Sony Xperia go - User Reviews

  • i used this phone for 7 years and its being used by my dad its a durable phone but not that much reliable the OS lags alot I had to get a custom rom for it to work properly the GPS takes 1 hour to work and thats a design flaw in all of Sony's mobile phones until the Sony Z2 came out the buttons stopped working in the 6 year but got fixed easily dissembling and fixing is easy on this phone its audio quality is literly shit I found the camera to be amazing really the sides and body are scratched easily but the screen got never scratched in the entire 7 years

  • Don't call it shitty, it's already old phone that's why.

  • Time to change phone I used to used this phone it keeps giving me problem low ram, the battery won't last, touchscreen issue when charging etc.. The reason I bought it is because of its water resistant capability but due to the material they use it became shitty. Also, normally mid rage phone will last 2 years max and high end up to 4 years.

  • if you have android 2.3.7 the latest supported of whatsapp for that version of android is 2.17.253. after that there is no update. (my information is based on that i have this version and there is no update for me in google play after this version of whatsapp) However if your android is 4.0.1 or 4.1 probably you can update more. There is update if you want to upgrade your phone You can find updates in xda forum. However i didn't updated because i saw in somewhere that those updates have more lags because of low ram of device. Also i checked whatsapp site and they wrote that they support android gingerbread until 2020 and after that whatsapp won't work on this version of android. Good luck

  • I have been using my ST27i since 2013. Suddenly it cannot download the new Whatsapp version. Please advise if the phone is still compatible.

  • Hi, You can get replacement usb/charger covers from ebay for a couple of £'s.

  • Dont update to the latest version. (4.something) it causes the device to lag. If you've already upgraded to it then you can downgrade it which is pretty simple. I did it without any previous skill or try and the phone still works fine. Just Google: Sony st27i downgrade.

  • Bought this phone in 2013 and still actively using it. Main usage is texting, photographing, taking notes for reminders, and listening to music. In 2016, the phone's cover for the charger broke off due to excessive opening and closing, but the phone is still going strong. Only considering another phone now because I need a front facing camera too.

  • My cell phone battery for a long time did not stand?

  • The only phone that can be smashed and left in good condition

  • I bought it 2013 still working I change digital Screen bcz it broked It still good phone Sony has a super connector

  • pro: small size, easy to carry, easy to root, pretty good battery life, Walkman app is kinda nice (so obviously mine is now a dumbphone turned portable MP3 player) con: WAY too much bloatware, microSD card slot is recessed too far (need a stir-stick to push the card in, and tweezers to remove it)

  • My Sony Xperia go serves me well. But the thing is the USB and 3.5mm jack covers are easily got damage after a year. One thing i love about this phone is that you can put it inside your pocket whilst working out.

  • I too got my Xperia Go in 2012 and am still using it. I love the size and the ease of use. Other than a newer Sony, which I cannot afford, there is no other phone that I want. Although there is no front camera (I know what I look like so why do I want a photo??) it is the best camera I have come across. Few new phones have specifications good to warrant my ditching my wonderful Sony.

  • best phone, bought it in 2012 and m still using it, its affordable and manageable. and it has water proof yay!!!!

  • You need to install the new software version in you phone with xperia-companion. This may help you:

  • Australia: Presently plan is with Optus - bad customer "service" want to change carriers- but will changing SIM mean that my stored phone numbers and calendar dates disappear ?

  • its a really good phone, m still using the phone since 2012-16, sound software quality is still better than any of the new high end devices

  • November 2012 if i'm not mistaken, battery also is an issue due to its easily drained when used in data. Wifi connectivity is good and dropped a dozen time but its durability is good.

  • That is exactly my situation as well. What date did you get it in 2012?

  • Good phone i have since 2012 and up to now (2016) is working fine, just some minor issues with the earphone cover and charger but manageable.

  • I really loved this phone. The camera is very good (very good for 5mp). I changed it for a new one because when JB arrived, it was too much for a 1300 mah battery and is comprehensible.

  • why is this phone still running on os gingerbread, my own never updated and all the apps are outdated

  • It's good if you want a cheap phone for easy use. After some time of using the phone, it will lag a lot and games will crash very often. It doesn't have a secondary camera which bothers me, not a very good phone but it serves it's purpose

  • Why sony xperia go keeps dropping the wifi connection.?very hard to connect,

  • Its a great phone but the battery is non-removable

  • Install pc companion in your computer, full charge your mobile phone a then update the software. you can get pc companion here:

  • its a great phone fo sho but the problem is on how to upgrade it am struggling with it

  • Great phone!!!

  • im unable to read telugu language in wattsapp message when iget telugu message im getting square boxes

  • i am still on android 2.3.7 i do not want to upgrade. how can i safely root my phone? what specific app and version should i use?

  • Very bad smartphone from Sony . More slow if possible acter JB update. Do notre buy a Sony smartphone . Junk phone.

  • Great phone my best ever! But I rep touchpad and now it just won't respond what so ever pls help!

  • This is good phone if it has secondary cam

  • nice phone if it has 3G cam

  • great little phone it serves me well

  • worst phone of mah life..... dont dare to buy it.... jst hate it

  • you buy a second hand

  • A great phone for underwater adventures or tours.

  • I really love this phone, great phone for underwater shots :)

  • Thumbs down for this phone... I have for 6 months and it was already about 7 times at a serviser.... It is so small, it does not have front camera..... For this money I could buy a new, better phone that is bigger, it has front camera and it has lower radiation that this...... my sony xperia go has went about 4 times just because his battery died- it has 37% and than it turns of and writes "battery 0%" it has about 4 new batteries that costs a much... about 3 times it was by a serviser because he was blocking and I am so sad because of this because I needed to erase all my contats, photos, games, apps....... now if I have only 1 app, it is blocking again..... I do not recomended it because it is terrible....... for this money you can buy samsung galaxy grand neo plus as I did and it is much better than this craph.......

  • install aoxp rom, kitkat. much better than JB

  • install sony pc companion on ur pc and click update phone to latest version thats all""""

  • u can buy it if u want to.but u will regret havi it.network prblm,its slow,sound not good.ive got experia go.its shit

  • how to update android to 4.1.2(jelly bean)

  • haw take 3g call

  • its very slow

  • Does this phone have a Voice Recorder? I am struggling to record, pls help

  • I am gonna replace it after 2 years, It was great at first, its IP67 is perfect specially at dusty environments, I droped it alot, but its getting tooo slow, response to call is very slow, camera not good compared with other 5MP cameras, cannot with stand a lot applications due to low RAM

  • I ever had a sony xperia go,, but after 2 years i used.. the screen on the coner is not responding, why that's gonna be happen ??

  • waterproof is almost fine , no problem if dropped into water . once dropped into floor the touch sensitivity reduces gradually from both sides . cannot be used with local or other brand chargers it affects touch sensitivity . speed worth its price , average camera , actually i dropped it once and the touch was almost gone in a month then the phone was replaced by sony , dropped it again but was so late to claim warranty . used for almost an year

  • This is the worst phone I've ever had. It's so slow. It takes forever to load, the software sucks. PLEASE DON'T BUY. Even a blackberry loads faster. If I was being murdered the calling screen takes 30 seconds to load and by then I'd be dead.

  • You can only transfer it via the computer unfortuneility.

  • The Sony Xperia go is a very good phone I have had it for 6 months and I've dropped it a few times and the screen doesn't cracked yet bu the only problem I had was that the one side of the screen stopped working for no apparent reason.

  • I just want to know, how do u transfer pics, videos n music frm internal memory to memory card. I have this foun fr 3months now

  • I won't let go it..over two years now..being fell about hundreds but still amazing..although it's sometimes annoying because low of RAM..but even though..it leaves me a lot of beautiful memories.. :')

  • Been using my Xperia go for over 2 years and it's still providing me with great service. Abit slow now

  • i use sony xperia go since 2nd year highschool im now a 4th year student and still using the same phone. i love it .it seems like it's the best phone for me. it fell many times until the screen was cracked by a stone when it fell .the touch screen is not functioning so i changed the screen and work as new and now i got the same problem but it didnt fell this time. the phone and its features is really great but now i regret buying this.

  • Better samsung galaxy xcover s5690

  • Hey i have this phone for over 2 years, but i wanna downgrade it to GB(now JB), anyone here can give me the full step of downgrading it?

  • I have this phone over two years, it's good one, just sometimes slowly works if I put many applications on, it's cool and not often with problems, and when it makes one, just switch it off to SAFE MODE and it become like new. my advice if you wanna fast phone and you like games and use many app in the phone, this is not the one.

  • Using this phone for 18 months. It has fallen like million times so far and still working without any technical issue. It is a bit slow if you dont take care of it. you have to be careful whit apps, it doesnt have unlimited resources. I have deleted every widget running on home screen, also unnecessary apps to speed up the phone. If not enough i will downgrade to older android. But so far i guess no other smartphone would hold up so well (physically).

  • I'm not happy with the Xperia Go. Bad speakers (you cannot hear GPS instructions in the car if the engine is running), crashes almost twice a day (without apparant reason), battery very low capacity, problems with audio output jack and worst of all: NO service by Sony, who keep ignoring the complaints. So after less than 1 year, still more than one year warranty left, I bought a new phone...(nope, not a Sony...never again)

  • I need to upgrade and was thinking to get the Sony Xperia go, but after checking reviews, does not seem like a good idea. Are there any good reviews that lasts 2 and more years?

  • i had this unit for over two years now, very handy to use but when i installed viber and runkeeper it always hang whenever i receive incoming calls

  • Had this phone now for years, BRILLIANT little phone, does everything and more even for its age. Read other negative posts here, all I can say is just look after them and they last.....like everything in life

  • I got my xperia go on contract 1. The battery don't. Last a day. 2 the touch screen i replaced twice 3. the lcd screen. Replaced once 4. Charging pin replaced 5.the phone phones any number without touching the screen 6.when calling someone they can't here you but you can hear them 7.the phones signal is the worst of all the phones 8.The Sony xperia. Go is. Not a good . phone at all

  • In two years, six times was under repair. Freezing, battery consumption, and countless problems could not be solved. Everything pointed to the software-problem. But when I made a downgrade to 2.3 Ginger Bread all the problems are gone. This model does not support newer versions of Android. If you want the device works well, forget the ICS or JB Android.

