Trust me, go get the phone. Mine has worked flawlessly and I really couldn't be happier. .73 update took away battery problems and now the thing is inch perfect. And actually I like that Sony is taking their time to making sure ICS truly works when it's implemented. The display is amazing and the camera takes very nice photos. You will not be sorry.. (but still if you are unhappy I officially sign a disclaimer so I wont be liable )

It's a really great phone. Really most of the reviews complain about things that are really minor issues when really the phone is excellent all round. So what if it has last years specs, at least it is optimized and works fast out of the box. I'd rather it built of slightly older tech that is well understood and put together, than something put together from newer tech just because 'new' is better.

Sony Xperia S

The Sony Xperia S doesn’t differ too much from the Ion: it features a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, a 12MP Exmor R camera sensor, and a 720p display, only here it is 4.3-inches in size. If it looks familiar, it’s because we have seen this... Read More
