        Go the pics section and open 5th photo from HTC One V and 4th pic from Xperia U.
        If you still cant notice the difference, I will give up and take an appointment with an optician today.

                  If you are looking at a budget phone, you can consider the below. They are in no specific order.
                  Xperia Ray
                  Xperia U
                  Xperia Sola
                  HTC One V
                  Samsung Galaxy Ace 2

                  Disadvantages
                  Xperia Ray has a smaller screen. If you are a multimedia user that is one drawback you want to avoid.

                  Xperia U - Small storage. You need OTG cable and an external disk for more storage. Camera is a big NO-NO. You can compare the pics from the review with HTC One V.

                  Xperia Sola - All the hardware looks great on paper, users have complained about wifi, call quality, software hangs.

                  HTC One V - Lot of negativity surrounding the quality. HTC One S users in India are being deceived by shipping phones with S3 processor instead of the advertized S4.
                  HTC One V has its own share of problems with the display turning yellowish, display going blank, problem with the chipset to name a few.


                  Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 - No ICS 4.0 update yet from Samsung.

                  I have stalled my purchase and will check back again after couple of months to see the next batch of budget phones.

                        hi guys im using xperia U.
                        GOOD Side:
                        1. fast and reactive
                        2. nice, clear, crisp picture
                        3. super love the LED Bar
                        4. good audio, on calling and music

                        BAD Side

                        1. sometimes no. 4,5,6 wont press smoothly, u need to really touch the button slightly hard. but if u reboot ur phone it turns ok again..

                        2. sometimes alarm clock wont alarm

                        3. notification bar dont have the wifi, bluetooth, screen rotation touch bottons

                        4. u cant attach a contact no. automatically on writing msg.

                        i think they need to modify its firmware to make it easier to use. unlike my samsung wonder thier arrangement on button and icons are easy to navigate.

                            AnonD-34132, 16 Jun 2012one more thing, can we really make a 3G call with this phone??3G voice, but not video. The front-facing camera is for Skype etc only (and the audio level's not too great if you do).

                                        my friend has purchased this device, and checked it out completely.
                                        major issues:
                                        call volume is very low .if you are in place like road you cant hear anything . speaker volume is also considerably less, but in Bluetooth headset you get good volume.

                                        supplied headphone are not upto the mark and u dont expect this from sony.

                                        contrast on the phone is bad , even though u get a good clarity coz u have high ppi, when u increase brightness you loss the quality.

                                        dual core drains battery- u have to charge 2 times a day if you are using heavily .

                                        Pros:
                                        good touch response, no lag , games works good.
