Xperia U hands down. Never really into plasticky phones.

Xperia U
Flawless victory

Xperia U

Samsung Ace 2 is better than Sony Xperia U
why are you telling him to buy Sony Xperia U when clearly Samsung Ace 2 is better?
Samsung Ace 2 has more ram and a microSD slot, Sony Xperia U doesn`t have a microSD and only 512 MB RAM
they both use the same NovaThor U8500 but Samsung underclocked it to 800MHz so it uses less battery

Yes, it does not have a SD Slot. But if gonna buy a smartphone like this, you won't use much more space (4 GB for user, not total.)
And Sony wins with the specs and features of U.

I consider this a taste thing: I always found the vivid colors of BRAVIA Engine better then anything else ( yea, even better than AMOLED yellowish ones).

I love the design of Xperia U.. it looks exactly like Xperia S.. I gotta pick it even though i'm a bit Sammy Boy! XD

Xperia U with live sound

The U is so amazing for a low end device, very good design and solid quality. The Ace 2 looks like an uninspiring piece of crap if you put it side by side with the Sony. It may have slightly better specs but man, at this price it's no night and day difference at all. I'd go for the U. The Lumia 610 will have a very hard time in this price range with that bad boy around.

It's Not Low End
The Galaxy Mini/Apollo/Gio Is Low End
And For Me... Specs Are King Of The Hill

It depends
Well, both devices have their pros and disadvantages, the xperia U has a faster processor and a really good screen due to the bravia engine. What it's bad about it is the 4gb memory without sd card slot, so you need to think about it if you listen to a lot of music and take a lot of pictures. I'm not a big fan of samsung because the materials feel really cheap.
In my opinion, the xperia U is waaay much better, you can consider the Xperia P too

Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 is much better. The Xperia U is 100% plastic too so don't listen to these trolls.
In terms of specs Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 wins no contest. The Xperia U has an extremely laggy UI and browser which is very disappointing

Are you serious? Timescape is way lighter than TouchWiz. It is plastic? And? I bet it feels better than Ace. Browser, wait a little until ICS. And the design? Sorry, the same design being used by over 2 years is better than something new every year? And I think you didn't see the awesomeness of the BRAVIA Engine and the colour changing Transparent Bar

Ace 2 is upgradable to Android ICS 4.0 and has a microSD slot

Which to buy? Xperia Mini Pro vs Galaxy S5830 vs Wildfire S

Which of these is the best to buy?
The Xperia Mini Pro:
- Dont like its design, fat...
- fast cpu 1ghz
- launcher not so nice
Galaxy S5830
- 800mhz cpu which is actually a overclocked 600mhz cpu, bad battery life
- nice design
- have bad experiences with samsung...
Wildfire S
- Sense? Is it worth? It looks nice...
- Slow CPU 600mhz holds me back...
Which is the best for me? I like modding and making ROMs. So far I have only experience with samsung. Is it also easy with Xperia Mini or Wildfire S to do it?
I hope one of these will suit my needs ... I don't play HD games... But I like having a good phone.
I use my phone for making roms and text messaging mostly. = which is probably stupid you may think. I also like using the GPS for navigation.

I also read that the Xperia has no illuminated keyboard :/ so I think I scrap the Xperia for sure.
So Wildfire S vs Ace?
Do HTC Devices get updates longer than Samsung devices? or is that just a illusion of me?
I was thinking of buying the wildfire but the ace is much more good lokking and the screen is bigger than the wildfires 3.2''
The stock ROM is nothing compared to the sense UI but I'm using cyanogen 7.1
which is great.
Though the wildfire has a higher RAM its processor is much slower and seriously the Ace isn't overcooked
GO for Ace

Samsung or Sony

hey people which phone would you prefer
sony xperia p
-1gb ram
-dual-core with mali 400 singlecore
-very good screen with qhd
Samsung galaxy s advance
-only 700-800mb
-dual-core with mali 400 singlecore (the same chipset)
-amoled screen with 800x480 pixel
for me is a good xda community very important so which would you prefer
Idk if everything is as easy for Samsung as Sony I say Samsung but never played with a Sony phone
Meh Fascinating Unicorn Devil
Don't buy any of them the flagship phone from last year ( sgs2 and xperia S) are far superior at the same price.

There are not many ROMs available for Xperia P.....you should also consider checking Arc S. It has not dual core proccessor, but its speed is decent. Xperia P's disadvantage is that there is no separate forum on XDA. If you dont mind it, then buy Sony Xperia P because it has better specs(higher resolution, more of RAM, better camera-Exmor R, better design)

I agree. Also, the previous year's models will have a lot more choices for ROMs and customizations.

sorry but im now in germany and here you cant get the s2 without the g and the xperia is over my budget (the s2 also)
BTW i have a budget of max 300 euro
both phones (s advance and xp) are pretty new so the community is surely not so big.
And i want to play games like mc3 with it:
both have the same chipset so both have almost the same performance. are they good enough to play those games??
If you are considering just SGA and Xperia P I would definitely go for Xperia.
better screen rseolution, a bit more RAM, probably officaial ICS (samsung sucks with upgrades), better camera, HDMI port.

Should I buy xperia j? With all those problems?

