And that would pretty much end the debate. Who wants a WM phone at the moment, even one from
@Chrizztian
What do you want a
smartphone to do? Until Android Marketplace or Play Now gets some serious quantities of Apps, the iPhone 3Gs is the #1 phone at the moment. Neither the X2 nor the X10 is the ultimate in camera technology, see the Satio for that, and Aino is the only one that has PS3 Remote Play if that's of use to you.
Then again, how is the 3.5G reception where you are?

I guess my Question, was with of the OS, There, is the best and most interest.
I don’t care about the camera, because I don’t use it very much.
I was interested in try a WM cell, but now I have more interested in Android.
THX for the fast reply. And this great forum.

If u want to snap photos, buy a camera. I am oblivious about the pros and cons of WM vs Android. But the price of the phones will most likely be the deciding factor. That and which phone optimizes my MBW 150.

Well, X10 has better specs than X2.
Posted by anonymuser
The X10 has a future while Android continues to develop (and it has some fairly futureproof hardware to take advantage of those developments). The X2 will drop dead as soon as WM7 is released next year, since it's based on old hardware and a barely warmed-over interim OS.
I seriously wonder if the X2 is just a cynical attempt to make back some of the R&D cash SE blew on the X1 - since it's virtually the same phone.

Its really up to the users preference.
First-
Android or Wm, which do you prefer
Second-
Dimensions, is a 4.0 inch screen too big
Third-
The interface, which interface do you prefer, SE have customised the interface on both phones
Keyboard-
Virtual or real
I would choose- X2, IF they sort out some of the interface by covering up WM, reviewers have comented how the interface is really nice then suddenley ugly WM pops out from nowhere. The X2 has one of (or the) best WM intefaces around.

Well, even if I get the X2, I'll install TF3D on it, just like my X1. So the original X2 interface doesn't really make a difference to me. But is it confirmed X2 won't be able to support WM7?

Nobody's going to officially confirm or deny something like that at this stage, but it's massively unlikely, given that the X2 is still based on the creaking old Qualcomm MSM 7200 chipset (exactly the same as the X1, and HTC phones from a year earlier than that). Even snapdragon phones like the HD2 aren't confirmed to work with WM7, and there's a good chance they won't, but they're a lot more likely to be compatible than the X2.
For the vast majority of WM users, WM7 will mean a new phone. XDA Devs etc may be able to crowbar some of the features across to certain handsets, but this is a new OS being written for new devices to be released late next year, not an upgrade to 6.5.

X2 will be a mature device with some experience behind and optimisation.
With a good speed and perormance.
I wouldn't go crazy for those specs obsession.
It's usually made by guys who just get excited over numbers on paper and never really do much with devices
X10 is on Android - young, immature OS with many flaws.
WM still can do twice more than that.
Plus X2 offers good hardware control when X10 does not....
Choice should be made based on usability preferences.

i think X10.droid will be better than X2.winmo. Android have a lot more future than WinMo. Why do you people think that HTC HD2.WinMo, Microsoft dont want that HTC people do another HTC HD2 with WinMo??? ehh ehh?

1 you have to think about your opinion of Android having a lot more future; is this based on heresay or just looking at sales hype? What future in the mobile handset business makes you think it'll have major success in the future? Maybe as a computing alternative sure I'm not yet sold on mobile handsets - I need to read about real world use delights and functionality than the hype about how cool it is from sites like boygenius/engadget/gizmodo & the like that just repost their seemingly "paid" hype (the same feelings by their reporters was done with BlackBerry and to a lesser degree the iPhone early 2009).
I'm VERY curious about Peter Chou's statement above 'I have to take care of Windows Mobile'. Where on EARTH did that come from in his mind?! Is it due to contractual agreements with Microsoft or that he feels Windows Mobile's succes rely's on HTC as a device maker OR is it because he himself prefers Windows Mobile and wants it to succeed as he personally rely's on it and feels Android will wipe it off into oblivion? Things that make you go, Hmmm!
I personally feel that Android is just another WinCE OS in its ability to be ported to anything and competes with Microsoft's core imbedded OS strategy more than they think and it'll hurt them soon enough.

Buhahaha.
Funny.
Today WinMo abilities are unmatched on any OS,
ESPECIALLY compared to Apple or Android.
Android WILL develop of course,
but NOW WM kicks it's ass big time.
So X2 plus it's hardware (compared to no hardware ctrls on X10)
is the only choice for me. Personally.
Posted by Tsepz_GP
I'd get the X2, let the WM7 phones come, watch it mature for a year or two then get a WM7 phone. There's plenty of modds, apps, customizations etc. . .for WM6-6.5 phones to keep you going. If WM7 is a whole new OS you may just want to hold off getting a WM7 phone for a while. Also the QWERTY keyboard, and touch nav pad would make it a no brainer for me.

