Xperia X10 bringing a huge touchscreen display, best in class camera and unique offerings such as Timescape and Mediascape. But, as good as it is, the X10 is not without it's drawbacks, most notably the fact that it's stuck languishing on Android 1.6 and lacks support for multi-touch.

According to mobiles.co.uk, during the launch of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, a rep said that the X10 is due for a very "big" update come second half of 2010, around September maybe. A lot have been speculating that this is Android 2.1 and according to mobiles.co.uk's inside man, multi-touch is also on the table as it seems the limitations is not hardware based.

Speaking at the press event for the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 launch, the Sony Ericsson rep responded to criticisms of the outdated OS by stating that a "very big update" was due in Q2 of this year. Though obviously not wanting to give too much away, very big to us would definitely point towards the X10 joining the Android 2.1 crowd.

According to unwiredview.  The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro will be released in France and Belgium starting late May (the Mini) and June (the Mini Pro).

Sony Ericsson has confirmed the prices of the two new Android smartphones: the Xperia X10 Mini costs €300 ($410), while the Xperia X10 Mini will be sold for €330 ($450) - both prices are for the unlocked versions.

I have a personal opinion towards Sony Ericsson, why is the Xperia X10 keeps on getting delayed?  First we heard, it's going to be release in Jan 2010, the March, then April.   Is it just me or Sony Ericsson needs to work hard in this super compeitive market to be more successful? Well, you don't have to agree with me.  Like I said, this is my personal opinion.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 will pass Android 1.6 and Android 2.1 and going straight to Android 2.2 instead.

According to a spokesperson at Sony Ericsson's Asia launch of its new smartphones, the Android-based Xperia phones may get updated to Android 2.2 from their current Android 1.6 software in the second half of the year.

The phones in question are the same ones CNET Asia saw at the recent Mobile World Congress held in Barcelona and include the X10, X10 mini and X10 mini pro. Earlier this year, the company had confirmed that the devices will enjoy an upgrade to a newer version of Android. We assumed this would be version 2.1 but were informed today that it "will be an Eclair variant, so it could be 2.1 or even 2.2", according to the spokesperson.
