Got a Xperia U although not really used it yet (waiting for ICS), but now seen the Xperia J for the same price, I know the U is dual core, but then the J has micro SD and a bigger screen, how much weaker is the processor?
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4930&idPhone2=4437
I cant really tell much difference to my single core Motorola Defy overclocked at 1GHz and my dual core Xperia S running at the default 1.5GHz ill be honest. There is obviously a difference but its not a breath taking one thats for sure.
Way weaker. It is just an redesinged xperia 11. Uses the same outdated laggy ics rom. Nothing compared to nxt phones

From the review of miro and tipo (which share the same internal as sxj). People calling it snappy.
Personally there isn't much different between q single core arc and my sxs for normal use. Probably in heavy games. But still I could play GTA on my arc easily.

that device isn't very good... the same Adreno GPU that X8 has, kinda sucks, and the processor is kinda slowwwwwww
I personally would go for the Xperia U, is clearly faster, better CPU and GPU, the same amount of memory the lack of memory card slot, and the smaller screen can make you think twice before you buy it but belive me, it is more than enought
I was going to buy the Xperia J until I seen the spec. The adreno 200 gpu is very weak and would really struggle with any decent game or even rom.
I now have the Xperia U and if you can get over the fact that the 3.5" screen is the exact same width as the tiny x8 then it is a great phone. The screen detail is very good and the phone sits perfectly in the hand.

Xperia U looks very stylish, but J is newer. IMO get J because you ll sell it for 0,5 y or 1 y for better money.
U definitely

I want to choose between these two phones. I live in the states so the s3 is only dual core but it has 2gb of ram. Plus the ion you can't remove the battery. The plus slide is the ion is 100 USD's cheaper than the s3 and had 12mp camera ad opposed to the 8 MP3 camera on the s3. Which phone would you choose and why?

i used to believe i would stick with sony...but they are incredibly slow on updates...xperia s and xperia ion should have came out with 4.0 ICS since release...sony (and sony ericsson) has always disappointed with updates and i would expect the same to occur with jellybean. That's ended up being a deal-breaker for me. Also there doesn't appear to be any top developers or root access being up for xperia ion.

Can anyone confirm or reject that Xperia U, although having a good spec sheet, performs badly in games?
Has anybody tried MEGA JUMP on his Xperia U?
Run it, and share whether it runs smooth or lags...

Errm, the U is a ENTRY LEVEL phone. What did you expect from it? It's good enough for most stuff, but it's clearly not going to be a graphical powerhouse for a £150 phone.
If you want that, you pay more...

but the chipset, GPU and the resolution (which comes to count in the amount of pixels to be rendered) are the same as Xeria P, isn't it? set aside RAM amoun, which I actually managed to get over 220MB Free RAM when system starts, thanks to root and removing bloatwares, they should ne the same, should'n?!!
Should put in the title which phone it's about ....
But looking up the spec sheet the P and U are the same but feature a single core mali 400, no mention of a clockspeed comparison but the galaxy s2 featured a quadcore mali 400 and its graphics were only average when compared to adreno 200 series and powervr 540.
sony could also be partly to blame as the adreno 220 in the xperia s under performs its spec sheet as well.

it IS a huge difference, but not when you are running GB and you have MORE THAN 240MB free RAM..!!
When you just start your phone, and no other app is running yet, and you have 240MB Free RAM, then you cannot say that P has more RAM than U, because you have sufficient and enough RAM at that time to run a Mid-Range game like Mega Jump...
F... NovaThor chipset, I had Xperia Neo before, it easily outperformed this goddamn phone, although havin single core cpu...
we should also compare the system reserved ram ...
i have 773MB of my 1024MB as Total Ram in Android. so there are 251MB for System (Memory for i.e Camera and 3D Graphics)!!
i dont think that U takes 251MB from 512MB for 3D Graphics.....

I've said this once, I'll say it again, on the Linux kernel, free RAM is wasted RAM.
I have an Xperia Play (phone designed for gaming) qcom msm7x30 w/ adreno205 that has the same amount of RAM as the U, and quite frankly, the Mali400 in the U rips the adreno205 to pieces.

