Reviewers Didn't Like

  • Sharpness and dynamic range issues
  • Troubling data entry problems. Sony skin can get overwhelmed for heavy Facebookers and Twitter friends. Ancient Android version (1.6) installed. Still suffers from a few performance stutters here and there
  • Lacks multitouch, Noticeable lag, Outdated Android 1.6 OS, No HD video capture
  • Slow. Old version of Android. Clumsy Exchange and social-networking integration. Bloatware
  • Poor battery life, Mediascape and Timescape, Keyboard takes some getting used to, Freezes occasionally, slow touchscreen response
  • Poor virtual keypad, no FM radio; short battery life
  • No multi touch, no offline charging possible
  • LED flash could have been more powerful, DivX/XviD support removed despite big screen and powerful hardware, average quality earphones bundled, currently runs on older Android 1.6
  • Sluggish UI, Mediascape Interface Doesn't Do Much, Call Quality & Battery Life Issues
  • It’s only running Android 1.6, which is a nonstarter for me, The custom UI software makes it extremely sluggish, Unlocked pricing only at this point, which is way too expensive considering the competition, I hate removing battery to change microSD c
  • Custom UI hurts much more than it helps, Initially stuck on Android 1.6, Rivals in a similar price range sometimes more compelling, Typical smartphone battery performance
  • Android V1.6, Average camera output, No FM radio
  • New UI's tend to make the handset sluggish, No FM radio, Camera supports up to VGA resolution
  • Timescape slows down if overloaded with feeds, Lack of physical search button, Bulky
  • Despite the inclusion of a 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, the X10 can at times prove rather sluggish especially when auto-rotating.Look and Feel
  • No multitouch support, Android 1.6 is outdated
  • Lagging software, Android 1.6, Very weak camera flash (practically useless), Integration of social services that is not good enough, Interface elements that need finishing touches, Lack of DivX and Xvid support
  • May be a bit big for some users; Timescape interface nice but limited in function; expensive compared with similar models from other brands
  • The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10's data performance was spotty. The Timescape application has its faults, you must use a third-party app for Outlook calendar syncing, and the landscape keyboard doesn't work in the messaging app
  • Problematic flash. Face Recognition failures. Runs old version of Android
  • Android 1.6, AT&T’s Orwellian Walled Garden, Rating: Do Not Buy
  • No multitouch capabilities, Battery performance exceedingly poor
