My opinion > It's Superb phone i have ever had ! But SE Service in Very BAD !
You may add this option also...

It's a nice phone to mess around.
It's pretty cheap (beside x10)

Best phone for less than 150€!!! However, SE made horrible job with software... Fully working AOSP 2.1 would be perfect in this moment

Thumb Up:
- Price
- Size
- Basic funcions (email, browser..)
- Perfect if you want (slower) functions of a best performaces (and hi price) phone
Thumb Down:
- Battery
- >>> M U L T I T O U C H <<<
- Front Camera (to keep phone price low, I guess)
- SE Interface (replace asap with LauncherPro, ADW Launcher or similar..)
- SE Upgrade (At the moment no upgrade to Android 2.2 or greater scheduled)

I agree with member above me.

X8 is the best entry level android, cheap phone with HVGA screen, other type in the same price range give you phones with QVGA screen, 3 MP camera is fair enough, better than 2 MP from Samsung I5500, Eclair is good enough for me, just need to root it and enable App2SD make Froyo can be forgotten. Can play many games without lags, slightly smoother than Samsung I5500. The drawback is no multitouch, Samsung Spica I5700 multitouch can be enabled via SamdroidMod, but there is no multitouch too in Samsung I5500 after Froyo upgrade, so I'll be satisfied enough with dual touch, hope this is coming soon for X8. And there is no navigation key that made pain in the ass for me when editing text in messaging and browsing.
Sorry for my bad english...

Not a very good poll.

really!?
what do you want me to add or delete?
the thing is....i bought the phone with the hope that "hey, it's android! i will get updates regularly and will have the latest version unlike wm 6.5!"
but SE really disappointed me!! soo.....i started this one to know whether other people also think the same or not!

Hello,
As someone once post here my opinion about the X8 is like love/hate relationship.
There is times when I really love my phone and times when I really hate it.
But for it`s money it`s great phone.
And if you never use Android in my opinion it`s easy to use this phone.

The fact I can vote for every option at once shows that it is bad. Also the options are too bias. A simple "I like this phone"/"I don't like this phone" would do.

very nice phone,just waiting for froyo roms by racht...

Is's so cheap~

It's a Great phone for it's price, It's beautifull, really well designed compared to other devices. It's solid and SE quality made. In Hardware we can't really complain, like I said, for it's price... In Software, well good... except, what we all know, BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE from SE... If it weren't that it would be a great! phone.

i buy this phone for 200$ dolares on amazon, any other phone for that price is better than this X8

Pro's
>Form Factor
>Design
>Price
>Great Screen Size and Resolution
Con's
>Multi Touch
>Camera
>Update's
in this price range tier its direct competitor it would be Optimus One P500 it has
>Multi Touch
>2.2 Android update and can be upgraded to 2.3?
>Higher Ram 512
>Better Camera w/ Auto Focus/Face and Smile Detection
>More Screen Colors
>Bigger Screen .2"
>A Bit Higher Available Phone Memory
Much Expensive than X8 around $25-$30 more, but for all those features its worth it, if X8 have those features too, then X8 would be one of the BEST Android Mid Range

Amazon dont sell lg optimus ONE .

X8 is a great phone. i really love it

Everything is good except software update. I really hate the abandonment from SE.

Touch HD QWERTY SLIDE-OUT!! PICS!

UPDATE 2/14/09- HAHAHA!! I LAUGH AT THE VERY FIRST COMMENT POSTED!!!! IT SEEMS OUR DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE WITH THE NEW HTC MODELS LEAKED!!!!! So i guess all of our hard work and wishfull thinking has finally paid off. The only thing to really worry about now is whether HTC will hold true to the leaked hype and deliver to ATT a touch Hd variant with a full qwerty in true Iphone killer fashion. I WILL BE CHECKING ALL WEBSITES FOR ANY NEWS ON MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS '09 NEWS AND HTC-RELATED PRODUCTS. If we dont see this screen on the leaked models at MWC 09 then im definitly saving up for the Toshiba TG01!! keyboard or not, a 4.1" screen with full divx support outta the box!!? now thats an end all to smartphones for sure!! keep ya posted on all the new pics if we get any. Plus ill try to create some better quality Photoshop pics of the leaked HTC phones so we may be able to have a better resolution. thanks all for the poll responses!!!
Update!!! Ok so ive been working on the 3D model for this concept. I finished pretty much everything i wanted to do. The look is there. hopefully someone over at HTC is checking these pics out. It took me a total of about 3 days to model out this phone. and it was fun to decide the final look. overall i would say it should be no thicker than the tilt. hopefully with new tech it will be thinner. aside from that i thought it would great if the front buttons were only visible when the screen was on, seeing as how they are not physical buttons. and maybe they could all be configurable to different icons, almost as if they were on a small led screen so you could give them a custom look. the camera is now flush with the back, which is how i think it should always be. maybe physical limitations are to blame for the official design. i hope all you guys like it. I might consider putting together some models of other concept phones in the future. maybe an Iphone with a slide out QWERTY k/b!! hehe. just kidding. who knows. hope you all like them.

