Music Unlimited amazing once you subscribe and come to grips with paying $10 per month. Haven't bought any music since August 2012.Smaller than I envisioned, but it is not as much of a pain in your pocket as many others.Upgraded to Android 4.0 in a timely manner.Noticed a bit of a lag after the upgrade, but the added benefits outweigh any other concerns, especially the ability to configure proxy settings for wifi based corporate/university environments, and also of controlling the amount of data used.Use on At&t with perfect functionality.The 3D camera is probably the most awesome feature that comes with it, although it is getting to be more common now.The design utilized by Sony has got people constantly noticing my phone. It's nice to be noticed in the sea of Iphones which choke my university.The timescape feature is kinda cool, sometimes it has issues loading, especially from facebook, but twitter is much more my style anyways, so that's not a big deal. I almost removed all the facebook stuff a while ago, but decided against it for now.I wish the timescape feature had instagram... if it had Instagram I would be a massive fan.I use it for everything from Music Unlimited, to intense emailing (4 accounts), calendar synchronization, Any.do for tasks, camera, social media, keeping up with Arsenal and Carolina Hurricanes, weather, finances, skydrive, OneNote, oh yeah.. it has a phone in it too, haha. It handles each of these tasks quite well. When I'm really pushing multi-tasking I do have to be careful not to overload it. I definitely recommend finding threads online which give tips on freeing up some RAM.one last thing that does catch people's eye, is the LED bar at the bottom. I got an app that will light it up when I get notifications, which I have customized for my preferences, but when that starts going off, my friends will be like.. uh dude, you're phone is pretty awesome. I agree.. it is :) Def going to be trading up by next summer, but I do want to shout out to Sony on the design especially. It is getting noticed, keep it up!

I ordered my new Sony Xperia U (ST25i) model on December 31 2012, and received it on January 2,2013, I am very impressed with the Seller and with the fast shipping! I highly recommend this seller because I have trust in him or her and If i'm going to buy another product I definitely will buy from this seller again. The phone I ordered came brand new, unopened, factory sealed, i'm very satisfied and happy with the product. The Sony phone works very good I had it for almost a week now and I use it for hours and hours every day I have no complaints at all with this Sony phone. I chose Sony because my family and I have a lot of Sony products for generations and we trust the Sony brand for their excellent product quality and design so thats why I got the Sony Xperia U phone. The phone has everything I wanted: has a built in GPS reciver, and on a good day it will lock to the satellites within one minute or so (make sure you enable it under settings for it to work. No internet needed), has a very good camera no complaints it takes very good pictures if you mess around with the exposure levels and set it to max 5MP pictures. At night will have some noise but its not that bad, The sound is very good also, it's loud and clear, the phone's microphone is also very clear i tried it with a sound recorder set on high quality and did a very good job, the small down side to the phone is it has no SD Card slot on it and only has built in Flash memory 8Gb and for the user partion it has only 4GB usable which is not bad for me since I have some songs, pictures and other useful media for me it does me good and have plenty of space, the battery life should last you up-to a day if your surfing the web listing to music and looking at some pictures and video with wifi on only but it may vary. Overall the battery life is pretty good I rate the battery life 4 out of 5 stars. Overall I rate this phone 5 out of 5 stars and iam very very happy with the phone and I would recommend it to any one for a good price, excellent brand and for a very good quality phone.

