Sony Xperia S User Reviews

Yes, its an very old phone, but it doesn't mean that it needs to lag on every possible move. Camera button option is very nice, but the battery life is so disappointing - it barely lasts for half day with average usage till i need to charge it and 12 hours if i dont use it

I am completely satisfied with this phone and i have decided to use it for few years,
because i am pretty used to it now. I love to use Wifi and Play games but battery
won't stand anymore.
Btw i bought it because i love Sony Products and i can compromise, no big deal :)

I am using it for almost two years now and will own it till it stops working but apart frombattery, the phone performs great. My main reason to buy this phone was to play powerful games but it can't play gta vice city but it plays gta san andreas perfectly. I hope it stays with me another year or two. Love walkman love simplicity and its beauty :-)

very good phone , i only hate his battery
and app management is difficult on android ( phone memory , intern memory ) notifications ... nice and clean camera ,

I loved this phone but now I think that I must switch to another one because its irritating me because of its lagging. The phone lag for no reason, more than 150MB RAM is free but it still lag. Whenever I connext WiFi the phone starts to lag and responds too late.

A really good smartphone with an amazing camera and screen. I do realize that it's plastic build quality is questionable but it does not bother me at all. The only problem is battery life, it's not the thinnest phone in the world that's for sure, so you'd expect that the battery takes a lot of space, but it doesn't! overall love it and proud of it :D I'm switching to a nexus 5 though :( I'm gonna miss the Exmor R camera and it's night shooting features.

Best Phone EVER !!! Hope only CON raised by phonearena doesn't valid after loaded with 32 GB :) of internal memory.On top of it we can use Cloud memory like BOX etc., Sony products are excellent.SONY Xperia S is AWESOME !!!

Very nice aluminium body . Its display is ingredible you cant see any pixel.Most strong dual core which never lags at any game .Also its camera is as good as you can imagine as you see 12 mp .All in all for 300 euro xperia s is the best choice

It's a really nice phone after the JB update the phone has no lagging at all. the display is realy cool bright even in outside, it dosent even lack a SD card because it has 32gb in it so no cons for me at all

realy smart phone and have stable work
The price is not high and the performance is great.
it is batter than galaxy S3

So Sony has paid Ericsson off with a nice little divorce settlement and is now single and ready to rock - and the result is the 12.1MP-camera, HD screen-toting Sony Xperia S.

Obviously, it's a line carried over from the Sony Ericsson era which saw the maker release an Xperia handset on what felt like a weekly basis. But we get the feeling that this is something a little more special.

Specs wise, it's pretty high end so should give us a great experience if we're judging it on paper. A fantastic 4.3" screen with Sony's Bravia HD technology, 12MP Exmor R camera, DLNA, Android Icecream Sandwich 4.0 and so forth.

first day got it, the screen spoilt.... after get it back from warranty claim, the antenna faulty.... enter sony service center twice within 1 month of getting it.... kinda expected sony quality is s**t but seriously never expected it to be this bad.... however the phone is certainly best bang for buck... 720p screen is crisp and video playback supports 1080p... the UI seems a bit laggy to my taste.. not that bad but just a little.... guess the ui a bit heavy... can get through a day without problem.... camera is ok...

I have this phone for over a year now. I never got bored of it and never even though about changing it. It still works perfect and its still fast unless you put a lot of apps on it that you dont need. I have droped this phone into a bath while i was in it took it out very quickly and dried it after a while it was perfect and i turend it back on the things at the back got red but the phone still works perfectly. I would highly recomend any Sony phone.

Sony Xperia S, a beautiful phone to have in your hand.. Its got all the good features and i faed ZERO lags in it using ICS, which actually is a buggy OS.. U can see a lot of lags in ICS, fortunately i faced none. Games work flawlessly, personally tested NFSMW, COD Zombies, Real Racing 3, DownHill Xtreme, Batman Dark Knight Rises and few more.. None of them lagged even once.. So the phone is extremely fast for a Dual Core.. QualComm and Adreno combination has provided the best performance.. It is no less than a SGS3 except for a Quad Core.. But the only con i can point out is Battery Life.. I was happy with SGS2's battery life which was 200% better, but Sony has to improve on that one aspect which will no doubt attract more users.. Since Jelly Bean brings better battery life to Sony, users can be relaxed on that issue.. Otherwise its performance is at its best.. Camera, no doubt is crystal clear with pictures and even 1080p videos also very good clarity.. Love my phone.. :D

