Hello guys...
After too much confusion I finally decided to purchase XPS. Just few questions:
1) I read it has plastic body, does that plastic body get scratches too easily after all its main advantage is its design ? Because every now and then my phone fell down from the bed
2) What about its dev community ? Are the new games like asphalt 6, modern combat 3, shadowgun available for the xps ?
3) and yes, what about the Yellow tint issue ? Is it resolved by the sony or still I am in luck to find a good phone ?
4) What you suggest, should I wait for HTC One X price to drop so I can buy it ... Because I would love Quad core, will my xps dual core lag if I play games too much ?
Guys.. I am thinking to change the decision just bcoz of yellow tint issue
talk.sonymobile.com/thread/34135?start=645&tstart=0 45 pages !!! too many users having this problem
Do you still want answers to your questions since you're thinking of not getting it? What device are you planning to get in that case?

I am confused again When I first got to knw abt yellow tint I thought it must be on very few phones.. but I guess I am wrong ?
I really like xperia, got xperia active right now. Don't want to get something else than xperia s but I don't want to take risk !
If you "don't want to take the risk" then choose a different device. Otherwise, get it (It's your choice).

Do you have xperia s? or if any of the reader has it.. can I ask what "good thoughts" you have so u purchased it regardless of its yellow tint issue... ?
the case on SEs don't get scratches easy, I dropped mine about 12 times, no scratches on the case or cracks on the screen, only thing is when I used my foot to bring it back to me - bad idea.

Some people report not having it, treating it by pressing down on the screen, it fading away overtime or when the battery temperature is low, it staying forever, etc, so I don't know.
I think S2 or Sensation XE would be my choice if I don't buy XPS because SIII and HTC One X is out of my budget. These would be my first time purchasing any non sony ericsson mobile. I had W302, then X10 mini pro, then Active and now it would be XPS if there had been NO yellow tint issue ... But I would search on internet more on this and tell you guys which mobile I go with.
Any other choice than XPS, S2, XE with same budget?
Guys.. Even for yellow tint issue I am going for XPS I will try to purchase the phone from latest batch and will tell you how it goes !!! I hope I won't get the yellow tint issue :good:
if ever u get the yellow tint, you can get it replaced.
about scratches, mine just got its first bigtime,. fell about 2 feet on street and top corner border for the back cover easyly got dented! was thinking of melting it back to position but it may just look worse.,
soft matte finish = bigtime scratch magnet

I've had my Xperia S since initial release in the UK so I will answer these questions as best I can for you.
1. You'll be fine with not getting scratches too easily because I've only got a few scratches on my back cover and I've dropped it loads when I've been drunk.
2. Yes, those games you mentioned are available but the 3 newest ones to become available are Asphalt 7, The Amazing Spiderman and Sonic 4 Episode II and they all run perfectly without lag. I confirm that myself.
3. I believe I'm right in saying that you won't have the yellow tint issue because that was only on the earlier releases, like mine. AFAIK, all models made since then haven't had this issue. But even if you do, as mentioned you can send it to Sony and they will send you a replacement.
Not gonna answer question 4 because you've already bought this phone. I hope this has helped you

Thanks, Games are working very good. Like shadowgun, modern combat 3, asphalt 6 have very good graphics and looking very good on this phone. For yellow tint, I heated my phone with these games and donot find it. I hope it will be stay this forever!
Like in thread, write here what u expect from the Xperia M succesor, and do the things we already know about her (resolution,processor etc.) fit ur bill.
Soooo, let me be first.
On paper she looks quite nice, if she will be cheap enough (up to 300 dollars) im in.
Only thing that im worried about is her screen. I dont want to see xperiaSP quality screen here. This will be low/mid end device, and i shouldnt want too many from it, but still. I think that if sony will do quite good optimalization for it and they will give to her good screen (good, i dont need super mega hiper OMG screen) she will be good option to buy. Dont forget that now her biggest oponent is Moto G which has super performance, nice screen and she is quite cheap, so it will be nice challenge for M2.
Will it be a nice and dev-friendly phone? Write below
Why is m2 considered a lady here :/

Soryyy, in my lang "xperia" word sounds like a girl
No coz shes price at over 20k
Probably not
It would fit my bill perfectly if only Sony chose to have a replaceable battery instead of a non-removable one. Considering that Android devices are hard on battery life, replaceable batteries is a must IMHO.
Man even the LG L90 offers more features than this phone at 16k but is officially priced at 20k
Press thanks :good: if I've helped :highfive:
What made me consider this brand in first place was having a Sony SW2, and pairing with a Sony handset allows me to use all the features of it, but when i read the spec sheet and found that between other things these handsets are the ones that have ANT+ connectivity that made my day. And €245 in Europe is a reasonably price for a Dual Handset.
I've been reading nearly everywhere that this phone has very low calling volume.
Is this true? Have many users experienced this problem??

