[Q] Xperia T vs TX vs V

Hi ,
A few weeks back i had posted about choosing an Xperia S vs Xperia ION and thanks to the community i was able to choose the ION but now the xperia T and TX are available in the Indian ebay site. I was 100% sure of getting the xperia T but then i saw the issues of the paint peeling off which really made me unsure of what to do. I could just get the TX to avoid this and i'm not sure when the xperia V will be available. Upcoming xperia Z is beyond my budget ( I've got sour grapes syndrome for nexus 4 )
Like i mentioned because i will be getting the xperia T off ebay ( i do get the bill and 6 months warranty) i'm not sure Sony will respond to my qualms of the paint peeling. On the other hand the seller has mentioned for the TX that warranty will not cover any sony update issue. So should i go for the xperia TX instead or just get my hands on an xperia V?
The main things i'm looking for are :
- Better screen ( i'm guessing all the 3 have the same)
- Better Battery
- Better community / dev support for roms and issues.
Regards,
Rishi
Sv: [Q] Xperia T vs TX vs V
I use a Xperia V as work phone, and it is great...
No complaint at all until now...
It is used a lot every day, and is in my front pocket the rest of the time...

Can't say which one you should get but Tx is more beautiful than the T as for me. Here in Canada, the T is lte and Tx is hspa+. Don't know in your country.

Here both are HSPA+
I cannot vote as I have only seen the T.
If you have read any of my posts, you will know that I am not impressed by the compression applied to the photos. Worse than previous non Android SEs and worse than HTC, Samsung and Apple (probably worse than LG too!)
Xperia V
I use the V and it's the best Android phone I've ever tried. Slick, responsive, no crashes, can mulitask without crashes, and has the LTE (4G) speed as well. But then Sony released the Z with a better screen solution I guess.

agree what you said, just change the external SD card,
I want to buy this phone (T). I think of "ONLY" 1GB of ram.
There's already 3GB producing in factories. So...bit worried.
Can somebody (T,TX,V) tell me about ram usage. Do you really need more or you feel this is enough on your phone?

Yesterday i went electronic shop, and tried the xperia v, i was a bit shocked by the feeling. for me it feels unsexy, compared to my T. Dont get me wrong, its a good phone, but the Xperia T has an oustanding look and feel for me. I like my handy to be a bit more heavy and tough. also i like its some sort of "wide".i also prefer xperia T screensize/ relation screensize-smartphonesize
So for me its T, compared to V.
And by the way, the power is enough for todays technic. You dont need higher and higher and higher, more more more....for what?
I can get a T here in germany for 270euro, new, first hand. So i think its a really sexy price for such phone. Sure, many phones better in Benchmarks and Hardware. But lets be serious, who cares much Benchmarks, or who needs so much power?
Everybody who not like to spend 500euro for a phone, should look for it, or Nexus 4
by the way...Everybody who wants buy a new phone should go inside a shop and play with the handy in the hands, feel it. dont just look in forums or youtube hands-ons

Hello,
I am happy user of SGS2 and I now I'm deciding between S4 and Z1. I know that Galaxy family has tons of ROMs updated regulary and how rooting/flashing works and I am kinda afraid to leave that nice ecosystem and so I have few questions.
1.: Does xperia family share developers? E.g. one ROM gets compiled to few devices by same cook? Are there plenty of neat roms to choose?
2.: Is it possible to hardbrick xperia device (by flashing wrong boot)?
3.: Are there any recurring problems with xperia family that only long time user knows?
4.: Is there someone else who switched from Galaxy S2/3/4 to Z1 - if so, why?
5.: By any chance - does Z1 support headphone remote control for iphones?
Thanks!

First of all, welcome to the xperia family.
1. For now, there's not much in the development. Because the Z1 its just been released this september. We still need time, let the developers do their magic. Its just about time. If u want to see for example, go to xperia arc development. You will see many ROMs available.
2. Yup. Its possible. Every device has the possibility to be hardbricked. But dont worry, as long as u follow the instruction, u wont encounter any hard brick. Ive used xperia arc, xperia s, and xperia z1, and never encounter hardbrick.
3. The only problem that i know from the xperia family is that we are late on android updates.
4. I dont know
5. I think its gonna work, never tried it tho ..

