Thanks for the answer, but I was talking about the Xperia P ;) . If the P has a similar battery life I would be quite pleased tough.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Felimenta97:
I said my Xperia S because it's the phone I have. And you can compare, more or less, P and S. P has a smaller battery, but thev specs difference is the same. So it's easily comparable. Even thought, my main idea is the same: Only RAZR MAXX you give you this battery time

Here it's a review of the phone, please use the translation.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kdahri:
As per Clove website the phone comes already with a screen protector applied to it.

There is another screen protector in the package and I tried to pull out what it seems like a protector in my device with no luck.

Do you have a screen protector applied to your device already?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] o>c:
Yeah, I noticed a screen protector thing is applied out of the box.

Some people says its main function is to prevent the glass from breaking if cracked, it is not so scratch or dirt resistant.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SEFanX10i:
How do you find the camera of the XP ? Especially compared to the S ? :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xperiax10.awesome:
Seriously speaking Xperia P is very cool n good looking phone, it looks like a premium device !!!

I donno y Sony has not released Xperia S with same build quality..it would have blown other devices !!!

from xperia PLAY
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
I hope amazon us gets this baby soon, because I am sending my second Xperia S back because of Yellow Tint. I want to buy this phone next but maybe I will just get another S if it gonna be a while on the P. I love the dock for the P and the aluminum casing.

I just flashed the generic World ICS I found here on this great forum using flashtool. I was tired of waiting for Sony to push the update to my device. Could take months. Everything works great but I have only 2 issues: pinch to zoom lag in photo album application (as already reported by everybody) and I also have lag when scrolling through the conversations list in the messages app. Anybody else have this? Haven't seen it reported anywhere.

Other than that this appears to be a great update so far, but I'll wait a few days for my final verdict. Might install Apex launcher soon, I'll see how this new Sony ICS launcher is treating me :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] colonel:
I also tried the central Europe Rom. The main difference with world general 1 is the smaller size due to less languages.

Works great

A slight bit of scrolling lag compared to Galaxy Siii but otherwise great

I would prefer a.generic western Europe if anyone finds one

Hi guys I am going to get my Xperia P with in few days...this thread helped a lot to know abt P ...

But now I am confused abt colour ...

Which one should I go for ? Silver ,black or red ? Which colour looks classy , sexy & premium ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tbschommer:
You're gonna get positive and negative answers for all 3 colors, so I think it would be best to go to a store and take a look for yourself, if possible. I personally wish I had all three, depending on my mood :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
Which colour is your personal favourite ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tbschommer:

Red is more of a feminine color to me. I have the silver and it looks great. Black colour is not that attractive. It's matter of taste at the end.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hulkhaugen:
Is it just me or does this handset has a poor scatchresistant screen? Gorilla glass? Got a lot of them already, but i don't have a plastic film cover, and i keep it in my pocket with my keys etc. Still, worse than my HTC Desire and LG Optimus Black... :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MajestyZ:
Not sure if you know, but it has a screenprotector on it out of the box. I found some scratches on my screen even after a few weeks of usage. That's why I removed that screen protector, the scratches were gone. Haven't got any scratches so far, after 3 months of usage.

Yeah!!!! Got my Xperia P today!!!! And I am loving it!!!

But before updating to ICS my display consumption was only 50% in GB .....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mas143forever:
That is not something constant. It keeps varying, depending upon the usage pattern during that charge cycle. With me, it is almost always screen = 55-65% !
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shivindera:
Go to settings and then display.... Disable mobile BRAVIA Engine as you don't explicitly need that for normal usage... Only for watching movies and looking at pictures.

Also... You can keep the brightness to power saver mode... It still gives you a clear view even under sunlight :)

Hope I could help
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Lvw2000:
This might also be a good sign. ICS could be much more power efficient, and thus using less CPU and GPU. The only thing left that can eat battery then is your screen, so it's normal to see a higher percentage of battery for your screen, but general battery life improves :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Vipitus:
It's normal. When you have long screen on time comparing to overall battery time it's high percentage ;)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hulkhaugen:
Hmm, looks like there actually is a plastic film on there, The big scratches looks like plastic, the surface feels like plastic, and some areas of the phone is even insensitive, like the lower left corner. Sometimes have big problems getting the phone icon pressed recognized. When looking at the edges, it seems like there is a plastic film on it too, but no matter how hard i try, i can't get it loose. And i'm pretty sure i removed the big plastic film when i got the phone. hmm, i wish. Just annoys me that this phone gets far more scratches in one month than my desire got in one year. Not talking small differences either, there are a lot of scratches, and it gets the same treatment...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
The screen protector which comes pre installed and is very hard to peel off .it is the crack & scratch protection of the screen....if you want to keep it you can use a screen protectors over it...if you keep it it will help the screen...

