While we can see that "THAT" set have too much space around their screens so they are larger area with small screen.

    However, when I check the demension of both phones X10 and 3GS I found the strange thing..

    http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone2=2826&idPhone1=2964

    the design measures are just about the same.
    X10 : 116 x 62 x 12 mm
    3GS : 115.5 x 62.1 x 12.3 mm

    Can somebody give me enightment here.. With the same size of 3GS, how on earth X10 come up with 4" screen..??

          Get your facts right, 27 Oct 2009The Reventon is by Lamborghini NOT Ferrari. What rubbish ar... moreYou got that right about Reventon, my mistake, was typing in a rush. Anyway. Not every company wants to be top seller and win the masses(I don't say SE is like that), best prove is Vertu, they didnt sold by millions and millions, but they didnt bankrupt. iPhone is simple to use, and that's what made massive sales. I don't say that SE ain't for masses, infact it is, but Xperia series surely are not. I've had iPhone 3g, and so what? It's really best phone for web browsing, games, and calls. But it surely can't be above any Xperia series, maybe iPhone 4GS will be, but not current one. And honestly, for an phone built with Chinese parts, simple and limited OS its price is too high. I'm not againister, but Xperias and iPhones can't compare, they are different classes, except if Rachael jump out with iPhone like specs and UI simplyfied to adapt to anybody. As for me, I'm sattisfied with my HTC Touch Pro and Bold for bussines, and few SE java phones for other things.

What rubbish are you talking about when you say that the iPhone is for masses, SE isn't? Which manufacturer doesn't want to sell as many and if not more than its competition? Wake up man, you're talking absolute nonsense. Trying to justify what? If SE or for that matter any company does not sell enough product they will be out of business, bankrupt. Anyway, iPhones aren't cheap and they are selling by the bucket loads. Its desireable, and no, I do not own an iPhone. Apple sell expensive and in quantity and make huge margins in profit.

                Anonymous, 27 Oct 2009The phone is not even launch yet. No official information a... moreJust follow basic facts like:
                -Rachael is big enough to host better res than iPhone.

                -Knowing SE, an 5 and up mpix quality lens camera will be here, much better than even 3GS.

                -The build quality of SE phones is among best.

                -iPhone is sold by millions cause it better fits low range public than say it mid and high range public with demands of use for more complex devices, knowing SE, even their old k300, w200 and up series have functions that iPhone didn't had at 1st launches. And no SE smartphone attracted so much masses like iPhone, cause there is no smartphone built by SE to have so simple functions ONLY.

                -iPhone fans claim that iPhone is best ONLY cause they are happy with it. They are happy cause iPhone simplicity is suitable even for 3 year old kids, I never saw kid handle any Xperia, but I saw 6 y old child superbly navigate iPhone 3g, this is great prove that iPhone is for low level masses.

                -and many more facts, just dig em, I'm lazy.

                I'm not hired by Apple. People stop ruining every thread with iPhone post, if you so wish to compare it, then go to Samsung Corby, LG Pop, LG Arena, HTC 3470, Blackberry Storm, that's iPhones REAL area.

                Rachael is for mid to high range people like every Xperia is, not for masses like iPhone, which is nothing bad after all.

                  lol SE trying to play catch up and now finally releasing something quickly to the market before everybody buys the htc hd2. come on SE you can do better than that add some substantial features because every one konw Android phones are not buiness practical and have along way to go in the apps department. At least you could have created 5 great apps to go with it i bet you did'nt lazy SE typical.

                            Rachael won't beat iPhone. Why? Cause simply iPhone is for masses, it's simple to use, and cause of that it satisfies low range people to 99%, the weird thing is its price. And what about Rachael? It's not device for everyone, it will pack some elite tech and curves. Comparing SE Rachael to iPhone 3GS and even to 3Gi is like comparing Ferrari Reventon to Golf 5 GTI and saying that Reventon will be at every corner. So stop that iPhone comparison, would you? Good.

                                  4.1" screen is way to big, what is wrong with phone manufactures, its a phone not netbook, if this was 3.8" then I would defo buy this phone, but 4.1" is to big.