A Close Look At X10

Posted by tecmobility
For business use, so far, X2 is better. the hardware might not be hyper boosted, but it is just fine for me.
X10 has a better and more modern HMI, it looks modern, transition are great, but is more a non professional phone.
The future might be of Android and, yes, the hardware and form factor of X10 is really nice. Slightly big, but thin.

Xperia x10 is better than Xperia x2
Posted by glorfingal
@cherry ... I presume that's a "personal" statement not a "technical" one then ??
As others have pointed out, each has it's merits. You choose from personal perference
having weighed up the options and features which suits you and your needs best - me ....
it's going to be .... Damn not sure

Personally im having the same problem choosing x10 over the x2. The x1 was on my mind but boo hoo the x1 is too old and slow. I need something faster than my p1 i really think its time for an upgrage.
Anyway im all about features and apps and mutitasking and media. Both phones are complete in fact the only the thing tht makes the x10 incomplete is a hardwar qwerty keyboard. I love to type fast and i believe the touch pad wont let me type fast. The gui on x10 is so catching and clean its more modernized by the way which one is full touch i dont like thumb touch im not a business person but more of a multimedia person. The only thing that is dazzling my eyes is the qwerty hardware key board. Help me choose im also going for a 650usd budget because i wont be able to buy the x10 or x2 until novemeber maybe saled will cool down by then. I love me p1i so much its like my pocket computer and i feel the x2 and x10 is a perfect upgrade. Android is new which i know it must have some disadvantages and winmo has problem with bugs slow and laggy os. So help me choose between x2 or x10 thank you.

i think the lack of GPS built in lets the range down. and considering i have a laptop with a 4 gig hard drive and not a lot of ram, why do mobile phones need 'windows mobile'?? surely something that size could run proper windows XP??

X2 is just garbage. It's still using the garbage cpu running at 528Mhz, still using garbage WM, 6.5 or not. AND it's still using the garbage resistive touch screen. It's actually just a X1, with a slightly bigger screen and better camera.
X10 on the other hand, is probably the best specced android phone ever.
Really, there's no comparison.

Reports say something completely opposite!

ill go for the android
x10
performance, design and brilliant features.
Posted by titus1
I think hardcore winmo user would still get an X2 or the likes, even if Android phones are made in heaven and none of your "intelligent" opinion can change that.

i like winmo but still android rocks
better go for android

Well the thing is Android does nothing what WM wouldn't,
but there are still things more developed on WM than Android...
And X2 has keyboard.
Posted by dj-striker
the x10 would be my pick to be honest just with it running android

X1=P900, X2=P910
Posted by max_wedge
Yes, and P910 is what P900 should have been, but way too late.
X2 is a bit the same. It's a good improvement on X1, but will sooner be obsolete than X10.
Personally, I will be considering the X2 over the X10, but only as a transitional device until Winmo 7 comes out. But then it's a matter of when my contract matures (about 6 months) so I'll probably end up waiting for W7 devices to come out.
Posted by aznsaleens7
Definately the X10 because it will definately be quicker... Unless WM7 pulls a elephant out of it's hat
.
Posted by TimeKiller
X2 is MUCH better - no question about that. Android have a long way to go until they match WM - there are mostly just hype here, with little real value to bake it up (just like iPhone). There are only 2 serious mobile OS on the market (WM, Symbian) at least in my opinion.
Posted by max_wedge
I tend to agree. For now anyway.
Posted by Mr486
I also agree i happen to own a retail X2 and have axcess to X10 and X10 mini pro atm with the latest firmwares. Even though the X2 has a few annoying bugs that i hope will be resolved in a few weeks when the new firmware is released the android phones have a long path to walk before beeing even close to the level of Windows Phone...stability and performance takes a long time!
The X-tens are not as fast as the X-two in any area except boot time / startup which is my biggest concern with the X2. (Note that I'm using Opera on the X2 - IE is very slow on the X2)
The MS market is as good as the android market in my opinion - and many tools are found in other places like Play Now and independent websites - the installprocess is very clever in andriod though.
The keyboards are above all the definite reason to go for a X2 - on screen keyboards do not work - for me at least - i've spent days trying to like the X10's but in their current state they are not for me...
