yep, very good looking phone i sold my Arc and now i have Ray
Only thing left is 1GB of RAM. Single core is fine and dandy, only the RAM thing that lacks.

I'm really like small smartphone, and only Sony made it right, they powerful enough to do stuff I want. All other companies think people want small phone also want it cheap and low spec., what kind of logic is that?
Sola or U or SX is next in my list, but lost the awesome physical home button is a bit sad to me. Really like the Sola design. But all depend on xda's people - I will not buy a phone without good community of developers around it

Use the phone alone is bad. But here is the family
i got this phone 2days ago.
it is a well thought decision i made.
im choosing between U or sola.
i chose this because xperia U doesnt have a memory slot, over saturated pic result low batt capacity. While sola doesnt have a front facing cam(a deal breaker for me)
compare to xperia ray, which have a front facing camera, 1500batt capacity, 8mp cam, smaller display 295ppi that beat both U and sola's ppi. though U and Sola have dualcore, i dont really need it. it fits perfectly well on my hand and i can do a onehand txting and really pocket size phone. not bulky and not heavy.
will buy new phone next year where im anticipating sony SX price will be lower.
This is the main reason I chose Ray over Neo or Arc, its beautiful design and its perfect size. I hate big phones, honestly.
Believe me, all people around ask me what model is, and say it's beautiful.
Now I made it even more awesome installing Android ICS on it.
I think I have the perfect phone for me on my hands for now. Who cares about double/quad cores, or a lot of RAM. For me, Xperia Ray does the job, and it looks fantastic when I use it in calls, twitting, playing, text-messaging, watching videos, etc. A flawless performance combined with so much appealing
I don't think about switching soon, I'll get Xperia Acro S until december or later. But I love very much my Ray that I'll let it on good hands, my girlfriend's.

I wonder if it is a good idea to wait for Xperia P than to buy huge Xperia S.
Used Galaxy Ace for over 7 months and now I sold it. Thought to buy an S2 but I just hate that shape. No more samsung!!!
Always wanted to get my hands on Xperia Arc but many other good phones are out there now in the market. Like HTC Sensation XE, Galaxy S2, etc. People will laugh if I buy an arc now. But still arc is taking over my mind because its cost is very low now compared to other phones.
I already have 630$ in my amazon.com account (as gift card balance), but I have to add some $ 80 to it to buy Xperia S and ship it to India.
I prefer Xperia P over Xperia S coz:
Smaller in size (just 4.5mm width difference but I think it matters)
8MP is enough for me
HD screen is not a must (540X960 pixels is fine)
I don't want a HD front Camera (I don't want a front camera at all for another one or two years).
But S is better over P because of 32GB storage, 1.5GHz. Well at least I have to say myself that P costs less.
What I want to do now is buy an arc, use it for 4 or 5 months, then sell it and buy the Xperia P. By the end of april sure P will be released. And after another 2 months its price will also be reduced much, like all sony phones does.
What say, friends? Now should I buy Xperia S or Arc?
The S supports USB OTG as well, it's in another thread
it's your money, I like the S because of the speed, camera, size, and looks.
Ultimately it's what you think about the two, the P has the looks, but the rest isn't doing it for me

IMO it will be stupid to buy a Arc now only to sell it again in a few months. But that just me. If you have S2 now you have big screen. And after my experince once you got a big screen you never go back. Same with televisions. And besides the arc has nearly the same size screen as the S. So i don't see your logic? Games and pictures and video is so much better on a high resolution big screen. And if you wait for the P alot other mobiles will be released by then, and then you can't decide again.
Your argument about front faced camera, well i don't realy undestand it. I doubt i'll ever use my front faced camera other than taking pictures of my self. So nobody says you have to use it and you barley notice it on the S.
Buy the S. It's a great phone just like the Arc was. The Arc was also the flagship and the followers was Neo, Pro and play. The Sony Xperia S is also the flagship the U and P are just limited editions followers.
Buy the flagship.

Face unlock in ice cream sandwich only works with front facing camera.
So you think the Xperia S is too big but you are thinking of an S II?
I like handsets that i can operate with 1 hand. Its the main reason i walked away from the Galaxy Nexus Prime.
I had the X10 and the Xperia S is 5-10mm taller and a couple of mm wider.
I have no problem driving this animal with 1 hand.
Sony's policy (until now it seems) was to release a flagship model 2010 was the X10, 2011 was the Arc and this year is the 'S' until August anyway. Then they released a mid and lower range handset.
I know that if i got the lesser models i would always wishing i got the flagship instead.
Just my personal feelings and obviously you do as you please.
Just don't make a decision on what you think.
Get down to a mobile phone shop and get your choices in your hands. Your choice would be at least then justified and not on guess work.

