Will the X10 be a hit success or a damp squib?

It could be a hit if they release it in January. For me the most disappointment comes in its lack of Android 2.0 other than that is is a very decent phone from SE.

I have this feeling that SE's going to delay this (because they are faar from ready with it) till around late February early March. There's bound to come something that is better equipped from either HTC or Samsung if they go beyond January on its release.

Releasing it in January gives it some room to breathe and chart its own course as opposed to following the others.

This phone is SE's savious and will get their reputation back on track, IF they release it in time!

@ Dups

The Android version will be listed a 1.6 as 2.0 isn't out yet. I can't see any reason why the 2.0 update won't be available later.
Also we don't know how ready they are and there is the fact that they don't have to create the OS (thankfully, A200 bugs anyone) as Android is well established

I would suspect you're right on the 2.0 front Mik. I can't see them not offering an upgrade.

I find it rather disconcerting that SE hasn't come out and clearly stated that they will upgrade this to Android 2.0.

There are quite a few reports or previews of the phone that suggest there will be an upgrade but as long as SE isn't saying anything then it is futile to believe otherwise. I guess it's a matter of wait and see and hope SE does come out and support this with Android 2.0.

I suppose that on announcement day SE may not want to suggest anything negative about the handset by saying 'this will be upgraded' implying the current OS is crap.

Fair point there, scotsboyuk. Let's see what happens as we move on.

i dont think it has to do something with the current OS scots.......for an eg. when HTC announced the Diamond2 and Pro2 they promised an official upgrade to WM6.5 as soon as its available, we dont care it coz we can use any cooked roms but its not the case with the non geeks ie. normal consumers, they will actually be a little more impressed by an announcement like that, IMHO its actually a good PR technique smile.gif
and just take look what GSMarena said abt this in their short preview of X10

The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 runs on the user-friendly Android 1.6 OS (codenamed Donut). Unfortunately, version 2.0 is still a no-go for the time being and there are no plans for an official upgrade to the latest version.

Who says users wont be able to hack there phone to enable that? Modders are quite fast effective these days tongue.gif

The Xperia X1 already has the Windows Mobile 6.5 with Panel Support and the X2 hasnt even been released yet o.O !!!

Xperia X10 is amazing!

Of course, all phones were pointless before the X10. I don't know why Bell even bothered.
