It's a vast topic and I've only had my Xperia T for a couple of days, so I can't properly quantify battery life just yet, but here goes.
Overall, I'm going to say, "no, the Xperia T isn't better than the S III." The S III is, for me, a more complete package. That's not to say that the Xperia T is bad, not by a long shot, but it doesn't feel so all-encompassing as the S III. The S III wins on points rather than a knock-out, but from the top...
The Xperia T's screen is beautiful. It's sharp and responsive and has BRAVIA. The Samsung's screen feels overly saturated, but it's also a beautiful one. I've found the S III's screen to be a little bit more responsive than the T but I prefer the Sony colours.
As far as performance and feel go, both feel fluid and responsive and both will very occasionally jerk or stutter, but the S III does it that little bit less than the Xperia T. I feel like I'm splitting hairs here. It isn't a deal breaker for me.
The S III's camera is very impressive indeed. I was a little disappointed with the Xperia T's camera; more pixels, but not set up from the factory to be so fast. With some tweaking (enable touch take) it's much better, but when working with images, the Xperia T is noticeably slower. Sure. Fewer pixels to shunt around memory and a more capable processor (depending how we measure it...), but this is where the Xperia disappoints me.
What they look like is personal preference, but at the moment there are way more cases and accessories for the S III compared with the Xperia T. The S III is much thinner, the Xperia T is more comfortable to hold than the Xperia S and as great as the S III - but this is as much down to personal preference as anything. I don't much mind for soft buttons or real buttons, both work just fine (and I adapt between them).
It feels like a moot point, but I don't like Samsung's default keyboard one bit. I use SwiftKey 3 and I use it on both devices, so nae bother the big yin as you can change it. Likewise with ICS you can disable junk you don't need, but the Xperia T comes with more stuff on there that I don't need.
For me, it comes down to speed. The Xperia T is a fast and fluid handset, but the S III feels that little bit quicker and more fluid. If you've used neither then you probably won't feel that big of a difference.
Hopefully that helps. The Xperia T plays the value card and it's a decent handset, but the key strength of the camera feels just a little bit hamstrung by the device being slower than the Samsung flagship.
Hi guys
Loved my Xperia S but returned it due to problems(screen) within 30 days from amazon. I have the galaxy s3 (New upgrade) but its going back for the Xperia T, the hardware on the s3 is great, still not sold on Amoled screen though, love the software on the Sony, Xperia T arrives on Monday hope I've made the right decision glad Sony now allow micro sd or wouldn't of bothered.
The Xperia T feels really solid compared to the S3 which feels cheap.
It's having an very unique and great look.
Sony's software is so much better than overbloated Touchwiz.
It's not having 1000 features added like Touchwiz, but i'm not using that stuff anyway.
I prefer clean software. Everything is where you would expect it.
Sony's software is mature and not childish like Touchwiz.
No annoying sounds and colors.
I'm really impressed.

But anyway, it has to go away for CyanogenMod.

Grats on your new toy codeworkx
Would love to hear you opinion regarding the phone snapyness and response plus battery consumption compared to the s3.
The shipped ROM looks decent and people can live with it tbh not like ****wiz.

Bought Xperia T
I bought today Xperia T. I've tried S3 for a week. It is really difficult to say wich one is better. My choice was Sony because... I like Sony.
Size, Apps - personal preferences
Speed - very close
Quality - both very good
Buttons - I like S3 main button, but I've missed camera button even more
Battery - Hard to say. I was using both phones a lot, and i don't say any bad words about any of them. But You can't use a spare battery with Sony. But I never used any spare one with any other phones.
Only one big thing for Samsung. DEVELOPERS.

