This review is god for the next nexus device.
But this bit of it is deal breaker for me...
Wireless charging has also been rumored for the new Nexus device, as well as a few negatives - like a non-removable battery and a max 16GB of storage with no microSD slot.

the wireless charging sounds good, but only 16gb memory.....no thanks

I think the SD card thing was proven to be a false rumor. I doubt that Google will just remove one of the biggest positives of android over competitors.

True,
But if check this out it has no details for the Storage expansion on the xperia s. Now I may be wrong but that suggests to me that with 32gb internal they think there is no need for external card.....
so does the xperia s have an external expansion slot? And if not, there is a precedence for makers not including one. And what about no removable battery? Seems very i(diot)phone like to me...
EDIT
I can confirm the xperia s has NO sd card slot....no chance for expanding the memory....bad move from sony

Yeah I do agree it's a very bad move, but let's wait and see lol.

ok, just ordered an xperia t for me and another one for my misses...
will be here in the week, see you guys soon, and keep up the good work!

Glad for you man Just hope you will get used on capacitive keys, as I hear, it needs practice for them. On Xperia P they are great really great, not sure why they didn't use same on other models
Also, sorry to see you leaving one of the few, good, helpful and respective users with great answers. Have fun on T section

Yeah dude, sorry to see you leaving. One less person with a brain on this sub forum :-/
But hey congrats on your new device and good luck with it

Wait for Xperia V, Its better than T
Ps: I did not see your choose

Why?
Just because of water/dust resistant?

The only problem with sony phones is they have a low battery backup....

Well my xperia t arrives in the morning, so it will mostly be goodbye from me, however, my daughter is getting this neo so I may still be knocking about

Look
Why the Sony Xperia V is the real new flagship

I advise you to wait nexus optimus g or lg optimus g

The Sony Xperia V loses out to the Xperia T in terms of storage (8GB of flash storage versus 16GB for the Xperia T),

And it has a smaller screen....I look forward to getting my "T" in a few hours....

I was thinking of switching to xperia t aswell but already saw announced xperia Odin which has quad CPU and better battery

Well as the thread title say it's time to say good bye to everyone in neo & 2011 xperia sections I guess =)
I will be here till I release the final build of pureness rom this week and that's it I guess.Still Xperia Neo section will be my home in xda always.I started android modding in this section with not even knowing what is root & learned a lot.All the guys were great as always,supported a lot.
In this moment I specially like to thank Zdunex25 :good: taught me lot of stuff about android themeing and a very nice guy =)
It has been a fun ride with Xperia Neo V :good:
sayonara guys
ps.if anyone who is a fan of my pureness rom and coming to sgs3 then in coming days you can have the rom in s3 too

Hello,
Going to keep an eye on this thread, hopefully everyone will use it for their goodbyes. If it looks like it's being used more frequently I will make it a sticky. Only problem with stickies is they don't automatically pop up on the app so sometimes they get overlooked.
Greg, I haven't been a mod over here for long but in that short time I've seen you offering help often. I appreciate that and wish you luck with your new phone!
Thanks,
DSB

where are our colleague developers Paul and Slade!

guys does anyone knows where Slade is?? it's been since he released gintonic 2.5.1 not shown and not updating his work!
and by the way Paul said in his post he wont develop because his phone is burnt by a Chinese charger what can we do for our friend Paul as a reward for his work?? do you believe that we should do our best to provide him with a new x10 mini pro??
please let us try to get our best developers back to our community!
You know the number of posts and visitors in our section is really down. I'm convinced everyone's bought a new phone. I'm starting to think that'll happen every time we get an Android phone and come on here.
Have to say I do want that new Mini, very cheap in my country.
but there are people who is still using this mini's hope they still provide support for our mini's!
Paul's minipro got burnt and he's not continuing work. We probably feel more sad about it, than he does. :/
I too am very sorry. Since I do not where to call
Paul, if your phone don't get fixed, you will buy another model or you will help us and keep this device updated to at least 6 months?
You can try port ICS to us, they made it work (or are making, I don't know) on Nexus One. I am no dev, but it should be easier knowing this.
If not, thanks for all your hard work with us here.
Sorry for english

I will not try to port the ICS
You know, there is a way.
Firstly, in other phone threads on here, it's quite normal to contribute a little donation to a dev. When many people do this, it's a nice thanks. Sometimes they do this to buy the dev a new phone. Also, this could be done to encourage a dev to make ICS for us. Some of us who have donated to devs, receive beta roms long before general release. If this is the last option, we could make a small donation (amounting to a nice amount after many people do it) then we get ICS...
just a few ideas....
But, paul, just one thing, do you think you will buy another x10 mini pro, or other device? Like Xperia ray or Xperia mini pro?
Ps.: slade isn't even online on Windows Live Messenger, so I think he is on vacation or something like that...