  • This phone sucks, everything they said that it is designed with high durability, well that is not true, my phone touch screen just malfunctioned...and worst their service i just a collection center...

  • Hi guys, I had this experience on my Xperia Go, there are calls that I could not hear the other party on the other line but he could clearly hear me. There are calls that are okay...but most of the time I had this problem. Does anyone had experienced this? If so, what can I do with my phone?

  • such a good one.internet speed is chanceless.good and great phone

  • I have been using this phone for over a year, it is constantly freezing, the camera quality isn't great, wts even worse getting accessories is a mission

  • I purchased it in December 2013 . I love this phone & it has more than what I expected but the screen can' t work sometimes & the phone has a freezing problem. As I' m typing now it' s very hard because my screen struggles to work. Anyway I enjoyed having Sony I can load a lot of pics.

  • Very good phone , JB 4.1.2 :D , I Love it !!!

  • I agree with you. I won't recommend this phone to anyone.

  • This phone is lovely but it sometimes freezes when I am working on it. Either I wait for a while or I switch it off before I can complete what I was doing. Overall, the phone is lovely.

  • sony xperia go is the worst phone i have ever bought. do not buy this phone. it freezes when doing the most simple thing ever like making a call. it doesnt answer calls at all. music doesnt play for longer then a minute before turning itself off. worst phone on the market. dont buy.

  • Please assist me here my album has just gone blank, it refuses to show any pictures, it is just black I have to guess which picture I am choosing.

  • I used this phone now for 9moths at first i did experience stuff like geting stuk when i have the incoming call,may be it can just went off sometimes,then i realise that too many apps in the phone they are affecting the perfomance of my phone,when i go to factory setings it deleet everything then i only install the the social networks the lyk of FB,WHATSAPP,TWITTER,MESSANGER and some few apps than before,since i never have any problem with.PLEAS NOTE some apps are coming with its own softwire so if you install them some times they are disturbing the perfomance of your device.

  • hi.! there, i've been using my Sony Xperia go, for about 6 months since I receive it on contract, but I didn't experience any problem, this phone is more advanced, it is the best product ever, I like it so much.

  • This is a great phone! Just DO NOT update to ICS or Jelly Bean as it makes this phone uselessly laggy. (90% chance of not picking up calls, crashing to boot screen etc.) Stay on GB. Please.

  • The reverse (previous screen) indicator does not respond. Everytime I have to switch off and then restart for getting to the previous screens.

  • brilliant phone , been using it for the last 2 years and not a day of problems

  • Hi I had been using this phone for 2 years with satisfaction until last month when I upgraded it to 4.1.2 and then it used to have many problems such as hanging while phoning and decreasing the speed.so I did lots of thing but none of them were successful. Would you tell me what should I do? Actually I wanted to dong it again to 2.3.7 in the end but ... I really need your help! Thank you

  • Hi I just got my Sony T2 ultra and I was satisfied with 6.0 display but I was quite disappointed because I wasn't able to download intagram application. Can someone help me how to? It saids its not compatible with my device I already upgraded my software to kitkat. Thanks!

  • I've been using this phone for 2 years now. So many experience with this phone. Used it at Boracay beach. Soaked at water. And still now the phone is still ok. But the headset cover is gone now. And now im planning to buy another Xperia phone. I really love xperia phones.

  • I've ever used this old phone for 1 year ago. But i've already selled it, because it has some problems, however, it's heating, when i'm using 30 minutes, and sometimes, it was freezing about 3-4 hours. That's why i used this phone. I need to buy other phone, which it is good feature, and fast performance.

  • Its not because of the phone.. it because you rooted it.. That is one of the consequences you will encountered when you rooted the phone.

  • Hi.. I'm from SA n would like to know how much the sony xperia go is worth because I cannot find it in any shops near me n I really want to buy thee phone ASAP

  • many of us pinoys are not dumb.. surely we gonna pick and buy the item that we surely check the background..so why there's complaint?.. i have one of this x on d go.. for me its good and reliable.. scratch,water and dust proof?.. ofcourse.. small but terrible. sony is known for its high standard and good qualities of its product.. maybe some complains here depends on how the user handle d x on the go.. come to think of it..

  • Hello to every body. Just want to share my experience in this phone. Actually I bought this phone for almost 2 years. This is my first Sony Xperia Phone. I dreamed to have a Sony Xperia Phone someday. I bought it for 11,500 pesos on a mall in philippines. The main reason why I bought it because it was SCRATH RESISTANT WATER RESISTANT DUST PROOF as a consumer i put it on the test. WATER RESISTANT TEST: From Cavite I went to Batangas with my friend and were riding on the top of Jeepney.. Unfortunately there's a heavy rain and I have my phone with me. We are 5 on the top all of us bring their phone.. Their phone shut of after got wet but my phone is wonderful still working.. hahaha we took picture of our selfie.. I prove that this phone is dependable on rain but I have no experience yet soaking in water but for rain it's definitely wonderful. SCRATCH RESISTANT TEST: I also put my phone in my Maong pants which has lot of stuff.. coins,coins,coins.. even though coins scratching the screen i have no any problem because no scratch at all. I never tried yet using a blade to test it.. hahaha of course everything to much is bad. DUST PROOF TEST: I always take care of my phone.. I always bring a small cloth to wipe dirt.. that's all. CAMERA TEST: 5 megapixel is good. I can take decent picture. It just have no front camera. but it's okay. JELLY BEAN UPGRADED: This definitely work for me.. I am not techie but I have no problem accessing my Facebook and Gmail and some stuff. I just only have 2 Games (POU & 4 pic 1 word) BATTERY LIFE TEST: Actually my phone last for 5 days for normal use probably because i download a battery saver.. most of the time i use text and call.. STYLE: Here in Philippines lot of people amaze for a big screen phone 5-6.8 inches or phablet.. hheheh unfortunately those people have those kind of phone can get easily snatch.. sorry to say.. in Philippines there's a lot of snatcher.. in Malls,MRT, everywhere please be careful. My phone was definitely okay. because it was slim and very easy to put every where.. Actually I put in in my pocket and that's it. never had a problem. unnoticeable. Verdict: Everything has pros and cons As of now. I loved my Sony Xperia Go.. Hahaha like it's name.. It's always on the Go. Thanks Sony. I love you since The walkman was born..

  • sony is good! and that's it!

  • I am Using Sony Xperia Go for 9 months.. Phone Was OK on Android 4.0.4 ICS butAfter Upgrading to 4.1.2 JB There are Alot Of Bugs and problems.

  • Bought this phone 1 year ago then I installed custom Android 4.4.3 KitKat ROM because the original ROM sucks. The performance are bad and it can't play high-end games. Had to overclocked it to reduce lag. Now the screen is broken after it fell to the ground. Some area of the screen doesn't work. I'm getting a new phone and I'm not going to buy any phone from Sony. Don't buy this phone. There are more better phones out there and it's cheaper like the Motorola Moto G.

  • Jelly bean on Xperia is not too bad but I heard kitkat is better, how do I upgrade to kitkat?

  • i have this, very bad screen and tuch

  • bad screen and battery life.,all of its specs are bad.,

  • I hate this phone. I've never had problems with other phones in the past, but this one is a disaster. I got it about 1.5yrs ago, and it's already been in for repairs twice, had the motherboard replaced, had issues with the speakers (callers couldn't hear me) and I couldn't upload the new software.... it had to go to the service centre even for that. It worked ok for about a week after I got it back, and although it "works" it takes me up to a minute to make a call (if it does it at all, i often have to try a few times before it will make the call), and it often gets stuck when i'm trying to answer a call, and the ringtone keeps going even after i've answered it. I can't wait to get rid of it.

  • I bought the phone with lousy touchscreen from Sony CENTRE (AUTHORISED) ! Are you PR personnel from Sony????

  • bad touch screen will not buy from sony mobile anymore!

  • Don't buy this phone.touch pad problem is always in this phone

  • Does the xperia go have a removable or non-renewable battery.And the e1 way better than this because it has a 4" screen,512 mb

  • Does the xperia go have a removable or non-renewable battery. And the e1 way better than thid because it has a 4" screen,512 mb

  • for your kind information it is not a waterproof phone it is only water resistance

  • It has 165 ppi, not 400

  • I wanted to buy this phone but now the comments has discouraged me, I will rather try samsung S4.

  • touch pad is always the problem of this phone..DON'T BUY this Phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the touch pad is quite sucks..don't buy this phone..

  • This phone is worst.Every time its touch having complaints.I changed once it is in warranty.Now also facing touch problem

  • My friend has this phone and she's scared to try the waterproof thing. The phone is waterproof but up to only 1 meter deep in water. So u can swim with it but if it goes deeper than 1 meter your phone is gone.

  • i absoluted 100% agree. sony updates suck. but they're not alone, samsung and most other brands have the same service suck. its up to us to change the software on our phones to make it better. learn here:

  • it tells certainly about YOUR battery, but not MINE, and most of XGO owners, I'm sure. have it checked. Mine, with viber, skype calls last 15 hours between charging on average, and my xgo is 2 years old.

  • i used to be less than 100% with this phone in latest jelly bean sony update. Then i tried unlocking the bootloader, then i rooted, then i flashed a custom KITKAT ROM! wow! all apps loaded perfectly - whatsapp, viber, bbm running at the same time, with swiftkey as well. - couldn't do that with jelly bean. AND no Sony marketing hype bloatware, memory improved, battery 15 hours between charging. all thumbs up. hardware specs is really only half the story. the software also makes for a better performing phone.

