Phoenix, 14 Aug 2010yeah what you said is partly right but i have a question, ... moreX10 does not have a radio, but you get a radio in the retail package but it is not built in the phone. You can provide a dvd-player in the retail package or absolutely anything but if it is not built in to the actual phone then it is not true saying the phone has radio or dvd or...

    One thing i dont like on x10 is that i cant zoom in pics with multitouch. which i find it very good at the htc desire. its just the front camera that htc doesn't have, but either way i wont be using it for a long time.

        and i hear radio from x10, just rocking. and as far as MT, SE has not confirmed about MT it will never come, if hardware problems vanish, then no comparison... and 2.1 is coming...

                but on the other hand X10 is unique in term of design and ui
                i gotta tell you, i still cant easily decide between these two :)

                    but i have a question, you mean desire's radio works without any handsfree? most of phones that i've seen need headset as antena.
                    beside, X10's camera is much powerful.
                    anyway i love both, i know desire have nny advantages too.
                    peace :)

                    anyway i love both, and i know desire is grea

                      TC, 14 Aug 2010Does X10 have multitouch in hardware? Does X10 have a radio... morehey wait pAL, i knew it will provoke htc fans, but i never meant to hurt it, i mentioned that the lack of MT, old OS and front facing camera and some ohter limitations but dont consider it.......... and limitations u gave have solution......

                      radio can me heared using mw600 headset, video calling through main camerausing fring, MT is nearly impossible. OS ANDROID 2.1 round the cornor.but now u answer this:

                      does desire has 8mp camera with such a powerful lens? does desire has such a piece of artwork? does desire have timescape and mediascape? does htc use fully customised UI? there are lot more....... but let it BE. i dont wanna fight. im happy with both phones, both r lacking in some or other......
                      well this closes the matter... :)

Does X10 have a radio or does it only include one "one the side" ( do SonyEricsson maybe plan to include the camera "on the side" with their next phone) and can you listen to the radio with your own headset or do you have to bring SonyEricsson headset with you always besides your own favorite headset that you use for all other music on the phone? Does X10 have minimun Android 2.1 or does it have an obsolete OS?
                          I think X10 is not even close to Desire.

                                    UNIQUENESS: timescape and mediascape is the uniQue, so x10 is winner.

                                    BUILD: both are same

                                    CAMERA: 8mp vs 5mp, no comparison in lens, x10 is winner.

                                    this is my OWN review.x10 also lacks in MT, there are also problems in desire, so we can say both are EXCELLENT PHONES!!!!!