You know, that it's just a dream? You can't donate and "pew pew laser magic" we have ICS. It doesn't work, because of our hardware. We already have problems with some apps on Gingerbread because of our CPU, how do you imagine ICS on our phones?
If you really can't live without ICS, buy a new Mini(pro) (not X10 mini (pro)) and wait for the ICS update by Sony Ericsson (they promised something like this, but I'm not sure).

I really would like to donate, but I am 14 years old and I live in Brazil, it's so complicated to create a Pay Pal account and everything else.
Hope you buy another X10 Mini Pro. I am here for 7 months, but I really like what you do for us, Paul...

I have 7 thanks and 20 posts. (now 21)
I won't explain, what I've written before, I think it's quite clear.
Btw. I was reading this forum half a year (EDIT)before I wrote my first post(/EDIT) and I am knowing more about this, than people who write 300 times "wifi doesn't work".
In Java I would write it similar to this:
amount of posts != amount of knowledge
Arc, I think I'll buy one next year, maybe in April, or a Xperia Pro. Anyway, independent of with (?) device you buy, I say good luck to you, hopè you make lots of good ROMs

Are you serious?
There's still a difference between Gingerbread and ICS...and there is still a difference between X10 and X10 mini(pro).
X10 has a 1GHz CPU and about 300MB RAM.
X10 mini and mini pro have 600MHz and 128MB RAM.
Even if they could run ICS on our small phones, it will possibly lag like hell or be very blurred.
I remember Owain trying to run Honeycomb on our phone and failing because of the screen resolution. You know, that our phone's screen only has 320x240 pixels?
A year ago nobody thought about Gingerbread on our phones, because there even wasn't a way to flash Froyo. There generally haven't been ROMs that weren't based on the stock one.
Nobody but Sony Ericsson had a doubt that Gingerbread could work on our phones.

Because honeycomb was specificly made for tablets. ICS on the other hand supports multiple resolutions (phone&tablet). So i doubt that will be a big issue.

Just Liked on Facebook. I've had mine since Oct. I really do love it. I really really hope that Sony releases ICS very soon. I know the UK website said it was in the works. But impatience is a mutha!
I actually have a second Sony Tablet S for sale if anyone is interested. It is brand new! I bought two, yea two. I first bought one at PC Richard in NYC, when I came back to the car my friend had told me his friend works at another store and could possibly get it cheaper. Well my impatience decided to open the box anyway, MISTAKE! I ended up meeting up with his friend they day after and bought it for about $150 less. When I tried going back to PC Richard, since I had opened the box, I wasn't able to return it.
If anyone is interested, Please feel free to email me at [email protected]. I live in the NY area. I would like to sell it for $375, it's the 16GB Wifi model.
keep going guys !!!

ChaosfirZen had phone stolen- Thinking of Donation Drive

ChaosfirZen, one of our few Rom developers for Xperia S recently had his phone stolen (He made the Mooded ICS rom). This means he is unable to develop for the Xperia S anymore. My question to everyone is would we have enough people to donate some money to try and get a replacement for him. Rom devs for our phone are thin right now, so I feel it is important to keep the ones we have. Let me know what you guys think.

I don't even know the guy or own the Xperia S (yet), but I'd pitch in solely because I like where Xperia is headed.

I don't know him really either, but I did enjoy his Rom and i pmed him to see what happened to it. Sad to find out his phone got stolen.
A terrible experience for anyone to have. I'm definitely behind this cause.
Donating to him. He developed well for the Xperia Arc and he justifies his hard work by producing good ROMs
Nvm. I just Borrowed Xperia S On My Classmate. Since He hacr GS3 maybe ill continue dev. After 1 week

This is not a good bye (A Message for devs)

Hello,
XDA devs and users
I am a proud member of this forum from last 2 and half years and i have learnt so many things from you people during this period. Recently i bought Moto X and i am not doing any experiments until warranty gets expired on this phone (just want to play safe here ). So important things is here, my neo v is doing nothing but seating in my drawer. So this is a message to all devs if you want to test some werid stuff i am available for you, now bear in mind that i am a working professional so i might be late to reply but i will try to be helpful in any way possible.
Thank you very much to all devs out there to make my neo v awesome as possible (Special thanks to @mikeioannina he kept our phones alive). And as the title says this is not a good bye to neo v forum.
