guys ok ang xperia meron na ako nyan from london kaso d pa open line international plan ang gamit ko ngayon astig and xperia sa lhat ng aspect i want to open line my xperia…guy any idea about it???

aki · 16 years ago

i don’t kno where to find the document viewer. may file manager ba toh? its so confusing. first time to use an android. ok naman di nag lalag. kasing swabe ng iphone 4 at 3gs. pero sanay kasi ako sa features ng p1i.nahihirapan ako mag access sa files ko for bluetooth transfer. pati web browsing di pa supported ng globe at mms, maporma siya. worth yung looks sa price. may mga applications na kaya toh tulad ng sa iphone? mejo mahirap magtex sa keyboard. ive got big fingers pero mas nadadalian ako mag touch sa iphone.ok camera pero di auto matic light. maganda sounds. 3.5mm slot kaya ok sa mga headset,3500 pa open line. grabe ang mahal.pero parang mas gusto ko nokia n900. or xperia x10 mini para may qwerty keypad. maganda timescape. sosyal dating. pero hinahanp ko talaga file manager. di ko alam kung asan o pano ma access to change file names or send via blutooth. maganda screen resolution at backlight. malinaw sobra. basta mukhang mamahalin talaga, parang di mag depreciate. 30k pa rin ata sa mall up to now or 32k

LEEMAR · 16 years ago

EX-SE_fan · 16 years ago

hmmm,, which is better OS? android? WinMo? or Symbian? what are their differences? i think,, Omnia HD is much much better,,, but im thinking to buy this unit if Omnia HD phased out… its so stylish!!!

Evill · 16 years ago

@Rigel Kent: How much did it cost you? Nag-a-accept ba ng deferred Credit Card payment yung binilhan mo? How’s the performace naman? Kasing smooth ba ng Iphone 3Gs? :) Di nagla-lag?

Rigel Kent · 16 years ago

Just got my X10 And its Pretty AWESOME! Needs a bit of adjusting in using the keypad though. But nonetheless, a wonderful experience.

clyde · 16 years ago

pathetic se! milestone is way better in every aspect… wake up se folks whats all this cheap plastic???

Gams · 16 years ago

The X10 is beautiful inside and out.I’ll save money for it.Good job Sony Ericsson.You did it!!!

Josh Matignas · 16 years ago

I wonder how the timescape works.

markmarcelo0210 · 16 years ago

Darn! Its expensive! I won’t buy that just to have the Android experience. I hope they Sony Ericsson could come out with a touchscreen phone with an affordable price.

villadeorotagaytay · 16 years ago

a sleek phone for 32,500. Me want that. lol

dee · 16 years ago

been waiting this for ages hehe, the first 2 xperies had a lot of lag to death ui. I hope this android would keep their market share up. This is cheaper than the introductory xperia before.

Ive been always a follower for sony phones which started on their k series and i never looked back no nokia. I still have my p990 until now for 4 years

i hope the android os can be upgradeable though ;)

rotavap · 16 years ago

the units are for delivery to retailers this week. a few more nights of anticipating! you can call the SE hotline at 7891860 and they sms you when and where it will be available.

Xperience · 16 years ago

Saw the x10 demo unit @ the north edsa shop… This sales lady had it hanging around her neck. Saw a Vivaz in Trinoma, it looked really beat up already and the video recording did not work…

Dee · 16 years ago

Looked for it over the weekend but no luck.. doesn’t sound like its actually released here as yet. Your right… sales people had no clue.. kept saying “no but.. we have x2!?” If anyone see it, post it here! like to check it out.

jake · 16 years ago

is it available already? where?!?!? I went to SE glorietta today and they dont have it yet. the sales person doesnt even have a clue when it will arrive…

@Xperience which branch have a demo unit???

Xperience · 16 years ago

Same here… Most of the sales people were even clueless about it except for one who said they were expecting it but deliveries have not arrived. She had a white demo unit… I played with it, wanted to run away with it…

Jay-r · 16 years ago

Looked around the glorietta,park square and greenbelt on Saturday, march 27 but no sign of the x10.has anyone actually seen this model in mall retailers in metro Manila?

symbiandreamsdotcom · 16 years ago

@Sir Abe
How did you resize that YoutubeVid? Sa settings ba before mo ecopy ung embedded codes?

Paul · 16 years ago

@Jon

Sony-Ericsson says the software will be updated when it’s officially released (or released again) in the second quarter.

Here’s hoping for Android 2.1!

aedos · 16 years ago

I waited so long for this. But theres just so many android phones being released now. Im confused. Will i be able to upgrade the OS later? Yuga which of these android phones should I buy??? im an SE fan but i find that samsung galaxy a little good looking than x10. Any suggestion?

Jon · 16 years ago

Too expensive for an “outdated” Android phone. Specs looks nice though. If it were running 2.1, that would be better. However, I find the interface, though “cool” looking with all those 3D effects, kinda distracting. IMO, it isn’t functional in actual use. Kinda distracting in most cases. With such effects often used, it really raises the possibility of it becoming sluggish over time, I assume. Nice try though.

MobilePinas · 16 years ago

nice specs, 1 day lang pala ang pagitan ng release nito worldwide.

symbiandreamsdotcom · 16 years ago

I will not get this, but instead I will get for Sat**. Android 1.6 is not a big big choice for me and only the UXP are just the temptations.

32k with Android Donut? Oh comon..I can’t just afford it now. ;D

Lucien Tiojanco · 16 years ago

I’m really not convinced. Sony Ericsson has continued to fail the market for at least 2 or 3 years now.

Also, why stick with an old version of an open source operating system? They got stuck with Symbian UIQ before and now this? They really need to up their capability to catch up with OS’s.

What do they intend to say when Samsung Galaxy S comes out with it’s more updated Android OS, significantly superior hardware, and better SDK support?

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 16 years ago

@migs – yup, the first Xperia X1 was about Php42,000 when it came out. Possible that Android saved a couple thousand from WinMo, plus re-adjusted due to price points from other competing handsets.

Carlo · 16 years ago

Remember the times when those specs were found on desktops? ahh mobile phones have come a long way

Miguel · 16 years ago

If I recall correctly, previous Xperias and high-end SE phones costed more — so is Android bringing the prices down?

Paul · 16 years ago

Looking at the other demo videos on the internet, the interface is _very_ jerky. Especially when it tries to load the updates from facebook, twitter, etc into its 3D-esque status viewer.

Great idea, not-so-great implementation.

Giogagz · 16 years ago

wow same introductory price ng satio. Sana hinintay q to kasi nakabili na me ng satio. But I’m so disappointed on my satio. Overpromise and underdeliver ang satio. Hintayin q muna feedback ng mga tao qng musta performance ng experia x10. Astig kasi ang features niya.
