Is this any good? Spec and software looks alittle too outdated for current competition. It seems to compete with GS2 which is at the end of its life cycle.
Well it does still have 12mp camera and bravia engine 720P screen which are both better than GS2. Software doesn't matter as this will get upgraded to ICS. Dual core 1.5ghz is more than enough power.

seems like a great phone
i was pretty interested in it because of the camera and read reviews looked @ the phone etc etc
and it seems like a great device; i've read people complaining about the specs without trying it but those just seem like the retards that want 8 Cores and 5gig ram etc etc
it seems great and looks like it performs wonderfully; i equate it with the htc one x (the dual core one)
It'll probably help but I don't know how indepth Sony's customizing is. As well they tend to lock down their devices to prevent modding and custom roms. Unless that's changed recently.
I believe it's only 499 without contract at the sony store

There is no Sony Store in Crystal Mall...
Some guy also called Park Royal and they said 499. I haven't been at a Sony Store to confirm yet so I cannot say for myself but 499 seems to be legit. Sony Xperia S will be $499.99 outright | MobileSyrup.com

Hey guys, im interested in this phone. but I have a few questions to people who are more knowledgeable with Rogers etc.
I am using Rogers, and DONT have a data plan. My current phone that i bought unlocked is HTC Desire Z (smart phone). I simply inserted my old phones sim card in to use it.
I dont need data plan, as i dont really use the internet much on the go. I simply upgraded to a smart phone for other uses. wifi, camera, games, texting etc etc.
If im not mistaken, this Xperia S uses a MICRO sim card. which means I wont be able to simply buy this phone and use it with my current sim? will i have to go through rogers to get a micro Sim card? (keep in mind i dont want to switch to a data plan.) If im not mistaken, they wont sell me a smart phone unless i have data right?
random note: im eligible to get a hardware upgrade. havent bought a phone from rogers in about 5 years. they said i can get a new phone for the same price as someone signing a new contract. (99$ for the Xperia S).
sorry for long post, hope someone here can point me in the right direction! thanks in advance!
