  • Sample shots from the Xperia X10 Panorama app

    Last week we brought you news of a new Panorama app that Sony Ericsson has released for the Xperia X10.

  • Tired of Mediascape? Get access to the 3D Gallery

    Sony Ericsson has done a good job of burying the stock Android 2.1 3D Gallery deep within the software. This means that if you want to browse your photos and videos, one of the only options out of the box is through Mediascape. If you want to know what the 3D Gallery is, you can […]

    A number of Sony Ericsson X10 mini and X10 mini pro users are reporting that the video functionality of the handset has been upgraded to include continuous autofocus.

  • Xperia X10 photo/video samples around London

    One of the biggest plus points of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 is its imaging capabilities. Daytime photos are simply the best I’ve used on Android, I say daytime as the flash on the X10 is pretty much useless for night photography. Anyway, to give you an idea of the camera’s abilities I took some […]

    Here are my initial impressions of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 after 24 hours of use. My preconception of the X10 before getting hands on was a feeling that it may be too big considering its 4-inch display.