  • ignorance will make your life really miserable. learn how to unlock bootloader, root, and flash a custom rom. your xgo will feel BRAND NEW, believe me.

  • have it fixed. be careful with your phone. observe proper charging. don't abuse/drop your phone

  • go here: all the kitkat cutting-edge roms there. i recommend CM11 STE or AOSX, as i personally found those more stable

  • your so wrong! it is waterproof. I swim with it, take pictures under water, even take calls underwater. USB and earplug sockets must be sealed, of course.

  • you should learn to flash custom rom. i was not too happy with Sony stock rom, even with the latest v.1.100 update. So i went shopping at xda website. Now very smooth, excellent battery, feels like NEW!! using AOSX KITKAT 4.4.3 awesome

  • what are you talking about? my xgo is 2 years old, no issues with screen. you should take care of your phone, maybe you drop it or rough with it. it is like a puppy, handle with care

  • I have bought this phone 2yrs ago and it has been very well since then. I have updated it to jb and the works pretty well. Sometimes it acts abnormally like, at night its battery is 54% and at morning it is switched off(0%) . All games run on it smoothly big games like most wanted.,gta vice city also run on it. Camera quality is pretty well but not that much at night. Battery back is ok ok. Fb, whatsapp,bbm,etc all run smoothly,and the best thing about this phone is its toughness my phone has fallen about 1000 times but nothing at all has happened to it. Its purely waterproof but you have to keep the ports closed. The looks of this phone are awsome. All in all its a nice budget smartphone

  • It's 100% wterproof,i dive into the sea with it and it works underwater.when i buy it ,i had some issues,but after a update,it works good.his minority is that does not have front camera for 3g & skype calls

  • what an awful phone! Sony sell bad touchscreen phone!

  • Horrible phone. Especially after the update to Android 4.1.2. Slow, slow, slow! It takes around 5 seconds since you slide to answer the call until it establishes the connection. Unbelievable! How they allowed this update to be released to this phone?...

  • The usb port and earphone socket have to be closed for it to be waterproof. Had my Xperia go for 5 months now and there are no waterproof problems..

  • Not waterproof at all and not even guaranteed for water. Gave in my phone at Sterns and still waiting for response. There answer only waterproof for 1 month.

  • how to upgrade this android ice creamsandwich to kitkat version

  • touch not woring partially

  • after they reset my phone, because I was told that the solution for the problems the phone had, was the fact that I have downloaded Viber, so I had to reset the phone, I had the phone charged 100%. I talked after 2-3 hours for 3 MINUTES and the battery collapsed. I didn't use either wifi, bluetooth, gps, compass, radio, camera or anything else. The only thing i did was to use the phone for 3 minutes. Does this tell you something about the battery life?

  • TOuch Pad Problem and battery problem.

  • Hi friends. How about the power of battery if we use for a day? Is that good?

  • how used data transfer with cabel

  • touch pad defect

  • you can't do ANYTHING! Even if you do, the microphone will collapse and the other applications will not be able to operate together when whatsup is on. I can't believe that people actually say good comments for this phone

  • awesome phone carries a gorgeous look and its fabulastic

  • mine is not work i cant even connect to whatassp it alway displaying an alert that sad incorect date fomat wht can i do plz help

  • This mobile phone is the worst i have ever had! Even if it was a phone, the phone application was not working, the touch buttons were not working, while I was replying I couldn't listen to the speaker, the microphone was as if metals were clashing each other. After I had the software updated (they said that this would fix everything) the battery collapsed!!! While it was showing that battery level was at 37% despite the fact that wifi and gps were not on and the phone was on energy saving mode, after talking for 2 minutes the phone shut down. I don't know what to do with this phone.

  • I have been using this phone for over a year now.. whatsapp, bbm, facebook, messenger, emails, games... evenrything..and its working fine...for the price, its a good phone.

  • battery backup is bad. only one week, gonna change

  • one the worst mobile phones i have ever used...... slow like a snail, worst interface, apps crash usually......never buy this phone, comparing to this if u want to buy a cheap phone then buy Nokia 1100 but never buy this one...........

  • Is it worth it buying this phone? Suggestions please.

  • I totally agree with you. I have an Xperia U and it basically lasted me for only s year.The keyboards stopped working. Buttons are hard to use and it really is fustrating. I will never buy another Sony phone again

  • In my opinion this is a great phone, droped in millions of times and nothing has happened as well as in water. The camera is great. And the phone is quite light and very durable. I love it!

  • Posting this on my lagging Sony xperia go. This happens to be my 3rd, yes 3rd, handset. My first one must have fell no more than 1 ft and something inside must have went as the screen stopped working. Even still this phone is awful. It's slow at loading aps. In particular, Facebook takes a good 5 minutes to load after ive force closed it several times. It likes to unhook the SD card when it feels like it. My 2nd handset was exactly the same except it didn't fall,t just stopped working. All the buttons and touch pad stopped working. And since ive had my 3rd one ive had to manually reboot it 7 times as ieach time it froze. Utter shite. Won't be purchasing another Sony ever again. Don't recommend to anyone especially those with high blood pressure as this phone will probably push you to the point of a heart attack.

  • My handset was in shallow water only for a few seconds and it got water damaged. Whatsapp messages take very long to go through.

  • I jst bought myself this amazing fone,Im still trying to find my way around it,nd im soo scared to try to put it in the water

  • Agree GB is best for the device !!!

  • phone is fine dropped it in water more than 10 times camera is perfect it is like a rock but only thing i have mic is not strong enoug

  • How many Sony go display price

  • How do you upload Whatsapp with Sony Experia Go as i've followed the steps from the Whatsapp Android but i don't get any joy from the device.Pleae help!

  • I'm having so much lag cos I upgraded to jelly bean. I suggest u don't upgrade to kitKat. The processor won't support it.

  • A few months after buying, the phone developed touch related problems. Few areas of the touch are non responsive. Texting is terrible with frustating lag in the on-screen keyboard. Tried the official Jelly Bean update with no use. Took it to the service center and they said its a common problem and Sony no longer services this phone. All you can do is replace it if you are willing to pay half the original cost of the phone . Very disappointed !!!

  • Best phone...nice price and rezistance...no soft problem here... works perfect no lag

  • Some areas of touch screen not responding...it's totally annoying.

  • this device only suitable with GB version. ICS or JB were biggest nightmare for this device. i have three sony xperia go. if u can downgrade it to GB, then u will get perfect go!!!

  • just force restart...press power button and volume up button to force restart...wait for a few minutes before turn back on...if that fail,boot it in safe mode..to do this,press volume down button when the xperia logo pop out...hope this help... :D

  • Is it true that all Sony Experia cellphones are discontinued??? I was interested in a Sony Experia Go Or a E1, but was turned away at to cellphone shops with the answer - Sony Experia Cellphones have been discontinued.

  • Never hated a phone as much as this one. Can't make calls because there's a delay, can't pick up calls because the phone freezes and there's a delay. No skype, no viber, no regular calls. Keeps freezing and crashing. Can't see the photos on my album, tried reseting, a week after the same problem appears. Sent my phone to fix, same problem. Switch phone, same model, same problem. No front camera. Grainy main camera. Crap memory. Crap battery. Never touching a Sony phone ever again.

  • Guys, i'm having a problem that my phone mic is not responding in calls if i have more than two games installed (games like temple run 2 and minion rush). But if i uninstalled the games the mic works good.. Please help me. what to do ?

  • 512mb ram very short.

  • Anyone tell me how to update my jellybean to kitkat and how? I have my phone for 5 month. I dont want jellybean I like more the ics its no lag. Thanks!

  • Yes of course I love it the Sony Xperia go phone is awesome

  • Awesome phone, almost 3 years of use driving boats every day in rough environments, salt water, rough seas. Have done phone calls whilst being washed by waves, no problems. Dropped the phone a thousend times, merely a scratch. Thumbs up!!!

  • it has many problems like auto shut down,and within a year you are gonna face touchscreen problem within a year and in a year you will be out of warranty so they won't replace it,don't be attracted to water resistant thing.better avoid sony.

  • unexpected stuck.......whats the hell is going on....nice finish

  • I have had this phone for a year and I love it. Battery life is fine, unless you start playing games then they will chew it. I upgraded to Jelly Bean 8 months ago and never had a problem. The phone is smooth, no lag. Best of all, I forgot it was in my board shorts pocket and went swimming / body surfing in the ocean for 30 mins. Came out to dry myself off and realized the phone had been swimming with me! It never missed a beat. Still going strong. With any other phone that would have been a $400 mistake. I will only ever buy waterproof & dustproof phones.

  • Does the Xperia Go have Stamina mode for the battery? I suggest you guys make an upgrade to Kitkat.

  • Dude same freaken thing just happened to me when i reset my phone... It's pissing me off becaus all it dose is turn off and on. Ive had so much trouble with this phone from the day I got it.... Hate this freaken phone....

  • i have xperia go for about a year and 4 months ago its started to reset nonstop (never turned on completly just turn off and on..) is anyone having the same probem? i send it to service but they dont know what is wrong and i am about to loose my mind..

  • if your a heavy gamer or application person I don't recommend this phone for you except you cant tweak it goto xda developers for that in all to enjoy this phone tweak it goto www.xda-developers.com

  • Just wanna know if it would be fine to upgrade to KitKat.... I heard that Xperia Go has troubles making calls on Jelly Bean. I haven't updated my software (Ice Cream Sandwich) since I got it two months ago.

  • upgraded the phone to CM11 KitKat and now it feels like brand new - longer battery life, bigger RAM space. No need to buy a new phone!

  • My wife purchased this phone without having any idea about android phones at a heavy cost around 12000/- nearly 6months ago without telling me once. The problems now we are facing : 1) Poor battery backup 2) Some areas of touch screen not responding. 3) Phone not reading another SIM, it does the default (my wife's SIM) :(

  • go to settings(screw/nut)sign>language and input(kep board with stylus sign) and change language

  • i have bought xperia go phone and i cant use the phone because i dont know how to change language please help if you know

  • always hang ergh -_-

  • My Xperia Go battery lasts for days on standby, at least 3 days with a few SMS sent. I changed the WiFi settings, uninstalled/disabled all bloatwares, disabled the data when I don't use. For the WiFi, go to Settings > WiFi > Advanced > Keep WiFi on during sleep > Only when plugged in

  • My sony xperia go...i cant open it i dont know why..

