Are you leaving? Post your farewell here - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hey everybody, this is a thread were you can say goodbye if you are going to leave your device.
Im leaving Xperia Ray now because I did get a good deal on Xperia U. I have liked to be a part of this awesome community, and I like the roms alot. The reason why I bought a new device is because FXP discontinued Xperia 2011 development, and I wanted a new and fast device.

Im leaving as soon as i find good deal.
Reason is that i dont like this small screen and now i need at least 3.5 inch screen.
This is great community and there are manny good mods.

I will leave when I'll get a new phone (hopefully a nexus)
And I won't have as much time as before because I want to do more in Nexus 7's forums :good:

I have Xperia Mini Pro.. And i'm planing to buy Xperia V, cos someone said before, small screen drives me crazy

Well, maybe i'll stuck in this section for a long time. Because i'm saving my money to buy a better PC.
Different from you guys, i don't like big phone, my damn hand are too small to use big screen. I just hoping you guys didn't get bored seeing me around. :thumbup:

I also don't like very big screens.
4 inches is maximum for me,but it's such a big phone for me.
I think I will stay with my LwW atleast half a year.
But when I'll see a good deal,maybe I'll buy an newer Xperia from 2012 or 2013 series.

But the phones are really small, you are right guys! If you own a tablet like a Nexus 7 you may notice it
I have Android 4.2.1 on my nexus 7 and on my sk17i and if I type on my N7 and answer a sms on phone I think: "The letters are too small to type on them?!" Next time I need a bigger screen! :good:

Looking forward on htc one x+ btw

Damn! New miniPro have bravia engine, exmor R, front facing cam and HD recording.
ill buy one for sure!!
I wonder how mini it will actually be - seems quite bigger
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
Exact same size, with mini pro being 9 grams heavier but a bigger screen, 3', the site has full specifications.
Both look pretty cute, they have not mentioned the Android version, I dont wish a new dissapointment because of the updates.
RAM and processor are upgraded only slightly. Doesn't this mean they could send an official Gingerbread to us later in the year (Q3 2011) when they release these? I just can't imagine the human-resource, financial or technical difficulties in sending an update to us of 2.3 since these new devices will start on 2.3...(exactly as we should have been on 2.1/2) ...
waiting for it in indonesian market
Naa...it's too big, and the older one is cooler! ^^
and this is probably why they dont include upgrade for us...
they've been planning the new gen for mini and pro... too bad huh...
thank god my U20i sold... and maybe just maybe im going to get this new gen minis or maybe other brand.
I like Xperia mini pro , it's very cute but so big. However with android 2.3 and many technologies of Sony, I will but it. I'm a fan of Sonyericsson
Does anyone know when it's coming out ?
I was going to buy the Mini Pro that is currently on sales but since this one has better Hardware and comes with Gingerbread I'll wait for it. Is it going to be the same price ?

This is shameful on Sony...
They used us customers of the Mini and Mini Pro as guinea pigs to test their phones, and then simple dumped us several months later for much superior versions they could clearly have done in the first place (with not much of an increase in base price).
Been a loyal customer of SE for around 6 years or so now, but since the release of the PS3 they've gone SO downhill...all just lies, false-claims and betrayals of their loyal customers.
If you were wise, you won't buy this phone either..
My next phone will be a Samsung or HTC for sure...
this ist soo amazing!!!! the multi four corner.. is great

Mint is a phone NOT a tablet. Its a similar device to the Hayabusa, but with a larger screen.
Do I buy the device I have available now or wait for an unannounced rumor? The choice is yours.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk 2
Okay, there was a recent rumor from 13x in the ICS thread, and since no one wants to wake up the thread that was made earlier about the Hayabusa, I will throw his quote in here...
unknown13x said:
Hayabusa is confirmed to have 8960 chipset with Mint despite all the rumors. So that's confirmed. I know people will ask why not Pro version and such. I don't know. It will have microSD card slot now. IMO, I'm starting to feel like they will now use the "arc HD" for this device Though I could be wrong, just IMO.
Click to expand...

