Hello xda-developers community, I'm about to buy a new phone since my Nokia 5800 Xpress Music is just not cutting it anymore, and I have my eye on last year's Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro, I fell in love with the white version but I've been reading about some sort of issue with the keys not being very easy to read under certain lightning conditions (backlight is white too), for those who have a white Xperia Mini Pro, how bad is it? does it make the keyboard unusable? lighten me up please , the other complain I hear is the cover not being like the black's soft touchey surface, instead its glossy, but I dont have a problem with that since my phone already has that kind of surface on its back and I don't like the fact it gets smudged like hell, thanks in advance for your replies.

I used to have the white one, now I have the black. Wish I stuck to the white one. Looks nicer. The keyboard on the white is not unusable. It is just a bit harder to read during the daytime compared to the black one. You'll memorize the keys eventually.

White
Definitely get the white, it really does look so much better. Not being able to read the keyboard in certain lighting conditions does grate one the nerves a bit ( What was Sony thinking !!! ) .. if you can't see the letters just tilt the phone.. after a while you do remember where the keys are.
Having the keyboard is freaking great.. I won't get another android phone without one.. Love the size of the mini too.
well, i have a black mini pro and i most surely dont have any problem with the keyboard. dont bother much cause you'll eventually get used to typing without looking at your keyboard like in a pc
p.s.
i'd preffer the black one though
Sony Ericsson
To much problem, I don't know which mad person made Charger and useless white keyboard.
I face this problem with every Sony Ericsson phones.
1. Charger (Either wire is to small, different type of port so If your charger port broken then you need to visit to Sony Ericsson Company)
2. Low Quality Battery
I have a Xperia mini pro and I face this problems.
Can't read keyboard text in day light.
Charger wire is too small..
Poor Battery
Out-Dated Information - I read user manual and send a email to them and they reply me "This is Sony Department, please visit here to contact Sony Erricsson", I visit and can't find a way to send a email..
Sony Erricsson sucks, next time I will purchase only Samsung Mobile.
I purchase a Sony Ericsson from their offical shop and I receive only Bill without signed/authorized Warranty card..

When I bought my mini (a year ago) I had an extra Pink battery cover which came free with it. I never used this, because of it's colour, though I'm gonna sticker bomb it with this http://www.touge.co.uk/micro-sticker-bomb-sheet--a4-sized-1132-p.asp
When I find the pink cover, as it's laying around somewhere, I bomb it and upload some photos of it.
My wife covered the back of her x10 mini (now mine due to an unfortunate series of events lol) with "gem kit" from e-bay it looked awesome. I wasn't down with having a bling phone but fortunately it all picked off when i got the phone.
Street cred' safe lol

nahhh not my type of style gemming my phone ( i'm not gay ) but I think sticker bomb would be awsome
My X10 mini is black with a white battery cover.
It looks classy (my opinion).
Unfortunately I never found any minimal black/white theme for LDPI device. It would be the final touch
Ask paul-xxx for CM-Aura, I'm using on my x10 mini pro and it's awesome! The theme isn't different to any device
Thank you for the suggestion
However, according to the changelog of paul-xxx's ROM (MiniCM7Pro) the CM-Aura theme was removed since V19 due to bugs.
Anyway, I'll try to contact paul-xxx and ask him.
i like it thnx
Hi, i have my iphone for sale now and planning to buy this phone next weekend.
I have had an x10 and arc before.
Some questions now to hear what you think of it instead of reading commercials from Sony
How does changing screens perform. I remember from the x10 it wasn't that responsive and quick and my iphone is.
How sharp is the screen, can i compare it with my retina screen from apple?
I was very active here for years helping thememakers with graphics and everything, are there any devs owning this phone?
If i buy a simlockfree providerfree phone, how easy is it to root ( i typed jailbreak haha) this thing??
Just a couple of concers before i smash 400+ euro out of my pocket.
Cheers,
Arnold
I had X10 & Xperia Arc before, and i can tell you that Xperia S is much much more faster than the other two
About Screen, I don't won iPhone 4s, so i can't compare, but here is a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYnz1S_jxzE&feature=player_embedded
Quick question...
Does the Xperia S has Led notification for message/missed calls like the Arc and the X10?

The Led notification is the one in the transparent bar? or somewhere else?
Can the colour of the led notification be customised like in the GoSMS app?
I don't have the phone but I answer some things:
There is a LED notification above the screen. I am pretty sure you can customize it's lights.
The transparent bar hold a white light and the phone antenna. As far as I know, it will blink a few times for notifications, and then pass the info to the LED.

Yes, absolutely. I have both side-by-side and the S is gorgeous.