  • This phone is really big shit.The battery life sucks.It lasts 20min. stand-by time i dont know what is happening with this damn device.The processor is -10/10 it sucks and also the ports closers got off both this phone sucks.I dont reccomend it to anyone get samsung or LG deffenetly not xperia phones they suck

  • i have xperia go and my phone body is demage after i changed my phone body can it work waterproof plz help guyz

  • My phone's stand by button is not working properly. Music Player & FM Radio stops suddenly anytime after Jelly Bean Update. Battery life is excellent and i don't have any touch issues like others

  • poor finger response when wet/ underwater.there should be dedicated button to take pictures to augment that problem, very limited options to customize the themes.not actually durable because it only fell once and the corner was chipped off, however it is still waterproof hence a point for that. over all, just an OK phone.

  • A poor product from sony. The touch screen failed on 14th month. Sony center @ Trivandrum said warranty expired so shell out Rs 7000/- for repair.Interestingly they told they will supply a different phone ( Experia go)with a 6 mo warranty for 7000/-. I threw it into the dust bin.

  • I own this smartphone, and i agree with you the touch screen is terrible. poor quality and poor finger response

  • ohh, i see, so that mean i need to change a new one screen ? oh my , ,

  • @kilurt: i had my xperia screen replaced here in the philippines. I spent 1800pesos (around $40) At first I thought I just need to enter some codes or download some app in PlayStore for the screen to work fine. But after checked up of my xperia go touch screen, they said I need to have it replaced so I did.

  • This handset is never worth buying, disgusting touch screen response, cheap quality screen i must say, worst keypad on touch and poor calling experience as it may call any number when you are on call. Overall poor. But yes i liked bravia engine.

  • I do not recommend this phone!!! It is very slow and often I can't even call anyone because it will not respond. Some internal apps also wont except my wireless internet connection as valid internet plus the screen sometimes does not turn on and I will have to restart it... I strongly recommend a different phone!

  • failed touchscreen.... I m ready to get samsung s5 !!

  • xperia go or xperia V?

  • i like my xperia go. before buying it i made a lot of survey and found out xperia phones tend to "hang". i followed the advisory to restart the phone daily. and so far it no long hangs. i love it very much since it fits my preference of a phone: waterproof, scratch-free glass and it fits my pocket.

  • already but the problem is same, cant touch k and o.. mmmm, i think this screen already damage, mmmm.. waste of my money buy this kind phone..

  • exactly we have the same problem with yours and until now I don't know how to solve it.

  • M from chennai. Annanagar service centre knows how to do business My sony xperia also is useless. Battery - 2/10 Display - 4/10 Sensor - 1/10 Volume - 3/10

  • Have you tried downloading another keyboard from the play store? The original one is sick. there are many keyboards available for use.

  • after using it for more than a year till now, i face many problems with it. especially with the battery and lag problem. it took so long to make a call and i hate it when i need to make an urgent call. when my battery is less than 15% and i have to call someone, i cannot make it cause it lag and goes off (and im almost lost too. since that time, i have to bring another phone just in case) i have use the stamina mode but it doesn't make a big difference, so i downloaded the battery saver app but it still drained very fast even i don't using it everytime and i don't run many apps (2-3 apps). it's just a small phone, the graphic is average. i never put my phone brighness into very bright. i never play games there and use many apps. i don't know either sony phone's battery drained fast or it's just 1305 mah battery :/. and the problem i face from few days ago is i can't see any photos in my picture but i still can select it to delete it. it can be opened but blank. weird...

  • It's good value for the money.

  • Please someone help me. My xperia go cant touch pad k and r . Anybody can help how to fix this problem? I've upgrade it to jelly bean and it seems had a big problem.. Anyone pls help !!!

  • Can you download bbm on the sony xperia go

  • Hi all.. i was using this phone more than 1.5 years and writing this review about xperia Go st27i. I bought this phone soon after it released (Aug 2012). initially the phone as smooth and water resistant was good enough. Problems i faced with xperia Go 1. this phone has two openings on either side one for head set and other for USB and has a thin guard to close these openings. After 6 months both of them will break and it spoils entire look and phone is no more water resistant. 2. i faced problem with speaker,(ie) could not hear caller's voice in outdoors. 3.1300 mA non removable battery sucks. i have to charge my phone twice a day fully 100 % even though battery drains quickly. 4.problem with GPS signal- Most of the time gps wont work. i have to swich on/off gps several times to get gps. 5. Call hangs- When i tried to answer calls it lags and takes about 15 to 20 seconds to hear callers voice after swiping the call button on the screen. 6.five MP cam is good but it lags to take a single shot 7.Finally it happened. -I dropped my phone once the display screen was broken (only touch screen was broken not inside display) . i worried much, went to sony service center inn anna nagar and shocked. They told it will take rs 6500 to replace xperia go touch That the end of life for my xperia go :( i wont buy SONY MOBILE anymore.

  • why my hp can't open it. pls,

  • Me too, my touchscreen no longer work just after 1 year!

  • Try to use google devive manager. www.google.com/android/devicemanager If the internet is on it may find it. Good luck

  • try here...

  • Does any one know if it has n tracker in mine was lost on friday

  • Does any one know if it has n tracker in mine was lost on friday

  • Here is some good advice to avery one. Don't DROP the phone and the screen won't crack

  • failed touchscreen, that's not what we should deserve from sony!

  • can u tell me how did u downgraded to its original factory software...

  • but some users dont possess the DIY skills!!

  • my xperia go was broken,after repair the display glass cannot pinch for zoom

  • You can just buy the screen part online and get someone to replace it or DIY

  • i've been using xgo for a year now..but i don't seem to have any problems with my touchscreen..those who have problems might be because of the jellybean..i did upgrade to jellybean, encounter lots of lagging especially when making or receiving call..downgrade it back to gingerbread and everything went back smooth.. i've opened and closed the flaps lots of times to recharge, transfer files and also for music..i also opened the back a lot since i'm using 2 different sims.. yes, the flaps does seems a bit worn out..but this thing have been falling crashed landed from 2nd floor to the ground, still in one piece..thank god i have the case on at that moment..i've used the camera at the beach and swim with it too..answer a call or sms while having a shower, or under the rain..and till now, the phone is still great..the best durable waterproof phone ever! although right now i'm going to get the xperia z1 compact for my other sim..i don't think that it would be as durable as this one..

  • They gonna charge me $150 for replacing the touchscreen... I rather buy other new phone

  • very bad treatment at authorized Sony repair centre....my phone was banged by the staff and was told to leave since not under warranty... My phone was not deserved to banged!

  • yes..my Go touchscreen failed too....

  • Me too, my touchscreen no longer work properly just after 1 year!

  • yeah same here.. :D

  • Was not the product problem... You just don't know how to use your phone well... Mine work just fine...still look like new though never leaves my side...apart from that...its almost a year im using it... KEEP IT UP SONY!

  • I've been using this phone for about 7 months now...so far I have no problem with it and I love it...but if you installed too many apps you will of course experience phone lagging problem...just delete some of unimportant apps and your phone will work just fine...

  • Dear friend. Talking about your cons. Do you have a lot of apps so make your phone slower/ hanging? Is that true if we were update software can make this device slower? please!

  • this phone is worth your money. I have expericend non of tha problems being posted. its functions run smooth en I mean smooth. I have accidents drop it buh no screen crack of some sort. buh I would advise u get a pouch incase it falls on rocks. othawise,its perfect!!! am a fan of sony products

  • i had the same problem, i droped it and now the screen is broken.

  • Can't rate it more than 5 out of 10. Can't do internet banking(ANZ) because of an overlapping problem - the screen is 2 small. Problems with WiFi and doesn't have a 2nd camera 4 video calls. Also not very shockproof - I dropped it on a wooden floor from bout 30cm and now have a cracked screen.

  • If these model would turning up as become obsolete sooner and later (because i've failed to purchase that phone at the time that i've insufficient on fund as unfortunately) but i'll hoping soon if these model would become phased out at any market, then i find there replacement on his upgraded model, same sizes as 3.5" screen, higher-grade software improved reception, high battery capacity dual sim, intact ruggedness and the most of all high-grade wireless application, if there were much better at there same size category on any xperia series :-) i'll wait for the turn. thank you! -mark

  • no dear..there is'nt any front camera

  • yes me too charge phone and next day after several quick calls out and in its down to 15% yet its says 6.5 hrs talk time -no-way

  • i have the same problem but when i reboot the phone running fine

If anyone of sony`s agents read this Feel free to post me a email ,I`m now without a cell for the 4th [email protected]

  • I love this phone too much, it gives me what I want. I advise my friends to buy it, keep up Sony.

  • Sony xperia go is one of the products failed most complaints in the sony center is touch screen which easily damaged

  • The same problem..

  • me too, back button and some touchscreen area are not working

  • this phone is a value of money thank u sony

  • superb

  • Its become too slow after using some days

  • going to send the phone to sony centre this week

  • me too same touch sensitivity problem. what you did

  • It's a good phone but it's not really fast, and I have it like 7 months and covers at the music plug and the recharger are broken, so it's not waterproof no more.

  • Positives are that this phone is light and comfortable to carry and sound quality is good when used. Negatives are that it is not user friendly or easy to use. The camera does not always work and adding contacts is often a problem and error messages keep appearing. I have always bought Sony products in the past but this is the worse Sony product I have purchased and the worse mobile I have used. Stuck with it as I cannot afford to get another phone. I do strongly recommend that people should not purchase a Sony Experia.

  • I had the same problem, and after all my complaints telecom company gave me replacement. OR you should back old version if it posible.

