I'd like to see NFC , HD Resolution and 3.5 inch screen! because its a ray :
-3.5 Inch Screen
-HD Resolution imagen the ppi!!!! current ppi of xperia ray is 296ppi bump to 416 ppi!!!
-Waterproof??
-1Gb Ram
-NFC
-Part of NXT series (plz?)
-1.5 Ghz Dual Proccessor
-Play Station Certified!
That would make an ultimate phone which is small thin and cute XD
Yeah, but Sony first has to invent a "Shrink"gun .... you know why
lolS but it may be possible in the future
You are aware of the Xperia U right ?
More like xperia SX. Too bad it is japan only.
http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/05/09/xperia-gx-and-xperia-sx-announced-by-sony-mobile-japan/
right
but what do you want to see in ray 2 or ray s or ray s2
This one looks quite the same as Ray but with better hardware:
Sony Xperia SX SO-05D
sorry, didn't check the entire page from previous SX link
yeah, the next Ray is SX.
If they release it world wide, the phone top will be narrower (without tv antenna) which is making the phone look surprising handsome
Xperia ion HSPA. It is goddamn cool.
Sent from my ST18i using Tapatalk 2
3.5', NFC, video-out, 1gb ram, dual core (open), hd screen, under 9mm
Physical aspect of the next ray that i want
- Same curve shape
- Small dimension (sx size is okay, just slightly bigger).
- Physical home button and button arrangement (It's better than the transparent strip of nxt series In my opinion)
- Dedicated Camera Button
It would be nice if we can have a small dedicated keyboard to plug inside micro usb slot and double as external battery/charger
I want Megan Fox in next version...

ROFL ,,, I guess we all want that
I would like it to have the same design but with a larger ram and more internal memory and a higher mp camera oh and a better speaker

Hmm, a dedicated keyboard, better cpu and more ram

mm xperia SX, i love this phone, is the real succesor of the RAY.
Same design, more hardware.
Design makes it Ray. Not others.
1. Same size and body shape. Even 3.5" is much bigger. And current body style is very beautiful, distinguishable.
2. 1Gb RAM, maybe faster CPU - just to run ICS smoothly. Ok, let it be two cores, just because of current marketing trends...
3. Dust and water resistant. Without that ugly yellow/orange pastic/rubber everywhere, diving ability, IP67 etc. I just want to not be afraid of rain when I'm riding my bycicle, camping, sleeping drank on the street
4. Same MicroSD slot. I hate when they remove card support and put ugly 8GB of ROM inside, while my current music collection is about 10Gb. C'mon, guys, flash memory costs nothing now, why do you create such stupid limits?!
That's all. I don't need higher camera and screen resolution, better sound, camera button and so on.
Current Xperia model line doesn't contains something I can call "Ray 2.0". They do great top models, but it's too big for me. They do very interesting and fresh design, but use limited hardware (480x320 screen, limited ROM, 512 RAM...)
So Ray stays unique, stays best for my needs.
I too like the Xperia SX.
If they give it a slightly more angular look like the ray has then that'd be my next phone...
I was thinking ... hmm the ray would be a lot better with MHL, 1gb Ram and NFC... Ah hello Xperia SX
That said I'll be holding on to my Ray until christmas at least... Perhaps I'll take a Samsung GS3 at that time... Unless Sony sells the SX in Europe :-D
Does the SX have an Led notifier?

Now that MWC showed HTC,LG...next phones for spring/summer 2012, we can say that the Xperia S is the best phone out there...why?
-Screen is not monstruous like the 4.7'' of the One X,and it has 720p resolution while One S is still qHD
-12mp! all other android phones are limited to 8mp.
-Dual core cpu 1.5, yes it's not the quad of One X but again who need 4.7''?
So in clear xperia S beats the One S in screen resolution and camera hands down.
It beats the One X in screen ppi and of course dimensions!
SGS3? well like the One X it will be huge with 4.7 or 4.8'' screen and anyway it won't be out before June!
Though WE NEED DEVS so CM9 and MIUI can make the Xperia S perfect

There are lots of things to love about the Xperia S (I've got one on pre-order) but you should know that the Xperia S also has a fixed battery and a micro SIM.