For me it is a fake PS and this model will never happens.
I do not think that they are will release a qwerty model as it is directly competing against the iphone and they do not want it to be thick.
I'm hoping you're wish will become true...
But we always want more... : http://www.mobilecowboys.nl/mobilerumours/8263
they are fake, I made them!! just wishing they will come true. someone needs to make thinner keyboard hardware and thinner slide-out hardware. my tilt still feels like a brick. and the touch pro? that is a joke. too thick for me. thats why i made these. my Dreams!
Thats clearly Photoshopped
I think a HD, with Qwerty will just become to bulky to be really really attractive..

And after they got the keyboard attached they will add a fingerprint scanner, tv-tuner, wimax, surround sound speakers and hdmi.
I think this is already one of the best phones HTC ever built if it is as good as it looks. The only true iPhone-killer so far I think. Of course they can build a phone that suits everyone's needs but first of all they need to beat the competitiors before experimenting. I will probably buy it next year.
By the way, on the second picture in the lower part of the picture the keyboard is wider than the phone, so when you close it the keyboard will stick out on the other side.
Great tazbo28!!!
As a happy Universal user I always have been looking for a REAL succesor of the best PDA ever made!: Universal
And this work you done it´s exactly what I call the PERFECT uni succesor!!
I don´t know if this will become real or not but I´m having hope!!!!
Congrats!!!
That's the phone I'm waiting for. Why would the iphone have anything to do with holding back production of this type of phone. They could have the best of both worlds with the Touch HD (iphone killer for those people wanting it to be dead so bad) and the Touch HD Pro (for those people who really don't want to give up the use of a physical keyboard). That's how you could kill more than just the iphone. I'll be waiting.......hopefully this will be born someday.
It would probably sell but....
anyhow, your lighting is all wrong which is why it looks very fake.
It'd be good to see the Touch HD have a QWERTY keyboard.
You tried but u didn't photoshopped it well
I just hope this could happen in reality...it would be an all round iphone killer + a wonderful piece of device.
Oh Jesus! my post got hijacked and now, the whole world wide web is filled with your mock up picture of HTC Touch HD Pro and rumours that the PPC might be coming... damn,this is what the WWW could do

I saw this on at least one other website and I don't recall them recognizing it was faked by way of wishful thinking.... doesn't take much to "start" a rumor does it.
i had a wizard and a trinity. My conclusion: the keyboard is not used all the times, and anyway too small for real typing. I bought a bluetooth keyboard but never used it....
The best PDA Fake I ever saw was done with a HP 4200 I think. They detached the touch screen from that tablet PC and hooked it up to the Dell X51v's VGA-out and claimed that HTC got a new supersize pocketpc / tablet-whatever thing. Very funny fake since they did it on video which made it look even more realistic.
If they would make a foldable version they could compete with the E90, that's a very very solid pda in that part of the business world: weight doesn't matter, just quality, size and funtionality.
It is true..why cant HTC make a ppc with keyboard just like the E90 - i mean the one that closes and not slide :-?

HTC supersonic

WOW!!
http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/25/htc-supersonic-for-sprint-possibly-spotted-in-the-very-very-ugl/
and notice it says HTC SSD test!! So 1GHz+SSD= Super fast
and dont forget Android!!
Something doesn't look right to me with the android screen. I have an HTC G1 and I've also tried Android 2.1. Wonder what the 'clock' app is for.
To be honest I'm looking forward to HD2 w/ WM, when it's finally released in the US. Android has a nice interface and concepts, such as the homescreens/widgets/app market/google intergration/etc, but I miss apps from WM6. I hope they still work as I remember from my iPaq.
I actually needed to have 3 options in the poll to answer with my exact feelings
I like my HD2 and im keeping it
I want Android on my HD2
This thing is Fcking ugly and would not give it room in my pocket
There thats better
Im also not sure how much benefit an SSD would be on a phone other than the larger capacity drive for storage .. Im sure we dont tax the flash we have in there for read/writes as it is ..
imo this one is ugly.... not sure if its real or fake.
By the time this is available, WM7 might already be out for the HD2.
The only real difference is Android (if you don't use Wimax). If WM7 is better than Android, then what reason will be there to buy the Supersonic?
And btw.: The buttons at the bottom are super ugly
I don't understand people saying it's fugly. Apart from having no hardware buttons, which I think looks better, it's exactly the same as a HD2 (to look at).
Incidentally, it's definitely not fake. It's been posted elsewhere, with different pics and official links.

