Speed and Power: If you're gonna use it stock-like, its gonna let you down. After you at least upgrade it to Gingerbread, the phone is gonna suck. Its really good afterwards. Then it depends what custom rom or scrips you want on it to make it even better.
Community: As you can see, we're here to help. But PLEASE for the love of god, GOOGLE BEFORE MAKING THREADS. We've been having problems with new noobs posting threads on every little issue they face. But as I can see, you're not new to XDA so we'll be glad to welcome you here.
Camera: The camera is awesome. 5MP and shoots 640x480 DVD quality video.
Price: It depends where you're getting it from and who you're getting it from. But from the prices I've seen it at, I can tell you its worth the money.
Get the Ace and join us!
Not trying to sound impolite but there was a few threads just like this one, they are pretty up to date. To summarize; the answer is no. Why? Since there are better alternatives.

Well, he's asking about the Ace for a reason. Otherwise, I'd recommend him to get a Galaxy S2.
He should try Xperia Mini.. Not sure about the community support for it though
if you can wait you might can get ace plus
Well, for starters, xperia mini will get official ice cream sandwich, ace will not. For me, that alone would be the reason for not buying ace. Camera is not great on either of them, though the one on ace should be better.
I'd go for the mini, or another phone, but not ace. At least wait for the plus version, that is if you must have an ace.
whats your budget?
if its big then answer is no
I wouldn't recommend Ace.
First even though 800 MHz is enough for most applications, it's A6 processor.
Internal memory is too low. Unless you tweak your phone, you can't install much apps.
RAM is also low.
No... I'm regretting my purchase now... Look for something like HTC explorer.

if u believe in above all and want mid range phone go for htc salsa because it have 800mhz+512 Mb ram and hve almost 1 day battery while regularlu use alot
wheras motrola defy also have same features and water resistable so u can make video while diving into water
both of camera quality is good
coming to galaxy ace because of its low RAM its not capable of multitasking but ya resale value is good but installing custom ROM speed is far good
it's actually a trade in for my old phone , my old w8 got spoiled alot of time in my hands..about 3 times in a month and my dad got pissed and asked for him to have a trade in ..my dad give him rm 200 while he give me a better phone ...still my budget is about RM700 pretty low ..i had a fren who have an ace but he says this phone is rubbish ..but the desgin is too darn nice its hard to pass..still i am planning to install roms on this phone if i have it ...it seems the review for tbhis phone not too good...
Its ok...The phone is outdated now though.If you have a budget,go with this one.If not,get an AcePlus or something familiar.My view,its okayish
kay..i will see
I don't recomend this phone. It never get official CyanogenMod 7,9 and official MIUI. Also it's probably never get official ICS update.
Look for something with better dovelopment background.
Get yourself a motorola defy if you like modding and all with full support...or else if you want an update of ICS officialy and hd video recording go for the Xperia Mini, all though its a ladies phone

Agreed..That few extra bucks is really worth it.Official MIUI and CyanogenMod support along with it being dust,water and...scratch proof?I forgot
No don't get an ace. It will be your worst nightmare since it is the worst phone with virtually no Samsung or xda developer support. And we do not want another f*** noob.
lolol okay no ace now...defy cost RM1xxx nearly...my dad wont allow it =(