The adreno is the Xperia S is one of the best optimized. It outperforms all the other adreno 220 phones. I have no idea what you are talking about. Look at the S compared to the Sensation in benchmarks and the Sensation gets worked.
Do I need to sell my Sola for Xperia J? is it worth it?
not worth it. sola is better
J is just like xperia 2011 devices. Old hardware, laggy ics. Also the rom on it is like ics for xperia11 not like ics for p/s. Sola is much better, dualcore hardware and will get ics with the latest sony ui and much smoother.
Go for sola!
Sent from my MT27i using xda app-developers app
I totally agree the Sola is much better.
Why the Sola is better
1. The CPU is dual core and much stronger on the Sola
2. Sola has a higher pixel density
3. Sola has 8GB internal storage, double the Xperia J 4GB
4. Data rates on Sola are faster, see them compared below
5. Newer bluetooth on Sola
6. GPU (graphics capacity) is MUCH stronger on the Sola
7. More advanced multtouch on Sola
8. Sola is thinner and lighter IF you like that
Why the Xperia J is better
1. Larger screen - IF you want that
2. Much stronger battery

It is worth it if most of the time you will be checking email and browse internet on your phone (just like me). The battery life is good and the screen is good too. And last but not least, the design is beautiful.
Sola is better and faster phone, J is low budget single core phone with bigger, but not better screen.
And V is a beast phone but with much higher price.

Agree with you. Spec wise Xperia Sola is better (and cheaper, in my country). But if a user have the same use case as me, Xperia J might be better. Don't forget about the battery life too.

As in my opinion,Sola is better than J in terms of performance and also in terms of battery.
Remember our devices use NovaThor SOCs so they have reduced power consumption.
And J uses a ancient CPU as well as GPU.(Cortex A5 :silly: and Adreno 200:silly
These specs are similar to my Galaxy Mini which is nearly 1 year old.
This is just my opinion,rest depends on you.

hey all, im currently using xperia mini pro and planning to sell it and buy a new phone.
my target is xperia sola or xperia p. dont tell me to buy other products i only want sony :good:
which do you think is better?
cons of sola i know:
1. sola has smaller screen 3.7 inch instead of 4.0. but i think that would be big enough for me. cause im using a 3.2 inch screen phone for a year now.
2. 512mb ram instead of 1 gb ram. but i think that would be no problem if supercharger v6 script applied.
3. 5mp camera instead of 8mp camera. which is fine for me.
4. weird looking screen. is it just me but the sola screen can be fall of anytime soon
5. floating touch. to me this is useless im not gonna use it anyway. its gonna consume battery. is there an option to switch it off?
6. i heard there will be no jelly bean updates for sola? but P gonna have it? not sure if this has been confirmed or not.
cons of p i know:
1. doesnt have sd card slot. i know it comes with 16gb internal storage. but i heard the real one is 11gb only available or less than that?
2. uses micro-sim slot?? i have been using lg optimus one, galaxy note, xperia mini pro, those three are mini-sim. what is the difference between micro sim and mini sim? will my sim card be compatible with the micro sim slot? cause i dont wanna buy a new type of sim card.
3. most people says xperia p battery life sucks compare to sola, u, s and so on?
now tell me honestly which phone should i pick? no biase answers please. personally i prefer P because it has a bigger screen. but is it worth it to add $90 to go for the P instead of the Sola?
bump

Xperia P looks better in my opinion, what really made the phone stand out for me. but no expandable storage and the battery kinda suck to be honest, but for me this isnt really a problem so i went ahead and bought one. Also your sim will work with the P if you cut it to size, or ask your carrier for one, they will usually give you a micro sim with your same number, and contract etc. free of charge, i recommend going to your carrier, because i broke my P when i put in a mini sim which i attempted to cut to size, luckily it was replaced with warranty!

About 11 gb, but you fill up the rest with apps and such, so it's not all that bad. And I'm not certain on this but if you root and use Roms you could probably get access to the whole 16

Xperia S is better, but it doesnt look as nice in my opinion and it wasnt in the price range i was looking at, and if you're considering the sola and P then the S might be a bit pricey on your budget. If you want specs, get the S. Depends on your usage though, the S also has a better battery life i hear.

Go for P. Of course!
Why? The reason is already you mentioned above.
But i think the reasaon is u must go for P is RAM! 512 mb and 1Gb it's totally different.
If sola get a task, open application, games , and etc, so the ram is almost full, but xperia P still have half of ram free with the same task.
Don't think supercharger is make more free ram. Maybe ur sola can more smoth and fast but it take a lot of ram.
And the last thing is because sony will bring their update first on the XP than Sola
It's really frustated when xperia P already have ICS and we (sola, u, go) must be waiting till 2 months later.
and if u go for sola u must be waiting again like us, for the jelly bean update, just share

This is a close call.
T has bigger screen of 4.5 but in tft, S has 4.3 led with slightly more pixel density. T is with 16 gb and S is with 32gb. T has 13mp and S 12mp.. close. T has dual core krait processor with same 1.5ghz.
If you see S is more promising to me. But I'll advise you to goto some store and see by yourself, afterall you are buying.
and one more thing in xda T has seperate forum and S shares with sola, go and other phones.
Atrix 4G, CM7 based TopSmarts 1.3 rom, Faux123 1ghz kernel
