To the OP:


Don't listen to skmminstones! Stick with your S2! Trust me you're just a bit bored of your S2, that's all. Once you switch the phone for the crappy xperia S. Just after 2 weeks you'll regret that decision, trust me....

Or get something that is actually an upgrade, such as the S3 and One X (As someone previously stated).
Motorola XOOM running EOS Stable Jelly Bean with stock EOS kernel.
Samsung Galaxy S II running on NeatRom XXMS1 4.4 with PhilZ v4.53 kernel.

That's like suicide. You'll be crying down the line two weeks later.
A real upgrade is S3 or One X

DONATE TO ME
Xperia S is a worse phone overall. Even though it has better screen resolution (worse panel though) and a better camera that's about it.

Good thing is it shoots much better videos in lowlight and does nice photos.
I would say better than S2 by a small margin in that aspect.

Overall I thought it was a really great phone until I actually played with it for a while... It's true. It is a downgrade. I am really happy to have my S2 instead of SXS even though it doesn't have 12mpix and a 720p screen.
