If that’s the real price of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 then the phone will definitely not be a success. The Xperia X10 is the first Android phone manufactured by Sony Ericsson and it also happens to be the current flagship phone of the company. So how come no U.S. carrier has announced the intention of offering it to its customers?

The Xperia X10 is rumored to arrive in stores in February 2010 and it’s expected to cost around $870. How much are you willing to pay for an Android phone? Wouldn’t you rather get the Droid Eris at $99.99 on contract instead?

The Xperia X10 is the rumored Rachael we’ve been waiting for. The phone has been properly unveiled and now we know that Sony Ericsson plans to release quite a bunch of new phones in 2010. The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 will be the flagship phone and it will be released in Q1 2010 for an undisclosed price.

The smartphone comes with a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, Android Donut inside, a 4-inch touchscreen display, a 8.1-megapixel camera with autofocus and video recording, 3G support, WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, a 3.5mm jack, 8GB microSD card and a custom UI similar to MOTOBLUR or Sense UI. Features like Sony Ericsson’s Timescape and Mediascape will be able to offer you an impressive experience as they offer an added UI on top of Android OS. While Mediascape deals with all the media files you’ll have on the phone, Timescape keeps track of all communication between you and any of your contacts. Social networking integration is also available as there’s support for Twitter and Facebook inside Timescape.

What do you say? Droid or Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 aka Rachael?

Next Tuesday Sony Ericsson is going to launch its first Android device, the Xperia X3 aka Rachael. Although most people are busy pre-ordering the Droid from Verizon, they should really stop and see what this Rachael phone is all about. The teaser above has been officially leaked and the handset looks pretty interesting. Sure 20 seconds of video featuring a turned-off device isn’t enough for us, is it? But at least we know the Rachael looks better than expected. All we need now are some decent specs and a matching personality and we might just have a Droid competitor on our hands!

Sony Ericsson has been working on at least an Android phone so far and it looks like the manufacturer is ready to launch one. Whether it’s the Xperia X3 also known as the Rachael or the Xperia X10, Sony Ericsson’s first Android phone is supposed to arrive on November 3. Pricing and details aren’t confirmed at this point so we’ll return next week with all the official info.

The Rachael could be at least as good as the Droid but unfortunately for Sony Ericsson Motorola’s and Verizon’s marketing campaigns made sure that anyone interested in Android phones will want to buy the Droid. What do you think folks? Will Sony Ericsson be successful in its Android venture?

Sony Ericsson Xperia line is about to get a new addition. The X3, which we also know under the name of Rachael, is supposed to be officially unveiled sometime early next year. By early we mean January of course, but that still needs to be confirmed by the manufacturer.

If this all proves to be true, what phone will you go for? The Windows Mobile X2 or the Android-powered X3? Current rumors imply that both phones will be available at the same time in January 2010 and we certainly hope that actually happens. Maybe it’s time Sony Ericsson got back in the game with some hot smartphones.

It’s game time again folks and the opposing forces are the Xperia X2 and the Xperia X3. What will you choose between WinMo and Android?

After we’ve seen the X2 earlier today, now we’re going to take a closer look at the Sony Ericsson’s Xperia X3 aka Rachael. The first Sony Ericsson Android phone has some specs available now so let’s see them:

• Quad-band GSM connectivity (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)
• Dual-band 3G (900/2100 MHz) with HSDPA 10Mbps and HSUPA 2Mbps
• 4 inches touchscreen display with 800 x 400 pixels
• WiFi IEEE 802.11g
• A-GPS
• Bluetooth 2.1
• 3.5mm audio jack
• E-mail (POP3, IMAP4, SMTP, MS Exchange)
• MiniUSB
• MicroSDHC card support

Should we assume that Sony Ericsson has purposely leaked the X2 and X3 again? Is the company going to announce them soon? After all we were waiting for this announcement a few weeks ago but it never came!

A video has hit the interwebs showcasing the beautiful UI that is to be featured on the forthcoming Android powered Sony Ericsson handset.

As you can see, this UI is looking to give HTC’s Sense UI a run for its money as Sony seems to have completely redone the stock Android UI. But anyways, enough chit chat, watch the above video and bask in the glory that is Rachael.

Now that we’ve seen the UI, can we get a release date and/or a price, Sony? Please?

At this point we’re not sure how much merit you should put into this rumor, but take it as you will. A Danish mobile phone site, Mobil, has recently gotten their hands on what they are calling internal documents showcasing an Android powered Sony Ericcson XPERIA reportedly codenamed Rachael.

According to the documents, this phone will feature a full 1GHZ Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 8MP camera, HSPA and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Other than that, no details were spoken of. However, if this handset is truly set to hit the market sometime we can expect a statement from Sony in the coming weeks/months.
