Comparisons Featuring Sony Ericsson Xperia X10
Short Review
- The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 features a compact design with dimensions of 119 x 63 x 13 mm and a weight of 135g, available in Sensous Black and Luster White.
- Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 245 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon S1 chipset with a 1.0 GHz Scorpion CPU and 1GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
- The 8 MP rear camera includes autofocus but lacks optical image stabilization, capable of recording video at 720p with a software update.
- Battery capacity stands at 1500 mAh, with no fast charging or wireless charging capabilities.
- The device runs on Android 1.6, upgradeable to 2.3, offering limited modern app support.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The absence of a front-facing camera limits selfie capabilities to zero.
- Overall, the Xperia X10 combines a decent camera and display with basic performance, but its software and battery life may not meet the demands of contemporary users.
