Phone owned for more than a year

I can just say this phone is excellent in everything and especially in having good UI. I can't rate its build quality a good amount just because of it's so sensitive, many of this kind of phone just have Overheat problem that is solved now. Video recording is just excellent but Photo capturing is poor I think. User Interface is amazing, although all of sony and sony ericsson phones have amazing UI.
Lets talk about Display; I can say the best Display I've ever seen, the display is as excellent as phones like Xperia S!
One of other pros is its SD card location, you won't need to take the battery out to remove or mount SD card.
And.. Internet.. Internet is a very important thing for me even on the phone. Let me be honest, I can't enjoy internet and surf in it easily; the display size isn't big enough and I have trouble with surfing in net.
Let me give a summary about other things:
Battery is good, multimedia is good, call quality is very good, .. .
