            Hello people. I would like to ask what type of sim card does it take? The standard miniSIM or the new smaller microSIM?

                        I have not seen any review about the touch reponse. I know it lacks Gryo and ambient light sensor. Is it a great miss ?? I am clueless on this two feature's miss. I know the functionality of these two. But now sure on how much it bothers.

                              Awesome Phone for the price point
                              I have been using this phone for about 2 weeks now. This phone is too good for the price.

                              Call Quality: After all you buy a phone for this main point and yes this phone does not disappoint. Reception is good and calls are very clear and even the other person can hear us clearly.

                              Display: Very vivid. Good viewing angles too. 35% brightness is more than enough for indoors. Colors are very natural. But outdoor viewing is bad, I would not say worst but bad. You need to increase the brightness manually to full as there is no sensor in this phone.

                              Battery: It lasts for one full day with normal to moderate usage which includes, 1.5hr of call, 45 min of gaming, 80% in wifi and remaining in 3G (basically 24hours connected to internet), email, messaging. Well if you cut the gaming part it will lasts for 2 days. The device idle time is too good. When left overnight only 4% is reduced in the morning when you wake up. This usage again is with Single SIM. I did use dual SIM but only for 3 days or so. Even in that case it would easily with stand one full day.

                              Performance: Butter smooth but with NOVA LAUNCHER and not with TouchWiz as it lags. People who complaint about the lag on this phone is mainly due to Touchwiz. Please install Nova Launcher on this phone the moment you buy it. Battery life gave an increase once I changed the launcher.

                              Games: Temple Run, Candy Crush games run smooth but games like Sub way surfer lags but not that much that you cant play. One good thing is that phone does not get heated up extremely when games played for 30 min. it gets warm.

                              Camera: Good in day light and bad in night and indoors. Flash is good. Cannot record videos at 720p.

                              Sound & Speaker: Well this one is a definite negative. Speaker is not that loud and even the audio output via the 3.5mm jack is not good.

                              This is one among the few phones which has Dual SIM Active mode. This does support 2 SIM at the same time. Ex: If you are on call with SIM1 and then someone tries to call you in SIM2, the call is forwarded to SIM1. I have tried this and it works perfectly. Only point is that the person would be hearing that the "Call is getting forwarded. Please wait". We need to enable that in the SIM Card manager settings.

                                    I like 'core' in every aspect than xperia m.. but core doesn't have OTG. so am bit confused here.. which one should i buy..

                                    POSITIVES IN XPERIA M
                                    1) OTG
                                    2) Scratch resistant glass
                                    3) Hd video recording
                                    4) Can play hd videos (720)

                                    Negatives in xperia m in comparison with core (which is major draw back for me)
                                    1) Lesser internal memory
                                    2) Lesser screen size

                                    if core has otg i wud've gone for it

                                      Anonymous, 12 Sep 2013nfc meansWhat is "NFC"?
                                      NFC means "Near Field Communication". With the help of NFC u can transfer files in a second. movies, album, heavy files with just One Touch. Xperia M have NFC :)
