Do it. You know that is why I always wished before that next Google phone goes to Sony.
I don't think you understand what pixel density means, because the Xperia S has. A higher pixel density screen over the Galaxy Nexus.
Re-read his post. He gets that the S has the higher pixel density, but is of the opinion that the lower res AMOLED is still better, which some would agree with.
My mistake, amoled is better in some aspects but I still prefer the higher pixel LCD of the Xperia.
everyone has their own taste... so buy the device u like and enjoy

But don't buy HTC One X
Hey Doom, your "Thanks" bar is about to explode. I may just hang some plastic bag under..

I never saw any of the three devices with my hands, but, from videos and photos, Xperia S appears to have the best screen in my opinion.
What happens when the thanks bar reach it's end? The user win a super god permission? LOL
Not that I have Yellow tint issue on my Xperia S, but from day one I was leaning more towards Xperia P and screen is suppose to be better even tho intensity is less but with that white *** thing.
Just stopped by Sony store and they had X10 and compared with Xperia S and I think 4" is good for me and what I do.
When the 'Thanks' bar fills, it will start leaking and XDA system will go down and of course end of the world..see its 2012 and its all happening
ICS should solve many issues, if it doesn't then Jelly beans and if not, then next one.
Google Sony Xperia phone FTW...

Xperia P have the WhiteMagic, but a lower resolution. I don't use much the phone on light, so Xperia S good for me.
And Xperia Nexus sounds REALLY sexy LOL
But don't buy HTC One X

The battery life on the One X sucks... Really disappointed... It also heats up a LOT!
Don't depend on videos... Test out the devices in hand... I compared the displays of Arc, One X, SGS2, Xperia S... The Xperia S indeed has the best display...
Apparently when the thanks meter fills up u get some goodies from XDA

Well.. The only thing i am waiting for is Wi-Fi direct..
I hope this is not a sloppy update like on HTC Sensation XE.. My friend just updated his phone few days ago.
Probably it is smooth.. But the UI is ruining the ICS. It's more like gingerbread on ICS skin or something..
As smooth as it goes.. The stock gingerbread in Xperia S is already good.. (Not perfect..)
Let's hope that this update wouldn't be a ridiculous one..
Would love the browser or chrome in my Xperia S tough..

Along all you guys have mentioned, I am waiting for this feature:
I know we have voice input now, but does not work the way as on ICS.

It's really crappy for non-english languages though.

Hmm, at the moment on 2.3.7 it recognizes my polish pretty well, so I was hoping it could be even better with ICS. You know how to cheer people up, don't you.

no, this is not a appropriate place to do that. Click on my name and send a message. That is the way to do it...
C'mon now, do you think we are all in a good health condition after Yellow Tint and no ICS in April? I may not last that long so you better start now!
Oh, 9 more days to count and then countdown the rest of Q2. At least they didn't say "during the half of 2012".

29Apparently, you do not want this thread to remain open.
And I do not want to hear anyone saying I am unfair because even though yesterday I posted this:
I let the thread grow 10 pages of chat-like posts repeating over and over the exact same speculations and decided I would let you guys kill some time until the update.
(I've been an X10 user dying to get Gingerbread and then an Arc S user waiting for an ICS update. I know how torturing the waiting can be and how it can get to anyone's nerves. Whether we admit it or not, our mobile phones become a big part of our lives, that is why most of us are here anyway.)
But opening this thread today and seeing personal attacks between members is not something I can let slip. You proved that you cannot keep a low-key discussion and I am not willing to keep cleaning up after you.
Thread closed.23A comprehensive FAQ for a concerned ICS zealot
The text in italics is unconfirmed or doubted information
Q: When is ICS being released?
A: Q2 2012. That is the second three months, i.e. April, May and June.
Q: Why is it taking so long?
A: Because the Xperia S was released in the process of the Sony/Ericsson merger. They are still working on integration between the teams and much more that needs to be done.
Q: Any chance we get it earlier?
A: Yes, starting from this week (05/21/12) to early June.
Q: When does <country> get it?
A: The rollout usually starts in Nordic countries (Sweden, homeland of Ericsson) and then continues when local carrier testing is passed. However once it's out in Sweden, someone will surely upload a flashable FTF for us all to enjoy
Q: Any chance we see a leaked build?
A: Not from me. If anyone else wants to leak it, you're welcome.
Q: What's the version?
A: Android 4.0.4 with kernel 3.0.8. Sony build is 6.1.A.0.3xx or 4xx.
Q: Will it have face unlock?
A: Yes.
Q: Will it have <any other feature here>?
A: The feature set is close to ICS for 2011 devices, but there will be some goodies.
Q: Is battery life any good?
A: Really good, better than .73.
Q: Do we have any factual proof?
A: See the proof list below.

PM me if I missed anything (or just ask in the thread again) and please, don't quote this post ever.13it seem to me that only names have changed from sony ericsson to sony but all old lazy empty head basters stay where as it was before where are those blady reduction jobs they taking ****ing wages and keep chairs warm getting fat.
sorry for wording
With that efficiency they can only dream about increase profit and market share
btw end of the Q2 is end of june ? so eventually we got only two weeks delay so is not too bad
They want and are able to increase profits and market share. Things are changing for Sony and inside Sony. They're not lazy, they are busy upgrading your grandma's Xperia pro. Not a single other manufacturer delivered updates for every previous generation device, even budget dumbphones. Sony did, or at least they are working to do it. Sony is the biggest AOSP contributor after Google itself. Sony pushes the new Xperia lineup aggressively and I've already seen a whole bunch of people switch to the S and the P, some of them ditching their iPhones. Sony hires highly qualified engineers and software developers, not some 'old lazy empty head basters'. I'm not being a fanboy here, the only company I'm a fanboy of is Studio Ghibli. I'm just trying to make you all understand the good things. The Galaxy S is not getting ICS. The Xperia active is. Because they ducking care for you. Because the universe doesn't end with the Xperia S. Because there are more people with 2011 Xperia devices who want to get ICS. Because there are people with 2011 Samsung devices that never will. Because you, yes you, are f-wording the people who care for you.
If anyone from Sony is reading it: sadly, the only thing that's expressed publicly about you is whine and insults. I feel sorry for this and for the state of XDA in general. We don't post love letters here, but we are thankful for all the work you've done. We care about you and we understand you don't owe us anything. Take your time, make it perfect and watch the whine turn into love.