I had the ARC and now have Xperia S, the LED design for ARC was bad, because it's located at the side which makes it difficult to see sometimes.
On Xperia S, the notification LED is much better, as it is located at the front top area. And I feel that it is brighter than ARC.
I just sold my iphone 4 for 350 euro and tonight i will pick up my xperia white 32gb for 360 euro. Good deal in my opinion, only pay 10 euro from my pocket. See you all very soon again!

Thanks! I had the X10 and currently the Arc as well.
Thats good to know that there is still LED notification but i thought it was in the transparent bar
I love the LED light on my SXS, and so glad its at the front of the phone not at the side or on the top like the Arc or Play.
LED colours are as follows:
Flashing Blue: text, incoming call or missed calls
Orange: charging between 10 - 90%
Flashing red:battery 10% or under
Green: battery 90 - 100%
purple/white flash: when making calls, downloading, opening a text, the beginning of receiving a call, when playing music or changing song and also when your doing some other things cannot remember them all right now. Even though the LED notification light just such a small thing I love it and it is very bright aswell.

Hey
So I have a question what is the quality of the glass on top?? =/
Today I was walking and i moved aside for someone else to pass through my leg just tapped and i mean TAP!! a normal gentle tap! a table on the side after a while i take out the phone and i see the glass on top is shattered.
I am seriously confused what was the quality of the glass? the phone functions normal everything is fine just the shatter at the top and the ripples .
So apart from the quality can it be replaced since i have no option!! have to give to the service center to fix the yellow tint too hope they take it with the broken glass and all....
so will they?
I wonder if they will fix the yellow tint issue under warranty I don't want the reply "oh you damaged screen so you get yellow tint we no fix without charge" (Believe me the reps sound like this )
But seriously isn't this a quality issue of some sort I mean is the glass supposed to shatter this easily =/
Oh yeah this is my first android phone ever.
SE so had good quality so went for it but then again those were feature phones such as w800i etc
damn... no words
mine got insurance already to avoid such surprises.
call them and ask what can be done, explain the situation maybe they will help you
i wish you all the luck mate
did you remove the screen protector that came with the phone (already put on).
I think that protector prevents cracking....

Sorry for that.....
Next time keep the glass side facing to your leg.

On another note could just go on to invent a time machine...(Sorry I get a bit carried away I know )
Quality is offer by Ericsson !
not SONY ! :-D
Sony need get money :-D
And that's why this phone have cheap piece in.
like the screen,or plastic,or battery or. .....
but
I if I'm right the screen is
by Samsung,
not sony(not totally sure)but on the vita yes
In major way sony do nothing,
they just buy and assembly some piece in the phone in china,
under their brand.
Only design and motherboard is sony
It's a pure cheap brand by fan ! :-D
This is not my first phone krkr!
I mean 34
I alway buy Ericsson in the past,
because they do some good
quality phone
but motorola have good quality phone too
(they construct all piece in the phone)
I have a sony ps vita,
and this is the same way,
the screen have spot,tint,line,ect..
If you not agree with me,
go on google and search about this ;-)
I'm surprised that you ignore quality on a phone made in china at low price !
But for me
I like the design of sony they made beautifully phone.
Btw,
Sad for you,hope you can get another phone
This phone is fragile,very fragile!
What do u mean. Quality offered by Ericsson. Have u been smoking? And who told u the screen if the vita is by Samsung. Sony manufactures OLED screens. The display on this phone is by Sony. So is the camera, or u wanna say exmor is by samsung. Even the battery. Dude, get your facts straight.

@kaosdroid don't talk rubbish, anyway this phone was designed while under Sony Ericsson...
to the OP I'm sorry, but that does not look like a gentle tap the point of impact looks like there was some pretty heavy force. Are sure it was from hitting the table? Not that I don't believe you, maybe it hit a weak point in the glass?
I always put the phone in my pocket screen facing inwards (to my leg) which just protects the screen from such damage, good tip
As for replacing under warranty due to the yellowing, I don't know if the digitiser and LED screen are intact as one piece i.e. the glass that shattered isn't the part they replace when repairing the screen problem

to the Sammy troll . Xperia s was made by se as this phone was designed 2 years ago look it up n vita OLED is by Sony n this display is also by sony oh n Sony has good build quality too btw they are known for it worldwide what planet do you live on??? He really must have dopped acid or something
Yeah thats what I am hoping like they are different parts. I duno whatever just hope they are going to be cooperative you know. I swear it was a tap cause se I shuffled to the side between the desks to make way for a guy passing n then on to the path I wasn't running or anything I was in class. But you know what I thought about the weak point how the ripples are made came to the conclusion that the point of impact was the speaker grill if thats what it is just below the Sony logo n that too the very edge of it so talk about bad luck to the max. Just hope it can be replaced n wont cost me an arm n a leg knowing Sony's pricing

