Xperia X10 vs HTC Desire Video Camera Test!!!

Take a look at this youtube test Video youtube.com/watch?v=BYnTR-BGNHU[/url]
I for 1 am lucky i went 4 my x10 can always get the new updates and a gr8 camare

X10 is so much better
sharper, more vibrant

Better fone all 2gether

Yes video playback and picture quality is definetly better, but I feel overall Desire does seem to function better and with less bugs.
X10 looks better, screen size to my liking but too many bugs. Potential to be a cracking device but not quite there yet, where as Desire works better out of the box.

Hmm, curious how you have the same traffic passing at the same time in both those videos.... ;-)

It could be two persons, each with one phone ? If you look at the angle's and positions you can see that its not the exact same video...

itz the same person holding 2 phone in 2 hands...........

HAHAHAHAHAH...... thought that was obvious.. apparently not!... Yeah.. X10 camera rules..

My wife has X10, i myself have a desire.
They could at least have cleared the lense on the Desire, and maybe tweaked the settings at bit... ;-)
Alltogehther, X10 has at better camera, but the films we have made havent made that profound difference.
Biggest downside using the deisres videocam is the awful sound- its really crap.

Example photos?

Hi Guys,
Had my Desire HD for 5 days.. thinking of selling it and buying a Nexus S!
Just wanted to see some examples of photos taken with the Camera?
I've no need for amazing photo quality but still want something reasonable to justify the hassle in switching.
Thanks in advance

I took this picture in a completely dark room: Click to see how well it turned out
Also when you check out that picture, I have a picture of a fluffy green android I took, that was in a relatively dark room. (It's the one taken after December 16th)

Thanks for the reply... link doesn't seem to be working though?

Awesome thanks ... works now i'm at home so must have been my work PC playing up.
Looks good, pretty sure i'm going to swap

* UPDATE *
I'm now a proud owner of a Nexus S .
Went into my local Carphone Warehouse and from the minute i held it i knew i would buy it!
In my opinion it's positives over the Desire HD are:
- Speaker clarity and volume is 10x better
- Handset feels like a perfect size and weight (Desire HD was very big and heavy)
- The Super AMOLED screen is amazing!
- The camera takes photos and videos that i'm more than happy with

Good luck mate, its definitely a better phone than the hd, but the hd is a better spec

Thanks.
Yea i agree the HD is a great phone but for me just not practical.
I found typing on the HD a real pain and made endless mistakes. With the Nexus S it's easy

Welcome.
I also think my NExus S is beautiful.

You know, after spending the last few days wading through trolls who came to this forums just to trash a phone they don't own, don't have any intention of buying, and never even held, it sure is refreshing to see a post from someone who acknowledges the shortcomings of this device and yet, is still satsified with it because it is, in their opinion, right for them.
Thank you for this thread, OP. Let no one else but you decide what is right for you.

Post Pictures from your Xperia Play!

Hello Everyone,
I haven't seen anyone start a post for this yet so I thought I would get the ball rolling. The only edits that have been made to these photos is resizing and reorienting. I've also made some comments at the very end.

I know some of the critics knock the XPlay for not having the best camera, but I think hardware-wise it is pretty decent. The problem is the software that it comes with, which is the native android camera app. It kinda sucks!
* No touch to focus
* No metering options (which really blows....highlights and all)
* No focusing square to tell me what it's focusing on (it highlights the whole screen)
Thankfully since it's a software issue hopefully it will be remedied...either by Sony for the hacking community trying to port over the Xperia Arc/Neo Software.
Anyways, please post ur photos if you have a XPlay!

Here are some if mine

My son, Taken in darkness

Pictures of one of the "knights" at Camelot, my dog, and my daughter feeding the goats at Camelot. I'm fairly sure you can work out which is which!
I find the flash tends to wash out the pictures, but I believe this is true of all camera phones with LED flashes.

BLT hehe

Oh yeah, forgot to mention, I use the Vignette app rather than the stock camera. Lots if options available there.

Can you adjusting the metering with the vignette app?

Amongst the many other settings, yes.

Was bored waiting for some friends this afternoon, so I played around with tilt shift a little bit.

Those look cool. Kind of look like toys.

My Epic's sexy pixels

Hey guys,
Made this post because it's never too late to appreciate subtle things about our favorite phone!
Recently had a guy come in with a product demo of a 3D Laser Microscope, so after we got the engineering test samples out of the way, we went ahead and jumped to the fun bit - imaging the subpixel arrangement of a phone!
First,

is the Epic 4g in 2D.
Then,

Check these out too - iPhone 4 2D:

Hope you enjoyed! So fascinating...
EDIT: Couldn't get the images to appear as clickable small thumbnails, not totally sure how to do that, if anyone can help!

Forgive the pun
THAT IS FEREAKING EPIC

I thought it was amazing that the seeminly random noise is identical for each similar pixel, and the spaces between. I wonder what that really is.

The 2d epic pixels would be a great wallpaper

if you delete the 'l' from the end of the imgur URL for the picture, it'll spit out the original resolution. Still not wallpaper-resolution, but closer than this large thumbnail I put in the original post.

the epic wasn't harmed in making this was it?

Nope, 3D laser microscopes are completely non-destructive. Just takes high-resolution images

Thats a awesome picture

Didn't end up buying the 3D laser microscope, not worth 100K+

Thanks for sharing.
It's very easy to see the pentile arrangement with this magnification.
Every other pixel is a long, skinny green pixel. The squarish one is the red pixel, and the more rectangular one that has a notch in the bottom right corner is the blue pixel.

Played with it for 20min

I thought the screen size compared to my 10 plus would be relatively indiscernible but it really looks quite bigger . Wierd.
I returned the s20U because of the camera issues especially with the main 108 megapixels. This phone completely nails it. I took pictures from all different angles and all different zooms and they were really superb.
Much as I love my 10 plus screen clarity the 20 Ultra really seems to top it.
Here's another weird thing I tested the speed of it on a speed test and it was 256 ms down.
then tested the 10-plus in the store and it was 489 ms down! I tested it twice the 10+: 400+ ms down.
What the hell's with that ?!

A speed test on what? The in store wifi? How did you connect your phone to the in store wifi for the devices on display?

Exactly, so many reasons this could be the case, even cases, phone orientation, is one on 2.4Ghz wifi and one on 5Ghz, if on 5G/LTE are they both on the same mode, etc.

I want someone to point the Note 20 Ultra camera at their current phone with a black background and white text to see if the "across the frame" focal uniformity issues that the S20 Ultra has - are fixed!
Never have I had a phone camera with a frustration level so high in being able to easily and quickly capture text on a computer screen before! I shouldn't have to use pro mode and MF and zoom and do best guess on peaking to hope it looks decent. Readable? Yes, but I'm used to text in photos looking like the original.
My lowly Nexus6 and Droid Turbo take better pics in this regard FFS! :-|
