Hi All,
Recently purchased a Mini Pro SK17i from an ebay after reading the reviews both on here and other mobile sites.
My current phone is a rooted HTC Desire Z and I wanted to stay with hardware keyboards, this is my first Sony Ericson
Anyways I love the phone other than the screen doesnt seem to sit right on the bottom right hand side (Cannot attach pics due to post count!)
The phone was sold as new and is in mint condition other than this, my question is is this normal???
The seller has responded saying hes sold 3 others which were the same
Thanks for any advice or input given!

Mint condition is a term used to describe something as unblemished (without marks) etc

That looks like a broken case.I think you need to go to SE service centre and have it replaced.

Either the guy you bought it from lied, because that is not mint condition. Or, it was damaged in transport, whether that was by courier or whatever. But that is definitely the housing of the device, and it is definitely broken.
I would say send it back saying you want a refund, especially if that is how you took it out of the box. That is not as new, or mint condit. Even though the rest of the phone is in perfect condit, that part isnt, in which case it should not have been labeled as "as new" or "mint condit".
As new, means that it has not been used much and is in the same condition as when it was BNIB(brand new in box).
Mint condit, means that it does not have any scrapes, scratches or damage to any part of the phone, and is in the same condition as when is was BNIB.
The difference between these to is usually mint condition has been used more but is still in like 9.9/10 condition.
So now it is up to you what you want to do.
Cheers,
Evil.
Thanks Guys, having not owned one of these before I wanted to make sure.
I be raising a dispute with the seller as Im not happy with this, despite that I love the phone!!!!!

omh dude,get a refund because it will trouble you because the menu soft key button is open
Edit : or buy a new case for your new phone if you are too lazy to get a refund
XDA Premium sent this message from owner of Sk17i
I have the same problem, if you push the screen it will stay for a few minutes inside its space, then he'll go outside...
I think the only thing we can do is send it to SE, or put some glue xD
To answer your question that's not normal, in my phone I don't have that problem.
Thanks all loving my new replacement sk17i more than my desire z!

Hi,
I opened this topic because officially Sony has not given yet a release date for the aforementioned products.
I live in Italy, which is basically the third world for anything remotely technological, and I gave up asking various clerks for the Xperia Z Ultra (launch was due mid September worldwide, here nobody knows nothing about it), let alone asking for accessories.
It might be the same as asking for a microprocessor at a grocery store.
So I sent Sony an email, I tweeted them, but no response whatsoever.
I scoured the net for dates, and as of now only Clove in the UK seems to have a date (September 13), but even that's not sure 100%.
All I want to know is, as a friend of mine is going to NY on September 17th, if I could tell him for sure to bring me back a SBH-52 and a SmartWatch 2,and possibly how much would he pay them, and maybe where to search for them.
I know I'm asking a lot here, but maybe there are some New Yorkers here that could give me an advice...
My friend is not as tech savvy as us, so I don't want him to run around in circles to search for a unicorn that will be on sale next month...
I only saw price for the sbh52 on UK webstores, they talk about 64£ with VAT for mid September. Couldn't find any US website, or maybe didn't look so well. So with today rate exchange it would be about $100. Didn't look for the smart watch 2.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
The SBH-52 is priced in Germany at 64€ ~ 85USD, and the SmartWatch 2 at 179€ ~ 235USD.
But usually the devices here get the same value in USD then in Euro, due to VAT, customs and generally higher price level.
So if it will be tagged at 149$ (just as an example!) or whatever, we get the same in Euro.
Both are not set up with a release date yet. But for me its quite evident/presumable, that they will be avail together with the XZU Europe/US release as both were hardly advertised with.
I know, if I had to guess I'd say 199 USD for the SmartWatch 2, and around 70 for the SBH-52.
So it sums up to 270 USD, a little more than 200 euros.
If they make it available from September 17th or before it will save me 70 euros, not bad uh?
If they throw the SmartWatch 2 at 149 USD I'll be more than pleased...
P. S. Does anybody know how much costed the last SmartWatch at launch?
If i remember right it was a SRP of 129€
Smart Watch 2 is selling for about £60 on eBay here in the UK
What they're offering there as SM2 is not the real 2nd version - it is actually the first.
So the price is not a decision-making basis.

I have been looking around as well for price availability and release date. For a week or so Sonymobile.com/gb had a price for the SBH52 as £79.00 with coming soon with a Buy now option which didn't work. They have a corrected it now and it just says coming soon.
As you might know clove.co.uk is selling it for £64.99, while amazon.co.uk seems to be out of stock and will dispatch as sson as they receive them. Amazon is selling it for £56.03..I have placed an order and just Waiting
I have read most probably this is coming out at the end of September. Well we will see.
Has anybody in the uk recieved there smartwatch 2 yet from what ive read the release has been pushed back till Oct 1st,
Almost 20 days since the first post and no news yet.
My friend is in the states and I'm afraid he won't bring anything home...
I tweeted Sony but they didn't reply, I asked the support centre but they say they don't know about release dates...
It's getting frustrating.
Yep, I have one. Can post pictures and answer questions

Not yet, but I might get one soon.
The watch vibrates and lights up like the old one, but the vibrate is MUCH more powerful.
I haven't had time to play so far, but Watchit! allows you to receive the notifications from apps you select

I have posted a picture. XDA do not allow new posters to post links, so you will need to replace the space with .com/
And I have the Smartwatch 2.

I was looking on negrielectronics and they have an opened box xperia z ultra for 595.50. Does that mean it was returned or what?
The boxes don't come sealed they are open so the oem headset can be put in.

Not sure about negri electronics but my new Xperia z ultra didn't come in a sealed box though it's brand spanking new. There was no trace of any seal on the box either. I checked with few other local (I'm from the Netherlands) owners of XZU and they had the same observation.
I think you are getting a good deal. Go for it!