It looks okay. But I kind of prefer the HD2's hardware buttons.
I would never let this replace my HD2 though, I very much prefer having winmo to android. (For now at least)

Where did you see the SSD part? I think you misread something... Actually, take it like this. You won't see anything different from SSD-like technology in mobile phone (every mobile phone)!
It's not possible for storage devices to be connected on an IDE interface. At least not in mobile phones. Otherwise, you'd automatically get a >200g weight.
So if it's a mobile phone, than it has a flash memory. Which is basically what SSD is all about. So from that point of view, it's nothing faster then the HD2...
I looked at android on the Nexus, but I went with WM on the HD2. I'm happy and not changing anytime soon!
I'd like to see some videos of it in action though.
what are difference between flash mamory and ssd?
I've had WinMo for eons and dog tired of it and wouldn't mind Android on a beasty chassis as the HD2. Also us Sprint users are usually shafted when it comes to cool phones (yeah blame it on CDMA) so if this eventually pans out then i'm in, although i was already salivating with envy that T-Mo U.S was getting the WinMo HD2.
Can't wait for it.
THIS is what I've been waiting for.
If Apple does not increase its screen size and resolution before HTC Supersonic is released, then I'll seriously consider switching to this
However, my hesitation would be there if the camera is as bad as Leo's (I'm refering to the pink patch hardware problem), or if the capacitive touch screen accuracy problem is not fixed by then.
Would keep a close eyes on user experience posted to this forum for a while before deciding. If it is as bad as Leo, then forget it.

[COMP] SE X10 vs other android phones

X10 is going to release very soon but it has already a lot of rivals: Google N1, HTC Desire, Motorola Shores (also going to be released soon)
So which Android phone is a true Phone?
The Droid.
I think the desire stands out thanks to HTC's sense interface.
X10 got Mediascape which easily beats everything else out there be it on Android or WinMo or iPhone OS or WebOS + got Timescape which is pretty much a match or better than WebOS great communication UI or better than the rest (Droid/Motoblur or iPhone's missing "unified communication")... the only negativ thing is running on DOnut (v1.6) but SE already said it will be updated - my money is on X10 and a 2.1 update by the Summer...
The Final retail-rom (not the one engadget reviewed) seems to be great! Some reviewers in the Netherlands already have them and they are very impressed by the speed, the screen and media/timescape!
Yes, I heard the same thing from a friend running it since last Fall... heck, when I tried X10 back in November it wasn't that bad already... and it's been 4+ months now, I'm sure they worked out all the kinks - as a matter of fact that was the official reason for postponing the launch date, to make it absolutely bug-free.
SE is top-notch when it comes to UI design, I always said it - it's just they have been always stretched too thin and never had the time to properly finish everything. It's a (resource) management issue and I think it is the same type confusion that caused the demise of Sony during the past decade.
SE should settle on ~2 platforms (plus their proprietary one for the integrated and lower-tier phones) and cut the number of concurrent models in half but every new release should be near flawless, as bug-free as literally possible because when you are asking $500-$1k for a phone it's better be perfect or you will lose its angry owner as a customer forever...

EW! how can you even say that's something worth holding in your hand. craptacular device. by craptacular company..
Well, I am using HTC Legend, and today I got SE X10, so what can I say, X10 has impressive screen but I am worry because it is TFT (and Legend has AMOLED), also Android 1.6 is not a match to an Android 2.1 in Legend (with and without HTC Sense).
Timescape and Mediascape are good and easy ideas, and they are beating HTC Sense in way of multimedia and friends stream (HTC Sense has Friends stream which dosent work so fine).
So, X10 is a preatty good smartphone, here in Croatia it will cost about 4500 kunas about 840 USD.
So, until they release Android 2.1 update on Xperia X10, it will be just a good smartphone with big potential, so SE if you are reading this, go to work!
There's nothing wrong with a TFT screen.

