[Q] Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini PRO vs Samsung Galaxy Ace

Hey guys, even though this is a developer forum I can't find a place with more informed people to ask this question
Which one should I buy, given that they will both cost the same to me?
Thank you

I'm not trying to be rude but they're both some pretty lame ass phones afaik. How much do you wanna spend? Maybe you can find some better deals...

I don't want to spend much and there ain't better deals for the price range I am looking at.
Anyway those are the only choices I have, so please just compare them to each other.
Thank you

Galaxy Ace, compared to x10 its thinner and has bigger screen camera quality is same on both [video quality is better on Eric].
But overall I would recommend you to go for Ace as you can customize if according to your need.
x10 mini has problems rooting and flashing and all, whereas Ace doesn't, hence you can improvise on any aspect you wish with Ace when you get bored of stock Ui or firmware :]
And also you can completely change your Ace into Xperia if you want here is the link [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1324628 ]

Thanks for answering, but you left me even more confused than I was about the Xperia.
Were you talking about the Xperia X10 mini pro or the Xperia mini pro?
http://www.compare-cellphones.org/Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-mini-pro-vs-Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-X10-mini-pro
I was not talking about the X10 one, which is why I am asking.
Thank you

Ok nvm then
I'd say go for the Ace, it has a faster processor and some actual support here on xda: with a slight oc and a custom rom it should be quite smooth. It also has a newer version of Android out of the box and as Samsung tweeted a while ago it might even receive the ICS update at some point in the second half of 2012.

Again, the must be some confusion about the Xperia one. The Xperia I am talking about has faster processor,faster GPU and more RAM compared to the Ace. But less battery and smaller screen. Since this will be my first smartphone I though I would ask since I have no idea how important the screen size is (3.5 vs 3.0 in this case).
Also, support in this site is also important, since I would rather have a slightly worst phone if it had more developers working on it and more support for custom roms etc.

I think you are still thinking that he/she is talking about the x10 mini(pro).
because the SE Xperia mini (pro) has gingerbread and will get ics. It also has 1 ghz processor(oc-able), which is better than the ace's, i think.
Btw the x10 mini's do have great support at this forum.

Yes I am not talking about the X10, and it does have better specs than ace, (1GHz CPU vs 800MHz, 512MB RAM vs 278, 320MB Internal Mem vs 158MB, Adreno 205 GPU vs Adreno 200 GPU). But specs are not everything so please keep the comments coming, specially if you have one of them, or experience with both Sony Ericsson and Samsung.

I never really used the Galaxy Ace, but I used Xperia Mini Pro a little (at a store here in my city), everthing was stock, but that think is nice looking, keyboard is perfect, it's fast and things other guys said, better hardware, will receive ICS, etc.
I would go with Mini Pro, but I am a SE fanboy, so...

back on topic, I was going for the Xperia when I read there are troubles with noise or something. maybe the ace is safer?

Why Sony? Why?! Sony Xperia E and Nokia Lumia 520

First thing I want to say that I'm not a big fan of Sony and Sony Xperia E is my first and the last device from Sony.
My point is how can Sony make this much worst smartphone !
I mean the hardware... Just look at it damn! Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 series processor with 512 MB RAM that can't even handle the load of Android 4.1.1 .
I don't know what is the worst part a sluggish performance of hardware of Sony's not so much interesting skin of Android which is giving more load on the hardware.
Now, I will talk about Nokia Lumia 520 ! Just look at the phone man!
Sexy body!
Sexy hardware!
Sexy OS!
The massive power of Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro Krait 1 GHz dual core with 512 MB RAM. WOW!
And the best thing is even the Android is almost free and Windows 8 OS needs licence for the phone.. Both the phones costs almost at the same price.*
Is there any solution of this sluggish performance of Sony Xperia E ?! I have tried everything even CM 10 @ 1.3GHz overclocking but this disgusting phone remains the same and lags as heck.
Why Sony? Why?!
Learn from Nokia.

1. Why compare mate? Before buying a phone,you seriously should have checked up responses and reviews.
2. Have patience. There are many devices,who have sluggish performance. But there are also devs.We still have to wait for @joebonrichie to make 3.4 kernel for our device,which FXP did not.
3. Wait for devs to come up with 4.4,I'm sure that will not disappoint you.
4. You just have to agree that it is not a gaming phone,by using CM10,I sure have no lag at the ui.
Although game lag is present.
5. If you wanted a gaming phone,you should have had to pay higher.
6. Request a few developers to make blind builds of roms else. They might help.
7. Have you tried Pure performances+Greenify+Seeder?