I posted some early impression of the Xperia S HERE with some pics of Xperia S against arc.
- If you had any screen bigger than 4.0, Xperia P will be small
- Dual Core 1GHz should be enough but 1.5GHz could help you with some apps later
-There are differences between the two and Xperia S tops it out. I felt in love with Xperia P aluminum unibody and the fact doesn't have flaps for USB connection but once I got the Xperia S I forgot all of those fact.
Xperia S is good built quality phone to the extends that Xperia ARC feels like a little toy in front of it. Flap doesn't bother me at all and made the whole phone experience even better (as far as look)
You could always buy the Xperia S and then sell it whenever you want.
Good luck mate,

Flaps don't bother me also, when I'm thinking about using them.
What really bothers me is that, because the Xperia S has these flaps, this probably means that the Smart Dock Acessory that's available for both Xperia P and Xperia Ion does not work or is not supposed to work on Xperia S, which is supposed to be the company's flagship...

Yeah i'm slightly confused that Sony haven't made a dock for the S either. What with Ubuntu coming to Android this would have been an awesome accessory. Come home from work, dock the phone in and fire up a full fledged OS and carry on with work on a bigger screen. Obviously we can still do this with the HDMI out and the USB but seems a missed oppertunity.
i read somewhere that xperia s would work with livedock.. which is a lot better deal considering it won't go irrelevant once u upgrade your phone..

The sola is a whole other device with the floating touch thing and not really in the same ballpark even as the S and the P.
It's got only a 5MP camera
1Ghz Dual Core
3.7"
512MB RAM
No secondary camera
Apparently from what i'm reading: No Bravia engine
It does have the Novathor u8500 chipset though?
Sola vs S specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4408&idPhone2=4369
Sola vs P specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4408&idPhone2=4436
I think it's just meant to be a sort of a flagship floating touch phone with that being the main focus.
S is the mobile at the moment.
I have ordered it already and may get it in my hands by tomorrow.
Thank you guys for the suggestions.

Hello!
What's up? *insert ceiling joke here*
I'm going to tell you a funny story.
In January, I ordered the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S but it took so long to arrive and I fell in love with the SXS, so I cancelled!
I was sure to get the SXS but then I saw the P and asked myself 'do I really need a high-end model? As long as it has 1Gb ram it's cool for me. Right?' I got no answer.
The SXP looks very appealing... Not only for the dock, but for it's built and size...and in red is just stunning
I'm getting tired of waiting...and being confuse. I really want to try android... So many cool stuff to do.
I want to hear your opinions.

Dude.. Its not at all funny. It completely makes sense.
Frankly I felt the same thing as you. Arc S is a great phone and I always wanted to get it in my hands. But when SXS and SXP were announced I felt it is worth waiting for them.
Also I felt like 'Do I really need a high-end mobile?' (just like you felt). That is why I opened this thread.
SXP is a good one but its not yet launched.
Now if you can't wait to get an android mobile and if you can afford to buy a high end mobile then it is completely worth buying an SXS. Previously I used 'Galaxy Ace' and now am having a great time after getting the SXS. The mobile is simply amazing.
Also do check 'HTC One X'. It is also a high end model and it comes with ICS. But personally I love Sony. Also One X is longer and wider compared to SXS. Hence I went for SXS.

Lol in this case it's dudette.
I checked out the HTC One X and the One S but, HTC fans please forgive, it's not as beautiful as the SXS. Sony adds that mojo that makes you fall in love. Plus, I know SenseUI is pretty and has lots of tweaks however Sony's simplicity is pure win.
I'm going to wait a bit for the P, to hear about it from people who use it daily. Then I'll decide which to buy. I have to choose wisely, I'll be with one of them for 2 years

Hey! If you are going to wait for P to launch then there is nothing big to decide. Like I said previously, if you can afford to buy a high end mobile then SXS would be ideal option to choose. If you feel like high end mobile is not necessary then surely SXP would be the one for you. The point is both are quality mobiles in their range.
Even after the launch of P you cannot get proper opinions comparing them. Both come under different range. I am sure both users will say S is good (its sony's flagship afterall, isn't it?). Like I said, it all comes down to whether you can afford for it or not.
And it would be silly if you buy the S after the release of P because you like S more. I mean the wait would be meaningless, right?
Keep reading the reviews of SXS. I am sure you are doing it now. Also what do you feel about SGSIII?
I would say that the Xperia P is the smallest brother to Xperia S.
I was also thinking about Xperia P, but I wanted a little bit bigger screen, but with bigger screen, it means bigger phone. It's not very comfy to control the Xperia S with only one hand. I'm a teenager so I don't have big man hands.
And Xperia P was not available in my country at that time, and I desperatly needed a phone, so there was no other choice then Xperia S.
But I think I get used to this big Xperia S phone. It would be even more perfect if it wasn't that tall (tricky to control the phone with only the thumb over the big area of screen).
But if I went for the Xperia P, it would be like my old Xperia X10, with 1GHz processor, 8MP and same screen size, so upgrading wouldnt be that big of a deal, so I just went for something good when I already was buying a new phone in 2012!
Good luck chosing your phone!
I've using Arc for about a year now and now I lost it....!!!
I'm planning on buying a Sony Xperia S but I am paranoid becuase of the screen problem which is being discussed on different forum...!!! So my question is, " Is it worth to take chance...??? Should I go for it...???"
Suggestions guys...!!!
Well it's pretty much a lottery if you get the yellow screen problem. Also, if you get the problem, you always get it repaired as its an issue recognized by Sony.
I myself don't have the problem, but if i develop it I really don't care, as it could be sent in .
It's your decision. To me, I don't care, because it could always be fixed .

