Cardle, from Colchester, Essex, beat fellow finalist Liverpudlian Rebecca Ferguson to take the 2010 title of ITV's hugely popular show.
Earlier in the show, five-piece boy band One Direction were named as the third place runners up.
Cardle appeared totally overwhelmed by his win, walking straight across to hug runner up Ferguson and thanking "everyone" including his ecstatic mentor Dannii Minogue.
Ferguson appeared graceful in defeat, declaring: "I'm so grateful, Matt is amazing, I'm happy I got this far."
Cardle, overwhelmed by emotion, then took to the stage to perform his winner's single.
After completing the track, he joked: "I hope next time I sing it, I sing it a little bit better than that."
Minogue said: "That was incredible."
Simon Cowell added: "I've got to hand it to you Matt, you are one heck of a nice guy, you sang your way to win this show."
Cardle earlier won high praise from all four judges for his strong performances and "sensational" vocals throughout the competition.
Dressed in neon yellow trousers and a brown shirt, he sang first during the final show initially taking on Katy Perry's hit Firework.
Louis Walsh said: "This is your time, you're consistent, you're versatile, you've got a great recording voice, Dannii you've done a brilliant job, you could win the show."
Cowell added: "Apart from the trousers I thought it was absolutely fantastic."
Following his second performance of the winner's single When We Collide, Cheryl Cole said: "You sung that from the depths of your heart."