EDIT: 8. Don't compare an Android to Windows.

I agree there is no comparison between Windows OS and Android but what I am trying to say is at the same price what Nokia gives is a lot more than Sony in hardware wise I mean just look at the processor and GPU ! Adreno 305 ! Sony looks so conservative people and of course my next device will never be Sony and not even an Android yes ! I would better use iOS devices or Windows because Android itself causes lags though there is ample amount of clockspeed and RAM. >.< LOL

And maybe request someone to make a blind build.

LOL dude ! I know that Android 4.4 KitKat is configured to work like butterly smooth even in the 512 MB RAM config. but the GPU of our device is Adreno 200 and I don't think so that this much old GPU can handle this much smoothness and the best part in this whole scene is the development of 4.4 ROMs for our devices which will probably be under action when our phones will be at the age of retirement !
Alright a bad-joke ! I mean so few developers are developing our ROMs and Kernels and last but not the least we should not beg for ROMs from the developers and stop abusing our phones by not giving overload which shortens the life of phones.
CyanogenMod is officially developing the one for Sony Xperia E let's see how it changes the game !

Mate,look at pico section,same configs as ours.
Look at the number of Cm10.x roms available for them.
Devs have to take it seriously.

Yeah, the 520's hardware's a lot better than ours, but I got the E because I wanted Android - it's much more open (by default) than Windows is.

Yes. Right.

Yes, You are right because I see LG Optimus L5 like low config. phone having variety of available ROMs higher than CM 10 i.e CM 10.2 and maybe CM 11 is under development. :3 and when I searched for XE I got Babaji Ka Thullu.

Haha.
Maybe request someone to provide a blind build?[Actually kernel is only thing which is stopping us from higher development, we do know joebonrichie is working on it,we can hope that he's successful]
Or maybe just ask some dev from other sections about the RIL issue fix.
Once that's fixed,I believe @NSDCars5 will be working on Paranoid Android and Miui as well.
All we can do is stay calm.

Yes dude. I did it for the same just because I wanted to taste some Android and I think it was my mistake to choose XE.
Hehe I am waiting for the future releases of Nokia and will get a Nokia and if Microsoft messes up Nokia the only option left for me is probably then Apple iPhones. or jolla phones with sailfish OS which is in the starting stage so not so mature but still I love it because it is funded by Nokia and run by ex-employees of Nokia who left the company after Windows came into Nokia.
My point of this post is Sony is such a conservative company which made phone in so low cost and selling with higher profit margin and Sony also doesn't provide any major software updates for such budget phones and as a result most of the people who suffers under major lags in System UI chooses to unlock bootloader and tries CyanogenMod ROMs at their own risks.

Possible? Certainly. They can get Jelly Bean on the HTC G1 (first Android phone, for those who don't know), MIUI on our phones would be relatively much easier.

Lumia 520 is nothing more than trash compared to Xperia SP or V so don't mock Sony, Are You Poor? Why did you get Xperia E and not those better Phones Sony has to offer. Xperia E is a budget phone don't expect a phone that cheap to be good for gaming and such
If you don't want it then don't buy it, sheesh there are many other android phones that are better and stronger for those with money

If you're still low on cash, I would indeed suggest him to not buy a Nexus 4.
Check: http://swappa.com.
You can find some really nice, already-used(mint condition most of the time!) devices, plus it's very save.
You pay, you get your phone. Done.
Just want to recommend this, because even the Nexus 4 is getting old. And the Nexus 5(although cheaper than other high-end phones), is still not cheap .
Swappa is also supported by XDA. Not trying to advertise, just giving a tip.

Yeah, I think I'm happy with this device, it has a great camera, sometimes it took great shots, but sometimes don't, but I pretty much took a great ones, and then, for perfomance it is decent to powerful, it sometimes a little lagged, but just sometimes, but that lag isn't disturbing anyway, but no confirmation about future updates like 4.3 or 4.4 firmwares, but I'll keep posting about what's new on Xperia L's software updates here, jist for informing you, and for battery, it is bad to decent, but with active use, it lasts at like 7-10 hours without recharging, with my experience for nearly 10 month using it,
Just reminding it's specs for you :
- 8 Megapixels Camera, Exmor RS Sensor, HD Video Recording.