I was in similar situation. Being an SE design fan, got Xperia S. I just couldn't accept it after a week of trying hard. Phone felt too long, thick, heavy, lousy capacitive buttons, gorgeous screen, bad idea to have cover for USB port, etc. Got HTC One X and love it so far. Sleek like Arc, and the build quality is way better than any SE phones I've seen.
I miss the simplicity of SE ROMs but i guess i can go customizations soon. Waiting for screen protectors to start using it regularly.

Hi there
Could you be so kind to write a bit more comparing the two phones? I am trying hard to like my xps but coming from iPhone the hardware is a big step back. My mine worries would be the screen on the one s now getting used to my xps.
Kind regards

I tried the one x and it's normal htc. Give you the highest spec hardware and that's it. Love my arc and Xperia S way ahead of one x. Lol

While build quality of one X is better along with specs, I prefer my Arc over one X. At the same time I prefer One X over Xperia S. 4.2 to 4.3" screens are about the perfect size for me. Any bigger means stress on my thumb when pulling down the notification bar. Hope I will get used to One X screen size over time.
Unfortunately, Xperia S design has too much bezel before the screen starts at the bottom. That pushed the top edge of the screen very high making One X screen feel easier on thumb when using notification bar.
I just like Arc so much more and I might actually consider getting Arc C if ICS runs smoothly on it when it rolls out.
has Anyone felt problem with its thickness ?

I didn't have problem but after using Arc, it just didn't feel right to own a thick one. SE set the trend for thin phone with Arc and when everyone is making thin phones they went back to making a thick XPS. I am not sure what features made it be so thick and soooo long. HTC One X has all features XPS has and still is as thin as Arc.
I think its just the right thickness, but i like having a firm grip of the phone. Coming from HTC Legend btw
Screen is downright amazing, and the only thing i can name as a con is a steep adjustment curve from hw buttons to capacitive buttons.
Y'all have a nice day!

My say is No... After 3 months on Xperia S n its faults etc... i have nt got any yellow tint yet its battery issues n poor imaging which i heard not even fixed in ICS update now i'm thinking i should have waited further more... If u can wait little further n you want sony phone wait for next high end phones...
Apart from the above its a hign end phone with nice features... If u are really after camera in smartphone u will be disappointed ....My XS already fell few times couple of high falls , nothing hapened yet.. i have screen protector n case on( read few phone broke after fall where user removed screenprotector)

But in GB ... its not much changed from stoke vanilla... Any way i dont worry about stoke when its customizable with Launcher pro or aything like it:laugh:
Guys, the UI battles will get my thread closed (maybe)
Yes. It is a great choice. But you will have to say goodbye to it if it falls from your hand or slips out of your pocket as Screen will get a very stylish abstract like CRACK
Its design is too thin and glass is little bit thinner. So it can be easily broken in half.

Well, no it isn't.
If you like the phone, buy it. From what i've seen of the phone, it's certainly not the nicest on the market, and it falls short of other flagship devices in terms of spec.
Have a look around the XS dev community and see what the dev's are currently cooking for the device. I recently bought the SGSIII and the final deciding factor for me was in knowing that Samsung had a fantastic dev community - I haven't been disappointed so far ; )
Hello there,
I am thinking of buying this phone since I really like how durable it seems to be. So I am asking you for some experiences or opinions of this device and if it's really worth buying at all.
I have SE Live with Walkman and I really like it's front camera and dual speakers (which Xperia GO lacks), however, Xperia GO has non-removable battery which seems kind of useful for clumsy situations. I also like GO's ability to shoot pictures and videos underwater, but is it damaging to use the phone in seawater? Is the screen really that tough as people say? How useful do you think the phone really is?
Thank you for your opinions!
Cheers!
Xperia go is a really good durable phone with good hardware and official jb! But if u can spend a little more u i would recommend Xperia p (not waterproof!)

