I'm moving from a Google Nexus S (bought one and an half year ago). I would like to buy a Sony from the Xperia series, but I have a limited budget: around 250 and 300 euros. Wich one do you think I should buy?
EDIT: Is the Gnex a good buy right now? What about Lumia 800?

What is it about the Sony phones that you like more than a Samsung?

First of all, the materials and their forms! And, if only I decide to buy a Samsung, I don't know wich one..
I'm just attracted by the Xperia series, but If I can find a Galaxy Nexus at around 200-220 euros I'll buy it! I saw the nice Xperia U that is a great phone compared to his price here in Italy..Or I could just wait some time and buy a Xperia S..
EDIT: wrong Xperia (changed from Z to S)

I do like the look of the newer Sony devices, I just worry that they won't get the developer following that Samsung phones have. Wait for MWC and see if Samsung announces the Galaxy S4, it's only a short time away and you see something other than either of those that you like.
Gnex for the win, nothing but butter !

Yeah I like the Gnex too, but I'm a bit afraid that it is already considered "old". Is it a good buy right now?
What about a Lumia800? at 200-230 euros?
Samsung galaxy s3 mini or nexus..Both are great :laugh:

Maybe Sony Xperia P? It has aluminium unibody case, bright display, dual-core processor and 1GB of RAM. It is also quite compact because of "only" 4'' display.
I think that they are all good devices (exept for the galaxy s3 mini..I can't stand it), I LOVE the design of the xperia P and I also really wish to get another Nexus device (in my country the Nexus 4 is not sold,, :S) so everything depends upon their cost..I'll wait a sale and I'll get the best offer!!
You might also want to consider Samsung Galaxy Ace 2. It's cheaper than Xperia P (but also made from worse materials) but it has similar specs and unlike Xperia it also has microSD slot and removable battery.
the 2011 xperias are cheap and has great dev support, i recommend the xperia ray with a 300 ppi screen and a 8 mp camera, best bang for your buck imo
Ok guys I'll just buy what fits best my personality (and my pocket ), buyt Gnex is #1 now.
Thanks All!
try chinese like meizu, very good phones and cheap

get the nexus 4
or save your money for the galaxy s 4
My friend's google nexus has not only been a great performer, it has proven to be extremely durable. As he drops it A LOT and it still works like the day he bought it.

EDIT: Just saw that you bought the Sony. I need some sleep. haha Glad you like it so far.
Dear Members,
I have been using Samsung Galaxy S I9000 for the past couple of years. Recently it fell down and the display was broken, Samsung Service centre told me it will cost me 6500 INR to get it replaced. So I decided to upgrade. After looking at options, I have zeroed in on 2 models.
Samsung Galaxy Nexus I9250
or
Sony Xperia SL
I am quite satisfied with both the android phones when it comes to specs. But I am just worried about the issues with them. One of my friend bought Nexus and he always complains that the volume is really low. I have also read in many places about the same issue which is holding me back from buying it.
When it comes to Xperia SL, there are a lot of complaints about the battery life and poor viewing angles in the absence of Amoled.
I am from India, but I am traveling to Duabi next month and will buy the phone there. There is not a big difference in the pricing between the two.
I just cannot come to a conclusion which one should i buy.
Any suggestions will be really appreciated.
Ive been debating for a couple of weeks now about getting a g pro 2. even though the phones been out for awhile the price is still up there. especially the Korean version. which is suppose to be the one to get to use in the US. Well, I couldn't hold off any longer. Ordered mines yesterday. The only thing im not happy with is the little or next none development support. I know this is a monster phone inside and out. I had the optimus g pro once. I loved the phone, but was disappointed with its support. I sold a note 3 to get this phone. everyone has a note. When you have a z ultra, and a one max the note 3 feels to small. I know the g pro 2 is going to be a nice replacement. I cant wait.
out of interest, why didn't you get the Nexus 6 instead? it's about as big, similar spec and probably will have a lot more development for it if you don't like pure google updates.

it's all about price...
You would be pretty pleased with the G Pro 2. Price is pretty affordable and knock knock code would be indispensable.
Enjoy it.
Price Factor
price is a factor. i did look at the nexus 6. i also looked at the price. i had sold a note 3 and the rest was out of pocket to get the g pro 2. if and when the price ever comes down to where the g pro 2 is now i would get one. ive never had a nexus phone because of there screen size. now put a nexus 6 at the same price that the nexus 5 came out with and im all over it. my current devices are a sony xperia z ultra, htc one max and lg g pro 2 which is being delivered as we speak.
I understand the excitement in getting a G Pro 2 but if you're one of those people that has to flash something every 20 minutes (like myself) you'll be extremely disappointed. I got so annoyed with LG putting a permanently locked bootloader on that I had to go out and buy an Xperia Z Ultra C6833 just so I could have a bit of device freedom. So if it were me, I would've kept the Note 3 or saved up for a while and buy a Nexus 6. But this is just my opinion, I know there are people that love this phone.
Is there anybody who knows where I can buy the Sony Xperia Z3 D6633 Silver Green?
I have looked virtually everywhere but the only website that seems to be selling them is Globstar (I cannot post the direct link since I don't have enough posts for that but it's about 500 USD for the phone)
Since they are selling them wholesale I would have to buy 4 of them and I am afraid that at the moment I cannot afford the risk of trying to sell three of them.
It looks like the phone really exists but no webshop is actually selling it.
Looks like nobody has been able to find it so far .
Anyway, in the end I bought a Nubia Z7 mini dual sim so I am glad I haven't found the one I was looking for. The Z3 is a beautiful device but well, let' s be honest, it's far from steal for its price.
Hi,
I wanna buy the Sony Z3 although it has been out the market for a while since September last year, i'm still impressed by its design however, i would like to ask you guys here about it, should I wait for the Z5 or buy the Sony Z3 which is a bit cheaper at the moment.
Personally, I prefer the Z3 (lower price, better design - my personal point of view, and still adapt almost everything one smartphone needs to have .. )
How about you guys and is there any owner of Z3 can give me some more suggestions ?
Thanks a lot
Go for Z3 it's cheaper and performance is not very different than Z5
