if its for official use, take up lumia 520 and save some bucks
damn good backup and faster than any droid internet.
not much games and apps, which you dont need either.
take a droid only if you got 'entertainment' in your mind.

if you indeed need a droid, go for galaxy core. both sola and xpr u are stuck in buggy ics versions. even though both got good hardware to run 4.2 jellybean.

        I have purchased xperia u in last October, it is good phone but the camera is not working fine in night.I have visited service center for upgrade to ICS but they said there is no official update to this phone and they can not upgrade it. If anyone want to upgrade,can upgrade on its own risk.
        I don't know why SONY service center not upgrade it.

          Hai Xperia U users,
          I'm using this phone since 8 months;
          Works fine. But, sometimes it's sencer keys get hanged.
          I wish if would be fine, if it comes with 4 inch screen & expandable-slot.

                This Phone is great and Fast if on Original OS V2.3. If you Update to 4.0 ICS version you will be disappointed. My XPERIA U as of now was a lot of lag, not working very well, not good update for the new version. I contact Sony on How i downgrade my version so it work fast again like before. But they never answer. Now i need to read all review before i make an update on my Phone.

                  kannan, 08 Aug 2013Please let me which is the best smartphone by sony which 10... moreU is a great package in its price, but if you want a newer OS, you can try the xperia L, since it has jelly bean. or the lumia 520, if you want a windows OS. but if you are fun of customizing it, choose android

                    i have this phone for 6 months, No major problem, just the shortage of storage and battery life, but its not a big issue for me, the OS still runs good, although not as fast when its new, the camera works great too. btw i have ICS in it

                      I've had this phone for about a week and I must say that this is an excellent phone. The 8GB of memory is enough as long as you don't download loads of apps.
                      The LED strip above the cap is amazing and the dual-core 1ghz processor is speedy. I think another excellent thing is the removable caps (black,yellow,white and pink) if you order a black then you will get a pink cap etc... If you are looking for a phone that is around £100 to £130 then I recommend this strongly!!! But if this isn't for you and you can stretch your money then maybe look at the Sony Xperia P and Sony Xperia S

                                    To all those recently wondering/complaining about the available memory not being 512MB, this is perfectly normal. Like most computers, your phone reserves a certain amount of the memory for the Android system (so that it never gets usurped) and hardware devices. The graphics chip that the Xperia U uses reserves a bit more than some do, though, so available memory may end up being a little lower than on some other devices with 512MB RAM fitted.