Ok i got some money, i long time ago thinking change my x10 to ...
Now my x10i running on 2.3 v3 thx to Wolfbreak Im really appreciate this. Thx
Now im thinking between buying an ARC - mainly cause of the HDMI, and Sony- and SGSII -hardware capability- I read some article, post about challenging the 2 phone. And now stuck so many pros and cons on both side.
So which 1 you choose: stay with x10i, SGSII, ARC (optionaly Xplay? )
I'd stick to x10i for now because with wolf's 2.3.3 it really is pretty fast and stable, thus making it a good phone that can compete with most newer phones running on stock roms.
I don't know how things are in hungary, but here you usually get the best deals around christmas time and new stuff will be released continuously until then, I'd say lay low, read the news about upcoming handsets and make your decision then.
It all depends on what are your expectations from a smartphone and what u use it for mainly.
The X10 with 2.3 is a good phone imo and i'm pretty astisfied with it.
The Arc is an improved X10 - better screen / camera / performance ; but it's rly not that different.
The SGS II is in a total different cathegory with it's dual-core processor , but unless u are rly into opening apps in 1ms and stuff like that u won't notice such a big difference between ARC and SGS II.
The Play i would recommend only if u are a heavy gamer
U can just keep the X10 for now and w8 for the next generation of smartphones (maby quad-core or who nows )
It all comes down to what u use the phone for and what are your expectations D:
man!
there's no comparison between X10i, arc and SGS2 !
X10i is now outdated but still good for basic functionality,
if you can afford don't look at Arc, go for SGS2, its a Rocket, and you won't disappoint with its quality and features!
SGS2 is good but bad screen quality cause the type if screen it does. I will recommend you buy the Arc:
- 16 million colors but I don't think you eyes can process all colors at once.
- The camera sensor and front camera.
- The launcher is very beautiful and I don't want to look at the SGS2 cause the such ugly launcher.
- Bootloader unlocked and If you want TouchQuiz, you will have (I don't know exactly how boot loader works but as I know from HTC announcement that you can install other ROM from other device on your Arc. (Maybe SamSung does)
- etc.
But I don't think it's good ideo to compare X10 to these 2 phones and I think you know why. Brilliant.

If you have to, buy a sammy 2, if not, dont buy any and wait
jus wait wid x10 after wolf's 2.3 even i stopped my plan to buy a new one ..will wait until sony launches it dual core ...love the arc launcher though !!!
anyways else go for HTC Evo 4g or Sensation 4G
Don't rush to buy now. Everybody insists on the difference of the phones HOWEVER, that's better is about to come.
There are rumors by Eldar, the russian blogger, that Samsung wants to put out even a better phone - ahead of Iphone 5 (and that's why the law suit etc).
So instead of paying now and then in 2-3 months already a new one is on the market, please stick with X10 and then you upgrade afterwards.
The trouble with SG2 is the 3 second lag and the interface freezes from time to time, and depending on your (bad) luck, you might get one which has problems with the screen. Arc is still Sony, has house cracking issues, check online ...
Wolf just release a mod without FPS cap and no audio lag for X10.
So just hang in there
sgs2 is by far the best out of your choices...
anyone who says otherwise is an se fanboy.
Sgs2 and Arc are awesome but you should stick.with the x10(its not THAT far behind) cause by the end of the year i bet there will be new improved models and you have time to save more money

Hi,
As subject says.
I am having right now white xperia mini pro But i am planning to buy Xperia U. Should I buy???
would u suggest to buy? if not may u would lik to tell my why
I will be really thankful if u help me, i m really confused
The only real differences are the Software and the design.
My mom got an Xperia U and it's really awesome, the only downsides are the camera (bad in darkness) and no MicroSD card slot.
The Xperia U has a very beautiful design and a camera shutter button. The One V is thin and simple but the chin is very ugly and so unneccesary.
On the software you'll have to tell yourself, I personally like the Sony UI and Sony has some great apps, but also a lot of bloatware, I've only had Xperia Phones so I haven't had a TouchWiz or Sense phone, but from what I've seen I think that Sense is really ugly EXCEPT for Sense 4 (I think the One V has Sense 4) which is actually really beautiful and ICS optimized, also the Xperia U won't get ICS for a few months but if that doesn't concern you then I recommend the Xperia U.
Here are video reviews of the UIs
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqU055WWofY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D31VMIJuMBs
I won't recommend xperia U.Personally I don't have it.My friend recently bought it and he regrets it.The main draw backs are no support of Devs(atleast for now).No ICS out of the box.Although sony promised an update we don't know when(correct me if I'm wrong)
So a better choice would be (according to me) Galaxy Nexus.It has got the best dev support.You get "instant" updates.And stock experience is what I like.So add a few bucks get Gnex.Only down side is bit a lag in 3d games but better than Xperia U.And other alternative is keep your xperia mini and get the Nexus 7 tablet if u aren't committed to a phone .
Hope I helped You.Think twice before buying

