I have an opportunity to sell my x10 and make a significant profit on what I paid, but If i do sell it, would it be worth getting a milestone etc.
Anyways, if you could trade your x10 for any phone what phone would it be?
Another x10
Probably get an iphone.. sad I know.. but it works.. and the industry that's built up around it means that you've got a spectacular array of accessories to chose from.
EDIT... Actually just need to say.. I wouldn't swap mine either!
x10 with 2.1 or just x10
i'd go with nexus one
I love my X10 Will buy again X10 with 3600-Battery
yh i cancelled it, i love my x10 too much lol
iwill get x10 but after the root

Very Good
I'd stick with my X10, it is just too beautiful !
My friend has a Nexus ONE and he is jealous, we did some side-by-side tests and the X10 performed better in every situation. Although as he correctly pointed out, is it worth the price difference ??? I think it is !
I wouldn't trade my X10.
I like the device now and I only see it improving with new firmware upgrades.
I do realize, as a long time SE consumer, that these upgrades will be few in number and the phone will be abandoned within a year but that's the rule of business.
Well, there are no phones on the market now worth switching with X10
But, if Motorola decides to make Motoroi available for other markets, not only Koreea, i guess i will swap it with a Motoroi.
Other way, i will buy the Galaxy S and keep both phones

+1.
I have it for 3 days now. If I would like another one I would buy it at the first place. For me it's the best at the moment. I love it.
Evo 4g looks sweet
i think i'd keep it, but if i had to swap it would be for the desire. my girlfriend has one and the battery life on that is a hell of a lot better!
Choose a DESIRE or LEGEND.
DON´T HESITATE!!!!!!!!!!!
I tried today both. Man the difference is without words. There are GALAXIES between.
1. Trackball (IMPORTANT, can´t live without, as i come from X1!!!!!!!!)
2. MT
3. Sense
4. Screen
What i like most is the UI of the HTC´s. Just look @ the Dialer, that says everything. (Smart Dial and so on.....)
Although i have to say that the Design of HW and SW is amazing @ X10. HTC has here to do A LOT! But thats it @X10. I USE my phone, NOT watch it....
Will sell my X10....
Personally I find the Desire so unattractive visually that I wouldn't want to use it despite the stellar job done by HTC on Sense UI, and the appealing AMOLED technology display. I don't understand the kind of customer HTC was trying to appeal to when creating the design of Desire and the Nexus One as well. These handsets remind me of a shoe's sole.
Sense is boring.
HTC's AMOLED sux in sunlight while X10's display is amazing.
Trackball... just another point of failure... 3 hardware buttons are not enough??
MT ... well, if you are a gamer but i'm not and i prefer to use my phone with one hand
Did i mention Desire is super ugly?

Yeah, I had a very bad impression of its appearance while playing with the handset a local shop. It looks absolutely terrible. I don't understand who HTC has hired to design their Android handsets? What's with the brown color and the strange, overly oval shapes?
I Sold my Desire last week, and got an X10, the desire was a much better phone, software wise, but design factor wise the X10 is so so much better.
The Desire was boring to look at, in my opinion and to me thats important.
Thats the only reason I sold it. Sense is better, the screen is so much more sensitive, but... was completely unusable in sunlight.
The only phone I would like now is the Evo, but it wont work in the UK, so I can stop dreaming.

What do you dislike about X10, SE, and/or the 1.6. And, what advantages if any do you believe the new Iphone 4G have over the X10?

No i wont trade my XPERIA X10 into a product that costs about 80% more than my XPERIA X10 while having half of the features the XPERIA X10 have. And when you look here, you also know why i wont buy that phone ever.
Everything in that list is something my XPERIA X10 can do out of the box.
Hell no... Never.. and certainly not when I'd have to pay £60 a month for a 2 year contract to get the handset for free...
Even if it wasn't so ridiculously expensive.. I'd still rather have my X10 (and no.. I'm neither an Apple hate or an SE fanboy! - I have an Ipod, and have never owned an x10 before)..
Sure... if I was an idiot with more money than brains, who is willing to support a company with no morals that has one hell of a marketing department which has been able to fool the masses into believing that the iPhone is something better and something they need to be "cool".
F%& Apple and all the hipsters!
If you haven't figured that out, my answer is HECK NO!
No, I don't want an iPhone.
fm1776 is probably wondering why nobody has posted in this thread yet.