@szlevi
Good luck with getting an upgrade to the OS by the Summer as SE themselves have said it won't be till Q3 oh and by the time SE implement 2.1 what version will the others be at by then?.
I must say from reading your posts throughout the X10 section you seem quite the SE zealot but seriously anyone that bought a W950 and then also bought a W960 lacks a certain credibility IMO.
As for your claims about Timescape and Mediascape just being the best how's the Crystal ball doing as from what I've read they both suffer when updating. They may look pretty and functional when not very full but once they have lots of data to deal with they slow right down. Maybe you should have a device in hand to see just how well it performs when full of data before claiming it to be best.
Personally SE lost me from UIQ3 and nothing they have done since then has tempted me back till now either. It will be interesting to see if they do manage to actually launch a relatively bug free device for once. As although this is there aim they seem to keep falling short of this objective, it will interesting to see just how well the X10 does and what ordinary non SE fans make of it.

whats up with having both the legend and the X10`? doesn't that get kinda expensive.
Anyways, I did like the HTC magic, untill it got thrown into the wall in anger, because I was pisst off at a friend
And I have always loved SE, unlike Nokia(that I used to like before) are they actually trying different OS's etc.
+ I feel like they have better designs etc.
not very expensive at all when you WIN both the phones. read prior posts

I know that, I read it in another thread a while after I posted this. So the "prior posts" thing, is kinda wrong to say.. since it wasn't mentioned in this thread.
And it wasn't posted in this thread, so I don't really see the big problem here.
I'm having my doubts, I'm actually thinking between the Nexus One and the X10, I'm currently liking the Droid due to the keyboard only because I email alot, and would not like to go for a blackberry.
The x10 seems fantastic, just that the absence of a physical qwerty may put me off.

Indeed. Once you go physical QWERTY, you never go back !
This might sound stupid, but only reason I'd get X10 than other phones (like Galaxy S, Milestone, Desire etc.) is cos the X10 looks much better, and my 'blind loyalty' to SE. But in terms of specs/features... well... X10 is really lacking.

Things that Android 1.6 can't do

So I've been using my phone since early April, and I've found several things wrong with the Android 1.6 operating system. The biggest bug I've found with Android 1.6 is that women don't talk to me. I know if SE updated to 2.2, women would be beating each other up for a trip down my pants. Here's a list of other things 1.6 doesn't do or sucks at.
- Adobe Photo Light (It's not a Flash!) doesn't run on 1.6
- It doesn't butter my toast correctly
- When on a phone call, my ears aren't massaged by sound waves (Android 2.4+)
- It doesn't play the PSP UMDs I tried shoving in it
- Apple won't give me a free case for it
- The phone reboots when I ask Google Maps for directions to the End of the Rainbow
- Playing "The Final Countdown" doesn't result in a magic show by GOB.
- It doesn't drive my car
- The teleporting feature is only in Android 2.5 and higher
- It doesn't (deleted) when I (deleted) [Only in Android 6.9]
If you're as unsatified with your Xperia X10 as I am, your only refuge is to wait for the update to Android 2.1 OS, which many tech blogs believe is actually the Second Coming of Christ.

Not a problem with 1.6 mate, yours must just be faulty!

Lol to both of you.
Just what I needed having read nothing but how truly awful this phone is (Idon't subscribe to that view... its fine by me, could be better but hey thats life)
I'm mostly upset at the advertised lightspeed jump capabilities.. Why did they only include ONE flux capacitor?
Oh where is my fusion energy battery capability from Android 69?

It doesn't taste too good either. I heard with the update, we'd be getting eclairs or froyo...
Where did you buy your X10 from? Consider debranding, root and reboot. Maybe it will work.

But you CAN use it for masturbation! Oh happy day! .. so I've heard.
Anyhoooo ... the question of like vs. disliking the fact that it has 1.6 or not is irrelevant. Most new apps are only 2.1+ compliant rendering the phone pretty much useless (even for masturbation).
Not so happy day anymore.

Yeah, it's like no one knows that it's a rule on the Internet that everything has to be dead serious and free from jokes. Before you know it they're gonna start making fun of cats and post gossip about celebrities.
Having a sence of humor is so last year...
apparently the Dildroid app will only be supporting 2.1 or above... sigh, it's quite heartbreaking
the only reason i want to have 2.1 its for live wallpaper nothing else. with 1.6 i have now every thing works great..

