the fifth one i read already that gave this phone a bad review. even in comment section you will read a lot of disgruntled buyer of this phone. how can sony plan to be number one when they can't even make a descent mid range phone. if i were sony i would repair the flaws of this phone asap or more backlash will come that might affect their future phones.

I am a sony fan ever since but its phones like this that makes me wonder why I still am... Lenovo P700i kicks the butt of this phone out in the open, I don't know what sony is doing but this definitely won't get you on track... A piece of advice, you can never sell a phone on name alone there is too much competition already, even IPhone that has an apple logo on it is feeling its decline already so sony please get your act together and produce solid phones again, I really loved my sony k750i during its era, one of the phones worth bragging during that time, but now really your giving me lesser reason to purchase another sony phone....

It has an S1 processor that's why it is slow. They would have done better using the same Novathor processor of the Xperia U

The Ace 2 doesnt cost that much more and offers dual core A9 and 768MB RAM. Thats a no-brainer really, unless you only want good looks. Sure Xperia J and Miro and Tipo does work but they are seriously underpowered and laggy in the UI.

I am not sure if the author of this review is aware how cheap Ace 2 has become, its very cheap here in Philippines at least, just above Desire V, almost no difference that should be a dealbreaker, the only problem is the somewat tiresome old design of Ace 2, it loos like a copy of an iphone copy.

those products were made by two different companies.
the only similarities are their name (Sony), but the rest are different.
so do not expect any Sony (Ericsson) mobile product will have the same qualities as Sony Walkman products.

don't judge Sony by this phone. it's so much worse value than all there other phones which are mostly good value. it's like the galaxy s3 mini and how that is terrible value

The problem here is the bad hardware, but with a dual-core Krait this would fly...!

Didn't even pass through the cons! Just saw the 512 MB and knew this phone is crappy. Really Sony? Is it that difficult to give 1 gB of ram????

This is why Sony (Ericsson) is struggling at the moment.

"but we'd prefer to spend a few bucks more than live with the lag any day of the week."

WP8 is much better!
