The Official Xperia S thread

Im looking at retail non-contract price of 800 to 850 for xs & mid-Mar pre-orders. I hope the pre-order freebies will either be branded case, dock or usb adapter cable.

Those looking to upgrade to xs, which of these main features is the main reason for upgrade?

- 1.5ghz Dual-core processor
- 1gb ram / more internal storage memory
- HD screen
- Fast camera boot-up & Full HD recording
- Front-facing/secondary camera
- PS certified
- Clear bass/clear stereo
- Its damn sexy
- Maybe because... Its a sony

This is so cool...Sony always come out with very practical things. Good sound quality and good camera quality! which is why I always support sony. Unlike some "other fruit" brand full of game apps. I rather stick to my w995 phone than wasting my money on apps.

I dunno about the N8 size, but for tablets, it's more dangerous cos the glass is way bigger.

As the saying goes: The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Let's not forget that if the surface area becomes bigger, unless you have really solid reinforcements by the side, the center is bound to be more susceptible to pressure.

Get ready your sim card cutter guys!

This's the part i most sian about... =.= Make my sim not compatible with other phones... I know got normal sim adaptor but it can cause some problems for other phones like my N8. SIM will get stuck inside if using microSIM+adaptor =(

the box looks kinda cheap. like some kind of off the shelf toy, open and throw type. gone are the days where phones comes with big luxurious box with many accessories.

Too beautiful! The phone, not the box, which is surprisingly flat.

yes, sometimes got keys. Mostly scratches on the camera module and the bezzel. The body got some dented areas cuz dropped on tarmat road.... yet screen and camera glass perfectly new.

Really hope the scratch resistant glass of the xperiaS is just as strong~

Strange my arc s box still give 2 pin plug.

Anyway, I guess they still have leftover plugs with SE name so they reuse it, green-friendly reasons.