  • The touchscreen malfunctioned just after one year... Now number 1,4,7 and go-back button is not responding!!

  • of course, I can even record video underwater with this

  • Its nice in evrything bt its battery needs improvement.

  • Same condition with mine, but do u know the reason??

  • I have problem with this phone after updated on jelly bean. I cant answer the call or make calls , screen is freeze and I cant't use it. Album aplication doesent working. If somebody have solution for this please tell me!!!!

  • what's your opinion on xperia go and glaxay s2?

  • My hands-on experience to Xperia GO (ST27i) Pros: �Water resistant. Yeah, can perform under water. �Very good touch sensitivity. �Dust & scratch resistant screen. (My Xperia GO does not have scratches on screen. No screen protector for 1 year.) �Durable. (Drops 14 times and still alive. Just got 1 small crack on the side.) Cons: �The audio jack seal easily wears off/loose if you always use a wired headsets. �Low WiFi signal reception. (My other phones can connect to WiFi fast & easy. while my Xperia GO needs to go near to the Wifi modem to connect and I don't know why.) �Always lagging because of too low RAM. (It says 512mb of RAM but actually it's just 389mb RAM. I also can't play good games because of low RAM problem.) �Low quality graphics. (The display is pixelated when playing some games.) �Slow camera response, slow capturing image at 3MP & 5MP resolution. �Becomes more slower after system update.

  • Woooh, that was pretty bad huh!tsktsktsk...

  • its true this phone can perform his camera under water?

  • Good phone for those who want compact, water & dust proof smartphone. Good camera. Easy to use. Good touch sensitivity. But this comes with the price. phone is slow (even after periodical restart, temp cleanup, using less no of apps), signal problem (with same service provider, same place my friend would get full signal strength), unable to attend the call sometimes. seems they did not concentrate on basic functionality of the phone. Not worth for the price.

  • I is amazing :)

  • Very awesome phone in all regards except for very poor battery life and speaker sound quality could have been better.

  • @Mon ve the same prb the memory/storage any way to solve it????????????????ppl

  • the best phone u can find all over the world . . . Best of all Xperia go im pleased with mine

  • sony says that the phone is ip67 but mine died in less than 10cm of water in less than 3 min...i contacted with the company and the answer was that i didnt closed properly the micro usb cover!!! i will not buy any sony again thanks but no thanks!!!

  • this smartphone has a very good cover. I bought it last year and now the back button and the option button are not working when i touched it.

  • should i buy this fone

  • Can someone tell me why my xperia Go stamina mode is not working?..its only show the same amount of time when in on and off the mode..please hlp..

  • friend this phone performance is good but as far as its body manufacturing is concern it is very poor. side battery charger and jack socket cover is very sensitive it gets break easily and once it gets break company will not give water resistance guaranty. phone sound is OK but camera quality is not good it takes time to click picture and images are blurred even on 5 mp. HD video quality is OK. battery lasts only 1 day another issue less internal memory and u cant move apps to SD card. despite of these problems phone works quite satisfactory as it is made by sony.

  • Dude its a smartphone not a piece of solid when you use so roughly and falls many times even normal GSM phone goes out of order. i am also using this set for long time and working quite good so you better suggested to handle with care rather than blaming device.

  • dude battery lasts only one day and if you use net you may have to charge it twice a day.

  • dude you can increase screen locking time under setting options. Go to settting>display>screen sleep time.

  • my fone its looking its self and dnt want to unlock..what should i do

  • why my go doesn't give me notification when an email coming ? it's very important because i have to refresh my email all the time to check..

  • FYI... There is no Front Cam in this phone

  • My Sony Xperis Go is 6 weeks old and it won't switch on. This is now the second time. It was send to the agents for repair, worked again for 2 days, now I have the same problem. Any solution s?

  • if you have file manager or astro file manager app installed look for "ext_card" folder

  • Second time on Sony Support...water inside and not even 10 centimeters under water...love the phone but disappointed.

  • There is no front camera in the Sony xperia go. It seems it has one,but there is not any front camera.

  • Use the front camera Use the front camera to take a photo or record a video. To use the front camera: 1.Press and hold the Camera key to activate the camera. 2.To change camera, tap the Camera icon or the Video icon. 3.Press the Menu key and tap Switch camera, if the front camera is not already selected. 4.To display all settings, press the Menu key. 5.Tap Touch capture and select On if it is not already selected. 6.Tap a spot in the viewfinder where you want the focus to be. The photo is taken or the video starts recording as soon as the focus is set. Note: In order to take a photo or record a video clip, a memory card must be inserted in the phone.

  • I just bought this phone from a friend and I would say that I am really impressed!!!. I was using a samsung Galaxy ace I could tell the huge difference between these phones/ manufacturers. Everything about this phone is likeable but the only issue I am having right now is the SD card not set as the defalut storage. Anyone please help me or send me instructions how to make changes on phone memory/ storage. Thanks

  • i have it now for over a year, everything works like it should, the only problem is when phone dropped accidentally on the ground from 1m, the corner of a phone body broke. touch screen in super sensitive, camera is ok, speaker sound is ok too. but with 4.1 android phone freezes sometimes or slowly responding to comands.

  • How long should the battery stay?

  • y , screen not very sensitive when typing

  • somebady told me tat this phone hang so much...itz true

  • ... Everytime i played some of gameloft's game ( heroes of c& o) it will automatically going back to home screen.

  • i love this phone, but the phone is still a machine, so don't expect this or that of it's beyond.the waterproof-ness of this phone working correctly, but if it's not, so it must be the seal or something has been broken, so, don't expect any waterproof-ness if this happens, like a house, if the roof broken, so, the rain will can slip into trough the broken roof.

  • this phone already can upgrade to android 4.1.2 why here just put upgradeable to android 4.0.4 ?

  • NO SHEET!!!this phone is crap...who ever want to buy this phone,please don't...you will waste your money like what i've been through...first,my speaker gone out,then my touch sensitivity,after that..this phone is freaking SUDDEN DEATH!!!!can't even turn it on!!additionally,this phone is so fragile..about 2 or 3 falls,all the edges will be chipped...even though this phone is "water proof",it will make your speaker sound like dafuq...please,don't buy this crap...just buy another phone that even better spec...

  • I'm very disappointed by Sony, since it's produced false advertising about this phone. The waterproof-ness lasts only if the seals are undamaged (the one which cover the jack-socket wears off in couple of months) and the shockproof-ness is slightly above of the other phones (the corners are broken after 3 o 4 falls). Overall , the phone by itself isn't bad(good camera, good display, light weight, small dimensions), but the "all condition resistance" is highly overrated

  • why my phone have part that is heat... i cant find any parts here in Philippines... i thought this is water proof,,why now its heated

  • what is the different between water proof and water resistant, i took my phone for repair @ vodacom they told me my phone is liquid damaged and it cannot be repaired. why you fooling people that this phone is water proof wheres is not?

  • its becausse its not water proof or dust proof.... its water resistant. theres a difference luv

  • Dont buy this phone, its always hang, n sometimes when someone call u it will respond late, n u will heard people talking after 5 to 10 second u pick up the fon. This my first time I spend alot of money to bought this phone,its too expensive n not worth it. Dont but this, n the camera also could not took pic fast like other smartphone, it will take time to focus,atleast 5to 7 second each pic sometimes more.it depends on ur camera moods. The only best thing is it is waterproof. Dont buy, china made are better than this

  • I don't know why people are complaining about this phone. I picked up this handset from someone brand new for £85... The handset is upgradable to Android Jellybean and if your having software issue's I guess you should update, I myself haven't experience the problems being mentioned on here... If you can pick a Xperia GO at a discounted price I would highly recommend you do so.

  • Dont buy on KIMSTORE!!.. or it will mess your life!. Xperia go is not water resistant, not water proof, not scratch proof. When I first try it underwater it just hung up on the few minutes and they didn't even bother to repair it to the fact that it's still under the warranty.

  • Xperia GO is upgradable to 4.1.2 Jelly Bean

  • plz guys i wanna buy dis phone and wanna know dat whn u chat is it a qwerty keypad?and how confortable to touch

  • WIll sony update this to 4.4? Please Sony! At least give this phone a last update!

  • Looking for buy this. Can anyone tell me is it worth the price? What is better xperia U or xperia Go?

  • Hi, ok it should tell you that theres an update available. But you can try backing your phone up onto your PC, and then do a hard reset, it will reset the phone to factory settings.Then, before restoring your phone from your PC, go to the update centre and see if it will give you the Jellybean update. And then once you have that, restore your phone. Doesn't your phone have a small notification at the top of the screen telling you that a new version of Android is available? Because Sony released the phones with an OTA update, as in the phone will tell you out the box that there's new Android. Older phones notified users of ICS, then Jellybean, and soon they'll notify of KitKat. Let me know if this helps, I think a hard reset might get the PC to recognize that you don't have Jellybean.

  • Hi, ok that is weird, it should update when you go to the update center. What I suggest is, back your phone up onto your PC, then do a hard reset. Once this is done it will be as if it's a new phone, without restoring your information from your PC back onto your phone, update to Jellybean. Then put your info back onto your phone. Does your phone give you a small message at the top of the screen that there is a system update available? Let me know if this doesnt work, :).

  • It depends on your network operator and mobile phone company, basically when an update comes out on and your phone can run it spec wise and Sony have announced that the phone will update if this is the case you may want to go to the Sony website and manually update via USB cable but iev never done it that way but feel free to try, unlike nexus devices which get android updates instantly other phones running on android will have to wait a while due to Google making sure that the firmware is stable on the phone and will manage new the new update also your network provider may affect when you receive your update. If your still stuck go to Sony support on their website and post your question that's what I did and they were very helpful!

  • I have tried many times to share videos and music with WiFi direct but failed... plz help me guys how to share music and videos with WiFi direct???