My thoughts are...if this is rumored to be much more expensive than the S, I don't quite see the price/spec comparison.
Yes, it's got the S4 (which in another thread it's appears to be not too much of an upgrade), but it seems to me that it won't be all its worked up to be, and in the end I'm still glad I didn't wait .
Yea, it's got a card slot in it, but I don't see the problem with the S not having a slot? with USB OTG you save loads of space, and the internal memory is large enough to hold anything I need at least .
It's more of "do you want to wait" than "should I wait" in my opinion. Like it always is, if you wait, something better will always come along...when the Hayabusa eventually comes out, you don't think there will be rumors about the S5 phones flying around? It will be released around when the S5 devices could actually come out.
Not saying that it won't be a device to watch for...I just don't think it's much of the upgrade people think it will be, and certainly doesn't make me think twice about getting my S.
/twocents
Edit: S4 does have LTE support, so I guess that could be a plus, but for my use I can't really care and still not worth a rumored price gap between the devices.
There's no info about hayabusa yet...
However, There were some leaks about an unknown device before, which looks like Arc successor

Judging by the image, the front is identical to Arc, but the body is much thicker => much larger battery...why? I guess the reason is that it will have LTE as qualcomm s4 supports 4g
It might not be available in countries which do not have 4g network.
Besides, until hayabusa realeases, there will be other rivals which might temp you away from Sony phones like the upcoming Galaxy S3 or iPhone 5
Does anybody know anything about screen display dimensions?

In addition, it's interesting to hear that both of new phones will be equipped with S4. What feature will make mint_i that expensive then?

The battery is not ideal , but since I am outside all day the screen is a godsend, the phone is great design and quality wise. I do run sync and screen at 100% and I can usually get to the evening, the phone does charge back up very quickly though, 20 minutes and I am back over 50%.

With my average usage the phone lasts about 2 days without charging. Seems to be quite smooth and béazing fast (coming from the X10.) I like this phone because I needed the bright display too cuz of my work and I'm very satisfied with it. On the contra I can point out Sony and their "always-being-late" with the updates. JB is out since some time now and we're only getting ICS now for a phone that was created in the ICS era (correct me if I'm wrong.)
As a summary I can only say what I already stated, that I'm satisfied with the phone, cuz it applies perfectly for my needs.
Battery is not good for pro uses! My data is always on and I play angry birds often but I just charge my phone onetime In a day!
Its based on your use! If you want play heavy games like asphalt you will have problem with battery but performance is amazing and you can trust your phone to play them!
My opinion is buy it if battery is not so important for you and if it does matter buy galaxy nexus or SII or xperia s!
But I suggest you p for white magic tech and a lot of amazing things that you can not use them on the other phones!

Thanks guys for the suggestions... I have narrowed it down to Xperia P or Xperia S . Galaxy S II was an option but I always like Sony cause of Sony's stylish cellphones... But I am a power user. So I am thinking of going with the Xperia S.
What do you think about Xperia S?
Sent from my LT18i using Tapatalk 2
I own both XS AND XP, after using the Xperia P I regret buying the XS, the build quality and screen are a lot better than the XS! Even though the prossesor is clocked at 1Ghz it performs similar to XS, hell even ICS feels smoother on the P! Thinking about to sell my S now :-/

I also love my Xperia P. The display is awesome. First I also thought about the S2, but with all the plastic and the ultra - contrast it looks like a toy. Not to forget the wear of amoled displays. The Xperia P is fine, only thing that disturbs me is the lack of custom roms.
But AOPK and FXP said that they are working on it.
I'm really looking forward to CM10.
Thanks a lot.
Yes I agree there is very few custom ROM and kernel for XP ...hope FXP starts work on the P soon ..I am using CM 10 in my ARC S .& JB is just too good.it feels like I am using some kind of super fast phone..Xperia P needs more support..
I am thinking of getting the P & my bro is taking the S .
What abt battery life ? Am really concerned about battery life of XP ?

Apples to oranges. Do you want a touchscreen jitterbug device or an Android based smartphone? That's what it comes down to at the end of the day. How about you go to the store, play with both, and come back and tell us what you chose and why.

