Any idea about the specs? Xperia Go is running a 1Ghz dual core. And has a 5 MP camera. Acro S sprts a 12 MP camera and is HD. Any word about other specs?
Thanks,

that's processors is enough for everyone.
you need a phone can play ps2 or render 3d mark ??
I don't know why people always annoy about quadcore even they just use it for call, sms, music, web?
game ? how many time you can play a strong game on phone ? 3, 4 or 5 hours ? and what game dual core can't play on phone ?
I think Sony know what to do ....
Xperia acro s
12MP camera and much faster, i think you should get the acro s.
APGalaxy
Arco S is just too Awesome......!
and no more GLONASS support in xperia go anymore, so I think I stay with my active
Sprinter
Water and dust resistance
The Xperia acro S has only P55 and IP57 ratings for dust/water resistance.
However Go and Active have IP67. That's quite important.
What means IP67?
6=Dust tight. No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact.
7=Immersion up to 1 m. Ingress of water in harmful quantity shall not be possible when the enclosure is immersed in water under defined conditions of pressure and time (up to 1 m of submersion).
but IP 57
5=Dust protected Ingress of dust is not entirely prevented, but it must not enter in sufficient quantity to interfere with the satisfactory operation of the equipment; complete protection against contact.
So how come - if "Ingress of dust is not entirely prevented" how it's submergeble?
Dust can come thru the joints, but water not?
So I'm happy with my Active!

They are both IP67 certified. Or at least that's what GSMarena says.
The only thing that baffles me is the fact that they dont use Dragontail glass. Even though I always use screen protectors it's nice to know the glass wont break that easily...
Although the Active seems somewhat small for my big hands, i dont think i could live without the strap it has. It's just priceless.
I would not go for the Go though... the 512mb of RAM seem restricting somehow...
Only the xeperia go is IP67 certified but it is not only missing the Dragontail glass but also the GLONASS receiver. And still the same small resolution and only 512MB Ram. So this doesn't look like a successor to the active for me...
acro s looks much better to me, but I am afraid it is too big and I don't no if it resist 2h of biking through the rain (and if it will be available in Germany)
Sprinter
Sony Xperia Go is Sony Xperia Lotus (ST27i) so it will launch in August with a price of 270 EURO

I want to buy a new phone, I was thinking abt getn XS, but wen I saw XP, I was surprised by its look, its awesome design and looks like a polished product.
I want to know opinion of other XS, XP users......
Well in terms of power and storage the obvious answer is no.
Looks wise the P might just have the edge with the aluminum body. Not that much difference in size between the two either but I haven't played with one yet I have just seen a couple of comparison videos.
Cannot comment on the WhiteMagic screen either as I haven't seen a physical device yet. What I can say is the screen on the S is fantastic and makes you feel all warm inside when looking at it.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
In my opinion,
S is better hardware wise no.
Design , I personally prefer P. Mainly because of the aluminium body looks and feels more premium and no USB flap. I know many say that the flap isn't that fragile but I just feels so
If you prefer better hardware, go for S, else otherwise.

EDIT: Charger is the EP850
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Think I have under estimated the Xperia P somewhat.
I have been playing with the black version for around 3 hours now and its a little pocket rocket. The design and feel is very satisfying, feels premium. The screen is fantastic, very bright, crisp and clear. Had a test in the sun and set screen brightness to automatic (yes it has automatic or manual control, as well as a power saver option) all text and colours are still very easy to see. You now press the icons on the transparent bar for home, back and settings, back button does not suffer like the S, one tap and responds. I have removed the widgets on the home screens and set basic stuff up that I use and have no lag whilst switching screens, app tray opens almost instantly, apps open in very good time, installing apps seems faster than on my S. In the box is the EP850 fast charger.
This is just a very quick analysis so far and will add more as and when I find more interesting bits. Needless to say I am very tempted to sell my Xperia S and use the P as my daily driver.
EDIT: After using this device for over a day I can truly say it is outstanding. To the point that my Xperia S is being sold and this is now my main device
The Xperia P comes with more notification and ringtones so I have zipped them.

I think Xperia S is the better choice than xperia p
Devices:The One and only!!!
Xperia S
Xperia s
Xperia S would be a better phone.
depends what you looking for..
For me camera and big storage is first thing in my mind, loved satio 12mpx, and wanted android with 12mpx (arc previously)...
Also big screen is one of the required stuff...but i really want aluminium body...
So in the end i say for me that xperia s is better phone

if Sony don't show the global hayabusa before this launches I might just bite.
How can I visit those press releases at the costs of Sony? The Hawaii style was made for me
Phones looks great.
You have to work for a Russian tech website
you should add one "sticking with xperia s"
Any news about RELEASE DATES ?
It's a shame the Acro S runs on the S3, not on an S4.
@SonyXperiaRu: acro S launches with ICS, Q3 2012, Xperia go launches with GB, Q3 2012. Both have wet finger tracking tech
size and weight just like htc sensation
But durable and big battery. need know what is cpu. If s3, then i take xperia P. somting smoler and butafull.
If s4, then realy bee good battery life in perfomance and nice styl.
I wonder why the Go isn't launching with ICS?
Hmm anyways, they don't look bad, the Go resembles the Sola a bit. I guess this officially means that the light bar is gone, oh well, life goes on . It might be that the Xperia logo lights up, I can't tell by that video though...
I don't know what to think about the Acro S, they seem to have kept sort-of the S form, but it looks a bit block-like. It's nice they are going down the water-resistant path for both of them, that can be a handy feature.
I still think the S looks better, and the Acro appears to just be a water-resistant S4 (I would assume?) version. Now we just need leaks/hints for the 2013 phones I'm curious how they will look.
and to the OP: you forgot "Happy with S/U/P/Sola" as an option .
its an Qualcomm MSM8260 Snapdragon (S3 chipset)
its not much of an upgrade compared to XS.

hey, just wondering.
What if your XS got stuck in the middle of something.
Because the battery is embedded, how to hard reset it?
is it just push the power button or what?
I have a plan on buying this acro s, so you can give me a hand on this.

