AT&T today said it will release the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, an Android-based smartphone with an 8.1-megapixel camera, on August 15 for $150 with a two-year contract.
The handset is also bundled with the Internet search giant's applications, such as Google Calendar, Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps Navigation for turn-by-turn directions and Android Market to download applications.
The X10 features "Timescape," an application that lets users gather Facebook, Twitter, email and messages in one place to easily see what's going on, in addition to "Mediascape," which stores music, videos and photos online, so multimedia is accessible everywhere.
"We are bringing consumers a smartphone experience that is not only exciting, but also very refined," said Paul Hamnett, Sony Ericsson's senior vice president. "Following the successful global launch of the Xperia X10, we are pleased to partner with AT&T to launch this phone in the U.S. market."
Earlier this year, Sony Ericsson had released the X10 in international markets, helping the company in its turnaround efforts. After seeing its market share slide from a lack of high-end smartphones, the company decided to focus on smartphones running Google's operating system.
