It does not mention gyroscope. Would anyone please confirm this phone has a gyroscope or not? Thanks!

There was a thread about this and people got confused about it. I think its bc it comes with a pre-installed screen protector, thats why people are feeling the plastic.

Pocketnow done a review and they stuffed up. They mentioned it has a cheap plastic screen.
It has been confirmed many times now that it's a glass screen with a shatter proof layer similar to the X10. The instruction manual also makes mention of what to do if the screen does shatter.
How the hell could pocket not know the difference b/w a plastic screen and glass? Plastic screens flex if you press down hard on them, glass doesn't.

Your phone screen is made from glass. Do not touch the screen if the glass is cracked or shattered. Avoid trying to repair a damaged screen yourself. Glass screens are sensitive to drops and mechanical shocks. Cases of negligent care are not covered by the Sony Ericsson warranty service.