Okay, I am completely sold. Getting the T. Next week. CAN'T WAIT !
Just swapped Galaxy s 3 for Xperia T a few days ago.
Pros:
1. The Software is way better on the Xperia T. Love the task manager with small apps. Xperia link with my Xperia tablet s is a god send.
2. Dedicated Camera button is a must for decent photos.
3. I prefer the colours of the Xperia Ts Screen.
4. The speaker quality is brilliant in calls and movies.
5. Headphone sound quality is richer.
6. Phone is sturdier and feels like a premium product.
7. Keyboard has better sensitivity.
8. PlayStation gaming coming soon, rumoured full wireless dual shock 3 support
9. GPS lock on is fantastic. Really quick and gets it even inside my house.
10. The Xperia T gui is just as smooth as the galaxy s3 and the speed is just as fast in loading and running apps bar some intensive games.
Cons:
1: Games run better, more smoother on the s3 (on really demanding games)
2. Development/community is better on s3
3. Looks like the s3 has jellybean first
4. No burst mode on the Xperia T camera?
5. So far battery life seems better on the s3 but that may be as im hammering the Xperia T as its new.
6. More official accessories available on the S3, where are the Xperia T official cases?!

For the cons I've highlighted above I'd say that they are obvious due to the fact the S3 has had a good few months to build this developer base and also for retailers to release accessories. Only way to do a like for like is give the phone x more months and then compare how the S3 is now to how that is in the allotted time. If you look at the S3 after a week from release date all the available ROM's/mods/accessories weren't there straight away it took time to build up. For these reasons none of these are cons for me
Oh and I'm also looking at the Xperia T as my next phone in November unless Google makes an exciting announcement on the next Nexus phone/series by then.

Unless AT&T locks the bootloader, I'm likely to get a TL - which is almost exactly identical to the T.
Only thing is I kind of want to wait for the next Nexuses... But I'm kind of thinking of using my XDA ERD perk to get the TL and then personal cash for a Nex.

I appreciate this unbiased comparison.
I want to upgrade from my Galaxy S2 soon and i am tempted by the Xperia T,
I played with an instore demo and it felt slightly slower then the S3 in store demo. It could of been because of every single timescape widget running lol.
i wanted to remove the widgets and reset the phone but i think the store would frown on that.
So it's only a little slower and may lag/stutter slightly more?
The screen - the timescape interface is so dull it doesn't do it justice. I watched a demo video showing sea life etc and it was incredible. Yet Gsmarena tested the phone and it's viewing angles and contrast ratio is below that of the iphone 4 (a 2 year old screen). that was disappointing. Now i don't know what to think
But it's so much more comfortable in the hand...i know i will drop the S3!
I personally find it quicker than my S3 in day to day use, chrome also runs a lot better.
Hi there! just a quick question but need a really detail and good answer here. I'm currently using a Xperia X8 which i bought a year ago. getting cranky now so I decided to buy a new SONY phone. I don't see any goodness in Samsung neither in Nokia due to the Windows OS so don't bother suggesting that. Just wanna know which phone should I get, Xperia SL or Xperia T? i love photography and both seem to provide almost what I need. Mind informing the pros and cons of getting both? and also I've used my friend's Xperia S for an hour and i used the XLOUD app, maxed the volume and played a song. It seems like my X8 have a better quality of sound compared to the S. fyi, its upgraded to ICS, he bought it recently, on 16th of October... the sound seems..pitchy and not really up to the "standard" i was looking forward to. So please help people cause in my hometown, SONY seems like an alien brand...
quick answer. get the T. its the more actual and more powerful device

+1 For Xperia T
Dual Core Snapdragon S4 Krait, extremely fast,
Sometimes faster than SGS3 or One X
13MP Sony Exmor Camera
iam about 2 buy a smart phone and cant choose between s4 and xperia z so i wanna ask few questions here
1-Octa core and quad core.....Much difference?
2-the camera compression which makes pics worse than s4....can it be solved by update?
3-what about sound quality is it that bad as they say in reviews?
thanks in advance
1) no
2) not sure
3) it's alright. Compared to my previous phones like tx, t, zl it's a bit off.
Ill be honest with you, z may not have the best specs Or screen Or whatever. But once you hold it in your hands you don't want to let it go.
S4 has features, but it's a phone that I cant bring out to show off.
The z, it's a beauty with water proof, a phone that I'm proud of to bring out with confidence. I don't even know how to explain the beauty and sexiness of the phone. It's like better than looking at girls ( okay I'm going to far) but you understand what I mean lol.

