Sony Xperia S review Comments

I wrote about my disappointment with this phone in the opinions a few days ago. I am just hoping things will improve after a sw update. Battery is still poor. Phone is sluggish and freezes now and then. Installed Apps simply disappear after a change to Go Launcher. YouTube behaves weird, crashes on rewind or ff and sometimes launches automatically on its own like a ghost App.

i guess its a right move not 2 add quad core in d phone requiring 4cores to run an android version i mean lol i can run windows 7 on a quad core chip lolzz so dual core is more than enough

Hitman, 30 Mar 2012Great phone had it for almost a week. - The looks of the phone is incredible and eye-catching... moreWhen you say "- Battery for first 3 days is a bit of a concern but now after a week has past it improved like 2 times the first 3 days." could you elaborate on the number of times you need to charge in a day?

I am not sue why everyone raves on about quad core as if it is a life saver. Android needs dual core just to run the os because it is not an optimised system. Just look at all the issues with people that have different mobiles trying to upgrade to ICS and finding they are worse off. In that regard Sony is correct in focusing on getting it right from the beginning with current hardware. This is why it is the Android to buy now.

The Xperia S, combine with the great image quality, fast capture, shot to shot time, full hd capture etc, your N8 won't stand a chance to users who want speedy shutter to capture those special fluttering moments. You cannot capture it with the N8, it will be lost forever in oblivion.

I have this phone and i have to say that...
Good points: Music player (AMAZING - THE BEST THING IN THIS PHONE); realy good camera quality; screen (is bright, colourful, sharp, good in direct sun light, realy sensitive, and the viewing angles are not a problem, at least for me); good performance (fast, responsive, no lags, frezze or problems, everything looks realy optimised) but the most catching thing is the design of course!
Bad points: sensitive keys and the usb and hdmi ports are realy annoying.

This is an all round good phone, quad core doesn't really matter it does the job perfectly and when it's upgraded to ICS it will do an even better job. Not bad at all with the competition it has to go up against.

Can you tell me where are iphones,samasung phones, nokia phones, htc phones ...., made!!
There is NO company make their phones any where else than China!!& it doesn't mean that they are low quality, there are special companies wich make high quality phones, it depends on the phone maker request
(like foxconn (chinese company) which is the manufacturer of the iphones)

Great phone had it for almost a week.
- The looks of the phone is incredible and eye-catching. One of the best phones in terms of looks in the market.
- Performance is great. No lags, no freezes. Very smooth overall
- Camera is superior better than the N8 i can say.
- Screen is Gorgeous very sharp, Crisp and clear images. Super Amoled Plus and Super Amoled HD looks like crap next to it ' Nough said'
- Battery for first 3 days is a bit of a concern but now after a week has past it improved like 2 times the first 3 days.
For those are concerned about the battery don't be !
Battery is great and will be even better through the days and don't forget ICS is on the way and will bring even more battery improvements :)

Shame for Sony to launch such a beautiful phone with the user-spying OS Android, without removable battery and on top of that all: to manufacture it in China ...