Wow - I didn't realise there was so much lacking in the iPhone... mind you there's some things there that also apply to the x10 (especially with its current 1.6 OS)
There are some great specs on the iPhone4, well, mainly just the pixel depth of that screen, but apart from that, not much...
Also, I'd much rather have the flexibility of the Android OS over the highly locked down iPhone OS
Sometimes it's more important that a few 'specs'

Yup, i totally agree with you.
I got an iPod touch, so I know what iOS mean.
And iOS 4 on iPhone 4 as just "multitask" (I get real multitask on my ipt2G with jailbreak)
iPod touch = nice mp4 with some cool feature
iPhone (3GS/4) = bad phone who want to look nice
Now that I discovered android, no way to jail me into iOS again !
iOS is not fully useless, I give my ipod touch to my girlfriend because of her "computer accident" =) Yes it's more easy to use thant android, but for people who don't come on xda forum^^
thanks for the warning about apple products. I have never owned an apple anything. But my mate stopped by with his new iphone 4g and it looked like a nice kit.
I wish the X10 would be getting the 2.2 instead of the 2.1. I really want the adobe 10.1.
I gave the HTML5 a go and the video's worked just fine on iphone.
I actually came from an iphone iOS4 (i've owned orginal, 3gs, and 4) and am loving my x10, but the main reason for my switch is flash which we may or may not get from SE... keep fingers for custom roms
Also I'm left handed and Apple hates my kind

You came from the 4G? What site do you normally stream video's from the doesn't work with HTML5?
As for the 10.1 some one will need to cook 2.2 or it won't work. It will probably happen sooner or later. But if that is the main reason you switched why not go with the EVO? 10.1 should work out of the box.
Seriously, guys...
This kid has been slapping Rachael left, right and center for days. Now he's setting up a separate topic to further evangelize IamalamePHONE, and nobody actually cares to 'advise' him to leave the X10 section?
I would, if not because the coward can't read my comments.

Well, the difficulty is that he has also ignored more than half of the people in this thread as well. I looked back through his posts and it's nothing but slagging off the X10. Trollish for sure.
I like to watch tv from justin.tv and html5 does not support... plus at least for me on my iphone4 the ones that do work were not that great interms of framerate, but i'm sure with time it'll be ironed out.
Trust me i wish i could have switched to EVO, but I'm stuck on AT&T and if you know anything about them it is the MAIN REASON NOT TO GET AN IPHONE... AT&T lol
Hello my fellow XDA people! I have a little story to tell. Now, when someone would make a post saying something like "Im no longer an X10 user" or "one less X10 user" I would be the first to post a reply saying how its a useless topic. But this story is slightly different and may help people down the road make decisions. I recently owned an Xperia X10, rooted with nordic 2.1 firmware. And it was great. I sold my X10, and got a hardware upgrade to the Galaxy S Captivate. Then I outright bought a Samsung Focus WP7 from Rogers (which is actually awesome). Through the whole time I sold my X10, I actually thought about how I missed it! See, now that I played with and actually used a so-called higher end android device like the Galaxy S Captivate, I can honestly say the X10 was a much nicer phone for me! Even tho the Galaxy had all those nice specs...I didn't find it anything special. The Samsung Focus, which is WP7 was actually a much much nicer experience then the Galaxy was...and I gave the Focus to my gf. I have now sold my Galaxy S and am getting back my baby tomorrow (xperia x10). So, I guess my point to this story is, even tho a device can have higher and better specs...it doesn't mean its going to be a "better" device for "you"!
Please welcome me back to the X10 Forums!!! I can't wait til tomorrow
Welcome back!

But you din't tell us what's thing/things you've missed during that period ? ...I mean Galaxy S captivate has everything just like X10, infact a lil better specs and user reviews , both are android , but what actually made you miss X10 buddy ? ... Is it your own sentimental reason or what's that THING you din't find using other good devices ?

Ok, well first things first. I once bought a Nexus One, when I received it it was running android 2.1 update1. So of course I started hitting the Nexus One forums only to find out froyo was coming soon,,,and its a big deal, its gonna be amazing, this that and the other thing. Once I received froyo on my Nexus, I thought to myself, this is really no better at all. I didn't notice any significant speed difference, nothing was better...just a few more features that I had no use for. The point of this is, 2.1 is very sufficient for my needs. So, even if the X10 doesn't get 2.2 I couldn't care. I then sold the Nexus for the Xperia X10 which I was originally eyeing up anyways. 1.6 was on the X10 was actually more enjoyable than the Nexus imo. Then, I rooted the X10 and upgraded to 2.1. Deleted a bunch of useless stuff like "timescape" "face recognition" etc etc..that just bogged it down. My X10 was seriously running FAST!
So, I was due a hardware upgrade, I heared all this talk about the Galaxy,,,so thats what I did. To me, the overall experience of the galaxy wasn't impressive at all...I don't install alot of apps, I dont play alot of games, so the high specs aren't much to me. I however am a huge picture and video taking person. One area where the X10 completely outshinned the galaxy....My pictures from my X10 were compared to those of the galaxy and well....they just dont compare...which is important to me. The videos were good on both phones, but the X10 seemes slightly nicer.
See, what Im saying is the Galaxy didnt do anything better for me that the X10 didn't do....except the X10 outclasses it when it came to photography and video. That is why I switched back.
I cant say the Galaxy sucks...it doesn't suck...its just the X10 was on par with it even with the lower specs from my experience...as for the super amoled screen..its nice...but the higher resolution on the X10 makes it really nice as well...especially since 2.1.
I am in no way bashing the Galaxy....just wasn't as impressive as said.
Wow! and sorry for the long ass post
damn, I'd welcome you back with arms wide open dude (no bromance intended). that's why I've been sticking with SE all these years, nothing beats them, really. welcome back.

