s network. This smart phone is AT&T’s latest Android phone which runs Android 1.6 Donut and is now marketed both online and in AT&T stores.
The cell phone features Sony Ericsson’s Timescape and Mediascape applications. Timescape lets users have Facebook, Twitter, email and messages all gathered in one place so they don’t have to open different applications to see what’s going on. So Timescape is a messaging application that let users access all of their communications in one place. While Mediascape stores all music, videos and photos online or in the phone. Therefore, it is a media management application that lets users more easily find and access their media. What’s more, multimedia is accessible from several sources, such as PlayNow, Youtube or the phone memory. This prominent feature makes you stay up-to-date and looks so cool on your social networks. The smart phone has a black body and this classical color may be favored by both youngers and grey-haired people. Besides, it has a 4-inch WVGA 480*854 Pixel touchscreen display which is scratch resistant. I like this smart design for it can protect the big touchscreen from unnecessary scratch, especially when you scratch the screen carelessly. Another feature is it has an 8.1MP camera that supports geo-tagging, face/smile detection, image stabilization, auto-focus and flash. Having this smart phone in hand just like having a digital camera. You won’t miss any beautiful scenes by using this phone. Other features like 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 3G, inbuilt GPS, WiFi, web browser and Bluetooth with A2DP. In terms of memory, the handset has 8GB on-board memory and a MiscroSD card slot for adding up to 32GB. The X10 is a high-efficiency phone which uses 1500 mAh Li-Polymer battery and is good for up to 5 hours of talk time and 11 days of standby.
In a word, the refreshed design and host of good features make this smart phone a very good option if you’re looking to replace your old one. Now AT&T is selling it for $150 on a 2-year service plan. While it is also available from Sony stores for $130 with another agreement. If you’d like to wait for another week, there will be a surprise waiting for you. You can get it at Amazon for only $49.99 on contract. So what’s your choice?
