Any universal micro USB connector dock should work. We just need to search for one that has adjustable micro USB, so that it fits our SP comfortably.
THis might probably work:

Hi Does anyone know if there is any desktop dock for SP?
Well the phone has been out for only 2 months and also considering all other sony phones (made within 2 years) have docks I would say just wait and see. The Sony Xperia SP also has micro usb to hdmi capabilities.

Here is a link on google shopping with some docking stations that may be usable

https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=xperia%20sp%20dock&rlz=1C1CHFX_enGB529GB529&um=1&hl=en&biw=1241&bih=640&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=iw&ei=u7LzUdTUEM66hAf6xoG4BA#q=xperia+sp+dock&rlz=1C1CHFX_enGB529GB529&hl=en&source=lnms&tbm=shop&sa=X&ei=ybLzUfvxG4mChQeu7oHoAQ&ved=0CAsQ_AUoAw&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.49784469%2Cd.ZG4%2Cpv.xjs.s.en_US.MpiVkF51mpA.O&fp=4b0597517e617418&biw=1241&bih=640

Hope it helps

I have bought this same dock for my SP, bought it from ebay for 10 dollars (free shipping), Overal quality is ok, dock is very light. Docking the phone is somewhat not that easy. My phone has a total body skin (skinomi). Because of the skin the phony is a little bit to thick for the dock. I removed the inner part of the dock for a better fit. But docking the phone can sometimes be a hassle the micro usb pin on the dock is a little bit wobbly.

For 10 dollar it is ok. :p

New guy here, just got my SP last week. I ordered one of those docks form Deal Extreme as well, will post some pics and review when it gets here.

I may try making my own as well, as I'd like to have a couple more (at work and night table).

Hi guys.
I'm from Poland and I want to look for a Dock for my SP or make it by myself.
But. I wonder how it really work. I have seen - dont know exactly that was on SP or other android device - that system can recognize if device is connected to charger or dock station. Is there any "special" signal to do it??

TBH, I don't see the value of having a docking station; after all, the microUSB is on top left side instead of on the bottom.

I myself use a mini tripod, connecting the USB using a standard MicroUSB cable.

1. You can put it on the shelf. You don't have your device to lay down always near your PC.
2. Since microUSB is on top left side I have large problem with this. When you are left handed than ok. But now I have my phone on right side of my laptop with mouse and cup of coffe. Perfect combination :)
3. Look pretty well.
4. You can easily use it as Photo Frame (looks awesome)
5. You can easily use it as music player (with one more small cable)
6. You can easily use it as beautiful watch
7. And once again. It looks awesome on the TV shelf, not another lay-down-anywhere-phone :)

rgullyt and

For me is having it upright instead of laying flat on the desk, must better to see and use. I use my SP to listen to music all day at work and a dock would be a much better solution for me. Also, you can use one on your night table as an alarm clock/nighttime charger. I ordered two but maybe should have gotten at least one more. May order another one after they arrive and I see how they work out.

Satisfied with the purchase of this dock:
Not a exceptionnal quality of plastic but works perfectly.
Low price, free skipping and delivered in 3 weeks.
That's the one I ordered from DX but after ordering they said that it was backordered, so I cancelled my order and picked one up on eBay. Haven't arrived yet but more than likely the same unit.

From my understanding there is a removable insert in them that you take out if you have a case on the phone, is this correct Steph?