Hear hear. I'm not insanely excited about 2.1 more than from a naturally curious perspective. Rooted 1.6 works fine for me since wifi tethering was my only major gripe. Froyo on the other hand, that I'm looking forward to. A performance increase in the range of 250-500% depending on the application is a major win.
with android 1.6 ET cant go home
Too bad, you can't be as cool as me, woman see my phone and immediately jumps back. They give off this "omg what a geek" looks whenever i pull my x104 from my backpack. *yes backpack".
Yes you heard it right, i have a X104 ...which is MORE advanced than your little x10! because it is number 104.
It runs on window 7!, touch screen with a 1024 pressure with a wacom digitizer.
It weights 5.2 LBs total. Built it resist to scratch screen and capable to use it under the most bizarre and harizous condition! It also run on LONGER than your little x10...it runs for 8 hours!!!!
What can i do with it when you can't on your x10 ? Here is some list.
- Read porns in bigger screen than x10
- bang on it every night and it won't break after 5 years of uses
- It emit enough heat to warm my body and soul!
- It direct Missles ... use in military purpose sometime.
- who need android when you have window 7!
- brigther screen under the sun!
- can be use as a lethal weapon
- emit so much radiation.

Look it is label as x104 !
actually it is my xplore rugged tablet. Picture is taken with my x10...

[Q] Are you going to buy another sony-eric**** product?

I see lots of mistreated and tortured owners of Sony X8 phones.
People bought them in hope to replace old phones and use as main device.
So far NOBODY can use this phone as their main device.
The 2.1 firmware .504 was made same time when X10 was released, but we did not get it, only to receive the root-impossible .47 version !!!
I am sure this was my last purchase from sweden (yes, no ikea, no volvo and no stinky swedish fish for me from now on).
Are there more people feeling like me ?
Tell ericshits what we think of them, show your support for boycotting sweden and their stupid eric**** employees.
Nothing good ever came from sweden anyway (except Abba, long time ago)
Personally i'm quite satisfied with my X8, I bought it as a toy and to experiment with rooting, since i didn't want to risc bricking my X10. I now use it as a 3G modem with great success, but since it's the cheapest Android phone available in my country by a margin of 20% under the nearest HTC phone, i never expected much from the X8.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I use it for everything and I am satisfied w/o rooting. It's my sixth SE phone
Your poll is extremely bias. Basically what you've done is said
Do you like Sony Phones?
-No
-No
-No
-No
Not everyone is going to agree with you.
And yes, I've always been happy with Sony Phones. I agree, however, that their decision to keep an android phone locked down is stupid, though.
Android is opensource... user can customize own phone... sony is ****... they lock android... i will sell my phone with the best buyer.. HTC i'm coming..!!! i use sony phone about 3year. i like walkman.. user can customize walkman phone.. sony ****..!!!
Development forums are not made for this kind of questions.

Agree. Iphone 4 is worse than this cheap x8 phone I almost can do everything with it. I phone is more troublesome. Jailbreak and many other stupid things. X8 w/o root is still smarter than iphone.
Gunawan-GN Multimedia-X10i
I agree. Despite not being able to root 2.1 it's a very well put together device even if you havent updated yet. Besides its only a matter of time before one of us geeks finds another exploit
Yeah, dat's right. At least they gave us an 2.1 update, right?

I'm using x8 as a main phone, and i had waited it since august. I like Sony phones-the best phones.
I have a Sony Ericsson P910i. This phone was a brick. My friend, Kristian used it as a work phone. It was dark red when I got it. Kristian was painted it. I cleaned the whole device and assembled it as a brand new hammer.
Now I have an X8. Akku is **** but that is the only benefit of Android phones. My GPS flying, Android 2.1 flying as well. I need the root only or hacking the bootloader. That is only 11 more days. I can wait.
I am handling this device as a finger friendly computer. I do not brake it as Kristian but this phone lives as the fish in the ocean.
Not too keen about such a biased poll... thought I'd balance it a bit.
I'm happy about my x8, but I do realize that I would be even more happy with an android device from another manufacturer. For me, its not a phone, it's an android device. How well it performs as an android device is alpha omega. Manufacturers that don't provide updates to most recent version ASAP, are simply cut from my list of potential buys in the future.
I have no anger towards SE. I am happy about my phone. Next time tho, it won't be an SE, unless they convince me they got their stuff together and realize that its no longer about the phones, but about running android well. I'll simply look elsewhere.
Manufacturers who still think they sell phones (SE, Nokia), will have a hard time competing with companies who sell devices (HTC, LG, Samsung).
Stupid thread.Go home and cry.Dont waste our time here please.
N.
Thread closed on account of the fact it pointless
OP if you disagree with my decision feel free to PM me and ill tell you why im right
