This is the same as Racheal right?

yes... now is official... will be available in Q1 2010~

Hope they get things right this time. The previous few mobile don't have a good build quality and their price drop like a sinking stone. X1 is one of them.

well... satio is also not a good deal despite of the build quality and the OS~ I rather go for HTC than Satio~ Satio's camera also proven not the best quality among the phone in the market~

ya ... im waiting for it ... cny mayb can gt 1 ...

this phone is a turndown. No multi touch feature.

y they implement a 262k screen instead of 16M screen?? furthermore, it's not AMOLED right? a bit turn me down when i look at the lcd screen spec.. else it would be a perfect phone

ya...and i watch few youtube video on it
some of it show the phone quite lagging..doesnt looks like cam problem
but better wait for official release 1st...

*im not SE fan but SE with android make it interesting

coz its a waste of colors to put on a small screen

What is the target price given?

not sure thou... base on the spec list Se provided, mostly RRP is RM2.5k-Rm3k~ or more...

waste of color?? hmmm the color depth will be affected here.. when u wan view the pic,u can see the significant difference between 262k and 16M..i still think that it will be perfect to implement AMOLED as it becomes cheaper nowadays and offered lower energy consumption.

based on science, 256k colour is more than enough for the human eye~

human eyes perceive more color than any color gamut developed for computer.. hmmm however i do agree that any color above 262k will be hard to distinguish.. so 65k and 262k dun make big difference.. juz the color depth will be affected slightly

bro read http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archiv.../07/462187.aspx
and please comment again

finally the thread came to where its belong!!!

any prediction/rumours on its price??

thx for sharing such informative post..
ya, i do agree that the 16 bit and 18 bit gv us the 16M screen?? we pay high price for the phone.. i think it will be best if they can provide the top hardware.. even if the software doesnt support it.
i know that 65k and 262k didnt gv too much different.. but if 262k and 16M there is huge different.. try to switch ur tft lcd monitor to high color (16 bits) and true color (24bits), u will find that the difference is obvious.. u can compare it with 32 bits as the extra bits are used to represent transparent color.
by the way, if there is some other colour related post please share it.. i would like to know more.. thx ya..

For those who watched the video demos and noticed the lagging, note that it is very early prototype.. also, lagging is only in the SE custom apps ..namely the TimeScape and MediaScape apps.. the Android OS and the built in apps like google maps and browser are FAST. So, it is a matter of SE needing to optimize their custom apps.

Heard that X10 will eventually be upgraded to Android 2.0 (multi-touch and BT file transfer)

And then the screen color... it's not 16Mil or 256K ... it's 64K colors ..... see the answers straight from the X10 Global Marketing Manager:
http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/200...your-questions/

Not sure if this is Android OS 1.5 / 1.6 limitation .. as HTC Hero also has 64K colors.... but Moto Droid has 16Mil colors (Android 2.0)

This article was written in 2005 ... i think the article is not entirely applicable now

Basically the article explains that it's not efficient to display more than 64K colors because of memory usage, processing speed, LCD display technology etc.

But we are almost in 2010 now... we have 1GHZ processor, more RAM, graphics processor ... so why not

This post has been edited by hsyong: Nov 6 2009, 07:05 PM

wow, so it's only 65k colour? wat a disappointment.. i expect better 1.. at least AMOLED la.. come on.. 2010 ald, TFT ald outdated, y not change to something more energy conserving? hmm tat article posted by xpresside is informative.. but as hsyong said, we are ald 4 years after the post.. so i dun think 16M will drag down the performance of the phone. dun forget that the current high end smart phone is faster than desktop way back few years ago.. i had a pentium 2 with 333Mhz, bundle with 96MB ram, 4 gb HDD. now we got 1Ghz processor, 256MB ram and more than 4GB storage for phone.. so, as i said, y dun sony juz gv us the latest technology? remember, X10 is designed to be a high end phone.. juz my 2 cents, please shoot if im wrong..

Wanted to go for the X10 but after seeing the specs, have to rethink:

1. I think 64K colors is OS limited ? (HTC Magic, Tattoo & Hero also run Android 1.5/1.6 and only have 64K colors).... so if it is later upgraded to Android 2.0, can it show 16M colors?

2. No front camera (no video-call support for Android OS?) -- but still ok, don't use video call anyway

3. No FM radio

And at the moment, SE can't even get their specs straight yet (the official site states 16536 colors, the press release states 256K colors, the White Paper states 64K colors... now finally the Product Manager says 64K color)

The specs also don't show Digital Compass anywhere but today some1 from the SE developers forum said he tested and there is a working digital compass.

