Hi Guys,
I'm planning to buy either the Xperia ION or the Xperia S. I was really looking forward to buy the S but now i'm getting the ION for a price very similar to the S so I'm able to afford it (I'm getting the ION by paying Rs1500 ~ 30$ more) . So these are the main aspects I'm considering between them:
- Better Screen
- Better Performance
- Less known Bugs/Issues
- Customization (flashing roms , hack support etc. )
and that's pretty much it. i like the fact that ION has a bigger screen and SD card support but i dunno why I'm not able to really say 'NO' to the xperia S. Please help me decide.
Thanks,
Rishi
What I learned between ion and S/SL,
Bigger screen = ion
Performance= same if with S, SL @1.7ghz
Customization= S/SL more development than ion on xda
Less bugs= I have an SL and I dont experience any bug like bravia engine, yellow tint ( already fixed on SL) , unable to unlock Bootloader
For ion, my friend has it, he is having problem with bravia engine not able to work after he unlocked bootloader, also very few custom roms, he said he should have chosen the xperia s/sl, and some ions were unable to unlock the BL.

If you unlock your bootloader, Bravia Engine might not work. Xperia ion will work with Bravia Engine unless you unlock the bootloader.
That's right, guess Im lucky on my SL, B.E. Is still working even my bootloader is unlocked.

The bootloader issue is there with the updated ICS rom ? I can somehow control myself to hold of unlocking the bootloader if the stock ICS is good enuf on the ION. I also forgot to ask which phone has the better Battery Life?
Its on your own whether you like it or not to unlock. Ion has a bigger batt capacity, 1900 against 1750mah, a few difference. It still depends on how you use the phone.

Yeah the Xperia ION screen is the only thing making me choose that over an S. So ION is the one to go for then ?

All depends. If you are big into using custom rooms and kernels the ion doesn't have the amount of dev support as the s. They both are great devices though.

I've been through the same thing a month ago, choosing between ion and s. I chose ion because of its gorgeous-ness and screen size and quality. Xperia ion has a unique screen. The contrast is so great.
About less devs available for ion,don't worry. You have got many mods for this device. The international version of ion is released at a later date than of S and so less people own an ion.
Go for Xperia Ion... You'll love it, like I do!

I'm using the Xperia SL and it really is a beauty esp in white. Its size is just perfect for my hands and is pocket-able and I think any bigger than this size would need both my hands to just use a phone and wouldn't fit my pocket anymore.
I use my SL to actually watch The Walking Dead when I'm on the road ^_^ Its screen is just amaziiing.
The ION which I do not own has an SD slot so if you're into saving a lot of media stuff then go for it. I usually delete episodes I've watched even though they're only like consuming 1 GB AHAHAHA *Panic Mode.
The ION has a bigger battery BUT also a bigger screen so its kind of isn't an advantage over the SL.
The SL has an eyelet :> I think bec. its also marketed for Japan as the NX while the ION does not have as it was for the US.
+1 for the walking dead on SL! I do watch on my SL too, and stored 3 seasons on my phone ,

Yeah your right , not gonna expect increased battery life just coz of the bigger bateery , however the phones are pretty similar in size with S at 128x64x10.6mm and ION at 133x68x10.8mm and both weigh in at 144g.
Compared to the galaxy S3 the S is just a slightly smaller and the ION is at par so i don't think fitting it on the pocket or using 1 hand should be an issue
Thanks for all the help , just a few days back Xperia T and TX were made available on the Indian ebay site. Will 99% go for one of these phones :highfive:

I currently own a samsung galaxy ace and I am looking forward to upgrade to a new phone.
Xperia arc and arc s both look the same and have same features.bt xperia arc s has a btr processor wich I think is ovrclocked to 1.4 ghz from the same xperia arc processor.
But the price diff btween them is around rupees 3k.
So is xperia arc s worth that price difference , or i can go with xperia arc?
Go with Arc S, but I would suggest you get a 2012 Xperia phones.
arc and arc s have different processors....its not the same processor overclocked...
and sony has stopped manufacturing these phone....it would hardly make any diffrence if you would buy a arc....because you can always overclock it up to 1.4 ghz..however, those roms/updates that are meant for arc s cannot be applied to arc but those for arc can be applied to arc s....it thoroughly depend on you....
hit thanks if i helped.....

