Ur Experience and Suggestion plz!

Hello all I've been a hardcore Android user and Modder too!! Recently I got a Samsung Galaxy S2, but i'm not so delighted with its battery and the no led and few other things!!! So i thought of moving over to Xperia T, but many reviews say that the battery is too bad and also the display!!!
I wanted to know if there is any MOD that could make the Xperia T last longer ( for at least 13+ hours)
and also how is the loud speaker
so will it be good to buy Xperia T in exchange of S2!!! Need ur genuine Replies! :cyclops:

I'm finding my T very good.
The battery life is better than all of my friends. (Two of which have nexus 4s and one has One X)
The display is great. Significantly better than my dad's Lumia 920.
Sound is high quality, but not as loud as my arc S was.
The Xperia T is great. But I think you should just wait for the Xperia Z.

Thank u so much for the reply mate Xperia Z will be costly i heard, so i would rather prefer this Thank u

Then mybe you should wait little longer till you got the money to buy the Z
There somethings that make me or could buy me another phone, it's little bit too bulky I would love to have it as the Xperia arc as thin and light, the screen but that not really botter me too much and mybe the sound could always be better but not much phones got great quality speakers.
But I like the size I don't like phones get bigger except they make it light and easy to handle, don't know what the Z gonna feel like and it has good handeling I wish they did the arc desgin too with the curve I love that so much and it make it look so cool too !!!

The display in the T is one of the best I've seen, provided you're not a fan of those over-saturated AMOLEDs. Colors in the T are much more realistic.
As for the battery, I don't have a complain either. It lasts me for a full day with constant syncing, reading and writing emails, whatsapp, some fm radio, etc.
The loudspeaker is designed to work optimally when on a table or hard surface, there I find it sounds very crisp and clear.
All in all I'm very satisfied with it. The only thing that really deserves a slap on some engineer's face is the notification led, way too small and dull to be useful.

[Q] Xperia Z is it worth getting

Hi guys after reading about the problems associated with the xperia z is it worth getting still? I will be using it for games like GTA and similar so just worried about the heat and the back cover coming off. Also is the battery life decent compared to the S4. I like the xpeia z and the camera and the fact it is cheaper, I would get the xperia zl but it is not released in Australia.
Would I be best off just getting an S4?
Thanks for the input,

As Xperia Z gets warmer and warmer when you play games such as GTA Real Racing 3 NFS etc, you will feel it lag worse and worse.
Then you will be a bit disappointed.
It's the same with Galaxy S4, because, I think, 1080p resolution is quite a challenge for both APQ8064 and Exynos Octa.
Please don't think of me as a Samsung seller. To be frank, I think Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2(especially when equipped with custom kernel such as Perseus) are recommended for playing games.

got to agree with flytomars with this one, i have been using my sony xperia z for a whole month now. Proud owner btw:victory:, and i'm a power user of gaming and on9 almost daily.. if your a user who really want to play games 5hours a day or surfing by mobile data or wifi almost 5hours daily well you should get phones which have removable battery, ports which are not covered and smaller screen size. because as flytomars says, those resolution challenge the core much more.. i do recommended samsung galaxy s3 or nexus 4, because with extra battery and charging ports which are not close u can beast it out daily with your phone
BUT,
its up to you actually
personally for me, i happy with my xperia z. it stand out more than the owner:laugh: having that dust and water protection is important to me because im a clumsy guy:silly: plus my hands sweats alot

Yes!:fingers-crossed: What's more, Xperia Z's camera(with the latest firmware) can put other phones to shame.

another advice i would give to u is that u should try by hand the phone(if available) in the shop before u buy it. check out each phone and search for which one suits you better:highfive:
definitely u will know which phone is best
mine, Sony Xperia Z:angel:

I was thinking of doing that when I get time, in two weeks I have a week off so will probably go to the shops and have a look. Thanks for the help

Also has anyone experienced the heat problem I have been reading about?

