Unfortunately for Sony Ericsson, their, supposedly, jaw dropping and show stealer smartphone, SE Xperia 10, should have sold like hotcakes if it was released in late 2009. And again unfortunately for SE, the show was stolen from them when HTC caught up from behind with their release of the HTC Desire which is better between the two. The Xperia 10 has higher specs than the X8, as expected. Yet, the X10 is kind of an outdated phone from what everyone can buy on the market today. Yes X10 received great reviews with flying colors, the main thing that's setting it back is the outdated Android version and the outdated and the lesser preferred TFT LCD touchscreen display, this is so yesterday compared to what we have right now. It might be powered with a speedy 1GHz Snapdragon CPU but actually there are things that keeps it slow though, thus, SE's release of a software update (not Android OS update) which is reportedly to make the phone work and perform faster. The promised Android 2.1 on Q3 of 2010 is still outdated, since the HTC Desire was launched and released with Android 2.1 and will be getting, actually is already getting Android 2.2 updates. Too bad for Sony Ericsson, this could have been iPhone's competition if it was released on the right time.
