Sony x10 mini and Xperia x10 Pro
The two other phones introduced by Sony take their cues from Xperia x10 -- the Xperia x10 mini and the Xperia x10 Pro. Both phones are built on Android 1.6 operating system and come with access to Google services like Gmail, Google Maps and the Android Market. They include a 2.55-inch touchscreen and 5-megapixel camera.

The Xperia x10 Pro, however, gets its own slide-out QWERTY keyboard like the Vivaz Pro. The addition makes the Xperia x10 Pro slightly heavier than the mini, 4.2 ounces compared to 3.1 ounces.

x10 mini comes in black, pearl white, lime, pink, red, and silver, while the x10 mini pro comes in black or red. The original Xperia x10 debuted in November 2009, and includes an 8.1 megapixel camera and four-inch screen. It will be available this quarter.

Acer also unveiled the neoTouch P400 smartphone - a Windows Mobile powered handset. At just 12 millimetres thick it is one of the sleekest WinMo-based mobiles around and should feature version 6.5.3.


Motorola Quench

I think the best is still a competition between the Storm 2 and the iphone 3G S.

Storm 2 should've supported Multitouch. Its a big flaw, that's costing it to match up with the 3G S

so ain't there anything coming dis year from Apple,Nokia,Sony Erickson?

 

[Creder]

The ONLY competitor IPhone has right now is the new google nexus one, although apple might soon be giving in to adobe and finally support flash player on iphone, when that happens IPhone will have an even greater edge over any other smart phone

As for Blackberrys, and this is my experience from having owned different Blackberrys over the past 3 years, that these phones are all hype. Sure they may be "something" back in the day but now not so much. Storm was a failure, Storm 2 more of the same. Basically blackberry phones are like V6 Cadillacs.

Nokia 1600

thats a tough phone. the problem with smart phones is that they are very fragile... even i have a 1600 in my drawer.... 4 years now and not a single problem since then....

and biggest advantage no one is going to steal it

i just got a hands on with HTC touch diamond 2 and N 97... HTC seems better except for the music jack... in nokia you can add 3.5 mm jack like i have sony headphones so i cant use it with htc but with nokia. and the cam of htc is useless in comparison to nokia

I bought the N 97 the day it was released in Australia but i sent it back to my younger brother as i hated it.

I have HTC Diamond 2 & i guess it is way better than anything like Iphone or Nokia .

nice effort with the thread.


i used to be one of those people who thought the iphone was a gimmick and over rated, i resisted a long time but i have to accept all other phones simply dont match up.

but i think a lot of improvements are needed in I phone....

like what?

in terms of hardware it might not match up to say the omnia HD but the user experience, the design, the intuitive/smooth scrolling wipes the floor with all other phones and that counts for alot.

add that to the range of apps available make it a a very attractive option imo
