Will be placing my unboxing videos, boot up speed VS RAZR and SGS2, and physical comparison between the RAZR and the XS up to YouTube in a few hours.

I can't get back to you guys on the battery life test yet, this one might take a bit, wanna condition the battery first, if it's necessary at all.

To summarize though, I was bringing the phone to work, and in about an hour divided between surfing the web + listening to music, and a few 1080p video clips thrown inbetween with the screen brightness set to 75%, and video channeling between 1080p and Youtube, streaming HDMI, the battery dropped from 100% to ~80%

If you use the phone normally, and not as wildly as I did, it should last a day easy, but gotta test it out myself first.

In the mean time, have a few night shots, a macro and an indoor shot I took with the phone (Not sure how much Imageshack can deal w/o resize)

Night shot 1 - http://imageshack.us/photo/my-...00002gs.jpg/

Night shot 2 - http://imageshack.us/photo/my-...00004zv.jpg/

Indoor shot - http://imageshack.us/photo/my-...e00011z.jpg/

Macro indoor shot - http://imageshack.us/photo/my-...00012iz.jpg/


PS:
Per photo shot in 12MP mode can result in file sizes up to 4MB+ depending on scene complexity, which translates to image compression being nowhere as severe as that of the 2011 family

For those into a teeny bit of cellphone photography, Sony has also added full on ISO controls on the phone, from Auto, ISO100, ISO200, ISO400 and ISO800

Hey Zephyron where did you get yours? and can you please give some updates about the battery life? and how do you find the battery set up, can it really not be removed by the user without voiding any warrant or something?

Got my Xperia S

Ran Quadrant for the first time and hit a score of 3229 despite the HD screen handicap

Can't wait for root and Custom ROM solutions, the platform already shows a lot of promise

Anyways, have some screenshots

this phone will set the new standard in 2012. Fast processor, slim design (still grabable), and high resolution camera. the transparent line in the bottom of the phone is far the most cool deisgn detail so far. I got to get me one of those.