Just click on both the power button and the Volume UP button for 10 seconds.
It's like removing and reinserting the battery

lol i only needed to replace my XS once due to the yellow tint. I've been using the second XS for over a month now.
both 1st and 2nd XS i had no software issues. some are experiencing with auto restarts and stuff i had none. so my chances of that and battery issue isnt going to happen.
i got to be serious with you. best looking phone that attracts my eyes is still the ARC S. The XS does definitely looks better than GX and Arco. (just my own opinion) the transparent LED stripe really does add something special to the phone.
and tbh if youre going to wait for the acro then i rather you wait for the GX its probably going to be announced by the time you order your acro
thanks OS4.
Now I can live in peace.
Waiting for acro s and hayabusa.
Both are awesome.
@litoni : yeah, I had one arc s.
It's simply awesome.
But I think I want some upgrade.
imo, even acro s and hayabusa are going to be on the market at the same time, the prices must be much different one and the other.
if in case, hayabusa costs $700, and acro s costs $600.
better than nothing, I'll take acro s instead.
thanks btw for the long explanation man.
Interestingly enough, the acro S's model number is LT26w

My 2nd Xperia Go
I returned my first phone since the seller too thought it was a defect. But with the 2nd phone coming in like this, I think it's just the way it is. I purchase this 2nd one from a different seller in the US. Both was purchased on Amazon.
Its been a long time device,but your the first to notice it....ask some1 that has same device,maybe itll loosen things up if its really normal,
Sony Xperia P LT22i
I have the same issue on my Xperia U. There are light leaks from both side of the screen. I sent it to the service and they said it's normal. Actually they didn't say anything, they've just returned my phone. It is an unacceptable fault from company like Sony. I guess, We had to deal with that kind of problems when it's comes to choosing a low-end device. In that case, a nearly high-end device like you have. Because most of the phone manufactures don't care about build quality when it is comes to low-end devices.

Wow, so it's also affecting other Sony models. Sony needs to step it up. Because ever since they dropped Ericsson, their quality seems to be going down hill. Seems like they trying to rush with all these new phones coming out.
By Sony not giving a rats ass about quality, it's no wonder Samsung, LG, HTC and even Motorola has a better reputation than Sony. My next phone won't be a Sony that's for sure. Heck, I might as well get the Meizu instead.
My old school Sony Walkman didn't have these light leaks. The camera on that phone takes faster and better pictures than my X10 mini. Also, that phone has a built in "phone recorder".
Not sure why Sony stopped including the recorder.
Mine's fine. And I haven't been easy on this thing.

The Z4 Ultra will reportedly be adorned with a 5.9-inch Triluminos display. It will also carry the Snapdragon 805 chipset and 4GB of RAM , the camera will be 16MP with dual LED flash. It is expected to measure a significantly thin 5.7mm.
http://www.arabianbusiness.com/leaked-sony-xperia-z4-z4-ultra-specs-573033.html
i hope they don't make the screen smaller than 6.4
waiting for the fantastic z4 ultra
if the z4 ultra picture it this i will full in love with it
Quite confident that image is inauthentic. I don't think Sony will suddenly go from the biggest bezels in the industry (aside from iPhone and HTC) to having a higher screen to body ratio than any other phone in existence, particularly since they didn't even lessen the bezels on the behemoth Z Ultra.
I'm sorry but that looks fake as. Looks like some keen fan's concept sketch.
It was 100% fake
That was just a mockup by other ppl & it won't be 5.9" & not to be so thin.
I agree. And I don't think they reduce the number of icons on the homescreens from 6 to 4, that doesn't make sense. Complete fake.
Although fake it looks awesome, imagine the Z4 Ultra actually having bezels so thin.
Early next month we'll get the full information and specification for the Z4 & Z4 Ultra anyway.
Be patient guys. :laugh:
As much as I'd LOVE to see the Z4 Ultra look that awesome, I don't see it happening either. Plus, the rumors I've heard are that the screen is supposed to be 6.2" 2K display with a S810 SOC with 4gb of RAM. This is the first time I've heard anything about a 5.9" with a S805. I'll be VERY disappointed if those specs are true.

that looks freakin terrific and im sold for a 5.9in screen now
this is so fake
sony with thin bezels? I don't think so
if it was real it would be too small anyway. would feel like a downgrade to me
hahaha just we need to dream i will call sony to make my ultra 4 like that
Sony would never make the logo to be so small so that's definitely fake. According to various sources it all points to 6.4 inch instead of 5.9

Came across this today, interesting to say the least. Sony better not make the display smaller... I'd love a 6'5"/7" screen with way smaller bezels. I fear they're gonna go with a 6" model instead and make the bezels lame again.