Sure the price per feature is much lower there.
If you hold both phones in your hands the difference in build quality is glaring.

I got an M2, despite of being exactly the same opinion. It came with my contract. Lucky, I can report the M2 is quite ok in terms of battery life.
Here is my initial impression:
- acceptable battery
- screen is big but has lower end resolution
- light leaching on black
- relatively dim screen at factory setting, but still very well readable
- glossy housing is a PITA
- reactively heavy
- not nice form factor (as previous curved Xperias)
- not water resistant
- boot up animation is something for kids
- speaker sound is not as good as others
- sound could be louder overall
- loads of bloatware
- card slot cover flimsy, I am counting the days for it to drop off
- main button well articulated and easy to reach at the right location
- volume button to small and should be above the main button
- the nice LED on the bottom does not work, respectively I see it only working when changing the themes ... ?
Would it be so hard for companies to equippe phones with a rubber outside frame for basic drop protection? Why construct everything "throw away" style?
The volume buttons is in the same position as the Z2. If you look at Z2's power button you will be surprise at how convenient M2's power button is. The LED at the bottom also glows when switching songs in Walkman
After 4 days of usage
I found the biggest M2 annoyance is the greenish screen tint. The second biggest annoyance is the light sensor implementation. There is screen brightness pumping. I installed YAAB to correct that. I hope Sony can correct this with a software update (?).
LED at the bottom should be modded to be useful.
Glossy surface is also an annoyance. I ordered a rubber case.
Speaker opening at the bottom is exactly at the spot which I use to position my small finger to support the phone. Seal is perfect. That might be the reason why some people say sound being quiet.
The rest is quite ok. I
The screen tint and light sensor, all true. Also the camera, I often get yellowish shots ( maybe the firmware is the problem, reported to sony forum )
About LED, I agree with you that it should be modded to be of better use
I don't find the glossy back annoying at all
I am right now confussed B/W Xperia m2 and Htc Desire 700.Can you tell me from your experience about this phone Biggest Pros and Cons
By the looks of it, I'm quite satisfied with the phone. It darn fast, and I like it. Camera would be only cons I have so far, but everything else is good. As for camera, it's quite bad for the night shots, but good on the day shots.
Maybe it would bee too much to expect phone of this price to have everything perfect, so I don't mind the camera being bad. Battery is also good. It can last 2 days if phone is not used much.

Close to three days if I only use for mail, messenging, calls, and the occasional website.
Still close to 48 h with frequent navigation use.
That's certainly not bad compared to most other phones, but target should be 5 - 7 days.
The screen uses astonishing low power. This phone is sure good for travellers. The greenish screen tint gets unnoticed after a while, the camera is reasonable, 4.3 is not good.
I got an Xperia M2 yesterday, and I'm loving it. yes I do have the same sort of greenish/yellow screen tint, but I actually prefer this color reproduction to the harsh blue-tinted display of the original XM. The camera is also a massive improvement from the XM, and the device is quite more responsive. 10/10 worth it
Got mine a fewer days. I already have newer ones Xperia like Z1 and ZQ; a model made from Z1 to Brazil. The M2 at the first moment seems a compact Z2, like the design, the place where buttons are. Weight is good for the size, also it is thin. I think Sony could do a 5inch screen cause there are too much bars arounding the lcd or if they cut, made more a compact device, like they did with ZQ, made it perfect and confortable. The LCD quality is ok, nothing really to be glad like others Xperia but for a mid from Sony i expected more ppi, it has almost less 100 compared to Moto G. Also the glass i didnt like, keeps too easy dust and fingers prints and it isnt too easy to clean. Camera resolution is awful, i wont comment about the VGA cause dont worth it, so i couldn believe that Sony done that, even that old mobiles like Xperia ARC, X10, they have a much better cam. Really dont understand why Sony made such a dummbie phone. Now, the surprise is that came with and old 4.3 JB in times that we are already in 4.4.4 versions. The CPU is good, felt some laggys, nothing really bad but for a quad should make better operations. Volume sound is poor, even with headset, like the equalizer and the multiple options but unfortunatly these couldnt make sounds better. Finally battery isnt nothing especial, mine is with almost 18hours of good usage before a make a new charge cycle. Anyway, my opinions are based that already have the Moto G, a trully competitor and that made really good impressions.
copper for me. so so sexy...
Why did SONY get rid off the PURPLE version???
Can't say which color i'd choose, maybe i'll wait for Z4?!
I like the copper one...

