Sony Xperia S/P/U/Sola/GO Thread

Seems like it would be good competition to the current P and others.

Really? J isn't similar to any of the Sony phones in that range.
P is way better than J in just about every possible way.

Seems like I might have made a mistake then.

Why do you even need a case? I don't use any and it works great.

White color was picking dust and scratches on white are easily visible so it looks bad

 

[sam9953]

yeah, even I have white colour and it does pick dust easily.

It cleans faster than it picks dust thanks to the anti stain coating on the body. Just wipe it with a dry/wet cloth (depending on the stain) and it's all clean in a second. Also keeping it in the sun will remove any dirt as it's UV activated.

So how are the rest of you with the Xperia S taking your nand backups? It is annoying how limited the recovery options for this phone are.

I don't.

Kinda off topic, but what do you guys think of this ? Sony Yuga the 2013 flagship with 5 inch Full HD screen, 2GB RAM, Quad Core krait CPU, 13 megapixel Exmor RS camera, glass front and back.

 

[YKW]

Actually can't really see much of the device there, looks a thin black slab of shiny chocolate
Specs-wise it's top of the drawer.
When is it releasing? Q1 2013? And for such a powerful device JB 4.1 is a must (if not 4.2).

 

[randomuser111]

Yes Q1 2013.
Will ship with Android 4.2

More pics

Looks sexy. It better have more responsive keys than the Xperia S.

Awesome! Finally Sony looking ahead of the competition for the very first time.

 

[sam9953]

You guys talking about 4.2 makes me jealous that our Xperia S has not got even the update for 4.1, till now.

Well, the Yuga is the first SONY flagship so that explains the difference. This year's entire lineup was Sony Ericsson developed and just re branded as Sony. October onwards development has shifted to Tokyo, Japan where now phones are being developed alongside other Sony divisions like Vaio, Bravia, Cybershot,Playstation etc.

 

[sam9953]

^ Bro do you work for Sony? You have so much inside knowledge.

I guess you must be knowing Sony's entire lineup for 2013 as well then? Mind sharing them or you want to keep them secret?

For Xperia U users, Version 1.0 is out for AOKP ROM (locked BL)!

[comp@ddict]

Xperia S still hasn't received Jelly Bean. Starting to think Jelly Bean is really a LONG LONG way away
