XPERIA X10 From Sony Ericsson for AT&T
In The Box
The camera is 8.1 Megapixel with a digital zoom up to 16X, Image Stabilizer, Geo Tagging, Flash, Scene and Smile recognition, face detection (up to 5 faces), Night Mode, and touch capture. It uses a PHOTO LIGHT NOT A FLASH. I had to turn the light on and off manually. I would have preferred a flash. The camera options are extensive and require some time learning them. For more details on camera capability CLICK HERE. There are many tutorials online that help you with basic and advanced capabilities for the XPERIA X10. CLICK HERE TimeScape: To quote Sony Ericsson: “Every event - text, multimedia and email messages, web service updates - appears as a tile in a chronological flow on the screen. You can see a snack-size preview of an event before choosing to view the full content. With the infinite button, you can view all communications for a contact.” This can include Social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and others, Calendar, missed calls, photos, and many other items. It is possible to set up an online area to track and follow the results.
Mediascape: is a similar area that arranges and gives access to Photos, Videos, and Music. TimeScape and MediaScape seem to be specific to the Sony Ericsson product line. Once you become familiar with them you will find they are very helpful. Until then you will find they are not easy to setup and use. Music and calls are available through the included hands-free stereo headphones (3.5mm jack) or Bluetooth. Sound was loud and clear.
The Android APP store is full of many free/paid APPs that help with work and fun. WI-FI worked when need and available. I have been very satisfied with AT&T’s signal strength in Key West. The XPERIA X10 did not give me as many bars I am used to. This was not frequent but was noticeable. The 3G was available all the time and helped speed data work. PROS CONS The XPERIA X10 is a good phone in a great looking package. Like others it is in the forefront of the movement to make your cell phone into an on the road substitute for your laptop. It comes close. There are other companies that stick close to the Android format that make it easy to use and move between phones without the need of reeducation. If you like the look and will take the time to learn the proprietary setup for some functions I feel you will be happy with the XPERIA X10. For More Information on the Xperia X10 and AT&T CLICK HERE
