Worth to buy? - Sony Xperia L

Hi guys,
For a month or so i'm looking at a phone i can buy and found out the XL is quite a good device but are there any problems/bugs with it i should be aware of? and the cheapest one i could find is 219? is this a good price? (BTW i live in belgium)
thanks,

Xperia L is a device that is worth buying it. The price that you suggest it good. I paid around 260 euro in Ireland outside network.
For bugs I may said that you have to press a little harder the touchscreen and the quality of pictures in dark light is poor. In a good light photos are great.

well all bugs so far are software based and should be fixed with an update other than that well so far this is the best device in its price range.

um what do you mean by touch harder the touch screen seems pretty fine to me...?

Sometimes you need to touch it harded for screen to recognize your finger, but mostly is fine and no problem at all. At 2.17 update that improve a lot.

thanks everyone!

(POLL) How many Infinitys have you gone through to get a good one? (POLL)

I am looking into buying the Infinity but am concerned about the Q/C issues that I have been reading about. I am adding a poll in the hopes that I will be able to get a better visual representation of how many tablets people have gone through before getting a tablet that doesn't have any issues. It is also my hope that this poll will help others who are in my position. I know that there are other threads detailing the problems but I am hoping for an easier way to see the actual results. Thank you for your participation!

great poll to run and showing the results that I have experienced from Asus products. I have had a TF101, then a TF201 (standard GPS issues) and now my TF700T. Also have a UX31E ultrabook that works just as great as my transformer.
Only one for me too. Never had a problem.

I didnt tick anything on the poll. But I bought one and exchanged it for a note coming next week. If i dont like the note Ill probably take another stab at the infinity when JB comes out.
Third one was perfect for me. First had badly bonded screen, second was worse still, third seems to be fault free, now unlocked running zeus 4, very happy.

Never had a problem, too! So happy with my TF700!
Only one for me. Never had any problem with my TF700
I bought one, returned it and didn't bother with another. After issues with the 101 and 201, I'm sick of farting with Asus.
Gave up on number five. I might try again in a month or two if I see more positive threads in here.

Check out my post on blotches on my screen..I may be selling this on kijiji when it comes back from RMA.. not impressed as the keyboard had to be fixed one due it separating on one corner..
Hey Guys!
I have gotten my second Infinity yesterday, since the first one had serious clicking issues.
Guess what? This time: clicking frame + slight light bleed AND the wrong colour!
I really don't know what to do...
Should I request a new one or just ask my money back and buy something else?
What do you think?
Only one like most people. People that have problems will always scream louder than those without. The forums here may seem negative at times but I guarantee you most people are more than happy with there tablets.

THank you for your reply back.. Has anyone else seen that blotching occur??
I sent colour photos along with my RMA form...
I am most likely going to hold onto the Infinity and then when the ASus VIVO Windows 8 comes out , I will get it.... you guys feel that I should be able to get a good price for the Infinty as long as I keep it in good shape..with the keyboard dock??
Anyone know the release dates for the VIVO here in Canada??
First one.. with no issues.
I want to thank everyone who has replied and voted in the poll. It's nice to visualize the results.
Edit: I wanted to add that I plan on getting the 32gb version within the next month.

I Got screen lifting issues still waiting for a replacement Infinity. It's been 2weeks no word yet, anyone getting screen bleeding and I don't like how the tablet gets air pockets under the screen if you press a little too hard on the screen. I've had random freezing issues and the screen just blanking out for no reason. Have to reboot to get the screen going to again.....Weird.

Thinking about going from my 300t , to the 700t

Picked up a t300 and,I like it but the screen scratches very easily,I barely used it and it's already scratched,..my old t101 ,I let my 4 year old play it, he's dropped it lots of times,..spilled stuff on it,..it's a year old and doesn't have one scratch,.....im thinking about paying the extra 100 and getting the 700,., any of you guys had the 300 and moved to the 700? Or vice versa,..I really don't know what I wanna do at this point... Thanks for any input

I have both and switch between them often. The screen on the tf700 is amazing and if you want to use it outside or in direct sunlight its the best hands down. Performance wise the 300t has jellybean which makes regular task much smoother and if you use browser2ram you have a great internet surfing machine. But if you are into gaming the performance difference is noticed, especially in demanding games and emulators.
Now that's all well and good but for me there is one big issue against the tf700. My first tf300 was a keeper no problems at all, But I've gone thru 5 tf700s and counting because of QC. I wont get into the whole story but just check out the tf700 forums for specifics there are plenty of topics on the subject.
Normally for one hundred dollar difference I'd say its a no brainer but playing the infinity exchange game gets old fast. Also if you decide to go for it get it from a retailer with a good exchange policy.

