A frenzied Smartphone - unparalleled

I have only been 3 days, the Xperia S, Sony's first solo production. But still I can give review. Before, I had two years the "Sony Ericsson Xperia X10), the former flagship of SE, of that I translated comparisons.

Design & Construction: Truly a great appearance offers the Xperia S, nice flat and good shape, also the partially illuminated transparent strip is a real eye-catcher. If you could change the lighting color of the bar without interfering with the hardware, would have been very good. Maybe you come still behind. Unfortunately, I find it a pity that everything, absolutely everything is installed. No battery, no additional memory. But ok with 16GB or 32GB are actually eh enough. The display is based on photos and videos on the
MOBILE "BRAVIA ENGINE". An HDMI output I could not test.

Touchscreen: The touchscreen is really great and sensitive, Whether rain snow, cold or heat, wet or dry fingers, the phone responds to all commands and the still liquid.

Camera: 12Megapixel Exmor sensor, self already tested a very good resolution provides the smartphone definitely. The mobile phone to wake from the stand-by with the camera has managed to hold something good = Aim, button and you have a photo. To full-HD video recording, I can only say great, but the focus time is at about 1-3 seconds until the next image is sharp. Einzigestes shortcoming here.

Hardware: Dual Core 1.5Ghz, the hammer is although there are already better. Unlike the SE Xperia X10, I now have no more stoppages if the Phone accounts Updated (e-mail, Facebook and Twitter). Even when I start an app or even a game. The phone plays the music. The 1GB RAM are certainly enough ... and the micro-SIM card - I have the Xperia S ordered from my supplier. First I wanted to insert a normal SIM card. But then came the disappointment = it is not working. Luckily my contract provider has given me a "micro-SIM" sent along (late notice). For those without a contract, you should you set a Micro-Sim.

Memory: The memory can not be expanded, either remain 16 or 32 gigabytes, the standard of the mobile phone. However, no longer need them. No one hears all the music from eg 8GB. For this is good for the rest of the memory apps and photos / videos; because 12MP Full HD or take already safe enough memory to complete.

Software: The smartphone we delivered in Android 2.3.7, but is on the part of Sony to update to 4.0Versichert (even standing on my box). It has 2 ways to Apps, Games, Wallpapers, etc. to come. ::
Androids standard "Google Play" (formerly called "Market") or SONY's "PlayNow" Store.

Battery: A big issue in smartphone's, after my Samsung Omnia or the SE Xperia X10. Is this battery gold value. for comparison. Omnia (2008) = 10 hours, XperiaX (2010 = only 12 hours to update about 19 hours) and the Xperia S battery keeps it nearly 30 hours out. Included with: Facebook, Twitter and e-mail updates every hour, including music.

Conclusion: Sony's separation from Ericsson was great (despite million cost of Sony). Sony has perfectly combines just about all the features in this phone.
BRAVIA Engine (TV FULL HD)
X sound (Sound playback of Sony)
"Playstation Certified", the "Play Now" Store
Camera Exmor sensor from SONY.

This SONY is actually in direct competition occurred against the iPhone ...
The Xperia S is hardware-technically better than the iPhone 4S, with the ease of Android is the better choice .. SONY Android AHEAD ...
