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.

Wait for XZ or buy a Nexus4. I will choose between XZ or N4

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
Hi guys,
I would like to buy an Xperia V but I can't find it in any local store here (Italy) or over the major web-sellers sites.
Anyone knows where it could be bought phisically (except for Asia/Russia) or a website?
Or someone will be so kind to buy one for me and ship it there?
Best regards,
Thx
This online retailer ships to Italy.

Its strange that Xperia V is not yet readily available in many countries. So maybe the Xperia V was supposed to be only for some markets, almost like a test before the Xperia Z realease? Ha ha ha, so maybe Sweden don't get Xperia Z...
Ps. We don't have Xperia T/TL in Sweden.
R: Where to buy Xperia V? Any website?
I think it's a -weird- market strategy that Sony applied to prepare the launch of the upcoming Xperia Z... For sure this one will be available worldwide, it will be the new flagship phone... They have invested too many resources to exclude some region..
Do you have the Xperia v instead?!

I have the Xperia V and its the small sister of Z.
I have noticed all the news today about the alpha release of JB for the Xperia T.
Is the TL eventually going to get an official upgrade to JB from Sony as well, or just the T?
Thanks!
Of course, T, TX, TL, and V will all get an official JB.

Thanks for the reply. Glad to hear it. I just got the TL a few days ago.
Sorry for another noob question, but has Sony announced any ETA for those updates? I'm assuming it's just "when it's done," but I thought i'd ask.

Q1 2013 So sometime between now and the end of march. But that is if they keep to their deadline, and they dont have to do that.
*Here's hoping to a February release of JB for us TL owners!*
Thanks a lot for the info! This is the first Android phone I've had that I liked enough "stock" to not really feel the need, or even want, to root and play with. I think Sony did an excellent job. And typically I hate sony....go figure.

I rooted only because I wanted to remove all the AT&T apps that I neither want nor need. Other than that and the Xperia Z lock screen I loaded, I kept everything as-is. Well, no, actually I use Nova Launcher, but you know what I mean...no crazy ROMS...
Hi
just wondering, is the phone to new or why isnt there almost any custom rom for this phone?
regards.

It's shadowed by Z and ZL previously, and then Z Ultra and Z1 released not too long after ZR, plus ZR is released only in specific regions... so........ it's not standing out to the devs.

Weird. Its a better phone than the z/zl but the z/zl gets all the attention
Sent from my Xperia Acro S using xda app-developers app
it's only "better" because it uses the same hardware but a lower resolution so it doesn't have to power such a big screen and thus the overall speed is faster... it does not make it "better"...
the Z/ZL were released in April while ZR only started selling around mid-June.
also, they are available worldwide, and the Z is the first flagship of 2013 so naturally it will get the most attention, unlike the ZR which is only available in like... idk 15 countries? maybe less...
so unless there happens to be a dev who happens to have a ZR who happens to want to make custom roms for you and i to use for free, we won't be seeing much activity around here. just live with it... or get a Z/Z1/ZL... if you want custom roms i suggest u try CM... afterall most other custom roms are based on them anyway...

Or donate some money to a ROM developer. I donated some bitcoins to FreeXperia since us ZR owners couldn't use CM without them.
Finally Sony bothered to release the Lifelong app, about two weeks after the smartband was available to buy. To everybody's surprise, it's xperia exclusive...
Before I return it, can somebody with an z1 (KitKat) or z2 share the apks for testing? APK downloader fails (I have a nexus 5)

Thanks.
Apparently, they are for the Z2 only at the moment.
Perhaps ask in the Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.

To be precise they are available for any Sony xperia with 4.4. Although optimal usage is guaranteed only on the Z2. I figured I had better odds on this forum.
See full description in previous links.
All I need are the apks.
Thanks.
Yes you are correct on the compatibility. I read an article on Android Central that incorrectly stated they were for the Z2 only. I see now that they are for all Xperia devices officially on 4.4.
The Z hasn't officially got KitKat yet, therefore nobody that has a Z is able to download the apps for you.
Even though there may be people that own one of the compatible devices here, you would probably get a faster result asking on one of the forums for the devices that have KitKat. That's all I meant.