I actually really liked this post because:
a) it was not offensive towards any company/user group
b) you wisely used the phrase "for me" a lot
c) it made perfect sense -much unlike similar posts I've seen around here.
So, welcome back, the community needs people like you!
Now, since we're talking about it, I've always stated that X10 might not be "up-to-date" as far as Android version go, but still it is an amazing phone.
I've had it for 6 months and for the first time in years, I really don't want to switch to any other device. I even played with a Desire HD and even though I know it is supposed to be better, I don't think that it can replace my X10.
All in all, it's what matters for each user. Of course, more advanced and better phones will always appear, but if a phone works for your needs, you don't have to toss it or moan about it -or both!

Exactly! The tech specs of phones shouldnt reveal if that phone is best for "yourself".
I couldnt think of any other phone i want right now except for my x10. And selling my x10 for higher end phones was a mistake since the higher end phone didnt give me whats most important to myself.... (photography/video)
Thanks for the welcome back guys...first thing im gonna do when i get back my x10 today is take a picture and post it lol.

Yea !! Its pretty clear now

I tested Iphone 4,Galaxy S,Desire HD and all are very nice, but i stick with my X10. And when Sony release MT, maybe 16m Colors and Froyo it will be much nicer.
And no other Device beats the X10 in Design, SE did a very good job at this.

Laugh at them: http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire_will_not_be_updated_to_gingerbread-news-2779.php
:lol: to think how much bashing the X10 got especialy in X10 vs Desire discussions, X10 was rippd to shreads just cause it had 2.1, who would've thought in the end the X10 would be the better device to go with?
Loving my X10 even more now!
Don't forget we have not received Gingerbread 2.3.3 yet
Yeah. I know at least a couple of people from this forum who sold x10 for a desire. Once got into a heated discussion about what is better htc+desire or SE+x10. I guess it's an open subject until today . But don't think this news will matter that much. Most people are using custom roms amyway.

isnt cm7 stable already available for the desire? cant see them needing the update to be fair, but surely they could put the htc sense ona diet and give a proper update without making that much difference.glad i chose the x10 over the desire,no comparison imho

True. They could have given gb with sense 1.x if they wanted to. But looks like they won't be doing that. Most people won't care for the update anyway. There are already tons of roms and customs kernels available for them.
you cant possibly say it kills it,because it doesnt. arent they the same processor? so u can argue you have abit more ram but like myself i have 180mb of free ram all the time so it never makes no difference to me.the screen imo isnt any better the the saturation and the colours are much more true on the x10i and the visibility in the sunlight on the x10i is faaaar superior. im not getting into no argument. but i think each have equal pros n cons

Plus you can do a LOT more optimizations due to the open bootloader.
The screen isn't any better? 16 mill colors isn't any better?
I have used both extensively, (I own an x10) and without bias I will admit the desire kills the x10 in everything but appearance and camera.
People are struggling hard to try to claim everything se is better for some reason, like the arc vs. sgs2 thread on here.
It's laughable at best

if you read the forum you would see the bootloader will be open when we receive 2.3.3 and the 16 million colours.we can and i have overclocked.the battery life on the desire sucks so does the gps so its not the perfect phone, i looked into them when i got my x10i and i picked the x10 even when it had 2.1 which says alot

its the SAME processor!!! do you not understand that, so when we get 2.3.3 OFFICIAL and the unlocked bootloader we will be able to overclock as much as you and your beloved desire. il be happy too admit if you had a proper point in why the desire is so amazing, maybe you get 2500 quadrant scores!
I went the opposite way last week, had a desire for a year, sold it and got an x10i and 50 quid change. Im loving the bigger screen and better camera as well as more internal space. The battery life on wolfs tw007 rom is exceptional compared with the desire, i loved my htc but this certainly does not feel like a downgrade, they are very much on par in a lot of ways imho