HTC One ME (Dual Sim)(M9EW)

Hello,
HTC introduced the One ME dual-SIM with Helio X10 chipset and support for Indian 4G LTE networks. This handset was unveiled in China earlier this month and will be sold in Classic Rose Gold and Meteor Grey color options in India.
The One ME is HTC’s second WQHD smartphone with fingerprint sensor after the One M9+ to enter the Indian market. Styled like the rest of the One product family, the device has a polycarbonate body.
Specs-wise, the device packs the latest 64-bit MediaTek Helio X10 MT6795T mobile chipset with 2.2GHz octa-core CPU and 3GB of RAM. A 5.2” QHD display, 32GB of expandable memory, and 20MP main camera are also on board. HTC One ME boots Sense-d Android Lollipop.
The dual-SIM handset supports Indian 4G LTE network bands - 1800Mhz (Band 3) and 2600 MHz (Band 40) to deliver fast mobile web speeds, but only in select regions. Other connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Wi-Fi Direct, DLNA, Bluetooth 4.1 with apt-X, and GPS with A-GPS/GLONASS/Beidou support.
HTC One ME dual-SIM is priced for India at INR 40,500 ( about $640). The device will be available from this weekend onwards.

anybody ?:crying::crying:

I've read some reviews about it as I'm so interested in dual sim flagship phones. Since this phone has high specs with a very reasonable price as it's now available now for $550-$600; it really got my attention.
Most of the people say that it heats up and drains battery faster. It also lags sometimes with multitasking and heavy gaming. Other than that it's working fine. I really like the specs and the design but disappointed that it lacks wireless charging and also doesn't give the chance to add a wireless charging receiver as it has a fixed back battery cover.
Anyone owning the device could give us a real feedback about it!

First of all thanks OP for this thread for Htc One Me ... i am tired searching thread and forum for this devive in XDA :thumbup:
ITS REALLY VALUE FOR MONEY FULLY FEATURE PACKED FLAGSHIP DEVICE (but somehow its being ignored)
Just check it, You will love it
My thought about this device is:
This is currently best value for mony flagship device. It has everything (and more) that current flagship device should have....and price is comparabily very low price. Last day I went to magnet mall in vileparle west mumbai and checked this device... around 20 min from design to sound to FP sensor to dual sim...its awesome device. The couler i used was gold...and device look awedome golden. Here are some major features packed in this phone, these are checked by me and confirmed specs.
* Nice back camera with 4k recording and front 4up
* Latest 64 bit MTK helio 10 processor
* Dual sim dual stanndby
* Touch fingerprint * homekey
* Fm radio
* IR blaster
* 32 gb memory plus 3 gb ram
* Sense 7 and Android 5.0.2
* Dolby dual BoomSound speaker
* 5.2 inch 2k Res screen.
* Price Only: 37000 INR (at Alfa Mumbai)
* Other features are same as other Htc flagship devices.
BUT UNFORTUNATELY, even after so good device and already availability there is NO FORUM FOR THIS DEVICE IN XDA. I already requested forum for this device via 'New Device Forum request' (here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62090540 ) thread. And hope soon it will get its own forum.
Please request/ suggest forum if you like this device.

I also got 2 hands on with this device....as i mentioned in prev post....best value for money device till date with all features.
But there are some things which could not be performed at hand on.
So please provide some details about below points.
1. How is Battery Life (Its 2840 mah and is it enough for 5.2 + 2k screen)
2. Performance (MTK helio10 is really capable handling graphic loaded games and apps)
3. Is there Heating Issue? (I heard somewhere about this.....???!!!)

1. Battery life gets him through a day. It really depends on your usage.
2. Processor is damn good, no performance issues. Gaming isn't that great though due to a sucky GPU, highly extensive games will see frame drops.
3. Every smartphone heats when used for long hours without resting. Nothing uncommon. No "heating issue" or "overheating".

Yes, it's a great value for money device. Since it's not mine, I won't have new findings, but if you ask anything in particular, I'll be able to find out and inform.

Just received the device yesterday, I bought it from eBay. I'm really impressed with the design. The grey one gives you a metal build feel. Sense 7 is great. There is FM and USB host option if there is anyone wondering. I didn't assess battery life yet, not before one week. I noticed that the boom sound is less in intensity compared to m8. There is some heating up but not exaggerated as people complain about, maybe coz I didn't overload it seriously but with normal use it's OK. I still didn't check the mhl adaptor. Overall it should be considered as a flagship phone but with a very reasonable price.

Hello guys. I would like to buy this fantastic phone , but I live in Rome . I use a SIM Card with Operator 3. Do You believe this phone is compatible with the LTE bands in Italy ? Thank you soo much...

htc m9 me
Anyone know of a root method that works for this phone?
And would the htc one m9+ root work as both devices are basically the same?

Go here and check (Match) your network band. I think it should work.