I'm planning to order an xperia j in a week or two,but i saw that many people have problems with it.Some say that sony just released some defective phones,and that's why.
I'm just scarred that I might end up with a defective one too,sure I can change the os,but if the problem is hardware,then what?!
Also,the big problem is that there isn't a big error,like the phone not starting up,so if I take it to be repaired with the warranty,what am I gonna say? Hey,the phone lags in games,that's the problem?!

then dont get a j. games like gta maxpayne and so on are not ment for a 1ghz processors. you can always get a 2011 flag ship for the same money but thats 2 year old hardware. its like the old saying goes you get what you pay for. the j's rival galaxy ace 2 even though its a duo core its only a 800mhz processor same as xperia miro. i my self love my j its a good little phone in my opinion.
No, go for Xperia Arc S, Xperia Neo, Xperia Pro. There is better out there for same price.
And these are not faulty models. Everything is working ok in every model. Only phones above cost the same and are better (processor, games, screen).
Don't worry about defective phones as they are not.
why is xperia j faulty?
if u got low money , J its suitable for u , since x acro s are expensive , and un-removable battery
J got long live battery .. and moveable
J maybe have singel core , but remember more core , more battery use ,
some xperia have dual core , but when i visit their forum , a lot of them want to "off" the other core , and they still on GB.
J got an offcial update to JB at the end of march 2013..
if u have more money , Sammy S3 mini , HTC sensation XE its not a bad choice imo.
My gf using xperia j.. XJ is a good phone, but not for gaming.. its suitable for you if you need a phone only for entertain media and messeging.

I've bought this telephone and i love it! It's very cool, but with stock ICS it sometimes lag... with cm10 i haven't more lags and i can overclock my CPU... it's a very good phone!

Go for Xperia go, u, sola or galaxy ace (though it had 800mhz processor it is twice fast than j)

Stop it!!
You're wrong and stop writing untruth!!!
Even the phones like SGS II, SGS 3 can be lag, both in daily work and games, so don't write with a weak GPU that is in the XJ because it is not normal adreno200 but it's significantly improved. Just go to my channel on YouTube and look at yourself as advanced 3D games work on SXJ

Help me to decide: Xperia J or U?

Based on your experience with xperia J which phone do you suggest, J or U?
Comparing them I've found:
J pro: bigger display. microsd slot, JB, battery life (?)
J cons: lower ppi, very old and slow cpu
U pro: higher ppi, very decent dual core v7 cpu, more compact
U cons: smaller screen, no microsd slot, stuck at ICS, battery life (?)
What would yu suggest?

battery life in the j is amazing ,the jb update has fixed any lag on the software,screen is a great size ,overclock the cpu to 1.3ghz and all perfomance problems are gone .GET THE J!
R: Help me to decide: Xperia J or U?
But J cannot play hd video, U instead does...
I have both phones I think j is better especialy with jb. The u lags even with a duo core thats heavy ics for u.

Thanks, but for about the same price I could also find a galaxy ace plus, do you have an idea whether is J faster or Aceplus can beat J due to lower resolution?

the ace 2 has more ram and a duo core. but samsungs build quality is not as good as sonys there more fragile. and the screen is better on the j. on jb i would recommend it to anyone. just make sure you buy a sim free one (not branded to a network) so you can unlock the bootloader

In fact, you cant possibly consider the ace plus. Samsung devices are poor, and this one is no exception. Avoid them at all costs.

But battery life of U is worse...
U has the worst, most low performing dualcore CPU + chipset on it.Wait till the end of march, when the Xperia P will get Jellybean, and because they share the same hardware with the U, the U might get the JB update ported.Wait it out.U is still most definitely better than J.
it must just be my U that lags like hell i have both hand sets it really is not much better than J and it will be close to the same as J still with jb may be worse without official jb no custom jb is as stable as stock thats my xperiance with 4 different devices any way.

The u even tho its a low grade duo core the device still has to power 2 cpu's so a single core has better battery life.

I can't really help you with your temperature "problem", you may check the gpu frequency?
Well, I just found 2 benchmarks and compares for the Xperia Z and Note II,
you may take a look at them;
http://geekaphone.com/compare/Sony-Xperia-Z-vs-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-II
http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z-review-887p5.php
If the only problem is the temperature, it won't worth to sell your Xperia Z.
As the benchmarks says the Z is better for gaming, but the NII is also really good.
I think it depends on your wishes to the phone

Note II is good for gaming as much as the other expensive phones of samsung brand. Many ppl have the same problem as you. You can check this topic "[Q] Galaxy Note 2 overheating ??" (Sorry but I can't give you a link becuase I dont have the requirements of posts)
In my opinion Note II is overheating because of the performance of the phone
The temperature was putting too much damage to xperia z? very hot in gaming & web browsing

I dont really understand what you mean, but here is what I think. If you have a problem with your xperia Z and if your guarantee still covers your phone then you could contact your seller and ask him what is happening to your phone. On the other hand if your guarantee is over, you could sell your phone and I suggest you buy the S4 instead of Note II, because S4 is more popular and has better ROM support and not only.

I am not sure. I have read something about overheating but not sure what exactly it was, so I dont want to confuse you. You can read some information for both devices and see which one is better for you, but as I said above I think S4 is the better choice.

The main purpose of the phone is to talk by them. If you want to play games I suggest you buy a tablet. Anyway..
I think S4 is a great phone, which is able to run every single game without any problem. However, in my opinion S4 is a great phone which you can use for everything and also I am thinking of buying it.
PS.
I am not professional. I am just giving you my opinion and I wanted to make sure you know that.
I recommend the QUAD core phones! They are awesome!
If you want GREAT gaming ONLY device , so get nVIDIA SHIELD!!! Or the new nVIDIA k1 tablet! (dont what what its name)