Meaningless comparison/data. Actually using both and buying based on one's particular usage is the only comparison that matters.
Totally different devices and experiences. I don't think anyone should try to compare the two. First choose Android or iOS then decide from there. That said ...

you coudl get a good phone, like the G2
or you could get the iphone, aka baby's first smartphone
I don't know about posting in a G2 forum because the majority of people here are going to say G2.
That being said I have an iPad for Apple stuff and my G2 for everything else. Even though people are a little apprehensive about the LG UI it does grow on you (I was a big Nova launcher user). It really depends on how you use your phone.

Go with the iPhone 5s. That phone is pretty cool like the other side of the pillow.

Thanks everyone ! I'm leaning more towards the g2 , hopefully that stays there lol ! Also , I hope LG updates their phones !
Ya got a lotta moxie posting that here, kid!
But seriously, I entertained the iPhone 5S as well. I don't want a smaller screen, though. And while I'm not addicted to flashing and modding my phone, I would like to have that option. If LG lags with updates, I can just grab a ROM from the community here.
Go get the 4s update to ios7 and save $200 its the same thing. People got to understand its not hard to make a phone benchmark high, its also easy to make an iturd look fast because it does absolutely nothing, all it has to do is render a few small icons on a little dippy ass 4 inch 720p 5 year old retina display! Take an ijunk and put half of the features this phone or the s4 has and it will hardly run!
If you have to ask this question you should probably buy an iphone and be done with it. The advantages of android will probably be lost on you.
Anyone asking that question here should buy an iPhone. Enjoy your purchase

Android L and Sony

So Sony aren't famous for bringing out update to devices quickly
When do you think they'll release it for the z2?
My opinion? Next year, they've already teased the Z3 or " the next big thing" coming in Q4 which will probably have android L on top
I'd love to see what you guys think

I don't think Z3 will have L. If it does, Z2 will get it just a month after the unveiling of the Z3.
PS Android L isn't even out yet, its still in dev preview. It'll take around 2-3 months for it to be finalized I believe. 3 weeks at minimum.
I agree. I can't wait to give it a go on my nexus 7

Don't be so sure Z2 will get everything Z3 will have.
I bought Z2 and still have Z1 and believe me, Z1 doesn't have many things (at least not officially) Z2 have.
That's the Sony (new) policy...
6 month cycle and push new device like crazy for the few first months, then they forget that device and put all their capacities to new device....
That's the life...we'll have to accept that...

I'm just waiting 'til a new CM or carbon rom comes out with Android L.
Sony has been not doing well with ART, so it will take a while for Sony to roll out Android L, I think.
I doubt we'll see L on the Z2 this year, not from Sony at least.
They have to put an ugly old-fashioned skin on it first...

18 month support from sony for a flagship. Similar with samsung.
How long is CM taking to get kitkat stable which came out last Nov, over 6 months plus and still not there.

Less important than if they will do it. They will.

Well, Z1 did receive Kitkat right after a month Z2 was unveiled. Here we are discussing next version of Android, not all the goodies.
Ofcourse most goodies will be there, I think Z has ALL the goodies Z1 has. Although Sony does release two flagships a year, the main focus is always the first one than the later.
Like Arc, S, Z and now Z2.
While Arc S, T, Z1 aren't so popular ones.

The TouchWhiz and Sense are quiet old too. The only competitor I can think of which brings a new UI almost every year is LG.

After checking out Android L I think it will be best for OEMs to ditch their skins and add addons using Play Store. Well as for Z2 goes our hope lies on CM and FXP team.

It reminds me of a gutter on the side of a house.
Meanwhile, Xperia Z1 Compact surprisingly gets 4.4.4

Touchwiz renewed for more flat design this year. Also, Sense changed its style for Sense 6.
It's only Sony that hasn't changed its design for years
Xperias are always given a update contract which lasts anywhere between 6-36months Xperia Z2 is a flagship device meaning that it should get 1 year atleast and android L Is releasing soon so Z2 has to get

Yeah man, Sony needs to update their UI style. But I would say they dump it in next update and bring stock. That will speed up the update time. I want them to follow Motorola way. See how quickly Moto G got the update to KitKat.