I can answer your question about coming from an S3 to the Z1! I've found the Z1 much much better than the S3! No Touchwiz lag and bloat! Sure I miss some of the gesture stuff but I'll trade the lag free and minimalist changes to the android interface by Sony anytime. Also my battery lasts much longer than it ever did with the S3 and overall I'm quite happy! You might however find the display pannel to be inferior to Samsung's AMOLED screens. To be honest, viewing angles are not as good but still ok IMO... There are people complaining about yellow tint issue with Z1 and I became obssessed with that however after a few days of use, your eyes do get used to it and even in the tests, the whites look white... its a display calibration issue which Sony can easily fix in a firmware update..Also the Xperia Z had a tool to adjust white balance which is missing from the Z1 and should be brought in or will be ported.. Overall, I'll give a 8/10.. There are a few bugs but with the last update, quite a few were fixed.. Sony will keep this up so I expect it to be perfect in 1-3 months!

I had totally lite rom in my S2 since day 1 so I don't mind touchwiz, you can get rid of it pretty easily...
I still struggle with the idea of:
-having larger phone than S4, and yet
-having smaller screen than S4 (because of those stupid software buttons)
Also I'm kinda afraid of the glass... I've had some rough landings with my S2 - 1.5m landing on display on pavement, then scratching another meter on it and - one minor dent on the plastic bezel. No cracked front glass, no cracked back glass (plastic cover sometimes wins )
: confused :

If you are struggling with these issues, I think Z1 is not a good option for you... I suggest you try the LG G2... bigger screen (5.2") than S4 with roughly the same size, not glass (also plastic as S4). UI is very close to S4... G2 has software buttons but that's because the bezels are so small, it can not fit a physical button... it has the same chip (S800) as Z1 and note 3... and is 100 dollars cheaper...

I did switch. Z has more premium feel to it compared to the Z. It has everyone's attention when you take it out of your pocket!!
Functionality wise, its pretty similar. I think Z has a better camera, better call quality compared to my ZL..
Go for the Z or Z1..

[Q] Xperia TX or Xperia L???

Hi guys, I am sooo confused about decide between Xperia L and Xperia TX, both are the same, except for the screen, camera, internal storage, CPU clock and GPU.
My question is: Which one to buy? I´m worried about Sony will end support for TX, and the L will not upgrade to 4.3
Which one do you recommend? Considering that the L is a mid-range smartphone and the TX is old (Which one will get KitKat and 5.0? jajaja:cyclops Which one will get more support from Sony??
Excuse me for disturbing you again, I wrote another question before, help meee!!! :crying: I need to know your point of view, you´re awesome!!!! :highfive:
As always, thanks in advance, and sorry for my noob English I´m workin´ on it.
PD: Is Sony still making the Xperia TX, so I can find it new? :silly:
For using phone for 3 years, at least
You must buy a high end phone, not like Xperia TX or L
It's a simple solution for now
=)

[Q] Xperia SP problems and questions before buying

Hello everyone,I am ready to buy Xperia SP but I want to know some things first.
1.How good is the camera-screen??
2.Does OTG and MHL work like stock ROMS in CM11??
3.Are there any major bugs in CyanogenMod ROMs which will never be fixed??
4.Does the phone has problems with hardware??
Please answer as many questions as you can!
Why are buying xperia sp? I committed the biggest mistake of my life when I bought SP a few months ago. Sony has abandoned SP. I suggest you to buy Moto G 2014. I bought it for my sister and its amazing.

1. Auto focus is cr*p. But It can sometimes take very good photos. Right now I'm using cm 11s camera app and It's quite good.
3. No, everything works well.
4. No.

Since sony has abandoned SP. The unofficial support is rather limited as there are no sources. On the other hand, moto G will get better support as motorola is already officially releasing lollipop and would probably upgrade moto g to atleast one more android upgrade.
New official update => Official Kernel source and Binaries and libraries => Better custom rom support
also custom rom support is coming to the end too, KK roms are being finalized and cm12 for daily usage is vague.
anyway, with PAC 4.4.4 phone is good, no bugs. For cm11 I experience random reboots, nav bar lag tho.