Now I'm using LG optimus one and i care more about custome Roms than stock Roms :D (thanks to LG)

And one more thing

You guys have to flash kernels each time after flashing Rom separately and that even with flash tool ? Or can be flash via CWM recovery ?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
There is an fcc teardown. Not as easy to get to as the s but it's possible. The issue is its connected by a cord embedded in the battery
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
Well at the moment the Xperia P does not have so many Roms, but it will in due time....the battery is good for day to day activity... Continuously browsing will give you 5-6 hrs.3d games will last 3-4 hrs. And in stand by it will last 4 days even more...

Yes you have to flash the kernel separately via pc. Kernel cannot be flashed via CWM..

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Booyahh:
Hi there,

Sorry for the long post.

I am planning to buy the Xperia P smartphone (first smartphone in my life :)). I am actually a noob here, so don't be rude if I missed the right topic to post my question in. I have read almost all of the discussion in this topic, but I still have some questions to ask. Hope you don' mind.

I would like to get the black version since it looks good combined with the black parts of the screen.

Question to owners of black LT22i, does it get damaged easily? I don't mean by dropping it on the floor, rather by normal daily use? Scratches on the back of the phone?

I have seen some battery usage statistics on your forum, but I must ask again. My use would be very "normal", I assume. Since I am not a Facebook user, but I do use email, and like doing light surfing (probably 30min daily max), listening to music some 60min, and with no active Bluetooth and WiFi, but I would be using that "whatsapp" application (so active 3G internet?). Talking maybe 30mins. So I am not a heavy user (jet), and don't play a lot of games. Probably gonna have fun with angry birds or something simple.

Would it last a full day and not just form breakfast to supper?

I can have the black LT22i for 300 euro in my country and the MT27i Sola for 230 euro. Is it it worth the extra money?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dohanotoha:
I have silver one. It's been almost 3 months and no scratches on front or back. According to your usage routine, you are more likely a medium user. It will barely lasts a day.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
I have a Red one myself. It's feels very stunning and attractive... The metallic feature of this phone feels very premium and it has 1 GB of ram.so its definitely worth the extra bugs.if u r cautious about scratching then u can use a back bumper to protect it.. The build quality is good so it does not get damaged in normal conditional usage...

The battery will last you through the day in wifi but I cannot comment on 3G since I did not use it in 3G...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] neol:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] founderyue:
maybe the performance of Xperia P is weaker than Xperia S, but the industrial art of Xperia P is better, that's why I chose it.

want to buy..please advice

hello everyone,i am new here and this is my first post..that aside,coming to point..i want to buy an xperia p so went to a store to check it out..i used the camera (demo piece) and noticed that yellow looks green(literally) taken from an angle but looks yellow when taken from front..i got freaked and came back,are any of the owners facing this problem??i dont see it mentioned on the net anywhere..there is also this green tint on full brightness problem,does an ICS update help solve these probs?please help and sorry for the long post.thanks in advance.

My Xperia P

It's beautiful - no need to debate..!

I like Sony Xperia - Of course..! :D

BUT.. Sony not good at making software... It's look so NICE except size HUGE and LAG.. sometime fell like a little confuse about Dual Cotex- A9 cores...I like the stock laucher but I can't suffer the LAGGY for that long... so come out for the others one..

BATTERY.. BIG problems too... I charge my P TWICE a day AT LEAST.! 4 times may be.. (coz' I alway let the data ON..?)

and I pull off the shatter-proof cos' it cratch a little bit.. so the glass become a fingerprint magnet..

I also put a piece of paper to make the plastic cover (which below the stranparent bar) more table.. :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mas143forever:
Well, I am also a fan of black phones, but I mistakenly got the Silver Xperia P. But I must tell u, it was a good mistake. The metallic aluminum feel is there most prominently in the Silver one out of the 3 colors available. And the Red one is tge trendiest among the three. So its ur choice at the end of the day.

I own the silver one. Very scratch and finger-print free body. Should b same for all three. Rest assured of this aspect of the phone.

Well... Battery duration is very individual use specific. Basically you will be getting around 4-5 hours of screen-on time with the uses you have mentioned, quite similar to mine. The stand by backup is pretty great in ICS. So, if u space your screen on time over the entire day, u might just be able to stretch it that far. 15-20 hours u should easily get. The main battery guzzler is usually the Screen On time on my side, with uses similar to what you would be doing.

I think you should go for Xperia P. Worth the money.

---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------

I havent faced this camera issue of yellow appearing green when taken at an angle.

I dont exactly understand the much talked about green tint on full brightness. Frankly because, that is far too bright for all practical purposes. And it becomes quite difficult to tolerate such brightness. One wouldnt probably be using at that brightness level in any case. But again, all depends if thats an issue for u personally, then u might not want to go for, otherwise, such a good piece of handset.

