Going to, but I'm uploading a real life Xperia S Battery Test video, including some comments and opinions that might get me in trouble

Posting it here later, and then grabbing some shuteye before work later

On behalf of everybody here: Thanks for all your hard work~!!

What does Liveware do?

Actively monitors for any peripherals that maybe attached to the system at all times and launches an associated app or setting with it or otherwise

e.g Plug in USB, max screen brightness; Plug in headset, play music app of choice; Plug in HDMI, launch TV Launcher, etc etc

So it's a limited version of Tasker.

Depends on your usage really

I had my screen on for over 3 hours in a duration of 10.5 hours, and that's quite a lot

All-in-all, 7-9 hours should be a safe estimate, good for people who work in office environments, but maybe not for those without access to a charger whilst on the go

On a larger android phone, this is kind of expected however

I remembered my own LG Optimus 2X dying of a wakelock bug from full charge in 1h51min before, for example

Also, if you don't spend as much time on 1080p videos as mine did, your should go well over 12 hours

Now I remember needs to have Micro SIM ready...

Anyone has a SIM cut cutter?

How's the sound quality on this compare to the ArcS?

In term of loudness, which one is louder?

I know XS have xloud and virtual surround, how does this bring a diff feel as compare to the ArcS?

 

[Zeph_ng]

I'm a portable audiophile, never leaving home without my primary earphone (for the record, none of those Beats rubbish), kinda the wrong person to ask >_>

In terms of speaker loudness, both the arc S and XS are very similar to one another

If it means anything though, the XS does sound a little flatter VS the slightly more nasally sound coming out of the arc S

I oso whana know the sound quality of the headset. Itz important to me cuz i've had problems listening to the other party when in a crowded noisy environment with some phones. XperiaBlog's preview say the volume lower then compared to the Arc S. Didn't make any calls with the Arc S b4 so oso dunno how loud~

So i guess my question is, how would u compare the call volume of the XS against the iphone4/4s or the N8?