It's actually just 2x quad so in terms of speed, there's no difference
2. Sony is working on an update for the camera and power management, can't say results yet but it will improve.
3 I have no problem with the speaker, compared to s2 I find the quality better here.
But the speaker will get low for about 30 minutes if you drop the phone in water.
The S4 will melt if you drop it in water.
If you're really unsure just test both devices. I went with the Z for waterproof, I myself was faced with this decision. (but with HTC1)

Those guys over on the Sony forum aren't all that reliable though to be fair

I am about to buy a smartphone like you do.
1- for the hardware there is really not much of a difference between the two in raw power..
2- camera is not so bad, i think it's on par with the S4 without the iAuto mod.. but software will be improved, and you always can use mods..
3- sound quality, have no idea, i still need to buy the phone.. but i guess it will be ok.. but i don't use speaker to listen to song.. so i don't care even if it was low..
I will go with the xperia z, its just beautiful, hardware? almost the same.
i was considering the nexus 4, because of the fast updates ecc ecc..
but the Z is just amazing... so i will buy it next week.

If I may believe the technical people the 8 core processor should be able to extend your battery life which sounds logical to me. Speed wise though it shouldn't make too much of a difference since only max 4 cores are being used at the time in the S4 and not 8. Despite that I bet the S4 will have a better benchmark score than the Z, the real question though is if it would be a noticeable difference in real time daily use.
If the camera issue can be fixed? I don't see a reason why not since it isn't a hardware issue. Yet again, the question will be if Sony will fix it.
Sound quality from the speakers definitely isn't gonna wow you, I can guarantee. However it's not really that bad.. I agree that it has horrible placement and isn't really loud but I personally never use the speakers. I have my headphones and will soon purchase the NFC speakers so to me it isn't a big issue.

And the first batches with galaxy s4 will come with snapdragon and not exynos. New octa exynos chips arent even being massproduced just yet and might take awhile. (P.S. This info might being outdated, this is what I last heard.)

Hi there,
I was excited when I bought my XZ yesterday. Everything's awesome about this device..except for one thing. The camera quality is a joke. I've had an Xperia Ion prior to the Z and that device's camera was way superior. I expected the quality to be better than the Ion's or at least the same. But this is not the case.
I'm feeling like using CameraZOOM fx improves the image quality a bit, but yet not well enough.
Does anyone know whether I can do something about this issue or not?
Thank you very much in advance.
There is a definite problem with the camera on this phone which so far Sony have both failed to acknowledge or fix.
The lense is the same as the S4 and the image quality on that is a million times better...

Hello,
Does anybody here know or at least suggest me, what should I keep (I already own the iPhone 5 but I can't use it when my parents are not at home) or should I go and buy XSP (there's a discount for this device otherwise I would need to consider about S3 Mini or Xperia M) which I could use at anytime I want? Thanks to everyone who answers!
XSP is heads and shoulders better than XM or S3. And since S3 Mini is a cut-down version of S3, both in size *and* specs, IMHO there is no reason to prefer the alternatives.
You do have to remember that moving to Android means leaving the Apple ecosystem behind. You'll have to repurchase apps, and there might be some games that are not available on Android.

