Good Device, Lil Quirky
Phone owned for less than a year

The Xperia is a pretty good device, upgraded from the Samsung Note 3, it runs decently and I've had little problems with it. Only issues I've had thus far is messaging problems and wanting Lollipop, but other than that it's great.

Don't Buy It
Phone owned for less than a month

I've bought this phone at Verizon Wireless and returned it the same day! The reason of return: Verizon Wireless Hotspot. The software won't let me use my data on other devises what is totally unacceptable!

Great and OK
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I love the phone for non phone things. Camera, battery life, and screen are superb. But Texting, and call quality are a little lacking in comparison to my previous HTC devices. Texting seems sluggish on any application using the stock keyboard, and call quality (sound and clarity) are a little muffled due to moisture resistance factor. Otherwise don't hate it and works well 9 times out of ten for whatever I need it to do.