  • hi, how can I upgrade my xperia go in jellybean? because when I click the update center , it saids my software is latest,but my OS is only android 2.3. how can I upgrade my cellphone in android 4.0. sorry for my english help me asap

  • Can you teach me how to do that? I have a same problem too.

  • I have the same problem with this phone after I upgraded the OS. but I figured out how to stop the and my photos can be viewed on the albums again. All I did was make a complete back up on my computer. Then I made a hard reset and waited for several minutes until it booted and its back to normal with the latest version. It doesn't hang anymore and it has the new version. everything works perfect now. I love my xperia go, perfect size, and companion for my Gopro...

  • How long have you had your phone for? Have you tried a complete system hard reset?

  • it could be the worst phone availabke for this price. I've had a replacement made and yet the phone hangs like hell. Battery just doesnt last. The basic purpose of a phone is toanswer calls n this phone failed in that aspect. It laaaaags n lags and thats pretty much all it does. The water proof casing flaps fall off. Sound cord doesnt work. Half the time i cant hear a thing. I lost a fortune with this phone. Pls dont buy this. N theservice centres are the worst. They donoanything abt thephone

  • I have the same problem. I don't know what to do with this phone anymore.

  • I think maybe something is wrong with that individual phone, I've never had that issue, maybe take it in to get checked out by a technician? Also maybe you have picked up a virus?

  • I have this phone 6 months ago and it's great in all the factors, good camera, good speaker good batt and screen... and it's waterproof!!! but only got one problem, when i receive a call the system stop running and i can't answer the call, someone can help me

  • no

  • As for BBM, it should download no problems, I downloaded BBM onto my Go recently and for the first day it didn't work very well, but still worked, once I got the Jellybean upgrade it worked perfectly well. You don't need the new Android for BBM, but it'll work better. Last thing, the Android update is done via Sony PC companion, it's pretty easy to follow.

  • Plug your phone into your PC, then it should instal the sony companion software, then it'll tell you immediately that there's an upgrade available.Sony, as of earier this year release Go's with an OTA option to upgrade to Jellybean. Follow the steps via PC, and it shouldn't take to long, then it's done. Hope this helps, :)

  • You can download BBM with Gingerbread.

  • Dear refer to question already asked before by another user, actually I hv installed bbm application, and I hv got 4.01 for adroid os..but it can not work..It always say no connection found!. and I am sure that there is no problem for net work..I want to attach a capture of it but no attachment facility here, need explanation please..thank you

  • Thanks all for the answer but how do I upgrade the phone to V4.0 so I can install BBM app on it???

  • how do i upgrade to android version 4.0?

  • I don't personally have this phone, but you should be able to download BBM as long as you have Android version 4.0 or higher on your Xperia Go - refer this thread for confirmation:http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthr­ead.php/569739-BBM-for-Android

  • Can anyone advise where can I download the original firmware 2.3.4 for the xperia go model?

  • Cyanogenmod 10 (FreeXperia CM10) ist the best ROM for XGO. I tried all of them, trust me, all are shi**ty. CM10 works wonders! P.S. on FXP240 still no WiFi Tethering! (bug)

  • Works like a charm on Cyanogenmod 10 (google for FreeXperia CM10) Rooted, CWM installed, overclocked to 1150 Mhz (CM10 stock kernel, no need to do it manualy) Use SetCPU profiles to boost it and remove 95% lags. Custom mods I use: *Samsung S4Launcher for any Android = *CM10 stock zRam = 18% gives 75mb more RAM. *SetCPU = buy on PlayStore = setup 2x profiles = Screen ON (performance 400/1150mhz) = Screen OFF (powersave 200/400mhz) *Cache Booster Pro: get from PlayStore = set cache to 1024kb, fast app switching! *AdAway = removes 90% of all Ads. *Lux Brightness Control =little complicated to setup, but saves allot of battery! *Performance_Tweaks_By_TopDroid_v1.4.2.zip saves battery and boosts performance. = Boots under 30sec, min/no lag, no crash, no problem! :) Write me if you need advice on instaling CM10!

  • just update your whatssap on play store first, then it will work.

  • I had the same problem with whatsapp at first, and i'm from ireland, i uninstalled whatsapp from the phone, then downloaded it again from the google store and it worked grand!

  • I e many people complaining about shock resistant. Never found any info anywhere about that... ist only dust and water resistant... and water isnt diving with it. its a very good phone

  • I am very disappointed with this phone. Frequently freesing and very slow to process. definitely not for the social media butterfly like myself. The battery life and picture quality are awesome though.

  • The worst phone ever made by Sony..though they have marketed the phone as dust,water & shock resistant....the external caps broke off after 3 months use & some plastic also chipped off when the phone fell off from my hand...less than 1.5 meters height.... Never buy this one...

  • nop it doesnt only comes with 4Gb internal to use

  • Good-day Does this phone come with the memory card?

  • This is a huge phone!.. hahha.. i like it so much!

  • Buy someone with it :P

  • How do I get a front camera?

  • I bought this phone last month and all i can say is it is really awesome. You get more than what you pay for unlike my previous phone iphone 4s. For a very cheap price, you can almost do everything of what a smartphone should do or should be capable of. Plus i love the simplicity of its design. The only edge of iphone 4s is the camera, screen size, and video quality. However xperia go can also provide good quality photos and videos. And its durability is what sets the xperia go apart from iphones. And most of all, iphone is so freakin expensive wherein other smartphones can provide same features.

  • Xperia go is not water resistant, not water proof, not scratch proof. They didnt repair my phone when it was soaked until it hung up and would not boot. Very bad idea when i thought of buying this phone. Very very very very disappointed.........

  • This phone has been very problematic since I bought it:- The touch buttons below the screen are infuriating,when watching videos or playing games they get inadvertently touched & then you go directly to the home screen. The video recorder function doesn't playback the videos you've recorded & there's no dedicated camera button making it guesswork everytime you take a self portrait as the button is on the touchscreen. The phonebook also deleted itself completely once without reason,fortunately I had written down all my contact nos. The charger is tedious to connect & disconnect as you have to first pull out a flap,which will then fold itself back when you try to plug in the charger. The Android OS is a very unfriendly system with poorly thought out calendar,menus,photo album,music player etc & it's slow.The basic OS in my Sony Ericsson K790i is infinitely superior. Also if I try to switch off the phone,most of the time it just restarts. Remember this phone has only two hard buttons - POWER & VOLUME,so if you hate touch screens & touch buttons I strongly recommend against buying any Sony Xperia model as they all come with those user interfaces. I'm planning to replace the Xperia Go with a BlackBerry Bold or Curve soon. Thanks for reading!

  • i want to use it

  • does xperia go have apps for calibrate touch? my xperia go left and right side screen is having problems.... plsss help me....

Some of us were just in the comfort zone of other brands. Trust me. Explore the phone and you get what will entice you.

  • hi, im havin issues w/ my xperia go... suddenly i cant view all the pix in the album..i already try to check my sd card, restart phone, but still no good...any1 here can help me?

  • Do not buy this phone...!!!!!! its crap ..... Dont be mislead by the hardware specs ... To get the full out of hardware the software should be on par with that BUT in case of Sony software is the worst... You will regret buying this phone.

  • how do i remove widgets on the screen?

  • its a good fone, the only problem I qm xperiencing z tht the fone refuses to charge normally after the battery hits 0%! apart from tht... WELL DONE SONY!!!

  • hi! are you from philippines?i would like to buy your broken phone if you are not going to use it...give me a message..thanks!

  • Use app2sd app to move to sd card.Works well for me.

  • Xperia go's Message on Android v4.1.2 of Sony, sometime don't alert, What happened? What wrong with the source code? Sony program engineering should fix and release minor update for user. Don't let them use like that. :) I hope Sony release new update for Xperia go soon. I really hate the damn slide call stuck for a long while.

  • The Android version 4.1.2 on Xperia go is stuck in Slide to accepted call. I suggest Sony to change it become button is better than. :)

  • maybe your phone are not ori, thats whyy i brought xperia go lastyear anw its a give from my parents until today im still using it. #sonyisagoodbrand

  • msg vibration definition is on msg definition, not sound settings. open the messages then go to definition

  • Out of the three you named the only one with dual core is this sony. A better question is what do you want your phone to do. If your looking for an electronic companion to keep attached, the Go probably isn't it. For the price though it is a good phone.

  • only thing I can think of is extreme temperature difference. But if I am not mistaken it would have to be in excess of 70 degrees F, difference on each side of the glass, so for example from internal temp of 105 which is REALLY REALLY hot for a smart phone, it would need to be 30 degrees out side the phone for the glass to shatter. Alternatively, dropping it lol, j/k i was paying attention^^. Maybe Ultrasonic vibrations but then more than your phone glass would shatter. Perhaps swelling of the phones constructive material due to the excessive heat but honestly all of the above is a serious long shot.

  • phone works fine after upgrading to jelly bean 4.1.2 but sad thing is cant move apps to sd card.

  • turn off your phone and connect with a pc.... Go to my computer ,and open mobile mass memory then right click on this drive and format mass memory... Discunnect your mobile and turn on... Now your problem solved...no asking for password..sorry for bad english....

  • Sony make some great TVs, HiFi and portable audio. Their Sony Ericsson conventional candybar phones were great. I bought this phone because of Sony reliability, its neat size and it looked pretty cool. But, this phone is the worst phone I have ever owned. I upgraded it to Android Jelly Bean. Here are the problems: - does receive calls but does not always ring. The phone has to be rebooted every day for it to ring properly. - When dialing - sometimes the phone will ring 30-40 seconds after you have pressed dial. A dangerous feature if you deal with confidential conversations. - To top it all, the glass broke near the USB port when I lightly yanked the charger. In my 13 years of owning phones - I've never had a phone where the glass broke on me. Sony phones have really lost their way.

  • My xperia go doesn't vibrate only receiving msgs .I tried in settings .Bt im failed .it says enable vibration .Bt it doesn't work .And sometime it doesn't open conversations . What am I do .I need vibration plz help me guys .