I have an inspire now and its a big upgrade! Multi touch, unlocked bootloader, 16mil colours, and bigger screen! The inspire is also supported by many devs. I gave my dad my beloved x10 and he asks how to fix this and that and its weird having to use the x10. Also, I can hear people when I'm in a call
I was in dilemma between the Desire and the X10 a year ago
and decided to go for the X10 because of the looks and the camera.
It comes down to personal preference, but I don't like flashing all the time,
I like to try new things but most of all, my phone is my personal phonebook/notepad/message center and so much more, so my data are precious to me
and I like to have something stable that works. And at the end of the day,
knowing myself, the only way I won't get bored is if I like what I see.
Having said that, of course Desire is a good phone, the easily unlockable bootloader is its greater plus against the X10.
But for the reasons I mentioned above, when my father asked if he could have my phone, I gave it to him gladly and went ahead and bought me a new one, in white!
Really, there's no need for heated debates. It's all about what each person wants, needs and likes. Peace!

The desire is better, why are people even debating that, your silly person if you honestly believe x10 is a better phone. Acquire an education redneck

The X10 is better
The ONLY thing that made Desire better was latest updates, it has lost that now, as for developer support, X10 has plenty and can be overclocked, but why do all that when we are getting an OFFICIAL 2.3.3 ROM with the kernel to go with
The X10 has a better display in terms of quality and true 16:9 wide screen ratio.
X10 has the far better Camera plus better video recording
X10 has a larger battery with longer uptime
X10 has a better design
and now X10 will have a later version of the OS, im so glad i phjckd it over the Desire back in July, i was going to take the Desire due to latest updates, so if i had it now i would be SOOO pissed lol.
Would hate to be at the mercy of custom ROMs so early lol.

If the desire is better, what are you doing in the X10 forums? Do you think you can change people's opinions here?

he is sharing his "opinion"
I sold my Desire for X10 because i didn't like its battery, it drain too quick for my use, they both have pros and cons, & its all depends on personal choice, thats why so many companies are making different models !

You dig the Desire, we get that and we feel for you.
You could be a little more polite though, wouldn't hurt.
dtfs said:
Yeah NOW it will get 2.3.3, desire had it for months now.... TONS of roms, including a fully working arc rom lol
The display on the desire is much nicer, 16 million slcd vs. 65k tft????
The battery while on custom roms is about the same
X10 does have a better camera.
If you like modding your phone (you're here aren't you?), the desire is the better choice.

ryt guys after the disapointing news from se regarding the 2.3 update im considering trading the x10 for samsung galaxy s. theyre both worth roughly the same so my local exchange shop will do a swap. i was just wondering if anyone has any experience with them i.e gd points and bad points. any help would be great bit guttered about the x10 but just not worth the wait anymore.cheers

You can also ask here, probably more SGS users there that can help you with your decision.

I've been looking in those forums once in a while out of curiosity, there are some users that are satisfied and some that aren't, so you will hear both sides hopefully!

cheers for pointing tht out mate, i meant galaxy s,must be all the dreamin im doin about the s2 lol
Oh that makes a lot more sense now
My friend was gona swap his sgs for my x10.
But he pulled out after some research online.
I used his SGS for a short while and all i can say is go for it.
Way smoother, benchmark scores are way higher and Multitouch.
do it!

The SGS screen has very vibrant colors, more saturated,
generally looks more sharp and feels less dull.
I bet you will like it!
Good luck with this

Hello My Friend!
I was a happy user of an X10 for over 7 months until i got bored of the poor support from Sony... I know J, Z, Wolf etc... are doing a great job by bringin the X10 up to date but my career gave me the chance of swaping my used X10 for a Brand New SGS and i can tell you is the best deal i've ever made...
Pros------
- 5 Points multitouch
- High Quality Sound, both earpice and speaker.
- Good Custom ROM & Kernel's development (OC up to 1.5 GHZ rock stable)
- The colors of the Screen are awesome
- TV OUT
- Samsung Support to bring Major Updates (Currently Stock ROM Released Android 2.3.4 by Samsung and they release updates every 15 days aprox...)
Cons------
- Camera Quality is not as good as in the X10
- GPS Lock is awful, it not always locks good and with accuracy.
- Battery Life depending on what Custom Rom you use, but it's a litle better than the X10
- The plastic build of the back can get scratched easely.
So i will say go for it, it is a good chance for you to try something new and the phone is really good.

On much android forum, I read that the SGS is more pixely on the screen then the x10. Colours are maybe better but x10 is sharper. If you don't want that, don't get the phone and just get some more money for the SGS2 you like.
@andddy - In the states we have the Samsung Infuse which is basically a big Galaxy S. Why get a older galaxy S when you can get the Galaxy S 1.5!? it has a 1.2ghz processor with an 8megapixel camera and 4.5 inch screen.

See if your country has it, it's probably the same price as an older model SGS.