I was gonna recommend Galaxy Nexus too but it's a little more expensive.
You're right, Xperia U has a small community, but it's still pretty new and Sony Mobile isn't that big in the US, mostly sold in Sweden and Japan. Also Gingerbread SUCKS but if you're patient you can wait for ICS, and this guy just got ICS for his Xperia Mini so he's used to GB.

I think Gnex is not in India i guess, correct if i am wrong.
The phones just launched and the dev support will be there slowly i think.
Out of the Box Ics is not a importnt thing when u can get it by updating later or sooner
I already got dell streak with 5inch screen and ipad. so i guess i wont go for gnex7 tab

Well you could always hope for a direct Jelly Bean upgrade, but Sony are so lazy with skinning Jelly Bean so I wouldn't think so.
But Jelly beans on Xperia U .......eehhhhh
wen Ics update decreases the RAM then i think JB will kill it. i mean JB will be requireing alot space.

Hi guys!
I own a motorola defy for quite some time now and I'm thinking of switching to SE..
Neo seems like a good phone, I always liked SE phones because of the great camera...
so my question is this:
I know there are a lot af roms for it but I see on cyanogen site that there is a stable release of cm7 for it...
what can you tell me about user experience with it? is it laggy, are there any flaws and downsides with this phone?
every SE android phone that I have came across was slow, laggy and annoying..
what can you tell me to convince me to buy a SE?
please share your experience because I don't have any one to ask, none of my friends have a SE so I can't get it and play with it for a while to see what's it like...
thank you very much:good:
Neo / v isn't really an upgrade from defy, very similar in spec. Infact mine was s replacement for my broken defy.
The lag you've seen will have been on stock Roms, cm/aokp don't lag.
Personally though I would say save a bit longer and get s 2012 Xperia.
Sent from my MT11i using xda app-developers app
thanks for your feedback
I know it isn't really an upgrade but defy/neo specs are enough for my usage...I'm thinking of SE phones because of the camera, I know that they are great..
so when you replaced your defy for a neo, did you regret it? do you wish your defy didn't brake or are you satisfied with neo?
Neo is good for the money, but can't swim like a defy
Camera is not that great tbh

hello guys , right now i'm a htc wildfire s owner and i'm looking to replace it with a new android device ( better hardware ) and iam very confused between 2 devices the Motorola Atrix 4g and the Sony Xperia Sola but i kinda like the Atrix because of this huge forum there is alot of Roms and stuff but i wanted u Atrix owners to help me explain some points
- i read here on xda that all the new Atrix devices well not be unlocked link here sooo is that true ?
- if i bought this device i think i'll unlock it after a couple weeks and if i wanted to know what isn't exactly working in the CM9 rom cuz it's my favorite and does toggling bluetooth and wifi force restart the device ( ohhh god i sufferd this issue with my wfs ) and does the HDMI port work with ICS based roms ? !!
- is there a webtop for ics roms ?
- in worst cases is CM7 fully working ? !! ( stable ) cuz i can't imagine my self stuck with the orginal rom
that's it for now, thank u guys in advance hope to to join u soon
The Sola and Atrix are both damn good phones, The Sola looks nice, has a good(similar to i9100)chipset, better camera, better screen and the Atrix has more functionality (TegraZone, webtop, docks, 1gb ram etc)
The Atrix also has a lot more development going on at the moment, compared to the Sola and the latest CM7.2 build runs perfectly on the Atrix.
But it's up to you.
Edit( whether it is "un-lockable" depends on where you buy it from, yes the newer ones aren't, but they still have the initial batches floating around)

well thank's to you mate , but are u sure the sola has a better screen compared to the atrix ( the atrix has a higher ppi and res !! ) and u said it's wether unlockable or not depeinding on where i buy i don't relly get what u mean but i'll be buying it from egypt and not from a specific carrier soo it's not locked for a certain carrier and can u please provide me with any information about what's not working in the cm9 build and most important the HDMI out ....