  • DON"T get wet... 1 minute into the sea and dead. Pressed the power button in the water tho' (how else to wake up the screen?)

  • Non-removable Li-Ion 1305 mAh battery cant expect much from it, 19 hours including 9 hours use, its better. phone looks great but initially all the inbuilt apps will be on phone memory and sd card option will be grayed out, few software's and apps cannot work if those are on SD card. if you realy wish to have the apps on SD card as it only has 512 MB ram. you will need to find a way to root the phone.

  • MY SONY XPRRIA in the water jug few mint but he dead ? what you sajais can i sent the warranty. please replay me my quiction.

  • hi guys i bought this phone 3 days before i am facing sum problem like not able to move apps in sd card it is not showing that option only moving to internal phone memory and also photos not showing in album so pls help me out if any one have solution. waiting for reply..

  • I bought this 2 days ago and I am very dissapointed. The battery is not lasting not even a day,I tested,last night i charged it (while it was closed) and by the morning already the battery had 93 % remain.I opened for a while wi-fi to test it,some music etc and the total battery lasted 19 hours(about 10 hours in stand by in the night)so 9 when using( not playing and web browsing almost nothing).I expected more from Sony.Also the sound quality is really clear but slow,for example when i walk in the street and it's traffic i can't hear almost nothing in the conversation.Pro:it is really resistant to water,i tested 3 times and had no problems but I expected so much more from Sony.Anybody else has so poor sound volume?

  • Water resistant? Scratch proof? o come on guys, just another exaggerated ad for Go. I bought this phone because of this features, but everytime i was this i notice a little amount of water, until it totally damage my unit. (note, before i dip into water i make it sure that all ports were close tightly... Waranty was voided.

  • I was so excited about my new phone Sony Xperia Go. Then 3 weeks down the line, it falls off my lap onto a tile surface and the screen shatters. I was very disappointed as I was under the impression that this was a durable phone. I call my service provider and they tell me that i will have to pay for the repairs :(

  • I have my phone for just about two months now, unfortunately it fell from a height of about 400 mm. To my surprise the whole screen cracked.(a first for me) My network provider refuses to repair my phone, on their expense, maybe Sony can assist. A lovely phone, but just too flimsy. hoping to hear from Sony soon.

  • Dont go this guys..the processor is too slow..i hv more than 2gb internal memory left in my still its hanging..u can trust on its water and dust resistancy..bt its nt completely scratch resistant..as a scratch resistant ph I nvr used screen guard..now I am hvng scratches on my phone..its always hanging while playing games and need to restart it 5 or 6 times a day..

  • SIM and Contact import from Nokia: it says Mini Sim, but it actually standard SIM. dont worry. for import contact from Nokia phone: collect your Nokia phone contact in CSV file, then import to your Gmail account. from Gmail contact you can export your contact as VCF file, down to your PC or Nokia phone. transfer the vcf file to your xperia Go by Blue tooth, done. your xperia Go automatically include it to xperia's contact when you view the imported vcf file by BT

Camera pics Good clarity, truer color than other phones and 5-8MP reguLar cameras. I Like the ALbum feature which aLLows me to seLect a photo in the archive to enLarge it onscreen, whiLe I'm in camera Mode or from the Menu. Auto focus and face recognition good. Need to improve access to other functions whiLe on a phone caLL. Pick-up of Internet is sLow and sometimes frustrating. Its the phone because my friends phone which is oLder and not as tech QuaLity picks up the internet faster when we are in the same Location. Speaker Loudness and QuaLity need to improve. Screen stays cLean, not smeared or scratched at aLL with care and wiping with a DRY soft cLoth. A GOOD Looking Phone.

  • Hi I have sony xperia go and my android version is 2.3.7 and Iwant to update to 4.0 , when I go to update center I don't find any update . so how can I update it ???? Best Regards

  • Dude i hate you, firts of all root your phone and then modify your fold.fstab. If you don't know what im talking about, google it.

  • Just one very important note for anyone thinking of buying this phone...you'll have only about 5GB for installing apps. The external SD card can only be used to store your own media files like music, photos, and videos but you CAN'T install apps on the external SD card. So if you're planning to download a lot of games or maps or whatever I guess you'll need a phone with a much larger storage capacity. Regarding the performance of the device it seems to be working well on android 2.3.7 (Gingerbread). I don't recommend upgrading to I.C.S or J.B. because it makes the phone much slower.

  • I bought this phone it is dust resistant so ear phone holes are covered I use to hear song that cover is broken only once my phone fell down it won't work most of the Sony xperia phones are like that only like Miro don'tbuy Sony go for Nokia or Samsung they will work longer

  • i really regret buying this phone. it says that its water resistant and i saw on its advertisement that even flashed with strong water or dipped in a pool it wont be damaged. I brought it with me in a beach and it got wet suddenly the power was no longer working. after i sent it back for warranty they said it was void because it got soaked. Never TRUST sony...they just fool the customers

  • I have this phone and I've had nothing but harp heartache with it. I've returned it three times so far for the same fault. I have never had a phone that is this problematic. Don't buy it.

  • my xperia go already upgraded to jelly bean 4.1.2

  • Is it upgradable to jelly bean plzzz tell me

  • A good phone one cnt resist the applications,software inside,speed is extraordinary .get one and experience the magic touch and browsing

  • Hi frnds i wnt to knw dis mob is good or bad.plz tel me. .

  • very good phone i ever used and also worth for your money.

  • The LED notications won't work if you're in STAMINA mode or low-battery mode.

  • good information :) i just want to know if you upgraded already your Sony Xperia Go to jellybean?

  • very good phone, battery life is good, didn't hang ever since i bought this phone, camera is good, display is better with bravia engine.

  • Pls. dont buy this fone. I learnt it the hard way. Not at all worth the money u pay. Fone hangs often; Battery backup is poor; Apps not installing / working properly; Not fit for rough use (as advertised); Touch screen has started troubling within 6 months of purchase; PHEW ; and what not ..... Seriously I'm vexed of this stupid fone. Take my words.

  • Camera quality is very poor.

  • READ THIS. If you want to buy this phone, here's one fact that might change your mind. Although it is 1 year and few months old, it won't get anymore Android updates. The 4.1.2 is the last. Do you really want a phone that is going to be the same all the time? I don't think so.

  • Yes! But it's affecting battery badly, because you have to have data enabled all the time.

  • IS this mobile good for gaming? If not please tell me a good xperia mobile which is dust and water proof with a price of Kshs 20,000/= (170 Euro).

  • thats your carelessness

  • don't buy this phone, USB charging pin in the phone itself can be easily damaged by regular charging, what worse is that it is UNREPAIRABLE according to Sony Technicians, I have this phone until the charging pin was broken, it is under warranty, but they voided it, their reason is because there is a small crack in its casing which it accidentally falls off my hand before, but my phone is still ok after that, until one day when I was charging, I saw that battery is full already, so I unplugged the USB from the mini USB port of the phone, after that it won't charge anymore, so the charging pin was very sensitive so after multiple times of charging, it will be broken in the future for sure.. this is a warning to all, dont take the risk

  • hi does this phone support watsapp ?

  • hi guys. plz tell me your data cable model number of your xperia go. i m thinking I was given a wrong data cable by sony. so plz tell me guys. pl�zzzzzz

  • hey. can anyone tell me what is the model number of your xperia go's datacable. i m think I had been given a wrong data cable by sony. plz. tell me guys.

  • xperia go or htc desire v?

  • I'm using XGo for 3 months. realised about one thing... apps just starts running by themself, even on stanby mode Testes a lot of battery saving apps... none is good Then I tried something - NOT A SINGLE APP RUNNING AT ALL So just installed Mobile Care and Clean Master... Killing task like twice a day and everynight before going to bed... I got it 6 days in a row calling texting surfing and gaming... Turn Off Wifi and 3G when not needed. "Apps are apps" anyway so just dont use them... not even those called "battery sabver" apps ;) Regards

  • YOU can not download AnY UPS an SD-CARD, downloads are only done on board, on the phone only.

  • Dears, I'm using it now with JellyBean. But the leds aren't working with missed calls and sms, the strange thing they are working while the mobile is under charging. Does any one face this ?!

  • I'm using it now with JellyBean. But the leds aren't working with missed calls and sms, the strange thing they are working while the mobile is under charging. Does any one face this ?!

  • Dears, please i want to know how long the battery of this phone stays for normal use in JellyBean while installing some battery saving apps. Thanks

  • great phone ..

  • I'm using Xperia go for a year now it's a very nice phone I've had problems with phone software when I upgraded to ICS now I upgraded it again to jelly bean and all the lag and software problem got solved, I dropped it to countless amount of time and I also use to wash it every week had no problem till now.... My advice is even though it's a rugged phone please put on some case to avoid damaging the flaps that covers the headphone Jack and usb.

  • Does it come with a micro SD in the box?

  • does this phone have a VIDEO call

  • well i must sae this fon is great to use u wldnt regret a thing if u buy this its fast ,user frndly u ken do anythin u wnt with this machine....u go fo t

  • IM 13 and im waitin for it to get delivered but they say its good

  • Hello, I was using Go in the last 6 month. If the phone is frozen press and hold the "power on" and "volume up" buttons at the same time. After a few second the phone will vibrate once. It means phone restarting. If you press the buttons for a longer time, it will vibrate three times. It means the phone will turn off. In my case the GPS works well all the time. Without any network connection it takes more time to catch the signal. It takes 4-5 minutes. (With network it takes 1-2 minutes.) I've noticed that it get the signal faster if I hold the phone vertically. The camera worked allways. I've the "Camera is not available" only if a different camrea SW was running in the background/frozen or if the flashlight was on. (If you switch on the light you can hear that the camera is clicking. So it is absolutely in use, despite you can not see the live image.) To summarise the things I'm statisfied with this phone. I've used some different smartphones (Samsung Galaxy Y, Motorola DEFY, DEFY+) and this is the most relieable, battery life is quiet good also. The only thing that Viber drains the battery very much. (It consumes the battery in 3-4 hours.) I had to uninstall it.