As yardglass pointed out the Xperia S has a non-removable battery and micro sim. Also the Xperia S does not beat the HTC in screen resolution as they are both 720p also it is lighter and thinner though a bit longer and wider. And no before you say im a HTC fanboy i've got the Xperia on pre-order already, just wanted to clarify some things with you
Sorry for battery and microsim.
I was talking about pixels density, between 720p 4.3'' and 720p 4.7''
The Xperia S beats the iphone4 but the One X is beaten by the iphone4,so in terms of optimal graphics:
Xperia S > Iphone4/s > One X/Galaxy Nexus > Sensation/ One S > SGS2

I believe it has the highest pixel density, yes. I really have no need for more than a dual core phone either. I don't even believe that the OS handles more than that at the moment, and I can't think of any app that would need that processor?
Xperia P :?
I'm bout to test it I have a confusion with both of them :O
I changed my order over from a Galaxy Nexus to the Xperia S. Nexus is sitting staring at me on my worktop, but it's going back tomorrow in a pre-paid bag.
The camera, faster processor and looks were enough to snap me up. However I do see that Xperia/Sony android development looks nowhere near as active as HTC/Samsung/ect.

If it makes you feel any better, there's been a couple devs come out and say they're getting this phone (I believe DoomLord is one of them).

Oh, you're on XDA too
Good choice. I think that with the Xperia S we'll be seeing a very high amount of developers. It's a very powerful device at a relatively low price, it has excellent cameras and an awesome display.
The biggest problem with the Xperia Arc and the rest of the 2011 family is that it wasn't a very powerful handset at release, it lacked RAM, internal memory and a faster processor. And the unlock tool from the Arc came a few months after the release.
The Xperia S however will be unlockable right away, we'll have a great set of resources to base ourselves on, and it has really good specs. And it's generating tons and tons of buzz around the internet.
I really did like the 2011 line of SE Xperias.
But I'm a bit apprehensive about the 2012 series because of the few qualms, as I see:
Non-removable battery
Non-expandable storage
Micro-SIM
Last-generation hardware specifications
The support for the phones being from Sony henceforth (whose track record for having a strict lock down policy on their devices is quite well known).
I'll wait and see what Samsung has up their sleeve with the S2 successor and if that's disaapointing, I'll go for the Xperia S (or Ion, if they do plan for an international release).
Sony Mobile, is not Sony. Sony Mobile still is the same set of people it always was, nothing will change. They're very committed to delivering all updates quite fast, you really shouldn't worry about that.
Micro-SIM: It'll be the standard for 2012.
Non-expandable storage: Isn't 32GB already a huge amount? I've always been fine with 8GB on my phone and 16GB on my standalone Walkman.
Non-removable battery can't be a problem either if there is a hard reset key combo. It's not been a problem for the iPhone or Nokia Lumia 800/N9 either.
I like this phone, but no LTE for AT&T bands and the CPU are a bit of a let down.
The 720P IPS 4.3in screen seems very nice and I would likey trade my oled+ 480p screen for the screen it has.
P.S I hope all buying like there new phone.

It's a relief to hear that Sony isn't helming the mobile development division. I was afraid that there might be lock-downs and restrictions enforced (akin to locked bootloaders, hence, inability to flash custom ROMs) seeing as what they do to their PSP and PS3 product ranges. But I suspect Sony might somehow wiggle in their proprietary standards like they always love to (ATRAC3Plus, MemoryStick, PSVita Memory Card, etcetera).
Furthermore, I sure do hope Micro-SIMs become the standard as I do a travel a lot and I'd hate to cut my SIM cards to size.
And about the non-expandable storage, it isn't about the storage space per se, but it is more related to how I can swap an SD card with the data I need rather than copying it to the phone via a PC (thus making PC a requirement). However, if the storage space happens to be full I'd have to delete some data, and picking what to delete might be a tough choice, especially with no PC nearby to make a backup. I think this might become more evident when everyone tries recording videos for extended time in 1080p on their Xperia S which takes up more space.
I believe non-removable batteries are alright in the short run, but in the long run, there might be the necessity for the use of higher capacity batteries or backup travel batteries. Plus, if the battery decided to fizzle out, I couldn't possibly swap out the battery to fit in a new one without handing it in for service, which I believe is the iPhone user's bane.
Cheers, mate.
Only thing that irks me is non-removable battery, but hey, it's a worry not something I actually need. Never had an issue with my iPhone 3 battery, never replaced my HTC Desire battery (only ever pulled it for rebooting).
The ability to fast charge the battery to 80% in 30 mins may or may not have something to do with this, unlikely, but even if not it's a nice feature.
only thing that irks me is the usb/hdmi on opposite sides with those crappy plastic covers. if only the S was a bit more like the P we would have powered docks and car mounts... that was my biggest let down... seeing the P design makes me wish they thought the S through a bit more.
I am quietly waiting for reviews!!
Screen quality (viewing angles,colors,sunlight...), speaker volume, quality feeling...
Large battery - check
720p screen - check
Stylish and elegant design - check
made by Sony - check
Yep this is the best Android phone for Spring 2012 imo.
The best review / comparisons I've found are on PhoneArena. I'm being offered the Experia S as an upgrade for my existing contract, but unsure whether to wait for the One X or the Galaxy S3.
But again, as they're all essentially governed by the chipset/software, so does it boil down to which one you like the look of and what goodies they have on board?
Never easy, is it?
Non-removable battery
Non-removable battery is very bad. If the phone stucks, how to shut down?
Should we wait a long time till to battery reach 0%?