To the discussion about who made the screen etc.
It may shock people to know sony have never manfuactured lcd panels themselves, they dont have a fab for it. They used to have a technical partnership / joint venture with samsung electroncs called S-LCD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-LCD)
But when sony brought out the erricson side of the mobile partnership, samsung purchased sony's stake in the displays partnership and then spun off the display arm into a new company (called samsung displays I think).
The new ipads screen is made by samsung
Samsung manufacture small and large lcd's along with there oled lines, they are one of the biggest manufacturers of lcd panels going the other major players are AUO, Hitachi, Lg, NEC/Phillips
Also from samsungs financial report (2010) sony are samsung electronics biggest buyer.
Samsung's largest clients (Q1 2010)
Rank/company Part description Buying (trillion KRW) Percent of total sales
1 Sony DRAM, NAND flash, LCD panels, 1.28 3.7
Edit - Have just had a quick look around on google and it doesn't seem as if anyone has done a bill of materials for it yet (they like pulling ipads apart for this) so unless people have screen part numbers we cant confirm / deny the supplier of the xperia s' screen
Hi.
Today im using lg o2x and im thinking about a change to the xperia.
While looking in this forum i notice that there is some problem in the screen,
Is it in all the devices? Is the ics come soon?
And in the bottom line, is it worth buying?
Compared to the O2X freaking everything is worth buying. Later devices don't have screen problems and we already have ICS and will get CM9 soon.
Yep........... its really good.....
But!
1) battery life = LAME(middle usage 19-21 hours)
2)my screen wakes up in the middle of nowhere without pressing any button
Edit:1 24-29 hours with juice defender ultimate 2:fixed updating the phone
Well my o2x is a fantastic phone,not even 1 problem since i install the cm7.
Ok than battery lame, and "live" screen.
How is the browser experience and the speaker quality?

The models that have yellow display have been mostly phased out. The new ones shouldn't have any problem.
LG O2x will always have an awesome community, for modding its very hard to beat currently no matter what phone you buy next even GS3.
Reminds me of the HTC HD2 scene in scope and modding.
The modding scene will hopefully be as good for the SXS, it's quite good tho largly due to the stock Sony software experience being quite nice all round.
-smc
absolutely, yes.
Because its good looking.
And if u dont have any wired needs, Xperia S can fulfill all u life.
I just notice in youtube that the banchmark scores are low compare to the new phones.

You can't judge a phone by benchmark. Nexus 7 is another example, not the best in benchmark, but the smoothest compared to other android device. Same goes to Xperia s, smooth.

Middle button is unresponsive. BUT you get used to it and realize just press a little harder and it will function. don't let the buttons drive you away from this phone. I'm current using/testing HTC ONE X International and Xperia S. So far i'm liking the Xperia S more.
Funny that you ask it here... I looooooove this phone... And the people that hated the phone are obviously not here...

Hi, I dreamed of XPERIA S, I dont like it anymore after 2 months of using, phone gets a lot of dust under back cover, screen is not that awesome as SONY says, it's not that ultra bright and colors are not that super. As for camera I'd say that my old XPERIA Arc took better pictures than this, also picture quality is not that good for 12MP. I really wouldnt buy that phone, I'd go for new Acro S.

- As for camera I'd say that my old XPERIA Arc took better pictures than this, also picture quality is not that good for 12MP: try another camera app. i found that LG Camera takes better picture. and no! bigger megapixels dont make it better quality, it's the lens that all count for quality.and i found out that SXS's lens is very good. especially in outdoor (enough lightning). and with no enough lightning (which i havent found any phone that make good quality photo in low lightning), Photoshop will do the trick.
Hi folks,
Just bought this on contract,vbut not sure what to think. Touch screen is amazing, though ICS was out in the UK for this?
Other thing is the screen, if I turn the device, there is some severe LCD bleed through under the black bezel, clearly not normal, its on the left and right.
Seems like a good cause to return the device, I have 14 dayscif im not happy with it, is the Xperia P better?
Thanks guys!
Xperia P has metallic cover, more storage and more RAM. I like so much it, but the U's multicolor Led is fantastic, i can't leave it. <3
To describe the issue better, its a complete line of dead pixels under the black bezel.
Would like the Xperia P, wanted more RAM.
No ICS for my UK Xperia U?
In a few days
ICS for UK U will arrive in a few days.

Those aint dead pixels. The screen lights are located there thus it looks like that. Completely normal.
Edit: i'd suggest you to go for the P though, ICS on the U isn't how it should be at the moment and the RAM, oh the RAM! Go for the P.

Hanks for clearing thwt up, even if its normal im not impressed,ci hope its reasonable grounds for a contract cancellation!
