New Android Girl nexus s and arc

Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to android and would love if someone could help me. Coming from iPhone 4 I wana get android phone cause Rogers is releasing nexus s and xperia arc on 28th I wana get one but not sure which is better. Please help me everyone as I have only week to decide.
Thanks
Buy Arc Or w8 For Samsung Galaxy S2 ( similar to iphone 4 in looks )
might be forever for sgs2
just looking at the specs the Xperia Arc has the advantage in many areas:
8.1MP vs 5MP camera
microSD slot that can accept a 32GB card vs 16GB fixed internal in Nexus
4.2" vs 4.0" screen
FM radio
micro hdmi
MobileSyrup is reporting the Samsung Galaxy S II to be released late Q2/Early Q3. With a dual core 1.2 GHz processor, 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display and 1GB of RAM, I think it'll be worth the wait.
If not, I think the Samsung Nexus S would be a better choice than the Arc.
Sgs2 released in india. Getting in day or two
In Uk 1st May Onwards.
its not Forever
So not arc? I need one rightaway or nexus s.

If you want something right away, then take the Arc. It's a better phone than the Nexus S.

Agreed.
I used a Nexus S for a couple of weeks prior to getting my Arc and there's simply no contest IMO.
Of course there's the obvious points like the superior camera, the flexibility of having a memory card as opposed to only in-built memory, extra features like HDMI-out and the significantly better looks
But there's also things like the fact that the Arc is smoother, so much more polished and the screen is actually really good - for day-to-day usage, I'd go so far as to say that it's a match for the sAMOLED panel the Nexus S uses.
Hi i would recommend you to go for sony ericsson xperia arc because i have research lot for this phone and i got awesome reviews so go for arc. Thanks.

Except, you know, for the screen you're looking at all day (SAMOLED >>> any LCD), and the constant Google software updates. And the faster Hummingbird in the Nexus.

Xperia J

Okay guys! I have a feeling to change from My Galsxy Ace to new Sony Xperia J... very stylished & slim,sharp phone...so can u people tell me is it a good move?? & how is your xperiance about xperia J?? Battery life good??

Nice choice... Sony Xperia J is a nice mobile phone because it comes with 4.0.4 android operating system, 4 inch screen display, 5 mega pixel camera, 1 GHz processor, 512GB RAM, 3G and 1750 mAh battery capacity which is superb so you dont think about battery of this mobile. You can read all details here:
themobileindian.com/handset-guide/details/Sony-Xperia-J
J's stylish design caught my eyes. But yikes.... it only comes with 512MB RAM which is the same as Xperia Ray I'm having now.
In fact, its specs are all the same with Ray (aside from the fact that it's newer CPU) except bigger screen and battery.
So, my guess is that you'll experience slight lag on normal use and heavy lag if you're running a lot of widgets and apps simultaneously. (after all, what can you get with that budget?)
Just my two cents, but it's definitely the best phone available out there for that price tag.

Yeah....hope so....the most interesting thing about J is it is stylish & slim & the touch controls....i am fed up with Galaxy Ace now...it become very slow & battery drains fast......previously i had a normal crush on xperia neo v & a very big crush on Xperia ray....but sadly it changed because sony erricsson isnt there anymore...actually ilove the J with its all features....but no idea about how will be its batterylife.... & i have idea on galaxy s2 or apple 4 or 4s :thumbup:

My friend have it.
IMO xperia J has teh good battery life, but main disadvantage is sometimes its so lag.
I dont know why, but its should be Ok.
xperia j have good specification enough to beat galaxy ace... i thng u dont need to compare it
The Xperia J's design is indeed really attractive and though it isn't as fast as newer phones, it's pretty snappy to me. One big downside to it is its internal memory though! If you're a shutter bug like me, you'll find yourself filling that internal memory really quickly.

Display size

Hi, I have a Sony Xperia Neo since 2011 and I'm thinking about getting a new phone. I was searchin about Sony Xperia Z and Samsung Galaxy Note II.
Besides the obviously better hardware, I am looking for a bigger screen to read books. So, my question is, there is a lot of difference to read in a 3.7" screen (NEO) to a 5"-5.5" (Z,Note II)? Does reading on a phone impair sight, and does a bigger screen reduces this damage?
Also, about the phones, Z and Note II, they are worth?
EDIT: Can someone confirm that the Sony smartphones still can't flash kernel from CWM like the Samsung do?
Thanks