Thanks, but I don't really like the looks of Xperia P. Also it's not on sale here, so I don't plan to spend a lot of money for it.
And I also got some people with positive feedback on Xperia GO and therefore I decided to get it.
I've got Xperia Go and i'm loving it. Just 1 problem, dont be overconfident about the screen, mine got 1 scratch during the first 2 weeks and didn't did anything special, better buy a cover.

It's old model,i suggest you to buy non-water resistant Xperia L or M.
Or wait Sony release new waterproof smartphone with 3.5"++
Bought the phone and I am gonna stay on Gingerbread for a while, unless there is a good reason to update to Jelly Bean
So far, loving the phone!
hi guys i wanna know what's your opinion about your xperia.
i have an xperia u and i sent him to sony 2 times because he broken but i think it's a good cellphone.
Just love my P! It has been awsome since day one. Never any problems even when I have tried different roms over and over!

Im kinda confused.. I sent my sola to repair service now the third time. at the moment my sola is in the 3rd repair process and I'm using a Xperia Ray for daily use with Polish Blood ROM anf I think I like the X Ray more than my sola Normally I love my sola (even if the support by sony is ****ty and ROMs are never bugless because lacking sources..) but having a better cam + front cam + better RAM management + better ROM support is just awesome

I love my Xperia GO. The battery empties out quite quickly but I can deal with it.

i love my xperia U a lot.....
never had any problem with it....
using cm11 on it..
just loved it(except for less memory)....
I bought Xperia U one and half year ago! It's a awesome device, considering his price.
Xperia P, good phone to daily use. Nice screen, good camera, good sound, clear voice connections. ****ty battery.
I own a Sola, Nice hardware, bad software.
Got myself a nexus 4.
I beginning to love my Xperia P thanks to the devs
The stock ROM was laggy, with a lot of bugs... Bad experience... Now I have CM11 and it works like a charm
Very fast, with good performance with almost good battery life. Of course, battery life depends of usage.
I loved my XSola but after it got 3 times repaired I don't want to have itanymore, just too much trubles. I sent it back
Really happy with my Sola even if the ICS update pretty much destroyed the battery-life, made the phone extremely laggy and lead me to look into all this rooting and custom-rom business. Currently enjoying a smooth experience with CM11 and battery life seems to be not too far off from the original stock-GB.
I'm either extremely lucky or my phone is abnormally durable because I have not yet bricked it despite fumbling around a lot trying to figure out how to install roms and flash kernel. Also, the phone has been subjected to pretty extreme conditions and gotten away unscathed; high temperatures, low temperatures, high humidity, shaking and rattling, all kinds of gases and fumes, strong electromagnetic fields and radiation.
Size is close to perfect and my only complaint is the low amount of ram which is becoming an issue with newer apps. I've been following the news about Xperia Z1 Compact's successor, but the price will probably be bit too much for my taste.
They could have bothered putting some more extra RAM, the battery is also a bit undersized but hardly as troubling (still gets through an average day fine). The screen size and quality is a big pro, so are lightbar notifications with the right software (talking about which, the power LED is extremely dim, did I get a bad phone or is it designed this way?)
Having paid like 120 € for my U, (but the same place was selling the Go -that actually has worse hardware- for 180!!) I think it was worth the price, on par with the year older Optimus One P500 a friend bought and got me interested in Android
Then again I'm biased by my first Android phone being an Ace 2, with a similiar architecture but 1- (potentially, given the right software) outperforming the U in almost every capability, 2- having switched after 4 years of iPhones and 3- nothing beats free products :laugh:
I like my P, it's good looking, durable (dropped it few times) and incredibly fast with CM 11. Battery capacity is small though but I can deal with that.
Previosly I had Xperia X10 Mini, oh boy that thing was a beast.
There's no phone in the world like Sony's.
They give best feature at cheap price.

Well, i got to say that Samsung's are the best , but Sony's phones are the most elegant ( also i think that the illumination bar is a great idea, the size of the xperia U is well "thinked" ...if i want a 4.5 inches , i'll buy a tablet)
Never the less, i got a locked bootloader , it's something i could'nt choose as i was buying it. That point is a shame !! :crying:
i've got an xperia u, a good year and a half old now
inconsistent battery life (sometimes i get 12 hours, sometimes i get 2 days both with medium use) and that stupid illumination bar (why nobody managed to create something that permanently shuts it off is beyond me) are the biggest cons
i like its build quality, size and design. for its price it was the best deal back then.
currently running a jb rom on it which is smoother than stock ics but functions like usb tethering and wifi hotspot don't work which is kind of a bummer. it's another pet peeve of mine, ten million buggy roms got released over the past 2 years and not one of them work perfectly.
