I bought this phone a couple of days earlier..
And started downloading few apps everything worked fine till 2 days..
later after i downloaded one HD game app (Blood & Glory)
which the graphics work was jaw-dropping.
but today when i opened that game to play eagerly...
It was stuck and i dont know what exactly the problem is... and moreover there is only one physical button Sleep/Wake-up button which was not at all working.
The screen was stuck and stayed till 6 hours in the mean time i tried lot of things to restart the phone but i failed miserably. it went off once the battery was drain completely
Now once i charged it everything was fine and good.
Guys what to say now...? :-(
Please dont buy this phone... im crying now and dont want my friends the same situation...
Thanks for Gsmarena for sharing my thoughts here...

Just bought this device for my elder sister. She loved it and to tell you the truth even I loved it for the 2 odd days during which I had it.
UI is snappy, never lagging even for a micro-second. Controls are all fine and social network integration is superb. The screen is awesome and the moment you turn it on, it captivates you. It may not be an IPS but considering the fact that its LED backlit LCD the colors are pretty sharp and it certainly doesn't lacks in the brightness department.
Almost all the apps in the android market should have no problems running on this phone and the ones I tested ran pretty smooth, thanks to the increased RAM and dual core processor.
The camera on this thing is also pretty neat and the photos are excellent. Videos are also a treat to shoot/watch on this device with native 720p resolution support.
The only thing I didn't like about the device is the fact that the body feels a little toy like as its made of plastic and the battery life is average. But this could change with the Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade.

The battery life isn't as bad as you think guys. Most of android mobiles users recharge their mobiles everyday. My sxs can make it through the day without problems. The standby mode saves the battery. And by the way my mobile is updated to the last firmware update .73 and it helped to reduce the battery energy drain.

IPS can't always be a guarantee of good display.

Poor phone. Old 45nm processor, LCD (not even IPS-LCD) display, nosiy camera (more noise than Satio before 3 eyes), darker photos than Arc (wich has overbright), and unfucntional launcher. WTF is that?!
Bad display,bad camera,poor UI with icons stolen frm Meizu and more and more...
Sony,u can do more..

Try reducing the brightness and use a static wallpaper instead of the live ones.
Before the .73 update things were so bad. but now its reasponible for a smart phone with 4.3" screen.
