Means what I was xpecting was true, some **** from sony. Whats xtraodinary in new phones? No new technology. Only phones with different specs. :-/
Some will have good processr, some will have more memory or storage etc huh

+1 to that...
Sure, make a new flagship... Make EVERY NEXT phone your FLAGSHIP, Sony...
That's a smart way to sell phones...
But I just relocked my bootloader, running SUS to update Android to the latest update, and hoping I may get an update notification tomorrow (when I unlock my bootoader)
Its bound to be the new xperia Z & ZL.
although i really wish it was the jellybean update, sony do love taking their time.
It will be another fuc**ng phone.
Jeez, Sony just piss me off with things like that.
Any official pics or something like that?
Yup, there are;
But it's *tomorrow* today; any news on what it is?

I don't know why, but I somehow despise phones without hardware homa, back and menu buttons...
But Sony's starting to make only that kind of phones...
Specs of xzx and Xperia zx is pretty good when compared to s3.Hmm don't know what they have got in their mind.Hope they stand in their greatest position

good battery life,performance and experimental
Well, with custom kernel there's battery drain atm
Rest you mentioned is possible with it
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Yeah, well I think you can get an Arc S for the same price as the Arc atm, and i only got mine recently and am loving it! It's quick, reliable, thin and sexy etc ( Not future proof with no dual core processor which is going to be fully optimized by Icecream Sandwich-which SE said will be released to SE 2011 phones around start of 2012 if im correct. But apart from that it's amazing especially for the value. Worth every penny so far!
I'll post more info when I get it but so far the update is scheduled for October time frame.

Let's hope some devs can get ICS running way before that! What could possibly take so long!? The phone was announced almost 6 months ago! I thought this phone would launch with ICS for sure! They had plenty of time to get it done before launch! Almost makes me want to cancel my order!

Actually thats not true, I got the Lg Thrive (prepaid) and I hated the experience on it and ended up bricking it trying to update to gingerbread.
So far..I'm enjoying my new phone, aside from the crappy battery life this feels like a totally solid device!

If you haven't already let the phone completely run out of power them charge it full. Do that a few times and the battery life will improve.

I can wait, I don't mind the ion the way it is. I hope the Timescape widgets stick around in ICS.
I wonder why Sony neglected to include a timer app. Am I missing something? I need it for work twice a day to time my breaks. What does everybody else use? I'm currently using the alarm. That's not practical. What's the best lightweight stable alarm on the market? Um. I mean Play Store.
I'm giving Ovo a try.

Hey guys i need to choose between the xperia s, acro s and the ION. Which is the better phone to get? I am more leaning towards the acro s. I have seen the xperia s has focus issues with the camera.
My main use is for messaging and taking pics and surfing forums. Which will be better?
Acro S = S + micro SD slot ... that's all. Whatever issues do you see with harware/software on one, you will see exactly the same on the other also.
Both are newer than ION. It is just a matter of taste.
The S has better development support for non stock software, roms, kernels. If you can get one that has unlockable bootloader.
Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app
has anyone fixed the focus issue with the xperia s? I looked at vids and saw the acro s camera somehow performed way better. I want a micro sd slot so i guess the acro s might be the choice.
If I were you :
Xperia ion
Reason :
Sd card slot
Larger screen atm (4.6 ")

I would have said the ion but due to the lack of major development(kernels&bootloader unlock) I said the S.
I have never had any picture or video issues with the camera or auto focus.
My only complaint is battery life. But I think that's everyones issue with smart phones.

As lots of you have seen, the lt28at is really cheap on Amazon and eBay (around $250 unlocked) and I'm thinking about buying one as a replacement for my aging HTC Desire.
What do those of you with one think? Is there another phone in that price range that's better? Are you happy with it? It seems the best phone in that price range.
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app
Im happy with my ion(got it on ebay), good screen, good perfotmance, decent camera. Got a few issues with it though: my camera lens got scratched to the point i couldnt take pics, so i had to do a fix( I used my N95 lens as replacement, works great now), no unlockable bootloader means fewer custom roms. Other than that id say its a good bargain.

before buying the ion, i really expect this to do much more and much better compare to my previous x10. However, i was so disappointed..
if you want a phone that takes good pictures (good clarity and color), don't take ion;
if you want a phone with good wifi, don't take ion;
if you don't want a phone to randomly shut down the apps you are using without noticing, don't take ion
all of the above essential points to me are not presented in x10, so i am very not happy about the ion
i recommend you just wait for ion's jelly bean review. its ics build is definitely one of the worst if not the worst comparing to samsung/htc/LG's except for the look

choosing ion
I got my Ion on on ebay for $200.00 it's locked to AT&T so i can't use any custom roms, but i am waiting for the JB update hopefully by end of March and or April. What i did do to make my Ion more snappy is of course root it, install CWM, V6 supercharger to decrease lag, use a deodex L28H rom. I do use my S3 as my primary phone for work, but i just love Sony's look when it comes to the phone design. The Ion is a good not great phone but you just need to "tweak" it a little with mods for now to make run a little better, XDA is a great place to check to do just that!
PS. waiting for the ZL that will be my next Sony Xperia!:good:

I've been using an LT28at initially on AT&T then on T-Mobile for a total of 3 months. I previously used an X10 and a Nexus One.
In the U.S., the largest factor for me to have an SIM unlocked ION was its radio. AWS HSPA and LTE bands are covered. Granted LT28at's bootloader is locked and you can't try custom roms or custom kernels. But if you compare the ION with X10, Nexus One or HTC Desire, processing speed alone should feel a big improvement. Sure I love X10 (I still have one) and I personally think X10's push buttons are still better than ION's touch panel buttons. But ION is pretty good, and you won't be disappointed if you switch from HTC Desire.
It looks like I might get the lt28at. I know the bootloader is locked with little hope of that changing, but is it possible to load custom ROMs with the stock kernel?

Okay one last question. Is it possible to get into fastboot on the 28at version? I was reading the bootloader unlock thread and some people were saying that the 28at won't go to fast boot which keeps you from loading cwm. Is that true?

You can load cwm without any problems. I believe it is another mode( dont recall what its called right now) which the 28at cant go to which is necessary for bootloader unlocking( i tried). There is a guide o how to install cwm on the ion. You can also flash the generic 28h or i firmwares on the 28at without any issues.
