      where can we see true correct specs, i have read several and they all differ, i would have thought the sony website itself would be correct which i'm sure i read supports memory card and says doesnt have sms messaging ??

        I agree with "sony staff", compared to SAMOLED, its better compare all bravia engine equipped handsets with samoled. colors are better. and that's based on my experience.

I've got Xperia Arc and one of our IT got the Galaxy S2 and when we compare the color, Xperia Arc is far better and my friend was amazed and agreed that Xperia Arc color rendering is better.

                If you just look at the screen from Sony Arc, it looks 100 times better than any screen in the world with real collors and so on if men compare with cartoony looking Amoled screens.

                The Bravia or the X-real engine is te best tech, just look at the Sony's TV just beat every Samsung TV in picture quality.

                Only one problem, Sont TV are expensive compare with other brands but you will get best of the rest.

                  I think we never find out.

                  The battery on the most Sony device has the best performance than any other phone on the market, thats a fact.

                  I think the fixed battery is the best option, for example i never chance the battery and i think it can speak for the rest bunch of people.

I don't think you are the right person to be speaking this way even if you're a legit employee. I've been a consumer of Sony since the 80s and have owned 5 different models of Sonyericsson/Ericsson mobile phones. if you are in the executive level, then let me suggest some positive directions for some improvements:

                            1. Please do increase the battery stamina. We, avid users of your current and upcoming models have half the longevity of usage per charge.
                            2. Please do stop trying to emulate Apple's direction of fixed battery. We like to sometimes just change to fresh ones instead of plugging and waiting for hours in one place.
                            3. We would not appreciate much if you don't provide expandable memory slots. We were happy you have finally eliminated your original exclusive memory cards and embraced the micro SD, but please give us the slots to put in affordable micro SDs for large files.

                            Anyone else have suggestions? Let's hear them and post it on to "Sony Staff". He/she sounds like he/she can do something in Sony, "Babby". He/she did give us a Sony "employee" number, after all.

                                    The Sony Xperia S has nice features. It should have better battery stamina. Have a look at the usage and standby times. It's half of what is normally for a smart phone.

It's Super AMOLED Plus - it's not a brand; it's a technology and feature among mobile gadgets. It's different from a backlit LCD where ambient light is always on which is needed to see the display. Super AMOLED screens work with self-illuminating pixels, and no ambient lighting needed. Super AMOLED screens are therefore more efficient in power consumption where pixels are needed only. Super AMOLEDs have true black rendering, where the backlit LCD has dark gray. The biggest HD Super AMOLED screen is with the Samsung Galaxy Note at 5.3" with a resolution of 800 by 1280 pixels. This is just to set things straight.
