Good Points
camera takes great photos in good light. very quick to locate phonebook adn contacts. software overall is very fast in this phone.
Bad Points
Texting on the screen is a little clumsy as very little room to use on screen keyboard, better in landscape than portrrait. Flash would be useful especially after Sony's Cybershot phones

Nice notification light at the top.
Small and compact design.

i downgraded from the x10 to the x8 and found that while it still has alot of the same features, it is a nice compact, pocket friendly phone that i can carry around work and not worry as much about damaging it.
Bad Points
the only downside is screen size vs big fingers. frustrating at times, but if you dont want a key pad, its the price you pay.