Yo...I see you're in NOLA...
I went through two TF700's from Amazon because the screen was separating from the body on both among other things. So I ended up getting the TF300 and I'll hold on to it for a while. But in comparing the two it kinda seems like a iPhone 4s to iPhone 5 situation, pretty much the same device just with updated specs. Now the screen on the TF700 is nice, very crisp so I guess you really have to just make your own judgment call on what you're looking for in a tablet.
If you go with the TF700 buy it from a B&M store if you can so you can inspect it and quickly return it if there are any issues...
Good luck...
Lol damn now I really don't know what to do,...I didn't know the 700t had that many issues,..I know the screen on the 300t is plastic,I barely messed with it and has 4 scratches on it,...and that really disappoInts me, I thought with the bigger processor , better resolution, and gorilla glass it would be a no brainer to go with the 700t
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, I mean you may have better luck though. Retailers may have worked through the bad devices by now so like I said it comes down to what you truly want...
ok first of all this is my one and only tf700t. I have zero issues no screen separation, no screen lagg etc, clearly qc issues have been resolved or i just got extremely luck with mine Best tablet i have had to date and the screen at 1920x1200 is amazing i cant go back to 1200x800

I've had mine about 4 months now and it is my second. I got it from BB in NY then exchanged it for one in NJ. The first one worked fine but had some clouding. The one I have now has given me 0 issues so far and its used daily. Its sad to hear about the bad production runs because ASUS has been really good at supporting the software on their devices.

Okay friends. Found a supplier laptopscreen.com
The issue is, there is no manual or video guide available. Did anyone successfully done DIY replacement of LCD or digitizer? Is it required to remove the PCB s and components for detaching the LCD from digitizer?
Any info appreciated. Thanks

Your almost better off buying a new unit, my man. Unless the lcds from another asus model is compatible, which would most likely be the 700, which would be the same price.

[Q] would you buy it now?

I have a chance to purchase a new in box TF101 and keyboard dock for less than $300.
I currently have an SGS3 on JB and a touchpad running ICS. The touchpad runs fine, 2 day battery life and does pretty much everything i want, i'm just wondering if this transformer would be a good upgrade.
IMO, I wouldn't spend that kind of money on any Tegra 2 device. Tegra 2 is getting very old, and Tegra 4 devices are coming out. My TF is still a capable device, but the technology is old.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I love my TF101 and dock, but for $300, I would not spend the money. You can get a 32 GB Nexus 7 (quad core) for $250.
Heck, a used/refurb TF300 isnt much more than $300 if you look for some deals.

I just looked, November 21 woot.com had the TF300T 16 GB with dock for 305 shipped.
It is not around every day for that price, but if you are patient and keep looking, you should be able to find the keyboard and tablet for 300-400.

300 is a bit steep in my books too but then again I have 2 that i am fighting with family to get time on them. before EOS4 rom there was no fight but thanks too all them briliant minds working on that rom I am looking for another one as well. mainly cause I cant convince the boss that Im worth 500 to 600 for a new device lol.
SO.... im sure i would pop out 250 if i could find one with a dock
Would do perhaps for $225 +/- 25 if I wanted a 10" tablet and definitely wanted the dock and was on a budget. If you want a 7" tablet and/or don't care about the dock, there are other options to consider.
It also depends on what you want to do with it.

Mind.... timduru deserves the full credit for the work on that rom right now. With that said, he's close to the only guy working from a development level on this tablet right now so I feel the days are numbered on this hardware platform.

That is sooo true! Timduru has brought the EOS4 rom to a very stable state. From my point of veiw there are only 2 very minor issues that most wouldnt even notice. other than those every thing just works and smoothly too.
You can see all the hours of work Timduru has put in and he has improvements rolling out almost daily :good:
**edit** should say its EOS4 with KAT kernal that are running so well
Thanks to everyone for the info, i've decided to pass, if you are a sams club member and in sioux falls, sd it was $260 last i checked (their number if you want to try and have them ship it 605-362-0119) go right ahead it was there on saturday.
I did manage to pick up a tf700 return from them for $217 w/o the dock, but my wife has made that off limits as it will be a graduation present for her middle child so i'm sticking to my touchpad on 4.04 for now.