ok, so its been 5 months, im the kind that researches hours and or days/weeks for the best features and lowest cost on an item, I was on a low budget and wanted my first smart phone, using a touch screen for me took some practice, I have have big man hands and fingers, but the predictive text helps and now have no problems if I misspell the right word comes up anyway. , like that i can plug into computer for media and updating, no need to use your cell service downloading, just plug to computer and internet, much faster updating right after I bought and upgraded to ice cream sandwich 4.0.4! no memory card slot, but had plenty space, i have loaded 150 songs and 130 music videos! still had a gig and a half left. so the stupid obsession with huge amounts of space is not needed unless you keep movies or long clips of media on phone. one thing I disabled Bluetooth and WiFi immediately, and lowered brightness which is still perfect even in outdoors! , and battery life increased. I love that power button is on side, I wish screen was a little bigger like the xperia p and speaker is in back, best position for speaker is on side like the xperia p. If I could afford the upgrade to xperia p, I would get it, but Im broke.Speed is great, I have experienced no video lag whatsoever, everything has been smooth. I must say out of everything, I was shocked when watching the music videos, the resolution and clarity/brightness was amazing!, Im still in awe when watching, my friend has a phone that costs almost 3 times as much and looks no where near as good in video quality, it really freaked me out, its the best picture Ive ever seen seen! this is not a cheap feeling phone!, it has a good weight and good thickness and feel. This is the perfect featured phone for me, best price, a phone like this should cost more, but I'm glad it doesn't, it came with screen protector and charger adapter to plug in wall or plug to computer usb.

Before this phone I had the Xperia Ray which I loved, but I wanted to try this one so I bought it and I'm really happy with it. The design is great and it's really fast and responsive (It has a dual core processor). I'm a heavy user and so far the only thing that I wish it would be better on this phone is the quality on the videos. It's not bad but they look really pixelated I don't know why but I have a dedicated point and shoot camera which takes great videos and photos so It's not a big deal for me. If you use a lot of space for music and movies you should buy another phone with an SD card slot because this has only 8 gigs (Xperia Ray is in the same price range and has SD card). 4 gigs for the phone and apps and 4gigs for your music, photos, etc. I don't use a lot of space that's why I decided to buy it and so far it's great! Really fast and responsive and once it gets Ice Cream Sandwich it will be better. If you're looking for a budget phone this is THE BEST you will find.BUY IF:-You want to try a great android phone.-You want the best unlocked smartphone for under 300.-You don't need more than 4 gig of space for music and photos.-You want a fast and reliable phone-You want a great phone with front facing and rear camera.DO NOT BUY IF:-You want more than 4 gig of space for music and photos.-You care a lot about high quality videos.PROS:-Great design-Good size-Screen is crisp and bright-Dual core processor-really fast and responsive-Sony keyboard is one of the best I've used. It has swype function.-2 cameras: Front and back-LED flash-GPS-Battery life is great.CONS:-only 8 gigs of space-Low quality videos-Speaker doesn't work with google hangouts I don't know why.EDIT Jul.3.12 :1. I think I was a little harsh as far as video quality goes. It's not that "low quality". It's standard but some pixelation and artefacts make it look bad. Search in youtube for "xperia u video sample" and you'll see it in action. 2. I have had a problem with Google+ Hangouts where the loud speaker is really, really low. The loudspeaker works great for everything other than Google+ Hangouts so if you want this phone for hangouts I don't recommend it unless the 2 I got where defective. I guess you could buy it and if it doesn't work you can return it.

What a great phone, I was looking for something new, modern, fun, elegant, and sophistic.This is the phone, its actually and medium end device by the new generation of Sony smartphones, but this is one is what great for anyone looking for something catchy, durable and well made. Sony created a phone no so expensive like the others brothers from same family, this one has what you need on any smartphone, It will keep updated and you will be able to do all you need on today world.1- Is fast and works smooth on any application2- Ready to be updated to new android is fantastic, no bugs no problems at all.3- Has an interesting durable, fancy and resistant material on case, looks good, feels good.4- The screen has everything you need, bright, deep contrast, great sutured colors, HD. Not really great for finger prints marks but is very resistant for scratch... If you buy some screen protector you dont have to worry for dust or finger prints.5- Yeap I know just 8 gb internal memory, but thats enough for apps music, HD Photos and more, not a bad thing.6- The camera works great and does the job not really fancy but what you need for you phone at any good moment.7- Very sensitive at touch works fast.8- Very personalized, the light on the bottom and the changeable cap is very cool.UPDATE ( August 22, 20 days of use)The phone is amazing, after all this time, I have no complains about it. No bugs, No problems.I want to add something about the battery, this phone has a battery Standard battery, Li-Ion of 1320 mAh (not a big issue), don't know why they didn't put something better, but is ok, if you install some apps like: Defender Juice and specially Easy Battery Saver, any android phone will last longer, like twice the time. This one last about One day or two days; I use Skype, whats-app, badoo, news apps, weather widgets and more, so all together are battery drainers.Still happy!I recommend it for today's price and quality, and of course functionality.Final update September 19! No complains works amazing!