Imo, 1305 mAh battery should b more of a put off than this tint issue, if any.

---------- Post added at 05:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:54 PM ----------

I dont think Xperia P has a laggy performance? :o

Yeah, lower capacity battery is an issue. But definitely not 4 times a day. 2 times should be enough for even hardcore users? No, I dont think simply "Data On" alone would hog so much battery. :o

You should have never peeled off the shatter proof sheet. It was quite finger print resistant, and also its good to have protective covers for the screen, no?

Yeah, the bottom plastic case does feel a bit brittle and loose. :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] topazonic:
Transparent strip problem!!

Is it normal for this to happen? Will it be gone or will increase with more usage? Will it affect the phone's performance? Should I ask for replacement? I would prefer it to be repaired as I think it is the glue that is spreading. Until now it has had no effect on phones performance.

It is very minor and barely visible with naked eye. The image I have taken is with a 12 Megapixel Digital Camera[Flash Off]. That too it is not visible in plain sight. It has to been seen from a certain viewing angle or in low light condition for it to be seen. Will the service center guy recognize this as a fault?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
What's the problem cant seem to find it from the picture??

Are you talking about the white part in the transparent strip?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] topazonic:
Yep. Precisely.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mas143forever:
White parts/linings spreading in the transparent bar? If thats the case, you should probably go for a replacement.

I think someone else also had this problem earlier in this thread or some other.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AwesomeTurtle:
I'm freakin' torn. I'm getting an Xperia for sure next week, but: Do I get the P (WhiteMagic, NovaThor/Mali400, unibody design, and I don't really mind qHD at all) or the S (720p display, ~32gb)?

Help me out here.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
My brother has a S and I bought the P...

Personally I like the P More than the S. Because of the sexy design and more slimmer than S and the aluminium unibody is so stunning to hold.feels premium.i don't likr the S touch buttons it is very unresponsive.i have to touch it twice or thrice for it to work.which is very annoying. But on the P the touch buttons r on the transparent bar and it is more responsive even to slight touch.

I can only see the benefit of 32gb and 720p display of the S then To the P.the 12 mp camera of S is not that good either.

The P is very fast and have more free ram than the S. And the P have white magic and wifi direct function which the S does not have..

The only downside of P is the battery life.on average usage it will last u through the day.but if u use heavily then 6-7 hrs max..

Well the decision is yours to make.. I just put forward some facts which I have faced... Best of luck..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AwesomeTurtle:
In all perfect honesty, I'd been leaning toward the S mostly because of the internal storage, but, thinking back, most/all of my past 16gb smartphones never ran into storage space problems (I typically only keep music that I actually listen to). I've also read maybe 12 reviews on the Xperia S, a good amount of which point out that the camera is not as great as it could have been, so I've left that out of the consideration pool.

P it is. Thanks for the recommendation.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] noim:
Well if you listen and store songs then storage wont b a big issue.. Plus the P has 80hrs of audio playback in a single charge...and the P was released 3 months later then the S.

And one other difference which I forgot to mention is the 1.5 Ghz dual core processor on S and P has 1Ghz dual core.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AwesomeTurtle:
I took the CPU differences into consideration as well. I think I'll manage, as most of what I do on smartphones doesn't require much horsepower (listen to music, read manga, play a game or three).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperiaU:
But Xperia P's processor is weaker than the one of Xperia S even if it is clocked at 1ghz.

I'll say go for S because it's just 50-60$ expensive but its worth it imo.

Plus I heard somewhere Xperia S will be soon a google device or something like it
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] AwesomeTurtle:
I also read a good amount of articles about AOSP support for the Xperia S. Once the goods for camera operation are provided I'll consider selling the P and getting the S.

The CPU is fine, since it'll still run everything I need it to at full speed.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] darth5zaft:
Can anyone post the apk for battery saver. U know the one that shut down mobile internet when the screen is off.

I had just 'install xperia T WiFi location on my S. So maybe I can install battery saver as well
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mas143forever:
Use the "Extended Standby Mode" under the Power Management of the phone itself, which does the exactly same thing of switching internet iff when screen off (if its there in the XS).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] darth5zaft:
Nope. It's not available in the S.

Thats why I am wondering whether I can install the "extended standby mode" apps on my S.

I'm guessing there must be an apk that install the said features.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mas143forever:
If thats the only feature you want, ie, switching off data when screen is off or other specified times, you may try 'Idle Time Connection Manager' from the playstore.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Gambler_3:
Xperia P has a better screen. I'll take viewing angles over PPI anyday especially given the fact that 275 PPI is still very sharp but xperia S viewing angles are poor.
