Great review by swedroid:
http://translate.google.com/t[....]st-av-sony-ericsson-xperia-x8/ (translated to english)

many benchmarks and it says that x8 has the adreno 200 gpu(the same one in x10 and nexus one)

256mb ram only 168 usable due to running applications.
212mb usable Rom.
i think it's mostly positive.

Hi, Guys.

I'm seriously considering buying the X8. I like the idea of the Android OS and the whole 'app store' thing.

I currently have a Vivaz, can you please tell me what difference I will notice, going on to use the Android OS?

Also, the handset I want is a network specific one, not unlocked/sim free. Will I still have full access to the Android Market?

For Ģ180, I want to experience this mobile.
If you live in a glass house, don't be chuckin stuff about.

This phone has some kind of zoom feature that works using only by sliding with one finger when viewing pictures. Does this also work in the browser? Does the (standard) browser actually support any kind of zooming?

Looks like there could be a problem with X8 antenna: The X8 suffers from antennagate

From se-blog. Please write back who else has experienced this.

It seems that this phone features smart dialing. Look at 3:11.


Yes, this feature is really cool, use it all the time.

Overall, the X8 is a really nice phone, had the x10 mini before and this is way better! I couldnt care less about the camera, I use a REAL camera when taking pictures.

Now if I only could get my hand on a original all white backcover... I hate the faded once, feel like its for kids with no taste.

Great. If you don't experience signal loss in the prototype then the final units should also be ok.

There is no problem with reception.Could be a probem with the compass and game.Its keep on frezing every time I use the compass,or playing Winds of stele(totaly dead,battery out).Became better but not good after reloading software via Seus.Othervise a good devise.Good screen,swift and well built considering the buck paye d.

@lunion-my wife has a vivaz and now a x10 mini.
the x10s touch screen is much faster and resposive,the ui will take a day or two to get used to after symbian,no problems accessing andoid market on o2.
plety of sites to download apps for free-try getjar.com
and only Ģ130 on o2 pay as you go!

It`s only pictures you could zoom with one finger drag. The browser has a tapping zoom.It`s realy conviniant because it renders the text after zoom level and you can minimise and drag a box over the entire page and then tap
for zoom.Itīs easy and fast to work with.