Resolution of the screen is really nice but for me personally a little too high for a 4" screen.
But the main problem is the colours it produces. Blacks aren't completely black they have a slight brownish greyish look to them. The other colours in general look washed out. Doesn't bother me too much but when comparing to other phones the difference in colours is instantly noticeable.
The atrix hardware is nice. Will run anything you throw at it. We have a very nice stable cm7.2 rom
If I were you I would wait a little while longer to see if Motorola release official ICS for the atrix before buying one unless you don't mind sticking with gingerbread.

Well the screen is also smaller on the sola, and it has a full set of sub pixels as well as the bravia engine.
The Atrix has a pentile matrix, so even though there is more pixel density, the pentile matrix makes individual pixels more visible.
Well since you're buying in egypt, there probably is a chance your local store has the initial-release stock of the atrix. But there is no garuntee, I bought a second atrix (for a friend), here in New Zealand a few weeks ago and it was unlockable,
I personally haven't tried ICS or JB because im more interested in a working phone (LOL), I don't like having to toy around with things that only work half the time and/or not at all, thats why I try to stay away from the roms until they're stable.....But still, support the developers for their hard work, even if you aren't using their roms just yet (they all look promising).
there are a lot of things not working in the CM9/CM10 roms, that even the devs can't list them all, and a lot of functionality is software-based because there is no driver support for hardware until next month or so, when we get the official ICS from Moto.
The phone works great on CM7 if you're willing to buy it now.
Prefer to buy Galaxy Nexus, S2, Notes, etc... for most update ROM is already there.
if my Atirx will be broken, I Will buy another Atrix. This is one of the greates devices, fingerprint lock, webtop, and many more Especialy Tegra2 and 1GB RAM

okay your totally right the Galaxy nexus is a great phone but comparing the prices here where is live the atrix sells for 2000 EGP and the nexus for 3500 EGP so there is a huge difference that i can't afford right now and there is also a thing that i don't like about all the nexuses ( except the nexus one ) which is there is no SD Card ..... i can't really imagine my life without an SD Card
I'm considering the same 2 phones. Which phone did you buy, the Xperia Sola or the Atrix?
Atrix
the Atrix is still one of the best phones I have ever owned, and the accessories are great and probably much cheaper now
Like people have said before, cm7 works perfectly. But there is not gonna be any ics for this phone from motorola. The devs are working on jellybean right now. Epinter's cm10 is pretty much a daily driver with hw acceleration issues because of no drivers for kernel. Apart from that its a great rom.

Problem is that there will never be any official ICS from Motorola, and unless the Olympus ICS/JB kernel port is successful, it's likely there will never be any third party HW acceleration either. And yes, there is talk of Motorola releasing the code for the unfinished ICS kernel, but talk is one thing, but I wouldn't bet the farm on seeing it happen any more than I'd bet on a dead horse winning the Kentucky Derby.
Sure the device itself isn't bad, but the only support you will get for the device is dependent on a dwindling community. Honestly, if I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have just gotten something different, I would have ran away from the thing screaming like a little girl.

That's what I wrote on Facebook,besides the ad about Xperia E.
I don't think it will change anything,but we all "geeks" must understand our power to advise our friends about technology!
So,another single core product running Jelly Bean.
So dual core devices ARE NOT required - either for ICS or JB.
I have a Neo V and I am stuck with an ICS version with lots of bugs.
So,what your company says:
Buy a new Xperia Phone.
What I say? Buy another brand.
What companies don't realise is that you lose the "tech freak" customers. And guess what? The tech freaks are the ones that most people ask for their opinion before buying a new phone.
So,you didn't lose only me,but lots of my friends.
And that is why companies like Sony keep rolling down.
Very disappointed by Sony.

