New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

ive just got rid of my nokia n900 as was forever waiting for pr 1.2 which should be my next phone htc hd2 or xperia x10? both have similar specs but which one is better in your eyes

Re: new phone
 

Isn't the hd2 running windows?

I know the x10 doesn't run the latest Android and doesn't support multitouch. How about the desire?

Re: new phone
 

Nokia N900 is better Oh you mean between the other two lol well sony is not known for they updates so picking that and you thinking it took forever for the PR 1.2 than its out of the frying pan into the fire for you with that one. Now on to the htc hd2 nice phone semi powerful if you will but htc cut so many corners on hardware its not even funny. And from what I hear most apps for winmo 6.5 wont be upgradeable to win7 for lack of hardware blah blah blah. So its alot to look at when you jump ship like when I left winmo touch pro 2 for the n900 for htc short coming and hard reboots wasn't cutting it. I saw research both via google,bing or whatever search engine you use and compare specs of all three than wait a month before you make a buy so you sure you will be happy with your new or current phone. Hope this helps

Someone on the forum got the hd2 and hated i. Get the desire

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

lol omg your going to be very disapointed if you used your phone for anything other then calling.

orginaly i was going to to the hole htc hd2 or the n900 the fact im posting here sort of teels you which i went for.

greatest thing i think htc hd2 gives you as basic is 3g teathering accross wifi.

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

Since you took the same dive as me I would say do the X10. I made the jump from N900 to HD2 and I was not happy at all. x10 is the only way to go. I got the Nexus One.

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

Why would you go for an x10 over a Desire?

I don't own either but would like to know other opinions.

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

thanks for all your replies, But still cant make up my mind all the reviews i've looked at make both phones look good. For the O.S's the htc and winmo 6.5 as far as i can tell will be getting the winmo 7 upgrade, Not sure what you ment with the hardware problems as the specs speak for them selfs!, And android as far as i see it is a good, stable os but will the voice to txt be coming to the x10 and how long will i need to wait for the 2.1 update? The desire aint really my cup of tea but will keep an eye on the nexus one as i like the look and want a large screen with a decent resolution.

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

no one is developing wm6.X anymore, and most apps for windows mobile dont run at wgva mode... (HD2 is running on borrowed time if not dead already, although the phone itself is beautiful)
X10 is more unpolished than n900, and SE doesnt have a good reputation on keeping their devices updated (X1 and X2 anyone?)

nexus one and desire are essentially the same thing with a few minor difference

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

False.
Nay.
Nope

But you can hope

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

I'd be dubious going from one phone where you're waiting for an upgrade to another phone (x10) where you'll be waiting for an upgrade..
And there'll never be an upgrade for the HD2
your best bet is getting something very close to the Nexus, since this will most likely be the reference platform.. I'd either go with this, or as mentioned previously a desire.. not that personaly i'm ready to sell my soul to google..

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

yea, hd2 is not getting windows phone 7 upgrade, which is sad, else it is gonna be a really hot selling phone

what i dont get is how come there isnt a phone powered by snapdragon running 1GHz running android, with 3.5+ screen and a slide-out keyboard; i would buy it without a heart beat

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

HD2 wont get Win mobile 7 afaik...
I'd tell u some latest htc or nexus (also htc) /...

I noticed HD2 too big for me to use with one hand - but yet, so is the N900....

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

definitely not the x10 i had a play with one for a week or so and i have to say it is one of the worst capacitive devices i have used, the whole timescape thing is also very over rated

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

I adore the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro..*puff puff*..if ur into that sorta thing

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

I think the Xperia X10 will get the 2.1 update in SEPTEMBER..

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

stay with your N900, in this time it is a best option on mobile market today, all of phone on market have a some disadvantages and you never be satisfied with any device 100 %. N900 is best for me, if you going to buy another phone xperia is my favorite it will have a upgrade in september to android 2.1. but without multitouch, built quality of device is very good and camera and touch screen is also good.

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

I never get why all these manufacturers make all these skins anyway, just leave the product as is.. really annoyed me too on my touch diamond..

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

x10 runs android 1.6 and its lame. not impressive at all. capacitive touch was good but not better than any other standard.

timescape is also lame. great if you forget what you did 2 mins ago.

id go for neither and go for android incredible

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

Its great to have such beautiful laptop skins for giving presents. The skins are even not heavy on the pocket too.

Sony xperia x10 skins

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

Is this a Maemo froum for real !!!!
or is it to recommend new phones NOT running Maemo :D

:S

Re: New phone: HTC HD2 or Sony Xperia X10?
 

Xperia is cool but not worth it. Sony Ericsson isn't going to provide froyo for it. Plus no multitouch , android 1.6 ( maybe upgradeable to 2.1) and the 8 meg pix camera isnt that great. Best thing would be to go for hd2, if you don't like win mobile it's fine, because it has a fully functional froyo port which works great on it, and it supports the cool custom phone widget like the evo, incredible, and desire. I chose n900 over the hd2, I still don't know if it was a mistake or not maybe I'll find out when pr1.3
And nitdroid 0.9 comes out later and oh yeah meego too. :D