Maybe they will make the Z4 in red
Copper of course!

white is alright, but to me the white just adds too much contrast, the darker colors tend to add more immersion when you're just want to drown yourself the display. besides..maybe if iphone weren't white i would consider the color, but i want to make sure my device looks nothing like a iphone, primary reason i've never bought a white phone, i would rather rock a pink phone if white and pink were the only options, that's how much i despise apple.

I don't like the fact that this year they decided to make the front of the device white too, it looks weird since you can see how big the bezels really are and all the sensors , I guess we can never be truly satisfied , I know there were a lot people complaining last year because they wanted the front to be white too :crying:
I would love a white one, but I believe tmobile is only carrying black. Their version will also come with 32gb, but it doesn't matter because I use a sd card?

Depends on the use. SD Card can hold music, videos, pictures, emulator roms, etc. Play store apps, however, use the internal storage. As phones get more powerful, the assets get larger. Baldur's Gate on my phone is currently taking up 2.3GB of space. Bard's Tale is taking up 1.72GB. Two games are taking up around 4GB on my phone. I'd LIKE to have a GTA on there and maybe an Asphalt. If I get the 32GB Z3 I could hold any game I fancied... for now.
Going for the white one
White Anti glare screenprotector on both back and front + a The wireless charging case hopefully or just a normal flip cover
I ordered the copper one... Would take the silver green one, too. My LG G2 was black, so I want something different this time
Black goes with everything!!!
Ordered the Copper one, and the Green Compact for my wife. They should arrive in the very beginning of October!
I will get the Sony style cover for mine, the Compact will get some wallet style cover when I find a decent one.
I'm leaving Samsung behind now, been true to them for a couple of years (2xGalaxy N9000, the first Note, 2xNote 10.1, Tab 3-7", Tab 3-8", S4) but feel that they are getting to close to some kind of monopoly ideas, they are trying to force me to buy Samsung for all products, they don't understand that this is the reason why many of us despice the fruit company. Nothing wrong with the hardware (nothing special about it either) but the i-everything you must have to get it to work is a no-go for me.
My first step towards Sony was the SW2 that I bought 1,5 years ago instead of buying the Gear even if I did have the S4 at that time.
Seeing how much the software have improved in the SW2 during this time I thought SONY would get the chance now.
I recieved my Z3 10 days ago.
It's superfast and the batterylife is awesome.
But 2 days ago, i noticed a damage in my Screen.
It's not big, but you can feel and see it..
I never dropped the phone, i even didn't use it often, because actually it's my secondary phone.
I never put it in my pocket with keys or money or anything.
So this morning i noticed a crack in the screen.
It's not big, too. But you can see it..
It looks like the screen is to big and instable and cracked.
This happened over night without any external influence.
Anybody got this too?
maybe it was the neighbors cat? never heard of a phone that screen mysteriously cracks itself. any pics?
.
Actually, the screen of the Z2 cracked spontaneously over the night some people. (From one corner to another.) Sony is not using Gorilla Glass but the Dragontrail, idk how good it is.

I think it's time for a recall (that they will never do).

I feel the same way.. I went ahead and ordered an iPhone 6 plus to hold me over until I make up my mind and Sony decide to release price and availability on T-Mobile.
So here are some pictures.
It's a very small crack, it doesn't disturbs me but i think it isn't waterproof anymore...

I have an idea what can cause the crack.
When i hear Music with the speakers and full volume, the display vibrates a bit.
Can this be the reason?

Actually, it happens when the glass is under pressure / stress.
Gave my mum my Galaxy Nexus a half year ago. A week ago she put it in a stacker in the car with much space, but rubber on the ground. We drove an hour on the Autobahn, not even fast, suspension doesn't even move much because it's so flat.. still it broke into 100 pieces, I've never seen a cracked screen like that. It didn't even move. But to be fair, it fell to the ground very often. Like 20 times, without any damage. I guess it was a bit under stress / pressure and cracked at the slightest touch...
If the glass from the z3 is under stress because it's a faulty unit, it may even crack because of a fast changing temperature. Out of your pocket --> cold table? Could happen imo. That should be covered by the warranty imo. But that depends on the country where you live in.. In germany for example we have a relatively strong consumer protection. If you have absolutely no scratches on the phone, it should be obvious that this is not your fault.

I've had enough phones to know, they don't break from forces of nature or on their own. Hot to Cold, Cold to hot, faulty or not, doesn't happen.

