Sony Ericsson Xperia X10

With an 8.1MP camera proudly centred on the back of the phone, the X10 makes no bones about its stand-out feature. It follows up on that promise with excellent shots for a mobile. Colours veer towards saturation and detail levels don't match those of a decent 8MP digicam,but in daylight it makes a respectable opportunist snapper.


At 13mm,it's the fattest of the phones here.That thickness doesn't  translate into solidity, though. Clutch the phone tightly and you can hear the component creaking against each other. The back cover is nicely rubberised but the chrome-effect plastic sides, piano-black surround and plastic screen let it down.

Switch it on, though and those first impressive dissolve. Sony Ericsson's custom skin is clean and simple, while the powerful 1 GHz Snapdragon processor makes light work of navigation around it.

The Timescape system puts your entire communications network behind a single button on the home-screen, while Mediascape sorts your pics,vids and music behind another. And it's all unfeasibly simple to set up. Browsing is quick, too, though the X10 is begging to shed its 1.6 OS in favour of a more recent version.

You can buy Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 at a Price of Rs 35,795.
