where does X10 measure up to others?

[MrWomble]

Oh i'm sorry - i was merely expressing how the user of the post suggesting a dummyphone had tickled me

P.S. i did try searching for something in the site rules about expressing emotion and drew a blank

so will apologise again for any mis interpretation lol

That's twice today you've cracked me up.

 

[MrWomble]

That's twice today you've cracked me up.

I have that effect when you hang around me so often - should be a fly on the wall this weekend when i'm out with the lads catching up - a few of them have X10's and aint seen them in bout 2 years, so gonna do some phone modding/comparing while getting drunk

And there will be LOTS of jokes

 

[Wisenos]

dummyphones are rare these days..., i had to keep my old k790a in backup (and used it often while my icrap 3g was broken)

and ladies and gents
apple have really 4 generation of phones

iphone
iphone 3g
iphone 3gs
iphone 4

(well i don'T know where the difference between 3g and 3gs is beside of "hdd")

Heh my housemate has an iphone 4 and he has to be the biggest fanboy ever. No joke, something along these lines happens every day, and this is one that happened a few days ago:

Him: Wow, I can do this on my phone! (Turning a picture into a 'pencil' effect)
Me: So can I, in fact, I had an old Sagem that could do that about 7 years ago.
Him: I bet you cant, and theres no way THAT'S true
Me: *downloads app* Here...
Him: They copied Apple.

It infuriates me so much! My phone can do so much more than his apple product as well!

That said, I also get annoyed when people say they hate apple and can't justify it. Apple products are great, including the iphone 4 and I would love one, but I know WHY I would love one!

Hey - i LOVE apple products, but i hate Apple - all about their control - you have to use it the way they tell you to use it - which is not what i want, i want to be able to do what i want

As for wanting 1 - about 60% of people want an Apple product because its an Apple product, or because they want to follow the crowd (m8 has 1 and he said i should have 1)

just my

So i bet he owns a Macbook, iMac or Mac pro ??
lol

funny you should post this because i wanted to make a similar topic. i sold my 1 month on xperia 2 days ago and got the iphone 4 even though for years i made fun of my friends for the whole iphone hype. but, and this is no troll, iphone 4 is something else. firstly, the annoying xperia features (and keep in mind i returned a new 1 and got another to get rid of them) like dropped calls, phone randomly restarting/turning of, wifi going crazy and much more are just not there. 2. the screen is just wow, i put the same wallpaper on my iphone 4 that i had on xperia and its SO MUCH better. the smoothness for me is the game winner, its just so so so much more smooth.
thats my 2 pennies

 

[northernale1]

and try to get a answer they are going to fix the issues,,
i agree with wombble i dont like apple,, but I have to admit im happy my x10 is going, for in favour of the iphone4,, I will probally get back into the droids eventually,,just not yet,,

 

[X10iUser]

like dropped calls

Not happened once here.

phone randomly restarting/turning of

Never had that happen either.

wifi going crazy

Can't say I've had any issues with that either.

Agreed on all three.

 

[MrWomble]

Agreed on all three.

May as well put mine in - none of the above

 

[X10iUser]

Agreed on all three.

It seems a lot of such issues are down to users running old FW, but if you don't know...

a. you can update your FW
b. actually know how to

...it's no wonder people jump ship from what is a perfectly good phone to a Fisher Price handset.

And have you seen said makers of said fisher price handset

taking parts of iOS to the MAC OS X 10.7 ???

and didn't they say not long ago you couldn't use software from a mobile phone to power a PC ????

Hmmmm Jobs'y boy - clarification please

 

[charlyee]

Apple is like a cult with Jobs as the leader. To some people he can do nothing wrong and every deficiency in his product is intentionally there for a good reason.

Ofcourse these people also do not understand how some of cannot want an iPhone.


Just my 2 cents.

 

[biker74]

This has gone somewhat off topic.

I would put it around about 12th - I think it just misses the mark. SE have really let their handsets and customers down and I believe are now feeling the pinch. Only themselves to blame.

lol i thought iphone fanboys were bad but atleast their not illogical... i phone 4 is clearly a better phone or it wouldnt be sold out for the last 2 months while craigslist and kijiji are swarmed with xperia x10 for sale ads, and believe me i had to lower the price on my phone from 400 to 300 for it to sell... sad thing is my friend sold his 1 year old 16gb 3gs for 360... like i said in my original post, i'm neither an apple or SE fan, im just some1 who had both phones and apple is MUCH better.
OH and heres some funny information for you. 3 weeks ago when i'd recently gotten the xperia a friend of a friend wanted to get an iphone 4 and i literally forced him into getting an xperia... i saw him last night and the guy was so pissed of cuz he took my advice and got the xperia on a 3 yr contract.. i had to apologize like 5 times lol...
any ways thats all i have to say, enjoy ur 60k screen which will never be updated

 

[Wisenos]

i tried both... (iphone 3g and xperia)
both have their + and -

Xperia:has a 4" screen
Apple: has the most popular

Xperia: customization is far better (ease of installing "illegal" apps)
Apple: you NEED to Jailbreak (to be able to try to install same apps)

Xperia: "sexier" look
Apple: better camera (to make movies)

Xperia: you CAN change the Battery without having the phone shipped back to Apple lol
Apple: still more popular

Xperia: can be used a a flash drive (and i used it as a boot for my pc)
Apple: you ABSOLUTELY need iTune (even if jailbroken)

Xperia: customer support is rubish
Apple: good customer support (used it twice)

Xperia: 65k colors screen
Apple: 16m???

Xperia: Single touch "capacitive"
Apple: Multi-touch (^^)

Xperia: "unlimited" memory (can carry as much microSD card as you want)
Apple: Limited to 8, 16, 32 or 64gb

Xperia: now cheap
Apple: like their other product (as expensive as hell)
------------
feel free to add comparisons if you want

 

[Wisenos]

like dropped calls, phone randomly restarting/turning of, wifi going crazy

i have to agree with x10iuser on this...
never had any of those trouble with my phone

also you can add the "low incall volume"...
never got any issue except the battery for mine (wich is fine now)

 

[Wisenos]

also just saw this on ebay
SONY ERICSSON XPERIA X10 Dual SIM WiFi Java TV on eBay.ca (item 280576497999 end time 22-Oct-10 03:33:26 EDT)

 

[chris100575]

That is one of the least convincing fakes I've seen. I hope whoever forked out the $140 knew what they were buying.

 

[X10iUser]

lol i thought iphone fanboys were bad

 

[MrWomble]

That is one of the least convincing fakes I've seen. I hope whoever forked out the $140 knew what they were buying.

should be obvious from these 4

3) 3.8 inch QVGA high resolution touch screen

5) Support TV (PAL/NTSC/SECAM)

6) 1.3 Mega pixel high definition dual camera with dual Flash light

21) Weight: 100g

I hope they knew it was fake - otherwise i'd have to ROTFL

 

[Wisenos]

That is one of the least convincing fakes I've seen. I hope whoever forked out the $140 knew what they were buying.

but i was tempted to buy it lol
just to see if the screen is MT
and OMG it supports JAVA...

what model you want as a fake replica?
they have it

 

[northernale1]

how does it measure up....

surely about 6 feet under soon
