      i can tell you that this xperia sl is excellent phone. worth money for value for sure. only problem is battery life. 1750mah is not enough for 4,3 inch screen. also 1080p video is a little bit laggy but i's decent. everything else runs perfect :)

        @MULWA MC- these functions are software dependant... and have you tried recording video with jelly bean os?? what are the number of frames it is recording??

        @VEDA- read the old comments buddy

        @TAREK SY- Depends on type of usage, it is the first time im seing a complaint of this kind for SL. Check your display settings or get your battery checked at the service centre and also the charger. Hang problem never occured ever in my device since 5-6 months and i use dozens of apps all together, dont know why your's is hanging. And while for samsung?? dont take that name, it stinks... already suffered a lot due to samsung's 3rd class services. :)

                    @RAHUL- Nice to know that, I reuqest to to check your network mode, select GSM only and then surely this problem will be cured, because it will not search for 3g network which may be un-available in some areas due to provider, not your device's fault, It will savesome amount of battery and also the network will be stable... give it a try...!!

                    @SUMIT- Same here, I'm also not planning to upgrade to JB

                    @LT26II-SILVER- And please also tell that what were the number of frames you were getting exactly.
                    Try avoiding background applications like antivirus and also Battery savers and social apps, You can do the same task manually, also keep a track of your RAM status wether what is actually happening in your device. And yes bravia engine consumes more power, but i do not give a damn, I just need performance that when someone holds a nokia or samsung by me... his expressions are like... AWWWWWW...!!

Turning on the bravia eng consumes more battery right? I should know that;-) as for the battery app, Im using Snap Dragon Battery Guru only since the ICS times.. So far, it's the best battery app for me..

I had this jb update 4.1.2 (.211 ver) since the first wk of june.. I'm using this phone for 7 months now so I should tell the difference between ICS & JB.. By the way, I tried recording in full HD again but still, it lags.. I don't know if I should reformat my phone or what.. I'm still waiting for an update from Sony.. I'm might probably just root my phone if there's none after 2 more months.. I appreciate your help! ;-)

                              @LT26II-SILVER- May i know from which country are you and please tell the version number of your jelly bean update??
                              Have you checked 19 fps property on your own mobile after recording or you just read the other opinions??
                              If not then I would request you to make a self recording and then check wether is it true r not.

                              While for the backup you can check wether the bravia engine is enabled or disabled while you wer on ICS and now on JB and is there any kind of third party power saver application you are using for your device??

That's w/ a little bit of gaming, surfing and texting/calling (full brightness).. Now, im charging 2x a day.. It's ridiculous! >.