I have used this phone for about 3 months and it is a good device that is upgradeable to Android version 4.0.4. I started out with version 2.3 and upgraded a couple of weeks ago. Since then the phone seems to have a longer battery life and is even better (faster & more responsive and reliable). This is the second Android-based phone I have purchased this year and this one was a better choice.Like:- Solid, reliable and fast performance- Responsive touch user interface with Sony UI features and support for Android ICS (4.04)- Good phone reception and wifi connectivity works well for downloads and web browsingDislike:- GPS is not the best as I use Nike+ and it has trouble picking up a signal (indoors or out)- Camera is not the best for pictures using the digital zoom and pictures can come out grainy looking, otherwise pics look good using flash- Requires Windows based software to use certain application features and for updating the phone software- No SD card slot for external memory expansion (I don't expect to load lots of apps, music or videos on the phone though).Recommendation:A pretty good option for moderate smartphone use and fits with budget conscious consumers who would like a decent Android phone experience. I will consider a Sony phone in the future as the company is a reputable manufacturer that provides good support for Android upgrades. I would like to see if there will be an upgrade path to Jelly Bean for this device.

I am a college student, got this phone when it was on sale. I never really write reviews besides for my professors, so olease bare with mePros:Light weight, ThinI also like the light on the botton, and I like that I can change the colorThe camera takes a very clear picture, the detailed specs should be under the product page.The camera also has a stabilization fuction so the pictures are never blurryThe set up of the phone is very simpleThe camera/video light helps with darker photo taking/filmingThe camera also have different features such as the fish eye panel, which I thought was coolCons:The camera quick key is kind of hard to control because it needs to be press a little bit harder til you hear a little click for the phone to registerThe video shotting is kind of blurryWhen talking on the phone, the phone still go into the black screen and hang up after a while.While talking on the phone, the phone press fuction is not turned off ( maybe I just don't know how to do it), because of that I always accidentally press the speaker or mute button.I am a RPG gamer, so I play games on my phone, but sometimes it freezes or crashes. But it could also be that the games are in testing stage, so it is just not stable with Android phones.I hope this review can help anyone who is looking for a phone

Unlocked phones are the best! So far the screen hasn't had any scratches since I took off the screen guard I had on it and it's been about 3 months since I did that. It does good for what it does. Although it does have it's down fall. Has a good camera for recording and taking pictures if it's not blurry (caused by the lighting of a room). I love the xloud feature, because it's loud when it's enable - especially for the alarm. There's a lot of mini features that they have that makes it very sutomiziable which I like.When you change orientation for the screen it takes it a few seconds to swtich. The glow at the bottom is cool at sometimes and sometimes it's just annoying - I wish I could turn it off. (But it looks cool). Sometimes it freezes on me and I have to remove the battery in the back - which is very easy to do. Battery life isn't as good if your a heavy internet or gaming user. However it doesn't take long to charge the battery. Less than an hour and your battery will be full. Another way to solve your over use of battery power is to use the energy save mode they offer. Very efficent, why not have it on all the time?

This phone doesn't have all of the power of newer smartphones, but it also doesn't have that price.It's a very stylish phone and is very snappy (it never lags on loading any programs or anything).The only weird thing is that I bought this phone after buying a Nexus 7 and the small differences between Jellybean and Gingerbread add up.Pros:-Snappy-Stylish-CheapCons:-Gingerbread-Battery life (only lasts a day if I use it for anything other than standby)A lot of smartphones don't really have much of a battery life so I wouldn't worry about it.As a sidenote, I bought this to use on T-Mobile. I don't live in an area with 4g, however even though it doesn't have the 1700 band I still get 3g outside of my house and otherwise I usually get Edge, which to me is still good enough.I tested using gps and data to setup directions to somewhere and it was generally helpful. Though it seems data is used in conjunction with gps which can be problematic on a road trip in areas without coverage.

