  • Loudspeaker isn't very clear

  • Phone application stutters when you have low free space
  • No MicroSD slot

If the Xperia S just isn't within your budget, you will find the Xperia P nearly as capable - providing you can put up with Android Gingerbread
Pros:
  • Excellent display
  • HDMI
  • Feels like a premium device
  • More intuitive to use than the Xperia S
Cons:
  • Display could be a tad brighter
  • Android 2.3 is starting to feel a little dated

Sony Xperia P review

Smaller sibling to the Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy S3 -challenging Sony Xperia S , big brother of the entry-level Sony Xperia U , the mid-range Sony Xperia P is no awkward middle child, but a boundary-pushing smartphone that is knocking on the door of a number of its more expensive rivals.

This is one really good phone, i bought it to replace my galaxy s which i got 2year ago, and it was exactly the same price as what i paid for the galaxy s, the screen is stunning even in the brightest of days, quick camera from sleep to snap, this is well worth the money.
Pros:
  • great screen in sun light
Cons:
  • not ics yet

Sony Xperia P review

Well-made, intelligent and desirable, but its bigger and faster brother is only £35 more. A tough call for those who like to have the best.