Well, wait a few more weeks for SE to sort out and release their complete specs, and also more details and explanations may surface.

well in fact, it is claimed that AMOLED has better power efficiency, better colour, brightness n response, and even lower cost(not sure tho, as it is new, maybe the cost is low, but the manufacturers sell it high?)
It's a waste to see phone manufacturers don't implement this technology in their high end phones.

agreed with u.. samsung is the 1 who try to push their AMOLED technology to the market, meanwhile other manufacturer still stick with the old TFT. If u remember back to 2002-2004, TFT was tagged at very high price, my 17LCD cost me 1k.. then nowadays the technology become cheaper.. i believe that if they mass produce the AMOLED the cost will definitely decrease.. wat i wish for 2010 is most of the smart phones are bundled with at least 800Mhz to 1Ghz processor, 256MB or more ram, and AMOLED.. Im more concern on the multimedia aspect.. imaging and music is the aspect i look into when i wanna buy a phone.. so a low colour screen is definitely not my cup of tea.

I had compared my fren HTC touch pro with 65k colour with my 3250 (256K) and N79 (16M), the difference is very obvious. someone may claimed that im over react with the color thingy.. but that's the thing i most concern so far..

I have been a faithful SE user since the day of Ericsson starting with T39 until now my G900. I have to say, thru those years i also see the decline of SE.

I have no issue with their feature phone but their smartphone (my G900) is... mildly put it... could have been better.

I read the first impression so far have been "generous". Nothing outstanding. The problem with SE these days i figure is they have more or less gone from innovator to follower.

I was looking forward to X10 since SE announce they will embrace Android. The look i gotta say is probably the sexiest of all Android available but I have my reservation. SE have been lately short of their own promise.

I read that X10 will be out Feb in UK. Won't be long before it reach us. I hope the price is not too high. I don't mind "experimenting" with X10 but i don't want to part my hard earn $$$ like i did with my G900.

well.. what i wish is... the built not ganna be like X1, the apps and the price too... had to flash the ROM to custom ROM just to enjoy the performance and interface =\

am using X1 right now, and the price is really drop like... hell!

Xperia X10's preview - simply gorgeous!

this video make u droll

hmm UK release on Feb 2010
Link!

The preview look so much better than the before. Interface look slicker. SE better do right with X10.

I have my reservation when i saw the video of X10 during the SE announcement but this preview look sexy. then again, what's the price??? HTC Magic with Celcom goes for RM1999 and that is with 12 mths RM148 (cheapest available).

Only nerds will worry about wasted bits :-) As to claims of slowdown, they are due to unoptimized APIs and slow hardware, mostly an issues with older devices. My primary concern would be how it effects the battery, if the difference is not so much might as well have 16M color.

If you just present a picture, people are not going to be able to tell the difference, but if you are using graphics programs or something and it has a color selector of a row of the same color subtly shaded, some of the colors are going to look the same on a 64K screen.

The difference between 64K and 16M is slight, but not quite undetectable (at least I could notice the difference). http://www.easyrgb.com/index.php?X=RESO

this preview is definitely much better than the ones shown when it was just announced, i guess SE has been working hard on it
but i still feel that it's a lil bit laggy with mediascape and timescape, and the zoom on web browser..
and do you notice that the screen is a bit unresponsive sometimes? the reviewer seems to touch twice or thrice to get something done, sometimes.
hopefully it'd get better when it's finally released, or maybe significant improvement can be seen if it get updated with Eclair 2.0.
The thing that i love most is, it has got flash(funny but yea, camera without flash is just disfunctional).

Well one thing to mention is, the color is limited by the software (Android 1.5), not the hardware. SE Xperia X10 is capable of 16m colors

is it as big as the iphone?

can't decide between x2 and x10

but most prob will get x10 just for android

It's bigger than an iPhone, having a 4" screen, rather than iPhone's 3.5".

X10 definitely has higher specs than the X2, but price tag would be high too, i think.

HTC Dragon and a pure Google branded phone coming very soon?
http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/11/17/thegoogle-phone/

read tat the Dragon/passion is expected to be announced on mid-dec..
2010 is certainly an interesting year for the mobile market

Oh yea... 2010 will be very interesting for Android, Maemo.. even WinMo (but WinMo 7 device may only be available after mid-2010)

2010 will see HTC Dragon, Nokia N9XX (Maemo with capacitive screen??), Google Phone?? and X10

Btw, SE has officially announced that X10 will be updated to Android 2.0 (16Million color display.. the current screen is capable but Android 1.6 supports only 65K)

The only problem is I need one NOW.. and there is none that is good enough

This post has been edited by hsyong: Nov 19 2009, 12:51 AM

well Hero is not too bad, altho the spec seems to be low compared to upcoming ones, but it is smooth enough for usages needed.
and it came to my attention some time ago, that Hero has 288MB of ram, i think it is a good thing, isnt it? as even X10(and many other major android smart phones) only come with 256mb.