I bought it for my wife, so that she can make the transition from a Blackberry 9780.It came in a box directly from sony, it has an interchangeable tip so you can change it between a wihite or yellow tip.The sysop is ice cream sandwich but using the Sony PC Companion you can upgrade it to Jelly Bean in an hour or so.Very good camera you can even yake panoramic photos, Skype works perfectly, with this phone you can open a Box account and have it upgrade to a 50Gb for life.It's a little thinner and lighter than my Iphone 4s, if i didn't had the Iphone i would by one for me.Its perfect for people who doesnt like big phones, i does almost same things that a S2, S3 or a I4s do.The downside, if you have the geolocation enabled the battery lasts about 4 hrs, but with mi Iphone 4s its almos the same.Good buy

When I first got this phone I was excited. Screen looks amazing. Easy to switch languages it seemed at first. But the longer I had it, the more it seemed hard to work with - texting is horrid on these phones. I have a touch and sending messages is easy - these phones are awful. Does not get a good signal for phone or internet. Have to randomly turn off then on to get it to work at times. As with many phones now it is a pain to get it to charge. Have to wiggle the plug and hope it charges properly. When I first got mine and I got my mom another Sony phone - I was very impressed. Like I said screen is beautiful - great colors, seemed to work well - but the longer we have had them the more I wish I had just bought a Google Nexus. Overall just not impressed and wish I could just get my money back.

This is a great android phone.I use the phone for 2 month now. With 4.0.1 It is now actually more than I need. I had to give this only 4 Stars though, because I had to call the service once to recover it from a fatal breakdown directly after I turned it on for the first time! After that is always did a good job and I only have positive things to report. Actually even the support was nice and helpful.The thing that really impressed me is the very good sound of this phone. It actually ended up replacing my iPod as the sound is the sound seems just better to me and it is comfortable to have one device less with you.I also like the display that was a big step forward after my htc aria. The comparison to the iPhone ends as usual. If you don't want to have the phone that everyone has, you think the iPhone is to expensive, and you like to actually put hand on the software of your electronics yourself, this is the better phone. You also save money, by the way and get an a bit more compact device.

The phone itself is beautiful, the Xperia software with android which is upgradable to 4.0 is really slick and visually pleasing. Built in dual core processor at 1GHZ makes navigating quite pleasing adding on to the device's aesthetics.HOWEVER.-This device does not operate on T-Mobile USA's 3G networks. It will only pick up T-Mobile's EDGE networks which is much much slower. (and yes, i did make sure the APN settings were correct)-This device DOES NOT HAVE A MEMORY CARD SLOT... Seriously... its 2012-2013... why are mobile devices classed as smartphones assembled without memory card slots.I wanted to love it... i really did... but these two issues are fairly large and glaring ones that keep me personally from loving this device.

Alright - the phone's specifications are good for a med-priced smartphone, the camera is powerful and unlike some other manufacturers, the phone is plug n'play, making file transfers quick and easy. Screen resolution is sweet.And that was my whole 1 hour experience with the phone.You see, after an hour, the phone gave me an alert that the battery had to charge. I put it to charge. After 4 hours the phone did not charge. It was dead. Went on Sony's website and tried to see if anyone else had similar problems (apparently I was not alone). The phonerefused to charge and refused to switch on. Sad really but I think Sony made a dud here. (I've had nine phones and ALL have been Sony's - they usually take ALOT of pounding and torture before failing).BTW - sent it back to Amazon and got a refund, no questions asked. Really, really good customer service, especially considering I returned the phone not from the States but from the Caribbean. On Amazon's part - really impressive (hence a star).I'll try another Sony phone though, the brand has been good in the past to me and one bad egg isn't enough to make me write them off completly. Another bad phone well....

I bought this phone just a few days back. I like the look and design of the phone at this price point.However I got an error message "Emergency calls only" on the phone even when the network tower symbol is available on the screen.When i tried place a call it simply got disconnected without any response. I was able to make calls only after rebooting. I have noticed this issue a couple of times. The battery back-up is not good on this phone. I have made a few changes to overcome these deficiencies and continue to test this for couple of weeks because everything else is quite impressive about this set considering the specs and price.

