My dad actually bought it recently, so I had a chance to play with it a bit. It's a great phone, and it has a great camera.
Only problems I heard you might have with it is that the plastic around the camera tends to crack. Also, I've read somewhere that RAM might be problematic at times. No trouble so far with the unit I tried, though. Compared to some other phones and their problems, however, I'd say you have nothing to worry about

Don't forget to leave a farewell message @nikosgreece:thumbup:

in my opinion "XPERIA P" I absolutely better
1ghz dual core cpu(equals to 2ghz single core processor)
Sony withe magic technology
Sony bravia technology
Perfect design (arc is better in design I think)
Multi touch, up to 4 fingers!
16 gb internal memory
No sdcard but u can attach USB flash disk
Higher resolution
Mali-400 gpu(4 cores)
8 MP cam
1080p @30 fps video recording (awesome quality)
Gets jellybean, but arc won't
I think "p" is around 2 times faster than "arcs"

The characteristics of that phone are golden. But however, look at the battery. Only 1305 mAh. In comparison, our Xperia X8 has 1200 mAh. Taking into account the heavy OS it has, immense amounts of RAM, a monster CPU, and a large screen, I'd say the battery couldn't even last half a day with normal use. I think it isn't even user-removable.
Don't get me wrong, on other things I think the phone is a masterpiece, but you would need about 50% more battery power to handle all that. Reviews on the net seem to concur. Powering a battle tank with an AA battery would be a perfect analogy.

If you can afford it buy the Xperia S or the Xperia SL. Super phones but costly. They are worthy opponents even to iPhones and Galaxy S3

Hows everyones phones?

So, Im planning on buying this phone, But, Is it a good phone, I heard this phone beats the One X in benchmarks, But, Is it laggy? Hows the battery?
It's great!
No lag and the battery is like other smartphones I think.
There's a problem with autofocus when recording in stock camera-app. Can use another.

Hey there,
I bought the P880 based upon the following reasons:
Near Retina screen
5th low power core
Removable battery
Looks like SGS2 and don't like the girly pebble looking blue SGS3
What I have found after owning it for 3 weeks:
Battery life is great, last full 24 hers on a single charge, with the exception of 1 day this week where power amp was running in the background and I didn't notice, it wiped my battery out in 3 hours - always carry a charger if your daft like me.
Its crashed twice, due to me being a fool and pushing it too hard - its just a phone after all.
Its very thin which is both good and bad, good for style, bad if you sit on it
No lag between screens and using apps - I play a lot of heavy games apps and they all run smooth as silk
The screen definition is superb - crisp, clear and always bright
LG UI3 is OK, not as refined as Samsung, but I like the fact that they don't pre-load as many applications as Samsung
All round a great buy, very happy, looks great and performs better
Hi,
Replying late. But yes today I took a benchmark test. Restarted my phone and first thing I ran the Quadrant. Was happy to see the results.

My phone works great...and battery is good and very good if you underclock cpu to 1.2ghz. even after underclocking cpu it is very smooth and no visible unplayable lags even with high end HD games.
Also with recent upgrades camera auto focus work fine if you dont believe check photos taken by my phone in best pics thread...
Compared to HTC OneX LG 4X have extra 64gb sd card option (so 16gb internal + 64gb sdcard) and battery upgrade option which is not possible in htc.. rest of the hardware is same GPU,CPU,RAM,..etc.
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
My phone works great,no issues at all. Just few min ago,rooted it
Only thing bothering me is the Camera both Pic Quality & 1080p video....Damn, on low light it just terrible !!!
i'll try the MODDed Camera app and see any improvement can be made.
Overall I'm satisfied !!!

samsung gs3
I would go for the SGS III.
Well if you are clumsy i would recommend Xperia S but if you need Quad core (i doubt) just buy SGS III.
But if i would be buying new phone i would go for some HTC
SGS III has 16/32/64gb internal memory,1gb of ram + Android OS, v4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich),buy it if you have money!