2010 will be a competitive market, but i afraid it'll turn out to be like the computer market, the device you buy now will be beaten by another killer device in coming months...which has never really happened in smartphones' market.

yup, hopefully the X10 will even be bundled with Android 2.0~
The current one is getting better and better with more and more hands on video too.

now motorola droid already flooding US market and selling very2 well...
if they can make comparison with X10... its better...
at least i know which one I should go

I really hope SE will make X10 heck of a phone before releasing. iPhone have a lot of flaw but iPhone set the std so high. I really hope X10 will not be a case of the original Xperia. Hyped but eventually a letdown.

X10 need to redeem SE pride. Oh btw, the release date is not pushed back. Feb 2010 rumored date may not happen.

hopefully not lagging... tis can compare iphone already

plus some sweet looking apps then it can win over with iphone..
the current apps are just er...malu to show people

all of u really2 want this .. Google Maps Navigation works on X10

source?

and i doubt that's real, given that google's having a Nexus One, SE wont be stupid to coincide the name

so whos gonna win? nexus one or x10?

http://phandroid.com/2010/01/10/xperia-nex...n-changes-name/

the os is 1.6 or 2.x?

The earlier prototype run on 1.6. Not sure if they plan to upgrade to 2.0. Anyway, the 1.6 lag in the contract scroll, which we tend to use the most, so it isn't exactly a perfect phone.

is it out yet? wats the price?

Will it be possibe to have Ecclair installed officially in the future?

very smooth UI in all these videos.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pD4mUwDtFeo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZWXBrLqXkc

i tyhink im on my side with x10 no more satio due to no lags n smoother than iphone.. jus hope the camera is gud though

What's the point of having in built GPS chip and still need to use Google Maps web based navigation, Incur more data charges.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGe1Bc_aa4Q

http://www.youtube.com/user/gigazine#p/u/0/9GiG42v3XQA

Very smooth display transitions given the 1ghz processor speed. Lets see it give Apple a run for their money.

Yup. Too bad Android still don't have the support of Garmin XT

I'm so interested with this X10... but just want to know... how about the price?

Just read that this android phone don't support flash. What is flash exactly?

Doesn't support flash yet. You go to most 'beautiful/cool' looking websites with all sorts of colourful little things, those are usually Flash powered. Or, websites with small games or movie/music players, those are Flash too.

You may also search for Adobe Flash for more info.

This pricier phone will arrive here in any time..
And hopefully it's better than predecessors..
It's normal right?? Successors is like an evolution to reach perfecto!!
X10.. I can't wait for your 1st review..

RRP Price: RM2799


http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1262387&hl=

good good
2799 is for ori or ap?

of cuz Original

Bro.. sorry to say, everything u said on march... also milestone.. do you have any proof that say it will available in March

rm2799??
So pricey..

2799 sounds ok, since the initial predicted price was about 3k.. OMG
and xperia x2 is about 2699 now at sony

does android support 3G video call?

heard X10 suffer from lag

OS could be update via OTA or preinstall

X2 just released..

dont you guys think its over priced?

more expensive than goggle nexus, better buy N1 because have full support from google and you can OTA fast than the x10.

if the price is so expensive, going for N900 is better..
would it be a smarter choice?

i'm also consider between N900 and X10 , just heard that N900 selling RM2999 (ori) , for me X10 ~ 4 inch huge screen , 1GHZ processor , 8mgpx camera ..... i think i choose X10 lol !

that is what i heard too..
rm2999
but got QWERTY.

yeah got qweety , i use N97 b4 but seldom use qweety , so full touch screen is more suitable for me ....

the X10 and N900 scheduled to release almost the same time right?

yes u're right . dont forget motorola MILESTONE ......

x10 still waiting....
now fighting is N900 & milestone & i3gs (still DAI GO position)

This post has been edited by alfredtwl: Mar 3 2010, 05:27 PM

OS can update one, not a problem..
important to compare is the hardware inside, like the processor & graphic chipset etc.
this x10 great on it scratch-resistant screen also...

here is a 3d games from x10