When i first opened the box, i was created by a phone that looked not like a phone, but more like a Masterpiece. The screen was pitch black,blending into the thin bezel that surrounded it, creating an elegant statement when it was turned off. The transparent strip at the bottom screamed innovation, accomponied by a anti-dust back that felt sturdy and solid. Next was its UI, i was greeted by a Stock Vanilla like OS, customised and tinkered at some points which made it feel SONY, but still giving me a STOCK android experiance. Of course the screen helped alot, Its super natural colours blew my eyes, and i even traded watching shows on my Computer to watching it on my phone, the beautiful colours and high resolution screen made viewing movies spectacular. The camera was perfect, capturing detailed photos fast and smoothly, it was the perfect social companion. The battery however was dissapointing, I had to charge it twice daily, even with my screen set to the lowest. Possibly because i couldnt put it down, using it almost the entire day.

This is a really good phone but SONY has decided to go the way mass production of several models per year so that software upgrades are not a priority. There are slight software glitches that I've experienced since my first droid so this may be a problem with Android itself. The battery is a waste of time- not as horrible as the iPhones and OneX but its sad that I can't use the phone to it's full potential without walking around with my charger :(. The speaker is also unreasonably soft.

Fortunately this is a speed demon; the display is BEAUTIFUL; and browsing, playing games, using the incredible WALKMAN app, NFC (with SmartTags), 32Gb + 50 with free Box account, the cool Xperia native apps, a wicked awesome camera, a unique design, Timescape, and others make this phone one of the best phones around. It's sad that so many sites gave such poor reviews (CNET...cough) when the reality is that the phone is really really good.

Xperia S good but its not the best. I love my Xperia S.
Playing Games with S is Awesome and the Camera is really good and full HD recording too.
Although its Battery life is bellow average when Playing games or Browsing but in standby mode its perfect.

Primeramente su precio es increíble si vemos todas las funciones con las que cuenta este súper smartphone, me encanta la velocidad de su procesador, su pantalla tienen un tamaño perfecto, la memoria es perfecta, creo que en todo el tiempo que lo he tenido apenas conozco un 60% de todo lo que tiene y son funciones básicas, y vaya que lo uso mucho tiempo, simplemente este celular es hermoso, su cámara me encanta, los colores, lamentablemente lo tengo en color blanco y se notan mucho las manchas, pero creo que eso no le quita nada de genial.

SONY is from Japan so i like it so much., better thn Samsung,. because Samsung phones Sucks... Japan made are more Quality than others .. Japan is better than Korea. Japanese are Smart and Innovative. new Thinkings and Projects to be Done

i have no lag issues since day 1..sreen is large and resolution is great, more than the retine display..battery life is not bad..the walkman feature helps you to easily manage your songs, the phone gives you more storage with 32 gb

Very outstanding phone from Sony only battery life is not good as needed for this kind of phone. Video display is extra Amazing. Brightness is very good. Camera work fine with customization and good result for closeup.

good phone ,
i had a nokia and iphone but both of the are not capable of using easily for daily life because nokia doesn't prove good store to download apps and iphone required itune every task so
this is the perfect phone for me for gaming and watching hd videosssssssss

This phone is THE BEST PHONE. am in luv with every feature its got especially its HD display. Colors r really bright &its really gr8 while watching movies. When compared the display with S2 i really luv dis display. Battery in this phone is really gr8!! I dnt knw y people hv been saying battery isnt upto d mark. I updated it to ICS & with 3g connection on always i can use this phone on single charge for a solid full day, at times i can get more than a day. What more can you expect frm a smartphone. Only issue is at times when phone gets stuck, gotta wait til phone restarts by itself, if not dis the best phone.

Theeee best in its range, 1st i'm really impressed with its HD screen it is so awesome that u can feel every detail, nd the 12mp camera is also brilliant but its has problem with auto focus and the clicks @night is also not so nice.........but it has best video capture really its worth. The music player interface is very nice nd audio too but it can be better with a little loud. you can experience hd games with really fast response the phone doesn't slows nd the wifi connection is descent.......and at last about battery it drains very fast yes for hd screen it should be but when the phones brightness is reduced i can manage for more than a day.............waiting for android 4.1 hope they make it fast.......

Xperia S is a very beautiful phone! And the screen is amazing! But i kind of feels alone. No one has a Xperia S. It´s very strange because Xperia S is a very good phone.

The 1.5 MHz processor is very good and you can play most apps without lag. The camera is kind of good. It has problem with red light and the video recorder looks wierd. It´s 12.1 mpx. The battery is a big minus. Why Sony? Why?
