Currently th... moreThat's a good question to be honest. I have no idea on what would be the best phone for you in that situation.
But if you cares alot about the battery time between the N8 and XPERIA X10, then X10 will win there.
Ofc now, there are bugs in Android 1.6 that drains the battery pretty fast if you use some specific settings on the X10.
But that will get fixed pretty soon. Most likely in some few weeks.
I know one XPERIA X10 user that managed to use his X10 for almost 180 hours before the battery was empty.
He managed that since he used the automatic setting on the brightness and because he didn't install many apps that might be running in the backgroud that might use more battery.
So that's pretty nice even with bugs on the battery usage.

Currently the WinMos X1 and Symbian E63 are driving my pockets.
Now I need to replace one of them.
If I buy X10, I would stop using X1 as 2 devices from SE is against my pocket policy.
If I buy N8, I have to drop E63 as 2 Nokia/2 symbians would be foolish.
I need best of both worlds. I am confused… Helpppppppp Me.

But then I might buy N8 as well which I don't want to.
I know I am struggling between X10 and N8 but I don't want to end up buying both and hence I would wait for N8.
I would read official reviews of N8 and then decide which one to go for. Till then discussion continues.

But when it's about the future it wont live for long. It's not powerfull enough to run Symbian ^4.
Nokia N8 is made for Symbian ^3 only. And Symbian ^3 wont live for long since Symbian ^4 is under development already. And will soon be out.
And because Symbian ^3 is the only confirmed OS it will run, then Nokia N8 isn't the best phone to buy if you want to have a phone with lots of support and lots of updates in the future.
Like me, i payed 530 euro for my Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10. Not cheap, but you'll get what you pay for. You get a really nice phone with amazing hardware specs and you'll get lifetime support on your XPERIA X10 to. And by that, the XPERIA X10 will live for a loooooooong long time.
Nothing beats that to be quite honest.
That alone is a BIG BIG factor on what mobile phone i will buy.

And alot of peoples just want simple Nokia phones.
When it's about really advanced smart phones today, then very few is going for Nokia phones today.
The thing that Nokia sells most phones have nothing to do what brand that sells the best quality and advanced mobile phones today.
It's like saying that Toyota (car brand) here in Norway are selling most cars over other car brands here, like they do now. But that doesn't mean most of their cars are the best quality and spec'ed cars with lots of features and that in Norway.
This is just an example on why your points on that are invalid.

elge? Who's that ? Because he keeps going on about that dam x10, get over it dude , nokia owns over 40% of the cellphone market, all you haters get it in your head, if nokia are so bad then how come they are the best selling cellphone company in the world.. They rule..period and fact! End of story.. Now please save your hate speech for your own forums, this is a forum for nokia fans to say what they think of this mobile , and you people should not compare this to any other phone since its not released yet and 680mhz cpu is fast enough, this is a small phone not a big computer , and maybe symbian 3 needs more power..thats what the hardware accelerator is there for!

Here is an idea... since the iphone doesn't have a file system, you can hook it up to a Nokia N8 and see the files from there.............

X10 Vs N8 , 29 May 2010I would compare X10 and N8 on specs
Some random thoughts please.. no offence
X10 – Android... moreya pretty fair and perfectly agree with ur last though, one need to purchase that device which has set of features one really want.
for me n8 seems to deliver all that what i want and without asking unreasonale price. in short, according to me n8 have got very good features at reasonable price point.

facethedanger, 29 May 2010i just want to tell those who are talking about symbian ^3 is not true just wait until n8 will... morewhatever if they do so, it will just differ in naming not anything like they are skipping the generation of improvements. I wont be surpriced if they skip anything containing digit 4 as its unlucky for them. I have read like that somewhere. They have no model no. having this digit, also it was s60v5 directly after s60v3.. this is all in agreement.