Actually I m more interested in the slim design of xperia arc/ arc s. The NXT series is also nice Xperia P could be an option for me too. Still ARC looks really impressive to me.
Since I am not in touch with ARC's forum I dont have idea about the Custom ROMS being built for arc / arc s. And I have also heard people saying that ICS doesnt really work very well in arc or arc s. Thats why I am confused in between ARC n ARC S cause they are more or less the same. If there is major difference in performance or battery life then I can go for Xperia arc s by waiting a little bit more and collecting money for that

So , are more custom ROMS r built only for ARC s or they r treated equaly here ? because I m well aware of all the customizations in my galaxy ace so definitely i l b looking forward to the ROMs for my next phone too..
anyways thanks for your help... * I hit thanks too *
go for arc s dude..there wont be much price difference...i would suggest u to go for xperia P or S if u can handle a fat phone or else go for arc s
Roms here are built for arc s ..but can also be flashed on arc with lil change in build.prop
Arc has better 3G speed, but the processor is 1GHz and got problems with the casing.
Arc S has 1.4 GHz processor and most problems with the Arc has been solved with the Arc S.
So I suggest you go for Arc S.

the glory of single core mobile devices is fading so if you planning buying one might as weel invest for quadcore devices
quads perform better than singles I agree. but if your looking for something iconic yet still good, arc s is the bomb. understand the limits of the device though but for me, they still perform better than the new xperias. stability is the key.

The sale of the Xperia T in Europe in a few weeks left the Xperia ION in a very compromised situation in the market.
Yeah the ion is a waste of an upgrade, especially now. Had it been released back in January or even a few months after, then the ion would have been popular. Sony f'd up but that's in largely thanks to att. Then again, things like the wifi signal and the battery life, the ion feels like a step back even compared to my x10.

ION was the real flagship before arrival of Xperia T. It's a shame that Sony did not launch for months, along with xperia s. Now who will buy the Xperia ION, having better options in the market?
It was perfect if you ask me, killer phone with killer specs for free..... Thank you ATT, Sony and anyone else that was responsible.

Xperia v vs ion
The new Bond Phone in Singapore is Xperia V. I went to Singtel yesterday and tested the Xperia V with my ion, results were disappointing.
1. The screen on the ion beats the Xperia V so much. Contrast so much better and deeper blacks on the Ion.
2. I have installed the Cybershot V4 and i compared the camera on both phones. Superior Auto on V and HDR auto on Ion, the xperia v's 13mp camera gave me a pic of 2.2mb photo size and the Ion 12Mp camera gave me a 2.95mb photo size . (Same Photo)
3. Yea, the ions lags slightly on CPU speed, but its very Minor.
3a. Yea, the onscreen buttons may seem not so responsive on the ion, but after all the firmware updates, all the touch screen Mods, its almost Perfect.
4. After looking at the outlook of the Xperia V, i found out that i prefer my Ion looks(Aluminium back) , although its slightly thicker. In fact i feel that Xperia Arc looks better then the V.
5. The screen is larger then the V.
6. Internal Storage is more then the V.
XPERIA ION ROCKS!!!!!

haha. So coincidence. I posted something similar days ago. choosing between Ion and V. From Singapore too.
In Singapore, V is the bond phone as T is not launched there.
The lag on the Ion is hardly a dealbreaker imo. I am actually pleasantly surprised because the s2 skyrocket lags a lot more. Sony's UI is closer to stock android so that helps keep the lag down. It doesn't really lag that much in the first place for me though. It's honestly the best UI I have ever used on an android phone. The bottom line is that the snapdragon s3 processor is more than capable of running ics and jb. If you're someone that needs the absolute fastest then you wouldn't be looking at dual core phones anyways, haha.
where can i find these on screen mods to make the buttons more sensitive? thanks
^ try searching. Or looking in the theme and app section.

Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Reading about them, you wont see a lot of diferences between them... Only you can see that SL have 0.2MHz of proccesor.. (it could mean that SL drains battery quickly, obviusly a bit quickly). All other things are similar, and you could lose buying the SL beacuse, like you said, SL lack the same comunity development.
If you find out, that you could install Xperia S roms in an SL phone... Go to SL jajaja
Actually thats 400mhz Difference, 200mhz per core right, and XSL have Bluetooth 3.0, and XS have 2.1
And I read that newer XS which does not have any Yellow Tint, Quick Charge has been removed?(hardware related?), atleast on my XSL i can confirm that it is working if you have EP850/850
And according to reviews, like GSMArena, Photo's and Video is slightly better on XSL(software related?)
Now I'm just wondering if I could install all the wonderful ROM in Xperia S Development box for my SL ??

Well, I still say 'duck' those 200 MHz and bluetooth!
If you're asking for XDA purposes; get the S
If you're a douchebag that only gets a phone to brag in front of friends; get the SL (I'm not judging anyone, but the only people I know that have the SL are douchebags (no offence to the cool guys at XDA that have the SL)).
If I were you, I will go for S. I dont care about rom development but custom kernel are very important for me. If XS kernel can be use on XSL, then I will say XSL.
But I'm now stuck weather to pick between Xperia S and Xperia P.
Xperia S got HD screen, better battery capacity and processer. But the capacitive button really annoying me.
In other hand Xperia P surround by aluminium unibody, power by WhiteMagic and capacitive button are reside in transparent strip. But it have low battery capacity.
Guy please help me which one do you prefer.
Thanks.

You have to think also about applications and games you already have bought through playstore, i read that some who upgraded his 2011 xperia(qualcomm) to xperia p(st-ericsson) have a lot of incompatibilites, specially games. So for me i decided to buy XSL, hd screen, 12mp camera, bigger screen, bigger battery, and better cpu 1.7ghz, and of course most of my apps that i bought from google play are compatible.
About the capacitive buttons, they are not like XP, but i got used to it, maybe live with it.

Chill bro
The fact is that you are speaking about stuffs you dont own apparently, and yes, the first things you said seemed to be like: I affirm this. This is it.
No, xperia S has no screen problems since ages, and has no ICS problems..
the only argument will be: price, screen size, memory, and subjective aspect: design.

From what ive read, every XS users who use OTA to ICS will encounter soo much lagginess...Bcoz of the second core disabled...
If its not true then its good to go though...No hardfeelings bro....
So which should be the best ? Xs or what?
XS got great support from XDA. but if you like bigger screen then may go for iON. But for a phone anything bigger than 4 - 4.3 is too much for me.
XPERIA LT26i has a reasonable speed/size internal flash at 32GB, misses out on MicroSD card, but really not a problem to hang a 32GB USB flash off a MicroUSB cable for most people.
XPERIA S is mostly cheaper
XPERIA ion has, LTE or HSDPA giving higher mobile speeds, a bigger battery and microSD card, but lose ~16GB internal flash.
The screen on both are much the same with XPERIA S having ~342 ppi pixel density and XPERIA ion less as it's screen is stretched out.
XPERIA acro S has 16GB internal memory, MicroSD AND is able to go swimming.
Firmware wise plus or minus a MicroSD the devices are all much the same with same processing hardware.
For all these devices JB(yet to be released) is mooted to have a good raft of features coming such as wireless media broadcast to compatible devices and etc
So this gives many of the software features of the new phones if you're happy to live with a ~1.7GHz Dual Core processor and an Adreno 220.
As already stated their will probably be more development around the XPERIA LT26i as it was part of the ASOP before Sony took over this development.
Go for the Xperia SL, with the latest firmware update it's fixed most of the problems. Only thing I dislike is the overheating and stock ROM forcing you to under clock your CPU during heavy use. With general everyday usage you rarely see this happen though.

No, Xperia S isn't overheating. You can surf the Net and you won't burn your hands Only when you are playing good games(e.g. Real Racing 3) phone can be hot but it isn't 100 degrees and you would be able to play normally without problems. After a while you won't see that phone is hot.