I got this phone for $160 from Amazon lightning deal and I am very happy with this purchase.Pros,Size: phone is small so it is very convenient to carry aroundScreen: screen is visible outside under sunlight. Touchscreen is very responsive.System upgradable: overall it is a good experience. It took me about 20 mins to upgrade. Although I did notice some 1-2secs lags after upgrading, that is totally acceptable for me.Battery life: for moderate-heavy use (call, text, web browsing and app downloading), my phone lasts me a day and a half, which is great. Note you can also buy a replace battery from eBay for around 10 dollars.Cons,The bottom LED light: it's a battery drainer although I like the idea. I have no idea how to turn it completely off.Storage: only 4GB available.Camera: speed is way too slow! It took like 3sec to turn on camera and 5sec to take a picture. I will never take pictures using this phone. Also I have no idea how the dedicated camera bottom worksOverall this is a great basic smartphone

Hi Guys,No problem from the seller or the product, but Sony after-sells service STINKS...big time. 3 months after they were supposed to release ICS, never received it. So contacted Sony customer service in good faith and of course got their standard reply to be 'a little patient' !! Another 3 months later, still no update. NEVER NEVER NEVER going to buy another Sony product ever. This is the way they treat their customers after they are done with the sales. I'd rather buy a cheap chinese phone and actually get the update as promised!

Simply and fast, this product is a good choice for young people. It is not the best for games yet is a great choice for common tasks as web browsing, email, social networking and playing music. The 5MP camera feature pretty decent photos in the outdoors. For low light conditions that's another history. The battery wont last a day if you use the phone to much. At first it presented lagging when I updated to ICS, in case this happens reinstall the update

I've had the phone a couple weeks now, long enough to find the flaws and find what I love about this phone. 1st let me say that the phones style and accessibility are great. The performance not so much. The phone struggles with multiple programs, lags and also hangs up constantly on people because the sensor doesn't recognize your face hitting the screen timely enough causing you to hang up on your call. The processor is inadequate for all of the functions you will want to do and this will easily irritate you if you like to listen to music, search for something online and try to do multiple tasks. Now the good, The overall concept is refreshing and very stylish, I love everything about this phone accept for the speed. I will be upgrading to the Experia S most definitely and wish I would a bought the S instead of the U. This phone is PERFECT for light users but for the heavy phone user stay away.

I bought this phone as a birthday gift for my little sister but I didn't like at all!!The font size is too small .. I barely see it and there is no option for larger font sizes!The system and messaging font is small. The camera doesn't look like a 5MP as we used to see in previous sony products!I'm returning this product and I don't recommend it for anyone! I'm buying Xperia P as exchange ... once I receive it, I'll post a review on it!It's simple for little ones and cheap but it is going to hurt their eyes because of the very small font size!

Hi,I purchased this phone as it was Unlocked. So that I could use it in India. Now, When I started using it in India, I came to know that it is not unlocked. So I am very much disappointed. Since I returned from US, the warranty will also be invalid. So I will not be able to contact any sony service center. But I had to spend more money to unlock the phone.Why is it mentioned in the product description as "Unlocked" when the phone is still locked. I need the unlock code for this mobile.

Seemed like a decent phone. But I had to return it. The reason we bought this unlocked phone was to avoid paying for a data plan from AT&T. But it turns out that is not feasible. As long as you have a smart phone, they charge you for data plan. I was hoping to use the other features like WiFi, other Android applications, etc on this phone. But if I have to still pay $$ to AT&T for data plan, the purpose of buying an unlocked phone is defeated. Hence the phone was returned.

....being the camera the only reason why I don't rate it 5 stars-- 'couse I really LOVE this pretty smart phone very very much. Design, quality, appearance, over all performance, weight, etc, etc: everything is perfect except only for the camera performance on little light surrounding conditions--say any picture taken anytime sun is gone will be a poor quality-full of grains kind of-picture; but, but--on the other end at day time, when having normal sunlight brightness pictures taken will be-I could say it that way-crystal clear!..lot of compliments!--everyone likes this phone!!!