[Q] Somethings about Xperia L before buy it

Hi buddies, I´m still searching a good Android smartphone to replace my old Live Walkman. I´m looking for a mid range phone to use everyday, I´m taking so seriously the Xperia L, but I have some questions before buy it:
Can you tell me your Xperiance (jajaja) with the L? Tell me about bugs, sound, camera, screen, battery and performance. I´m coming to Xperia L family from the Live Walkman.
What´s the difference between C2104 and C2105 models ? Who´s the best one, or the universal one? Take the example between WT19a and WT19i models (Live Walkman). In my country only the Chilean models are aviable.
Some things I may consider to use this smartphone?
The Xperia L supports a San Disk 16 GB class 4 microSD :fingers-crossed:? Have you used it? I know it supports ´til 32 GB, but I heard about problems with 16 GB cards (like songs bug)
The Xperia L supports 64 GB cards?
How will I know if my bootloader is unlockable?
Thanks in advance, I´m totally a noob
Sorry for my poor English if you find any mistake
Fairly speaking, the newer Moto G looked like a better deal to me, but I'm really happy with XL
Bugs : The newest update (.14) removed most of them, I can't seem the notice the reported ones too.
Experience : From the first day onwards, the phone felt amazing, coming from a mtk chipset. Sound is loud, earphones are amazing (but some like nokia are incompatible due to different standards), the camera I was happy with from day one, no idea why everybody was complaining, but the night shots were terrible, which eventually got fixed. The screen is sometimes too bright, when reading at night, and is ample during the day. The battery, on normal usage (1hr dead trigger 2, an hour or so of calls, constant 3G, messaging) lasts around 18-20 hours easily from 100%. Performance? COME ON! It can take any damn game, dead trigger 2, asphalt 8, without any noticeable lags.
There's no real difference except the baseband I think. I have the c2104 model and it gave the same benchmarks as the c2105 so not much of a difference i'd say.
I have a 16GB microsd class 4 and it works beautifully. No bugs whatsoever.
No, XL does not support 64 gb sd but considering that even 16gb is sometimes too much for me, I'd say im okay with it
To know if the bootloader is unlockable, enter *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialer, it takes you to the service details (if i recall correctly)
Please do not forget to thank! I'm a newbie too, its okay

I can give you good, useful advice. I also used the Live with Walkman before the Xperia L and my brother has the Moto G which I have tested. Below I have given a comparison...
Xperia L vs Live with Walkman
- Live with Walkman: better screen sensitivity.
- Live with Walkman: better front facing camera.
- Live with Walkman: louder (stereo speakers).
- Xperia L is better in every other way, better specs, newer android version, better design (imo) etc...
Xperia L vs Moto G
- Moto G: faster/better processing power.
- Moto G: nearly AOSP experience, very fast/fluid.
- Moto G: android 4.4/Kit-Kat.
- Moto G: cheaper!
- Xperia L: better design.
- Xperia L: better rear camera (not front, front camera on Xperia L is awful).
- Xperia L: sony features (media apps, launcher, themes etc...)
Verdict
Go for the Moto G, unless your getting the Xperia L cheap (like I did ), the Moto G will do you better in the long run.

Xperia Z5 Dual in Aug. 2017 - would you buy it still?

My crazy wife just totally destroyed her Z3 Dual (+ busted LCD twice before). I also have a Z3 Dual and I am super happy with it still. It lasts 2 days on a charge and speed is more than sufficient. I'm considering giving it to her and getting something else, little newer. It has to be dual SIM with dedicated SD slot. Xperia XZ versions nowadays use hybrid SD/SIM2 slot and that's totally useless to me.
I can see Z5 Dual (6683) for about $400+ on eBay. Compared to Z3 it has uncovered USB port and slightly faster CPU. Premium (6883) with 4k screen is $500+, not worth expense, I think.
Reading comments here, it's seems like Z5 has quality and overheating issues. Would you buy Z5 again if you had a choice?
I would like to have the same question answered.
Buy Xperia X Performance instead

Xperia X Performance has a hybrid SIM 2 slot. To my knowledge, Z5 is last dual SIM Sony Xperia phone that has dedicated SD slot.
I both have z5 single and dual. Z5 dual cant handle multitasking and overheats instantly while using bluetooth and browsing the net at the same time. Z5 dual would freeze and restart by itself. I didnt experience it on z5 single sim though. Im planning to reflash the firmware and see if it would still restart.

That must be unit specific, there is hardly any appreciable hardware difference between single and dual SIM models...
