    slb_forever, 26 May 2016wow! an happy sony owner! congrats No, it's true. Sony really got their game together in 2015. Except for the E series, all launched phones of 2015 have done well to give value for money. Now if they fix their camera issues they'll do well going forward. But the X series isn't that encouraging right now.

      you sounded so ignorant, there's siri, cortana and google now for everybody. There's icloud which is just cloud storage and there is cloud storage for android too users. Your list was unnecessarily that's bcos u just named features. There is SD card for E5 instead you listed 128gb on iphone as advantage. Just how old are U?

                      Are u comparing flagship device with entry-level device.

                      That would be great for sony btw. Keep comparing high end phones from Apple with entry-level phones of Sony. Keep showing us how great sony is!

                            Xperia E5 advantages:
                            - SD slot
                            - maybe better battery
                            - maybe better screen to body ratio
                            - FM Radio
                            - 1 MP more camera resolution (wow)

                              If possible I hope Sony will give all Xperia phones the Xperia Simple Home launcher, example: the Xperia'user can download the Xperia Simple Home launcher from google play store, but Must restrict other competitors from download it. The Xperia Simple Home launcher is very nice easy to use and very good for parents.

                                    And about Nokia yes they are coming back but they'll never be the same they are just lending their name to 3rd manufacturers as opposed to manufacturing it themselves so it'll be some phone with just the Nokia name by which you have to satisfy yourself
                                    If you want to see the phones which I have used till date you can check my about section and I am only 21 years old I started off with two basic Nokia phones 7110 and 5130 and then started roms with Symbian development on my 5233 in my 10th grade in 2010 after which I got my first smartphone in 2012 Sony Xperia S after which I have changed more than 16 phones in 3 years including HTC, LG, Samsung, Nokia, Blackberry etc etc but Sony has been my most problematic phones till date currently I own a galaxy s6 and iPhone 6s both are flawless both the ZL and S had hardware problems as confirmed by the company itself
