The editors didn't like
Ships with dated software
Color banding may spoil display for some
Still no good reason to care about PlayStation certification
No microSD card slot or user-accessible battery
The Xperia S has quirky capacitive buttons
Slow 3G data
An uninspiring screen
And a pokey processor. Its $559.99 price is also steep.
Lower screen resolution than some competitors
Poor camera quality
Annoying port cover
Keyboard case not worth extra money
Viewing angles distort blues
Capacitive buttons too close to screen
No removable battery
No expandable memory
Heat build up is noticable
More 'phablet' than phone
Heavy use will kill battery
Mediocre design. PlayStation bits disappoint. You have to update it to ICS
Back scuffs easily
Not yet Ice Cream Sandwich
Large form factor is awkward for typing
The capacitive button dots are hard to spot and not very responsive
Sealed battery compartment
No memory expansion slot
Chunky with weak build qualityCamera output is only superficially goodSony ecosystem needs to be more cohesive
Abstract: Two recently released high-end smartphones from Sony and HTC, namely the Xperia S and One X are both touted as top-class camera phones. Imaging specs are pretty impressive – the Sony Xperia S sports 12-megapixel “Exmor R” sensor, while the HTC One X ha...
The Sony Xperia S is a strange one to qualify. It is launched as Sony's flagship device, yet it doesn't have the hardware credentials inside to play with the giants such as HTC's One X or the Galaxy Nexus. However, the Xperia S shows very well that thr...
The Sony Xperia S sports a sharp, minimalistic design with angular corners and a curved back case. At 10.6mm thick, it’s slightly thicker than other ultra-slim smartphones. When turned off, the screen blends in with its black front. At the bottom, ther...
Abstract: We picked up our Sony Xperia S earlier this month in Spain and we've been busy testing out its 12MP camera. We took it on a little tour in Central London and following on from the first set of images we put up, we've got some more below for you! All photo...
Final thoughts on Xperia S? In layman's terms – it is a damn good handset, really! Having used it for couple of weeks I struggle to find any major flaws in it, maybe apart from those ergonomic issues I pointed out at the beginning, but to be fair I've got...
The Xperia S is a solid ‘first' Android smartphone from Sony, but there are a few too many foibles for us to recommend it — particularly at this price. Shipping with Android 4.0 ICS would certainly lift our opinion, but we doubt the imminent upgrade wi...
A great screen that’s ideal for the web and media viewing coupled with a fast, capable processor,
The absence of memory expansion is a letdown, and we don’t like the inaccessible battery either.
The Sony Xperia S isn't perfect, but it is a very capable and feature rich handset. Some may be annoyed by the lack of microSD card slot, but with 32GB of on-board storage, most users should be well catered for. If you wand a well designed, capable sma...