Heating just happens..
Well first of all good luck.. May you get the best phone..:good::laugh:
Heating is something that is bound to happen with those 4 cores under the hood and non removable back cover. I have had XZ with me for the past 2 months now and quite frankly I haven't had too much trouble about heating as when it heats up I put it in a bowl of water
Honestly it(heating) bugs a bit, however, you cannot escape heating as you are pushing the cores to the limit hence, they are bound to be hot. Playing 3D and heavy games will make any phone hot so I would recommend to go and play with all the options you are contemplating and choose the one that suits you
I chose XZ.!

two things to be concerned about
- you cannot change batteries
- bootloader is unlockable on my new xperia Z and I am very pissed off, I cannot root my phone, Sony are NOT hacker friendly, I had no problems rooting my Samsungs, and HTCs in the past.

rooting and unlocking the bootloader are totally separate things

[Q] Xperia SP Users, please I need your suggestion on buying SP

Hello everybody,
Actually I was planning to purchase new xperia device... according to my budget, I thought of going for Xperia SP.
The reason for this thread is .. Can I go for SP as I am getting it in 19000 INR from ebay.in.. It is worth to buy or should i go for ZR which is 8000 INR more than SP price..
Will SP be future proof for atleast a year and will it Honami style 4.3 update. or just a common 4.3 update.
What do you think guys please.. suggest me!!!
and about considering the problems SP users are facing.

I don't Know how much is this in €. But SP is a really good choice! Buy the SP!
Sent from my C5303 using xda app-developers app

Test the Camera before by XSP. Picture size and quality is no more up to date. Not poor, but other devices (XS or HTC one) make better pictures. All other works great.

Value for money phone
Since I own a Xperia SP for more than 2 months now, following are my impressions. Since I am being critical I'll list negatives first.
Negatives:
Xperia SP's biggest weakness is its camera. Pictures in low light are very bad for its price... pictures in day light are ok, but nothing too good. Pictures taken by SP have more noise in them. So over all SP's camera is very much worse as compared to, say, Galaxy S3's.
The screen is not as good as Super Amoled screens of Samsung's Galaxy series or HTC's & LG's IPS LCD. However, while indoors you will not have any issue. While outdoors, the screen is a bit reflective but is still manageable. I haven't faced any other display issue till now.
Wi-fi reception is truly a bit weaker than other phones, but the internet speed is not affected. Only range is lesser.
Some people have encountered the touch issue when the phone is kept on a table & not in your palm. Some people have also faced a bit of trouble while the phone is plugged in for charging via AC adapter. However, I haven't faced any of these issues.
Positives:
The best part about SP is its performance. Snapdragon S4 Pro is simply a beast and Adreno 320 GPU blows the competition out of water. Current flagships of various brands like Xperia Z, ZL, ZR, HTC One and LG Optimus G Pro all have the same GPU.
SP has 1 GB RAM, which although is not equivalent to these flagships, is enough even for the heaviest of games/apps available in market. However, real racing 3 has some issues. Other games run very well.
Another plus point of SP is its build quality & design. It doesn't look cheap like Samsung GS3 or GS4. The illumination bar at the bottom is a very nice aspect of the design.
The battery performance of SP is one of the better ones.
When used with Bravia Engine 2, the display is awesome while indoors. It is sufficiently bright.
PRICE!!! A total value for money.
So, keeping all these in mind I would suggest:
If you are too much in cell phone photography, explore other mobiles. Galaxy S3 could be good choice in that case. Glaxy S4 mini and Nexus 4 are also there. However, all these cost slightly more than SP.
If 20K is your budget, then go for SP. You won't find a better phone at that price.
If you don't want even slightest of performance issue, surety of many more updates & have the extra budget then you can also give Xperia ZR a serious thought. It has a faster processor, more RAM & better camera in addition to being dust & waterproof. Battery life of ZR is even better than SP's.

Pretty much agree with the post from the_helix.
I think Sony have been clever with this device, they have taken away the things that average/practical users don't really care about.
Do you really need 400+ PPI, 1080p screen, a big internal memory if there's space for a memory card, more RAM etc? They have instead made sure that the processor is top notch, given it 4G and NFC - so you get almost flagship performance at half the price.
Yes some things could be better (there is always something to complain about - the S4 and HTC One are not immune from this either), but with a bigger screen and more robust build than the competition in this price range (the mini S4 and mini HTC One) I think this is the best mid-range phone on the market.
I think it's future proof - but within reason, some games developers always push the boundaries and make software that will only run really well on top devices. I think/hope it will see the next iteration of Android - is it really going to be called kit-kat?

hi,
purchased today my xperia sp in ebay.in. waiting for delivery. so now i being here for have a glance. iam biggest fan of sony till now i used four mobiles from sony, ( J230i, w810, x8, mini pro). and this is my fifth from sony. hope this mobile will meet my expectations. will join u later guys after getting my sp in hands. cheers!

