Sony Ericsson X10 destined for AT&T

Sony Ericsson X10 destined for AT&T

23 November 2009 0:24 GMT / By Stuart Miles

The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 is expected to be hitting AT&T in the US when it eventually launches in February, if the spec sheet is to be believed.

According to Android news site, Phandroid, the specs for the Sony Ericsson first Android powered handset suggest that it will be going to the US mobile phone operator who also has the iPhone based on the radio bands the handset will offer.

According to the tech specs, the phone will come with GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS/HSPA 800/850/900/1700/1900/2100, however will not offer UMTS HSPA 900/1700 for phones sold in the Americas.

While to most that will mean very little, it means AT&T will be the only carrier in the US who is able to support the handset.

There is currently no official word from either AT&T or Sony Ericsson.

We will keep you posted, but in the meantime check out our First Look review.

  • The bands look appropriate for the rest of the world. Or does the world still revolve around the United States of America? Posted by Matt, United Kingdom
  • this needs to come to T-Mobile, no one cares about terrible AT&T Posted by johnny, USA
  • Matt, you're right they are, and it means that in the UK, there won't be an issue who takes it. It's just i think many American's hoped it would be available on multiple networks rather than just the one. Posted by stuartmiles, United Kingdom
