Sony Xperia S Review
What started as a beautiful marriage 10 years ago, ended this Jan where Sony and Ericsson went their own separate ways. This was more of a sweet than bitter parting of ways as Sony can fully concentrate on upping their game in the mobile space and make use of various patents and technology acquired...

Sony Xperia S review
The Sony Xperia S looks good and packs a decent set of hardware components, including an excellent screen and camera. Aside from the standard Android complaint of abysmal battery life, the phone is let down by its main control buttons – a triumph of art over function – and cluttered and out-of-date...

Sony Xperia S
The Sony Xperia S has an undeniably gorgeous HD screen, high-quality audio, an impressive camera and plenty of clout. But it's let down by clunky handset design and software that could be more streamlined.
Cons:
- Needs an upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich
- Clunky handset design
- No microSD card slot

Sony Xperia S review
The Sony Xperia S is the first product to emerge from the newly consolidated Sony Mobile group. Although it'll inevitably be treated as the bellwether for Sony's attempt at going it alone on the mobile front, this phone's design and development can rightfully be attributed to the former Sony...
Pros:
- Attractive
- distinctive design
- High-definition display
- Strong camera performance
- Good voice clarity and reception
Cons:
- Ships with dated software
- Color banding may spoil display for some
- Still no good reason to care about PlayStation certification
- No microSD card slot or user-accessible battery

Sony Xperia S Android phone
The Sony Xperia S has a great screen, a very good camera and provides a slick user experience. However, it lacks expandable memory and a removeable battery, is still waiting for the latest Android software update and its capacitive shortcut buttons are unresponsive at best. Overall, the Xperia S is a great looking phone, but it could have been a much better one. Sony's Xperia S Android phone is the company's first product release following its acquisition of the Sony Ericsson joint venture last October. The Xperia S has a great screen, a good camera and looks every bit the premium device, but it has too many niggling flaws to immediately recommend.
Pros:
- Excellent display
- Slick performance and user interface
- Decent battery life
Cons:
- No expandable memory
- Terrible capacitive shortcut keys
- Still waiting for Ice Cream Sandwich

Sony Xperia S offers great camera and software, but lacking hardware
The Sony Xperia S is the first Xperia Android smartphone to carry the Sony brand, and it is also the top model in the company's new NXT series of Android smartphones. Michael tests it out in this review, and finds both things he likes and dislikes about the phone.
Pros:
- Great camera with quick-launch mode
- attractive design
- nice software
Cons:
- Flimsy rear cover
- poor display viewing angles
- sharp edge around ear-speaker port
- touch buttons offer poor response

The Xperia S is well-equipped for entertainment, with an amazing screen, HDMI and good streaming capabilities. It looks good, but suffers a few knocks thanks to its bloated rear. Overall though, the Xperia S is nothing short of a revolution for Sony and one of the best Android devices on the market.
Pros:
- The phone is faster
- decent performance and battery life
Cons:
- Not Applicable

However while the specs are top draw on paper (NFC, dual-core 1.5Ghz CPU, 12MP camera), in use the screen and battery life could have been...