How much do you want to spent? The XZ is a good phone, but if you're happy with your S3 there's no need to upgrade...
Also the XZ has become old.... if you're able to spend more, take the XZ2

The benchmarks say that Z is definetely faster and it is.

I had both
And personally i would say i like the XperiaZ a lot better than the SGS3.
The overall-look and feel is just amazing, the SGS3 in comparence felt cheap, and i really really hated the blue-ish screen of the SGS3,
although overall it had better viewing angles than the XperiaZ.
Camera: In dark conditions be it in video or picture-mode, the SGS3 surpasses the XperiaZ, in daylight the Camera of the Xperia-Z is better, except for Macro-Shots, those are better on the SGS3 too.
Sound: The sound that the microphone of the XperiaZ records (videos, telephone) is really crystal-clear compared to the SGS3 one.
The Headset/In-Ears are better on the Sony as usual, but even with other/better (Sennheiser/Audiotechnica/AKG)-Headphones the sound out of the Headphone-Jack of the XperiaZ is better than that of the SGS3
The Buildin-Speakers therefore are better/louder on the SGS3.
If you should purchase the XperiaZ is really up to you, in my location they are actually really cheap to get, so probably yea.
Although the Xperia Z1 Compact might be a better upgrade.
The Z1-Compact has a lot better Battery-Life a better processor and would be overall (in my opinion) the best upgrade, its not as expensive as the Z1/Z2 but on the other hand has superior hardware and battery-life compared to the XperiaZ.
But its really your decision, i can't make a decision for you
Hope it helped.

as a almost two month user of xperia z I can say one think: Buy it if you gonna use it as a nice looking phone(call, sms, social). For anything else forget about z, why? because of battery. so what if its fast? so what if it can run any game or app, battery on z is just most hilarious joke i've seen for past few years of my phones.
I love my xperia z, its look amazing, its durable, screen is very good and its fast but when you unplug it from charger at 7:00 you gonna need it after... 5h of typical use(LTE internet, NFC, camera). Better buy z1 compact or z2... sad but true, and looking at android 4.4 and how it thread batteries on others phones(not only sony) I think that 4.4 update for z gonna be major flop for battery...

Try Xperia z and other varians. Its best smartphone in the world (of course for me)
sorry for bad english. i hope you understand what i mean..

[Q] Z3 compact heating?

Hello fellow Xperia Lovers,
I am thinking of buying this fine technology and moving from xperia ZR (my first foray with Xperia is with xperia active) and aside from VGA front Facing and not so good battery life, my main gripe with the ZR is that when I use the phone long, the back portion heats up... very warmly...
So i read on another thread about issues encountered with the Z3 and I think, for my use, they are acceptable... however, I am happy to read that battery life is good with the Z3 even with heavy use... with this in mind, I would like to ask if, with heavy and long usage, does it heat up high? or is the heating acceptable? for ZR, continuous gaming for about 10 minutes would be heating up quite high.. which is not acceptable to me.. how is the Z3?
Thanks...
:highfive:

I came from the ZR and that phone was awesome then I moved to Z1c and now to Z3c. I have to say the Z3c would be perfect for you and the screen is much better quality while you will have the better storage option for Z3c. Moving from ZR to Z1c was not as good as moving to the Z3c as screen size and weight are much better, battery life is awesome and the camera is the biggest change from ZR. You won't regret it especially for gaming.

Thanks for your reply.. but what of the heating in the back? i presume you do not have a problem comparing the heating of ZR vs Z3c since you did not mention it?

It does get a little warm on the back when intensive gaming, but I would say its not greater than the ZR heat wise and its not noticeable to me. I normally play with emulators such as psp, gba, ps1 and the occasional RPG so I might not be the best person to advise you on this.

Heating of the backpanel is really acceptable. Already playing Colin McRae Rally (childhood's coming back, yay ^_^) and works like a charm while being just a bit warmer.

I had the ZR and it got quite hot with just browsing the internet, let alone gaming. The Z3C has no heat issue but I think you should wait a few more months as there'll be some better alternative you might consider.

I had a ZL (same family) and it heated up a lot (record 46 Cels.)
The z3c heats up but not even close to that level