Firstly, bold text is just a sore to the eyes and no one appriciates it however good your motives must have been.
Now back on topic,
Honestly, I personally dont know any "tech-freak" who settles for something except a flagship device.
So whats your point?
Also, Sony wants to make profit. They are a loss if they keep updating old phones.
To me, it is a logical decision.
I mean, anyone would have done the same thing.
So, there's absolutely no point in crying about it.
At east we got ICS. Samsung Galaxy S didnt even get that.
So be happy and chill.

Really? 320x480 pixels and 3.2 mpx camera? Lol i'd never trade my Neo for this phone even if it will come with Android 12.

Firstly, bold text is just a sore to the eyes and no one appriciates it however good your motives must have been.
Now back on topic,
Honestly, I personally dont know any "tech-freak" who settles for something except a flagship device.
So whats your point?
Also, Sony wants to make profit. They are a loss if they keep updating old phones.
To me, it is a logical decision.
I mean, anyone would have done the same thing.
So, there's absolutely no point in crying about it.
At east we got ICS. Samsung Galaxy S didnt even get that.
So be happy and chill.

Galaxy S did not receive officialy ICS, but the JB custom version of Galaxy S is better than our. They have a 3.x Kernel. Their team released a 3.x kernel, a jb rom with full butter. V-Sync is enabled. Triple bufffering is enabled. Then Yes, Galaxy S is better than our phone. Because Sony Stock Rom sucks.

Ok,then is only one solution:get a Galaxy S It's not Sony's fault that Galaxy S has more devs on xda..You know that Sony was amongst the first few OEM that released ICS,right? No one forced you to buy Sony Ericsson. Stop complaining and create 8.xx kernel and your own rom based on whatever you want.:silly:

Are you serious?

I have Neo V and thanks to FXP i have a good JB Rom on my device. If you don't play state of the art games your phone phone is smooth in CM10 from FXP. It will be a plus to have Kernel 3 but is not a must for me. I am happy with FXP releasses.

Waiting for the release of stock jb rom for xperia,I think 1st should be xperia t,then skilled xda-er will port it to our devices.
Nothing will change n useless to create a rubbish thread...
Sony gave us ICS (for Neo V) before others, but it is laggy and full of bloat ware. I removed 85 bloat ware from it and my phone became quite smooth, but not satisfied with that also, I am using custom ROM and it is very smooth and much better than Sony. I will say xda-developers are better than Sony, so forget stock ROM and go for better ones.
Sent from Neo V, rooted and locked bootloader.
That's what everyone here already do or atleast try to do!

So,in order to be considered a real tech-freak,you must always buy the most expensive phone and keep changing it for a newer device?
Really? How much money do you make? I live in Greece, the minimum salary is 580 Euros and Samsung Galaxy S III costs 700 Euros.
I am sorry, but from what you are saying, I will never be considered a tech-freak.
I never said it isn't a logical decision. It is a marketing decision. A pure marketing decision. And since I am a consumer, I am free to consider that Sony cheats its clients. I will not be satisfied with an extremely buggy ICS rom, and I will not be satisfied by reading silly things, that our Neo V can't run JB, but Xperia E can.
The marketing team has made it's point, but I am not one of the consumers who say "at least..." but from the consumers that say "you must...". Maybe I am a difficult client, but it is my right, and it is my right to say to all of my friends never to buy a Sony phone!
Damn... 7227a??? thats actually arm v6 instructions....thats garbage...4 years old chipset....

well our chip is considered garbage by today's standard too
Sony is aiming different customer type. This phone will be cheaper then others and less rich people can buy it.

Good luck finding another brand really. Fyi Sony is xda's OEM of the year. Samsung and LG are not known for updating their phones on time or at all. You pay for what you get, and xperia j and e are known to be extremely laggy. My 2 cents.
