The Xperia X10 for those of you that didn’t know comes with a 4 inch touchscreen display and it is powered by a 1GHz Snapdragon processor. It also has Google’s Android 1.6 operating system and the platform is upgradeable to 2.1.

The X10 has a 8.1 megapixel camera with auto focus and smile detection along with face recognition, video recording plus more. An 8GB card is included in the package with a microSD card slot for additional storage space. The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 will be available for free on Telstra’s $110 Ultimate plan, that comes with 150 MB of data each month for a two year contract. If you want the X10 without a contract it will set you back $1099.