I know but I mean the key features like multitasking, camera, headphone that comes with the phone and so on. I know that some games on iOS aren't on Android (like Infinity Blade 2) but that doesn't matter me much, the only game I play on the phone is Clash of Clans and sometime (rlly rarely) I play Asphalt 8 (which I have purchsed for both Android and iOS, no worry for piracy) so.. I just care for the key features like the rear and the front camera. Both of the phones have 8MP camera rear camera but the exposure is different, is that a big difference between the quality? And like the screen, as I know the iPhone 5 comes with an Retina HD display and XSP with TFT HD display but with BE2/X-Reality so I don't which is better
Pretty much everything is better on the iPhone 5. It has better multitask, camera, comes with better headphones, has better hardware performances. As an XSP user, I can't think of a feature were the XSP is better than the iPhone 5, there might be some, but the iPhone is mostly better.

But as I know, Android was made for multitaking and for hardware, the XSP haves better processor and the camera is same or am I wrong?
If you want something that just works then the iPhone 5 is better.
If you want something you can play around with ROMs and have more control over the phone then the Xperia SP is better.
My preference is Xperia SP, I dont mind the iPhone as a device but its restrictions annoy me.

Android is made for multitasking, however, due to how newer apps are build, devices require more than 1GB to run smoothly. Sadly, the SP just has 1GB of RAM, which makes it slow at times. The processor is good, but the one on the iPhone 5 is the same, if not better. And no, the camera, while 8mpx, works better on the iPhone.

Ok but the iPhone still have only 1Gig RAM... Even some newer devices, even iPhone 5s didn't came with 2Gig RAM and for the headphones, both phone and headphone are using 3,5mm jack so... I can only think of the S5 and Z2(...?) to have 2Gig RAM so...

Can You post me some comparison pictures taken w/ the iPhone and the XSP? It would be really helpful.
Ok guys, looks like I'm more undecided now, can some1 do a +/- features for both phones (like comparing them). It would be great! Thanks! :highfive:
Edit1 : It would be even better, if any1 could suggest me a phone which I can play with the /system and do a normal work/sometime playing Clash Of Clans and Asphalt 8 and for music listening at the same time. I thought that the XSP can do it but it looks like it can't
Xperia SP:
+Design
+Loud speaker
+Bigger Screen
+Unique ilumination bar
+Runs a more "open" OS, Android (and outdated one)
-Camera
-Low RAM
-Materials used feels cheap at times
-Bad screen quality
Iphone 5:
+Design
+More apps
+More updates in the future (it will at least get two more mayor iOS updates)
+Premium build quality
+Better cameraS with slow-mo video (I'm not sure if it's the 5 and 5s or just the 5s)
+Better screen quality
+Better multitasking (iOS is more optimized for multitasking nowadays in my opinion, as iPhone 5 almost never lags).
-No unique feautres
-Speaker quality is okay.
+/- iOS is not as open as Android, but it's a beatiful design nevertheless.
This is what I can think of.

I can't post comparison pictures right now but there have been a lot of complaints about the XSP camera.
Some users are also experiencing some issues like blurring and extremely poor low light pictures.
If you need a good camera,dont get the XSP.
I don't think these issues are only with my device.
The phone is amazing in other aspects like hardware but if the camera is important,take a comparison from someone else has both the phones!
I'm sorry I can't put up pictures because I'm waiting at the airport
Good luck!
The camera on the SP is REALLY bad, the lenses even get scratched super easily, that's why people get blurry/overexposed pictures. If it's your priority, the more reasons to go for iPhone.

Ok guys, looks like I'm more undecided now, can some1 do a +/- features for both phones (like comparing them). It would be great! Thanks! :highfive:
Edit1 : It would be even better, if any1 could suggest me a phone which I can play with the /system and do a normal work/sometime playing Clash Of Clans and Asphalt 8 and for music listening at the same time. I thought that the XSP can do it but it looks like it can't

This phone can perfectly do that! Asphalt 8 runs fine with 0 lag on ultra settings and you should be able to play music when playing either of these games

And I know one thing about the i5: the WiFi sucks! My dad is always complaining about how he doesn't find any networks while I can find like 10 with my sp or that he can't connect to certain wireless network while I can

The SP had some WiFi reception problems (range) but the latest update has fixed it.
WiFi reception is perfect now!