You had some phones and they didn't break? Wow.
I had some cars that didn't break in years of usage. So cars can't break from forces of nature or on their own.
When there is constant pressure on the glass from the frame itself, it will break much faster or with less force.
But keep ignoring the facts and please, please never read this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_glass_breakage
OP should read this, Sony repaired several Xperia Z1 phones for free:

There is no pressure from the frame, the glass fits inside it and rests on a lip. Hence why people have "gap issues". The actual frame puts no pressure on the glass under normal use as far as I can see. Unless of course the frame warps slightly, then I could see pressure building up at corners.

That's what I thought, too. And I had the same ideas like that famous "neighbor's cat", didn't take it for serious.
Till this morning, when I found a nice crack in the screen after charging the Z3 over night, listening to music prior to sleeping.
Crack starts at the right side if the upper speaker, extends down to the lower left edge of the phone. You can see and feel it, touchscreen still working, but with problems.
No drops, no weight placed on the Z3, no famous cats, not even mice.
Reason ? Unknown.
A bold guess: Vibrations. Z3 was resting with it's lower edge against a metal bar of the little table next to my bed, I had music playing quite loud. As the upper speaker causes the phone to vibrate noticeably, the constant vibrations plus the metal bar preventing the Z3 from moving might have caused the issue. And it's the upper speaker where the crack starts.
Oh, oh, Sony...
UPDATE
Just had a call with Vodafone Germany - they told me it's a KNOWN problem many users experienced. They also revealed it's a manufacturing fault, and there's an agreement with Sony regarding repair or exchange of affected devices.
Passi1909: Du bist also nicht allein.
Oh, oh, Sony...
UPDATE 2
Just had a chat with Sonymobile. Unfriendly as ever. OF COURSE they don't know anything about the problem. OF COURSE there are no manufacturing defects. OF COURSE they don't know anything about agreements with Vodafone.
So it's the typical Sonymobile Germany habit. (They also completely ignored thousands of bent Z2 Tablets a few months ago.)
Presently, I am speaking with Vodafone Germany again to find a proper solution. But I guess I'll say goodbye to the Z3, don't want to risk another failure.
Aha, interesting. NOW Vodafone Germany (different agent) claims there are NO agreements with Sony.
Strange world.
Trying the Sony repair service, now.
I can foresee a nice class lawsuit headed their way. Sony might go bankrupt in a couple of years the way they have lost the walkman wars (audio wars), and forget about Video wars too - Samsung and LG are really getting in there, and mobile wars - gone are the days where the P800, P900, P1000 (??) were the best phones ever to the fact that Apple now has a clear dominance there and Samsung has literally taken Sony out when it comes to Android.
I can imagine that it might be time to teach Sony a lesson of cheating people with 6 monthly devices that are "downgrades" in terms of "life".
Chefproll, start recording your calls and get things documented.
I wanted to finally buy a sony Smartphone on christmas, in this case the z3, but after I've heard a lot worse problems from this, I can probably forget it. pity, because i thought that the sony xperia z3 is the most prettiest and best Smartphone on the market

It's a nice, cute device which is real fun to play with.
But I just cannot live with the subzero camera - and with a crack in the display. Device now is unusable, touchscreen now behaves totally erratic.
I just ordered a Samsung Galaxy S5. I NEVER EVER wished to buy another Samsung device. But after my experience with the Z3's camera, the cracked screen (don't listen to music) and the attitude of the Sonymobile staff - goodbye, Sony.

i will buy a htc one m8 or a nexus 5.
i cannot believe this ****...
My Z3 has a really visble touchscreen grid. I don't live in the Sahara and this little spring sun makes it light up and sparkle like it wanted to remind me it's there.
They said Z2 was affected and Z3 was problem free, probably Z2 had a grill more than a grid.
Tell me I'm the only one and Sony will be happy to swap my unit for a new one.
Please tell me
ps a part from that (and other problems my screen has) I'm absolutely in love with this phone and it has been only a dozen hours.
The Grid is on every Z3 I've seen so far. One mate has an protection cover and its the only way to make it "barely" visible.
I let my phone repair under warranty because of this dots but the new touchscreen is only slighly better. The dots and grid is still visible in sunlight.
The iPhone and Samsung I owned before didn't have this "grid". It annoys me a bit and for sure I will never buy an phone again which shows these.
Z...Z1...Z2 and now Z3 - all devices had or have those dots..
That's digitaliser Sony is using...
If I can remember well, I think my old Xperia S had same digitaliser as well...
That's right, I also saw this only on Sony devices but I really don't care a bit for that....
It's not problem, it's not hardware failure - Sony built it that way...
