Nexus One vs. XPERIA X10
We compare the two phones so you can decide which you like better. Leave your opinion.
Let’s compare the Nexus One and the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10.
The first one is already in the U.S. market and, as the X10, will arrive in Europe soon. Here you are the most outstanding similarities and differences between them:
At first glance its size:
Nexus ïƒ 119 x 59,8 x 11,5 mm.
XPERIA ïƒ 119 x 63 x 13 mm.
It is evident that the difference of just over 3mm., at the width of the screen, makes the X10 screen notably higher.
As far as aesthetics concerns, I think it’s a subjective matter enough to everyone to have their own opinion. Let’s talk about the technology then:
XPERIA comes by Sony Ericsson, a manufacturer with recognized experience in manufacturing mobile while, for the Nexus One, Google has bet for HTC (just as it did when it launched the G1) a younger producer, but which’s sticking strongly.
We can highlight the Nexus rounded shapes of both the edges, like the corners and generally we can say that It remind us a bit the iPhone.
XPERIA highlight is the back in Teflon which gives it a very nice touch and nothing slippery.
None of the two terminals has physical keyboard, so in that sense there will be supporters and detractors, but I won’t be the one to be positioned in that respect, both phones work in a very similar way.
Although I can say that the X10 features 6 physical buttons. On the front: home, return and options above, above the phone: the on / off and in the side: camera and volume / zoom. The Nexus only shows 3; above: the on / off, on the font: an small ball on that helps us moving through the screen and on the side: a button of the volume modulator.
Image quality:
Nexus has OLED display and XPERIA LCD. The second has to its credit the largest screen size, but both have the same problem: low visibility in sunlight.
None has Multi Touch, although it is rumored that Nexus will have it active when it launches in Europe.
Both share a processor, 1GHz Snapdragon Qualcoom and related to memory (which also influences the performance) there is a difference of 512 MB Ram in Nexus compared to 256 MG Ram in X10, but if we speak of internal storage memory: the X10 has 1GB compared to 512MB of Nexus and not forget, at the moment, applications can not be installed on the Mini SD card.
Speaking of which, Nexus can take cards up to 32GB while XPERIA only supports 16 GB.
Both phones have GPS, bluetooth, WiFi … Identical connectivity.
Related to the camera:
The X10 has no competence and won’t have for some time. It has a 8.1 Mpx camera, both have Led flash and the advantage of Nexus is that, although only has 5 Mpx., can record in DVD quality.
On the software side, the two have Android as operating system, although in two different versions. By the time the Nexus takes the cake with version 2.1 while the XPERIA use the 1.6 perhaps It will be updated at its launch.
Coming to the end, I would like you to remember that I’ve just tell about the differences and similarities between the Nexus One and the XPERIA X10. Now is you who have to judge about which one is better.
Kind regards and see you at the next post.

Menudos ojazos de marijose jeje
Yo me quedo con el nexus, lo unico bueno que tiene el xperia es la camara, y aun asà no estoy seguro que sea de las “buenas” de sony. En el k810 tiene una camara impresionante. Un amigo mio se compro una version superior y no hace las fotos igual, incluso con mas megapixeles. Espero que el experia tenga solucionado. De todas maneras el nexus ya viene con el 2.1… . Q compañia lo comercializa?
Gracias
Gacias Diego por todas tus aportaciones
EL Nexus One, llegará a España de la mano de Vodafone. Esperamos que para la próxima primavera, en Abril aproximadamente.
Hola y felicidades por el blog antes de nada!
Como Diego, pienso que habrá que ver el rendimiento de la cámara, aunque sea superior en cuanto a resolución. Por mi parte espero 2 cosas, la actualización para mi Magic (si llega xD), y la salida del NexusOne con Vodafone, que lo haré mÃo en cuanto salga, aunque eso sÃ, esperemos que solucionen ese problemilla que tienen con la calibración de la pantalla.
Saludos!
Estoy encantado con mi HTC con Android… a ver si llega a España el Nexus ONE
Yo me decanto por el nexus one tambien, pero estoy siguiendo el desarrollo de los HTC supersonic y passion y como salgan por las mismas fechas me decantare por estos ultimos, y el HTC HD3 lo elimino por llevar window.
SÃ, es cierto que los Htc venideros tienen muy buena pinta, no daré por sentado lo del Nexus pro si acaso xD. Yo también descarto el HD3, pero hay que admitir que tiene una pinta increible…
Por el momento el Nexus se lleva la palma con la versión 2.1 mientras el Nexus lleva la 1.6 aunque quizá en su salida al mercado ya esté actualizado.
Ah!, entonces todo aclarado -_-”
Vin imagino que el segundo Nexus que has puesto querrÃas poner otro modelo xD
¿ Que una pantalla amoled se ve mal a plena luz del dia ??
xDDD Lo que hay que oir xDDDD
Si te fijas Nacho estaba citando el artÃculo, y como dices imagino que el primero o segundo Nexus el autor querrÃa poner otro modelo. Por ello terminé con un sarcástico:
“Ah!, entonces todo aclarado -_-â€.”
Ah ok es cierto no me habÃa fijado xD. Haber puesto unas comillas o algo xD.
ME ENAMORE HOY MISMO ME VOY A ESPAÑA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Llegué a tu blog de casualidad y los artÃculos que publicaste me gustaron mucho. Hace varios minutos que estoy viendo tus artÃculos. Acabo de incluir tu blog en mi lector de noticias RSS. Si estás aburrido, date una vuelta por mi blog. Nos vemos!
I hadn’t started up maps, while had employed them each day or two just before but the cell phone had been rebooted considering that then. Checking for the about purpose showed that roadmaps had been the lead to of 70% in the total battery drain. Naturally I killed it, however it keeps restarting. Now I don’t want to uninstall Google roadmaps since it really is a really practical performance and have employed it successfully as saatnav on numerous occasions and observed it being additional uptodate and correct than my dedicated satnav. But is there a setting somewhere that I could tweak to stop it from starting up except when I begin it myself? Operating a task killer on the scheduled basis and obtaining it kill maps is not a fix for me, as what comes about when I wish to use it and find it getting killed often.
