Anonymous, 21 Oct 2012my Neo V won't be updated. Please sony.. hope u reconsider ... moreActually you are seeing it wrong, they already pre-annouced this way back, then retracted due to the huge backlash, and then finally (right now, at this time) decided to go with the original plan.

This means you are the one who has to do the "reconsidering" the next time you buy a phone, I for sure know I will, given how not even buying the 2011 flagship was enough to secure proper support in 2012.

    AnonD-57006, 21 Oct 2012How bad sony is? Why does all of you here think that sony ... moreAs you may already have realized, this article is about Sony. I do have a Sony phone, so guess what? I talk about Sony!

    That does not mean my words are exclusive to Sony, but neither does it excuse the pulling of this antics either by Sony or otherwise.

        How bad sony is?
        Why does all of you here think that sony is bad even if they did update your phone ICS ?
        You're all being selfish . Samsung,LG,HTC didn't even update their 2011 lineups to ICS so why aren't anybody complaints to them huh? Your lucky that atleast sony gave you all an ics update and now that they outed w/c devices will get JB , again your angry because you're n0t in? Well, for U,tipo,SOLA,miro , just chill okay?! Youre just updated to ICS just last week so, will pls wait updates are n0t that easy to work through cause in a vast volume of handsets that your gonna be updating each one, well it takes time..

          navi, 20 Oct 2012wht bout xperia u?Xperia U has recently got ICS update almost a week ago so it would be very quick for another update to come in. Wait for the updates for Xperia J and Go. After that Xperia U would be started. Xperia U has much better specifications than J and Go.

                  all of u plz listen
                  the reason why they arent getting jellybean is that because of rom size and internal memory. xperia tipo runs ics better than arc s or neo v etc. xperia j has. I think 1 gb rom size 2gb internal and 1.5 gb phone memory. I arc s have only 450 mb rom. and 400 phone storage. thats why ics update was buggy on 2011 series.

                    Anonymous, 20 Oct 2012I think the only reason is about the internal memory that J... moreNice theory, too bad JB is already running on those phones by the hand of team FXP (so there goes your theory the phones can't take it due to reason "xyz").

                    Now if only Sony could get their act together and release (at least) a proper updated vanilla version of Android for all their phones, one which would have all the right drivers and full support for the phone's hardware (unlike those 3rd-party compiled versions where, at the very least, you have to loose HDMI support).

                        Anonymous, 20 Oct 2012Some ppl here ned to relax and get a life. Acro s and xperi... moreI am going to give you the benefit of the doubt (I think you may be dyslexic, how else to explain it), otherwise you should have already noticed everyone you refer to is actually talking about the 2011 flagship Arc S (not the 2012 Acro S).

                        But then again, the phones you veer to talk about may get a break right now with JB, but they won't with KLP (the next version of Android).
                        Like I already said, it's only a matter if you will suffer this drama right now or in a few months from now.

                        Some may make an appeal to chill (aka "bend over and take it"), others may find it insulting and want to do something about it.
                        That is life dude.

                          I can understand those who have purchased a phone in 2012 and they are unhappy because they do not get an update. But I do not think that will really Samsung, LG, HTC to update their phones from 2011?(SGS 2 and Note exception.) Sony handles their updates as good as other brands.

                            Xperia sola !!

                            It seems that Samsung will replace Sony in the future and that's what I plan to him

                              why not for xperia u?it has better/same hardware as of xperia j and xperia go.even the xperia go has quite less resolution and xperia j isnt even dual core............this is simply unfair.sony is becoming selfish like nokia.they are just trying to sell their latest phones.they should behave like htc which prvides updates even to its old phones ...bleep...... xperia u was released earlier this year...in may..then why??? why this unfair play?why sony why???xperia is better than xperia j in terms of hardware then why this injustice??

                                  Some ppl here ned to relax and get a life. Acro s and xperia s will not get JB? read the article,it clearly says they will get it. Same goes for SL ofcors,its an overclocked S. I think sony is updating all the newer devices except the lower range, its good but there are arguably a few missing here. Sola and U should be on the list maybe. Or sola only.
