Words fall short on how to describe the AMAZING-NESS of this Wonderful Phone :)

I dont why this hoopla is being created around the 4GB of memory provided for user storage.
See as simple as that, its not for those high-ended people who like to keep tons of data on their fone for which they are crying foul over the less storage.
I personally find 4 gb more than enough for my file storage on top of it Sony provides additional 2Gb sorage for applictaions, which, in other fones is around 170-200MB approx.
So, guys other than that "alleged" flaw there's nothing bad in this fon...

Please Go through this review before writing a review.. :D

I will start with the main point everyone is mentioning.
NO EXPANDABLE STORAGE!
But before you deduct 1 or more stars for this, know about its OTG (On The Go) feature.
You can connect any pendrive of any size to it just via a small cable. This indirectly means you are adding external storage.
This also means due to less data actually stored on phone & all your heavy data outside on a pendrive, the phone will process even faster & smoother.
A pendrive weighs like what 20gms?

& 4GB is like a b...

This has a removable Battery!

@Yuvananda Praveen I must tell you, you are one of those people who are blinded by rumors and space issues. First thing, it doesnt have an embedded battery, it is user removable. Then the 4GB problem. No one, and I mean No one will store 10HD videos. And one more thing, 5-6mins of HD videos dont have 300mb. Movies, 3hr movies, that are HD, come upto a size of just over 890mb. Dont say things you dont know about. Also the 1300mAH battery is enough as, people who know the technical aspects of a...

Why bury in mere numbers?

numbers...numbers...numbers!

barring screen size and memory - everything else has to be 'experienced'!

its really pathetic to see people going ooh...aaah on mere numbers. to top it all, they conclude this price tag is too much for this specs...wow! I wonder where these people learned 'mobile pricing' without the knowledge of its components and quality that went into each mobile!

reality is...people cant even ...

Does it deliver?

For the end user a true smart phone can be ‘the’ _phone or it can be ‘the’ simple, down to earth, no guilt/no worry for its owner, a super budget Dual sim. As I said it depends how ones life revolves around the tech marvel.

I’m bit of a mix of old and new thoughts alike. I want the Iphone for its sheer Iphone-ness (well, who doesn’t) but am pressed to work overtime for that, which is definitely out of my league. So I chuck it for now. Then, of course I have my work ‘to-go-anywhere’ horse mo...

Just updated to Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich :-)

I'm using Xperia U for last three months. Yesterday I updated to Ice Cream Sandwich. Overall a very good experience. Nice User Interface. Running Smoothly.