10-second press (or a combo, not sure anymore) will force-reboot the phone, it's hardcoded.
I want 3.2 hd disply,1.2 dual core snapdragon processor,8MP autofocus canera with xmor R sensor,front facing 1.3MP camera,LED near front facing camera(not on top),ICS with 4 corners,not more than 9mm thickness,white magic tech,divx support and ....
HD on 3.2 inch display is close to impossible, because DPI would be really big and then building it would be quite hard. Yet, it can change in the future.
LED on front camera....is it actually needed? You can't actually make 3G video calls(without an app).
Actually, the current Mini Pro is a great phone at the moment. I have no complains except for ICS, but we should be having it soon.
I think Sony will focus on bigger phones now, but if they ever make similar phone I'd like a 3.5" screen with at least HDPI resolution and a little better camera with dual-LED flash, because the current camera is bad at low-light conditions, and of course, keep this beautiful QWERTY keyboard.

what i want is an sony xperia s, but with a hw keyboard
The same plus:
MHL, native 2 way call record, ICS and a slim design, because my loved mini is fat
I don't want any other feature in this mobile which is Made in China(best save money and purchase a Chinese mobile)
fix some bug likes back and menu key ,more slim but not to big ,8mp camera hd emm but i love my xperia right now 'pocket rocket'
i want 3.3inch like xperia ray, not less than 9mm thickness, qHD resolution, 8mp camera w/ exmor r sensor, 1ghz dual core snapdragon processor, floating touch technology, white magic technology, dual speakers, hdmi, ICS (upgradeable to jellybean) w/ xperia s style launcher, 1080p video capture, waterproof, shockproof then call it "xperia M" lol
hi all, i wanted to know why you choose the sxs, i did it for the simple reason that i love sony phones..and i like to upgrade my phone..
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Screen (HD + readable in sunlight) + good (theritically) camera + good processor + ICS ready + Sony normally doing good music players
It's design! It looks so sleek from almost any angle. (like the transparent strip at the bottom)
A good CPU as well, although not the best out there, it is optimized well and really responsive.
The HD screen of course, with it's amazing pixel density.
The camera with dedicated shutter key allows for quick and fast photo taking.
Because S2 felt cheap and plasticky. SXS felt great when using.
I had read and seen loads of review before and after the sxs was launched. Let me tell you seeing it on the monitor and holding it in hand are not the same thing.
I went to a local electronics store to see the phone, once I saw the actual thing and held it...it was love at first sight.
Dont Buy Xperia S if...
Xperia S is really a good phone from display 342 ppi, 12M, looks etc...
But dont buy it if...
1. You want to make video calls...it does not support it
2. Photos are really shaking mostly...very poor low light photos
3. Battery Drains like indian rains
Because I liked the matte feel, design, camera, and also because it is comparable in price with HTC Sensation and cheaper than SGS2. I only paid $450 AUD, which is 350 euros.

No point of understanding this!
You check it out yourself, find what you feel good and bad and decide to buy/reject.
Each users have their own preference/taste.
It looks like a small television!
No but seriously,
- Supersleek design
- 12M camera
- HD screen
- I like Sony
- Able to rub it in my iFriends' faces.
reviews
i chose sxs as an upgrade from htc hd 2 with gingerbread thanks to doom kernal,
upgrade was a toss up between the galaxy note, htc one x and the htc beats sensation xl,
after reading the reviews the camera on the xperia s was by far the best out of the bunch along with the screen.
the hdmi capability and the fact the screen was so clear made me jump ship from htc to sony,
i didnt want a phone the size of the htc one x or galaxy note,
the only bad points on reviews about the xs were the covers fro hdmi and usb port, even though iphone, htc and samsung dont have covers on theres, the fact it was non removable battery, again same as i-phone (and im sorry 32gb is plenty) and the fact it had a dual core not a quad core, sorry but why would i need a quad core in my phone, there are no apps that need it and likely not going to be until my next upgrade,
plus i love the look of the xperia s in white compared to the htx one x and the galaxy note was horrible to hold for me,
despite the fact sony have let us down with the firmware updates i love the phone to bits,

I got the SXS because it was supperior in various ways to the SXP (which I had as an choice also):
- HD screen
- bigger battery
- 32 GByte storage
I went with Xperia S cuz
1. It's a SONY !!
2. The sleek design (looks like a Sony Bravia )
3. The screen !!!
4. The 12 mpx cam and also the fast capture functionality
5. The build quality and the premium feel in the hand
6. Stunning UI
And
Cuz its the first SONY device after 10 years
- Sony build quality, One of the main reasons I don't like SGSses.
- Good components and testing.
- Good battery and charging system, battery-life is a different thing. One trolling process is enough to **** it up (widgets!).
- Get's 4.0, STABLE. A perfect base for slimming down and tweaking.
- Camera
- The tags
- Screen, LCD fanboy, I like reading in the sun..
- Original UI, personally I don't really care about that. In the end my Android device UI looks the same on all phones. LauncherPro4TW.
cuz' I am a fanboy.
and a simple reason that Sony makes thing beautiful.