Best Tablet for Remote PC Control

Hi,
I'm looking to get a tablet for the first time but one of the most important things for me is that I want to be able to effectively control my PC remotely (not necessarily outside of home) and even game remotely through my PC if possible.
I figured that the Tegra 4 is a good chip to go for as it will provide a great android experience as well as the fact that project shield I think is coming to all tegra 4 devices and splashtop, the seeming leader, seems to always give special preference to tegra.
Another idea I had would be to get a tablet hybrid as I think it would make controlling easier. This has left me deciding between the transformer pad infinity (new model) or the HP slatebook x2.
I think the main differences between the two are display resolution. The asus has a higher resolution of 2560x1600 over the hp's 1080p but I don't know if this is necessarily a good thing, as my PC display is only 1080p and the tegra 4 gpu will have to work twice as hard in android games. I think the asus has USB 3.0 instead of 2.0 on the HP too.
Anyway, I'd really like to hear from the embodiment of wisdom that is XDA about which of the two is better or if I'm missing a really obvious better tablet out there.
Thanks guys
Sent from my Nexus 4
I don't have much of an answer for you, but thought I'd bump the thread as I'm currently trying to decide between the same two tablets. We'll probably have to wait for them to actually be released first before anyone will be able to say which is better for any particular job.
One thing I can see is that previous Asus models have had a good presence here on XDA (e.g. ROMs), compared to previous HP models.

The slatebook x2's resolution is 1920x1200
I'm right now writing this post with my Slatebook x2 and i'm really happy with this, it wasn't really hard to choose over Asus and this, because Asus has that too huge display resolution and i think Tegra 4 is not ready for that high resolution, also 1920x1200 on a 10.2" display is almost 250ppi which is really high for a tablet. Tegra 4 doesn't have to run on it's full power for every touch on the screen because it has that much less pixels. I'm not watching 10" screen so close that i would see the difference of 2560 pixels over 1920.
But to be honest, i don't know how good is HP at updating Android high-end tablets, so Asus might be better choise if you don't want to risk that the tablet might have bugs that HP won't update.

How did you get it so fast? Ordered mine today. Although I'm in the U.S. Do you notice any lag with the device at all. I'm concerned too with HP updates but that's really the only thing I'm worried about. Otherwise I think it will be a great tablet and the price is right.

I live in finland and i'm really not sure why it was so early at the store. Everywhere reads it will be available at August.
But what comes to the software, it is slightly buggy and laggy. Left upper corner for sliding down the notifications is buggy, sometimes works but usually it freezes for few secs and sometimes it reloads whole notification bar. Kernel was updated at June 7 or 8 last time, but don't know about the firmware.

Wow really? I guess I may end up returning it then. Reason I bought it is I am tired of the constant lag on my infinity pad even with cromi rom so it was due for a replacement. And from the small amount of reviews I've seen did not mention any lag on the slate x2. So this is a bit of a disappointment. Thanks for the feedback.

Mostly the lag is unnoticeable, but you should judge yourself. Now after week the display have started to get junk, I'm not sure how to explain it. Like it messes up the contrast totally, but when I slightly try to bend the display it gets normal. Annoying and i'm about the return this and wait for the Asus one.

Ok will take your advice. As far as your screen goes you probably have a lose lcd ribbon cable. But could be a bad connector as well. I assumed HP would have better quality control but I guess not. It's a good thing HP has a 21 day return policy so it won't be any loss if I had to return it.

Just got the slate x2 today (typing on it now) and it is overall a very smooth device. I would say its even smoother than the nexus 10 that I used for a few weeks which I returned to keep my tf700t. Transition and opening apps are smooth. No stutter when downloading from the play store. Performance wise this is a very good tablet IMO. Now the negative. I'm not a fan of the yellowish screen and the brightness is not as bright as my TF700 Reminded me somewhat of the nexus 10 screen. Design wise isn't great either but I guess thats comparing it to my tf700. The other negative, I cant find a way of rooting this yet and no xda forum. I found 1 thread that I might try though which was used to root the slate 7. I have an update waiting on the tablet but I'm gonna wait it out. I was reading this had an intel gpu but hp.com states otherwise but for $479 including a dock, its a good buy IMO.
As far as connecting to my work PC using splashtop, it works great. I love the multitouch touchpad to zoom in and out.

Transition and opening apps are smooth. No stutter when downloading from the play store. Performance wise this is a very good tablet IMO. Now the negative. I'm not a fan of the yellowish screen and the brightness is not as bright as my TF700 Reminded me somewhat of the nexus 10 screen. Design wise isn't great either but I guess thats comparing it to my tf700. The other negative, I cant find a way of rooting this yet and no xda forum. I found 1 thread that I might try though which was used to root the slate 7. I have an update waiting on the tablet but I'm gonna wait it out. I was reading this had an intel gpu but hp.com states otherwise but for $479 including a dock, its a good buy IMO.
As far as connecting to my work PC using splashtop, it works great. I love the multitouch touchpad to zoom in and out.

I got the update august 1st day and it was 418Mb. That update fixed almost every bug and stuttering from the device. But I still think I will return this and buy the Asus one for the aluminium body.

Definitely the Asus will be a better looking unit with better screen. Also noticed the wifi is weak on this one compared to my Infinity but its probably a harware issue. I'm getting a replacement for it but hopefully Asus announces theirs soon so I can decide if its worth the savings I'm getting with the slate x2.