SGS III
coz have quad core processor :good:
Even though I absolutely hate Samsung with my heart and passion, get it.
Sony will dump the XPERIA™ S.
It probably won't see anything after Jelly Bean, if it even gets it.

why an htc??
Go for SIII
Like so many top-end phones of this generation, the Sony Xperia S does not let you use memory cards
Also processor is quad core in SIII
Camera has more features in SIII than Xperia S
Also samsung is known for their tough and sturdy design so even if you drop your SIII... I guess their will be no problem
Take the S3, its better supported by samsung and xda.
Also the Galaxy S3 has Corning Gorilla Glass 2, so you can't even scratch the screen
I recommend the Xperia S. It is wsy better in design than sgs3...........only bad point is that it has dual core not quad core..

T-Mobile offers the SII for free with a two year contract. Of course, you will have to pay the taxes and activation fee, but will be within your budget.

Try looking at the Galaxy S or Galaxy S 2. Anything lower than that would not be good for HARDCORE GAMING
Both are above budget well i use galaxy mini for gaming .its quite well..i think the devices i stated abive will do well too

It's an awful Froyo device. Also it's not ICS ROM capable. My friend sold his Optimus Me and got a HTC HD2. Xperia Tipo is the only device that supports 4.x in that price range.

Don't buy Micromax. They are never going to provide any OS update for their phones.
Thinking about your budget and your wants, I just don't think is possible. Why not save up some more, and get a S2. Is there cell service providers in India that offer discounted phones in exchange for a contract?

Xperia V vs. Ion impressions

Hi all,
I have the red Ion (lt26h) and now a nice black V. Here are some quick impressions:
1. Battery life: the Ion seems to happily last a few hours longer than the V. I listen to music and Whatsapp a lot.
2. Screen: the screen on the Ion seems to have better contrast, deeper blacks and the V looks slightly yellowish
3. Audio: the music output via speakers sounds better on the Ion. Via headphones, the V has more distortion
4. Camera: the rear camera on the V is sharp, fast and virtually zero lag. The front camera blows monkeychunks and feels like a bad joke - poor quality, not sharp, etc.
I'll add more as I discover them... anything in particular you guys want to know?
The Ion is definitely a "premium" phone. But the V will be with me often, especially when out in the field where I know I'll get drenched in rain.

Ive switched from note/note2 to V and T aswell. Loving the switch so far, running cm on the T and stock on V. For some reason the V feels a bit better in my hand than the T. The volume rocker and power button is better placed aswell on the V. Waiting to see new sony phablet aswell but so far very happy with my V minus the batterylife since im used to note2.

[Q] buy Xperia SP or not ?

hey guys
im just gonna get suggestions from you all, the XSP users
is it valueable if i buy this XSP ?
coz im just fadeup with my XE
is XSP doing well in gaming ?
The xperia SP is pretty old now, you'd probably benefit from getting a xperia Z as they're around the same price

Are you kidding me? The xperia SP beats the s3 in every aspect the s3 has a slow exynos CPU and Mali 400 gpu

Well, i actually never had any multitouch issues, i bought my SP 2 weeks ago so that hardware fault must be fixed already than the older xsp's ... And lol, even tho it's "old" (it's not even old cmon lol) it has a powerfull cpu and a great gpu (same hardware on moto x) that does completely fine at 720p... i'd say if you'r a gamer go for it as i bought for the same reasons

Yeah I think there is a difference between the released xperia SP's Sony might have fixed small issues hardware wise and some stores might still be selling the older versions
Sent from my TF300T using XDA Free mobile app
SP does have this touch problem when it's charging..
but overall it's still an awesome mid-range phone
I would say a NO. Its outdated in terms of its life and wont get any updates in the future. Go for the Moto G which will get officially updated to Android L and maybe even the Android version after that.
Let's just make it this way, if you want a phone for it's specs go for sp, if you care for android updates moto g, Both are awesome and you can't go wrong with either