Sony Xperia P - Best phone ? unsung hero ?
As a previous user of the iPhone 4S and Samsung Galaxy SIII,as well as a string of HTC, Apple, Nokia, Motorola, Samsung and other phones, I feel reasonably qualified to say that the Xperia P is the best phone I have ever used.
To cut to the chase:
Positive points:
1. Size is perfect. Not too big, not too small
2. Weight is really low
3. Build is awesome
4. Phone is metal. Metal phones are the best. Plastic phones feel cheap and nasty. Personally I prefer stainless steel, but I'll take aluminium as well
5. Screen is large - 4", but is fitted to the frame in a remarkably compact body
6. Sim card has its own slot - hallelula!
7. Phone is truely beautiful - did I say this already Sony hit the ball out of the park for design on this one (much nicer IMHO then the previous anemic Sony Ericsson phones, like the arc)
8. display is bright, crisp and clear
9. Screen is lovely glass and feels great to use
10. Sound quality great
11. Call quality great - with noise reduction (isn't this the main purpose of a phone) ?
12. Slick to use. ICS available fast and good implementation
13. sony bloatware is limited, and much less noticeable then Samsung, HTC, LG or Motorola's stuff
14. All the power you ned is there (2 x cpu). Sure 4 would be nice, but I notice no different in speed with the Samsung SIII
15. 1gb of memory, even the SIII only has 768k
16. 16gb of storage
17. SAR rating only 0.78 (lower radiation into body)
Development points:
1. google still lags behind Apple in auto-correct text technology when typing.
2. Would be nice to have micro SD card
3. Never say no to a bigger battery
In summary, beautiful, fast, amazing screen and ticks all the boxes
This is a Sony phone right (i.e. not the big two - Apple or Samsung).
Its also not even Sony's top phone .....
The silent winner. Sony really should have promoted this more.
Hopefully it will learn from this design in the future

Yeah, lousy Sony marketing
"Verdict
We like the Sony Xperia P a lot. It looks nice, is well built and offers a great set of core features, with dual-core performance, 8MP camera and sharp display, all wrapped up in a modest sized handset. Add in some unexpected extras like microHDMI connectivity and NFC and you're onto a winner. It's not without its issues but we think this is a cracking option for those looking for a small but capable Android phone. "

I agree that > 2000 MHa batteris should be de-rigor now though!

a pretty bad one as it rips off the iPhone 3G. Something which Samsung is suffering in court in the US for
PS: I don't want to give the impression that I am a Sony fanboy (although the P has me thinking ). The Galaxy Siii was really an outstanding phone, the things I really didn't like was:
1. Awful build for a top flight phone
2. Slightly too big
3. Bad text prediction on typing, even for google (wants to insert dots before words for some reason...) . Really annoyed me
I have one too...
And I just thoght the're put a sh*t instead of a baterry in this beautiful phone...
And feel lag a little bit... 4.0 FW can't run "Cosmis flow" - (live wallpapper) in a moothly way.. :sad:

Xperia U - $180
Xperia Sola - $205
U over Sola
- cheaper
- looks more cooler? (at the pictures)
- removable battery
- higher pixel density (280ppi vs 265 ppi
- front facing camera
Sola over U
- larger screen (3.7" vs 3.5")
- sd slot
- floating touch (is this useful?)
GSMARENA indicates that Xperia U gpu is Mali-400MP and Sola is Mali-400, now which is more powerful or it is exactly the same?
One more thing. Is it comfortable to text with this two device?
I have a sola but I had to pick between the 2.
I have a lot of music on my device so I needed the microsd slot. I don't like extremely small screens so I did go with the 3.7 as my last phone was 4.0 and my phone before that was 3.5 and it felt crammed. The floating touch is useful for me as florida is humid and cold during winter so I need to wear gloves, also I skate frequently and need my mitts to keep my hands from freezing when I'm balancing downhills.

Go to Xperia U if you want more custom rom. The specifications is almost same! Now you can use directory bind to put data games on Pendrive via USB OTG.
Thats all