  • poor display resolution. battery backup average on internet. while playing movies battery goes down quickly. eat battery on standby too. camera slow. water resistant cool but after 4 or 5 months usb and earphone jacks loosen. but performance still good some time touch feel damn. brightness good. happy wid internal storage 4 gb. i love Sony. but poor service center in jharkhand jamshedpur.

  • Im using experia go for 3 days now.... so far im contented with the features though i consider it as a man's cp.. its a user friendly with a reasonable price but with an uncompromise program and look! a best buy!

  • xperia go or sola? i need ur opnions thnxx

  • no its not a good phone its a complete waste of money i bought it as a usefull resistable phone and in 6 months 3 drops 100 scratches broken parts etc..

  • Hi i want to buy a sony experia go ... Is it a good phone or not??

  • lot of app running. install clean master or mobile care. kill tasks once or twice a day, and everynight before sleep. i ve my battery almost 3 days always... sometimes it gets me 4 days

  • i hv this phone for 2weeks, it freeze for at least 8hours i cnt blv it and pity i cnt remove btry, i start to regret with this device,

  • How to transfer or install apps in sd card ? I am in android 4.1.2 now. Thanks in advance..

  • 1. GPS works only when connected to internet which makes it useless for sports tracking software and using GPS in places with weak on/off network. 2. Camera works around 40% of the time. Very often just shows "Camera not available" or just a black screen. Upgrade to ICS helped for first month or so and it began again - almost every photo needs restart. 3. USB cover connected to phone with some sort of weak plastic thingy that easily breaks and if cover gets lost makes waterproofeness a historical fact. 4. New joke from yesterday. Just freezing with not a single button working that leaves waiting for battery to dry out the only way to get it back to life as the battery can't be taken out. Looks good though :) But generally I feel very let down by Sony's week software and build quality for this specific model - I guess Xcover 2 should replace it just after 6 month of usage.

  • Really hard to say. J's display is better and bigger, but Go's processor is much better. I think that J is slower, but I haven't used it, so it's hard to say. You should decide what you want from phone and than decide which phone is more suitable for you. Of course, read a lot of reviews, see which are the most common problems. I think that every Xperia budget phone has its problems, because they don't have the best specs.

  • Well, they both seem to have the same specs, just Sola's display is a bit bigger and better. But it isn't waterproof. I think you should read a lot of comments about both phones, mostly about the problems and the decide which phone is better for you. For me Go is really suitable, yes, even after JB update phone sometimes freezes, but remember, Sola has bigger display and is 3 grams lighter then Go, so it might be a bit slower than Go. But anyway - read some reviews and make your decision! :)

  • same experience here, thanks for sharing! :D it may not the best phone in the world, but it does the job very well for everyday usage

  • this happens after the jelly bean 4.1.2 update. it's an os bug as it also happens with other xperia units that recently updated with the same. a temporary solution is to go to apps and go to album and clear all data. hope that helps until sony decides to release a permanent fix.

  • what is the battery life since it is not removable?

  • nothing showing in album only black screen pls somebody hlp

  • I have had this phone for some time. At first I have to say why am i disappointed. 1. I has no camera button, you can only snap pictures by pressing on the screen. 2. Although it has something called xLoud, while listening to the music it's not what I would call loud. 3. The battery life is not good. I have to charge it every day. But you can save energy using some apps, removing unnecessary things, not using animations, disabling some features. Then it's all good! 4. When I bought it, it had ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0...something), and it was really laggy. Sometimes I had to wait 10 seconds before an app opened. BUT not anymore... And now the good stuff- 1. Camera is good. In daylight. Pictures are really good. Indoors it's also nice, but in dark places not so good, but still, what can you expect from 5Mpx camera? 2. New update to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 (or just Android 4.1.2, don't even know) is the best. I mean - the phone is ten times faster. No lags. New interface is amazing. I am really happy that I found this update. Believe me, it is waaaaaay better than 2.0 or 4.0, because the phone, as far as I know, originally came with Gingerbread. 3. It's water resistant. How cool is that? Of course, I am not putting it in the water just to see what happens, but it is nice to be sure, that if something happens, the phone will survive. 4. The display is so good. All the colors look amazing, they are deep, so the image is much better looking. And in the sun, at first I thought, that I can't see a thing, but the I changed the brightness to MAX, and I have to admit, I was impressed. Everything was clear and beautiful, just like using the phone indoors! 5. It's Android, so there are A LOT of apps you can download and enjoy. Before I bought this phone, I had BlackBerry Bold 9700, so this is something really different, and I am enjoying it! Overall the phone is good. I like it. Of course, with 4.1.2 . But with this price tag and dual core 1Ghz processor this phone is amazing. And you should remember - just because it's water, dust proof and scratch resistant, you shouldn't give it a hard time. It's still a piece of tech that can easily brake and shatter. But I am definitely satisfied. And I recommend it. And if you have and questions, post them, I will try to answer, because I know, that buying a phone without any information is like buying a cat in a bag. :D

  • 1st why my ram written 300mb and my handphone havea slow loading..

  • this whitey of mine is so cool. my problem is wth its battery is there smthng tht cn b do about it?

  • to increase the battery life span, you have to switch off/ dim the light when you are in dim place like inside the house.

  • well my xperia go. i used it in salt water for 3 days, whole days and nothing happen its still working just dont forgot to wash it in fresh water yeah yeah thumbs up. ultimate outdoor phone using gingerbread version.

  • I have a problem while dialing with my phone, it seems I can' t call unless it is registred in my contacts and after getting to view contact then call, if I only type the number and press yes, the number disappears, can anyone help me?

  • After 8 months of use, my phone accidentally fell out of the pocket to the concrete floor and the display cracked - one big horizontal crack across display. Phone and display still works, but haha...do not believe people watching ads that Xperia GO is shock resistant (IP 67) Against water, dust, scratches, maybe he is, but not for hard knocks and falls.

  • hey smart guy, i am also checking more over a 2 month. some says it is good... and some says it is bad. I also don't know what to do... listen one thing every thing has pros & cons. And one thing dont belive shopkeeper they only try mistakes you...

  • For the first time use your phone's GPRS to register your number with whatsapp,later on you can switch to wifi

  • you shouldnt have soaked it for more than 20seconds, it is not a flossing feature it is a safety feature!

  • 1. make sure you close the headset port and usb port carefully 2. put it in the water, not a salt water or hot water. maximum depth is 1 meter 3. read the user manual sheet carefully

  • read your manual book, it is not to be used in sea water (salt water). it is your mistake then. IP67 is based on freshwater measurement

  • Soak in the seawater for 5mins, within 1meter deep, got wet.and the service say Void warranty, because it got wet. They didnt warrant their "IP67" rating. Now myphone remain unuseable. Ill bring it in the shop, i can be boot but got bootloop, i can be charge, the led is still turning on. when they return it, not charging, no leds lights, not booting. and void warranty.

  • i am trying to connect whats app but i got msge of unable to connect.please chck tht u r connected to internet, i try to reboot i am using wifi and data, pls help

  • True that tell them....1 Gig of ram will do

  • mine too

  • my oh my what a handset I HAVE` actually In can do anything and everything I WANT with this phone thumbsupp SONY.........

  • You can't get these from XGo: 1. Too much HD gaming 2. Full HD videos and Hi-res screen 3. Super fast processing 4. Great battery life Instead, you will get this: 1. IP67 dustproof, and waterproof (up to 1m) 2. Compact handset 3. Good audio quality, at least, good. 4. Smooth for casual usage 5. 720p video recording and playback what you need to do to make this a better phone: 1. If you like gingerbread, then stay 2. Jelly Bean update brings some good improvements including smoother video playback 3. ICS is no good, better stay in GB or update to JB 4. Use STAMINA mode to improve battery life, and select apps that you want it to run in background, such as Whatsapp, Line, GMail or anything you need 5. Install only apps that you need 6. Don't compare with flagship model phones

  • How to keep the phone waterproof: 1. Ensure the USB slot cap is closed properly 2. Ensure the 3.5mm headset cap is closed properly 3. DO NOT put your phone more than 1 meter water depth, maximum depth is 1m Please read carefully the spec and user manual BEFORE YOU PUT IN THE WATER

  • I'm in Indonesia. You can download the JB from here and flash it with Flashtool

  • Restore it...

  • Honestly saying, Don't buy this phone. The phone was smooth in Gingerbread, after updating to ICS was lagging too much, after updating to JB, still lagging sometimes. Temple run 2 can't play smooth. lagging too much. Battery back up- I am using only wi-fi without sim card and in aeroplane mode. Drop down from 100% to 65% in 2 hrs with continuous internet using without stop. During call dial I have to wait for 5 sec then call will start. Buy if gingerbread system is available. ohetherwise forget.

  • no problems at all with mine, great sony phone :)

  • how long does the battery last

  • Ths phone is not good, no proper service center, no battery back up, it always hangs, everyday i To switch on off for more thn five times a day, not a good smart phone to buy

  • I'm in india... its shows only ICS not JB... i need JB... when are they gonna launch JB for xperia go in india ?

  • when is jelly bean update in india ?

  • it is in dual core

  • no need to install anything..just go to setting and sets how many running background apps do you want to let the phone have

  • use flash toll . can do with

  • How to update xperia go from gingerbread to jelly bean?

  • i already use for six month. I think Jelly Bean is better than ICS in this phone. This phone still waterproof. I think to make the waterproof last longer, try to open and closed the micro usb lid and 3.5mm jack lid properly and carefully to avoid the lid loose.

  • Sony Xperia Go is upgradeable to Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) via Sony PC Companion. The UI is smoother with almost 60% resemblance to Sony Xperia Z's UI.

  • Install deep sleep battery saver, if you turn off the screen of your phone running apps will be autokilled to stop draining so much battery

  • no its not normal cause i have it and it works good

  • why is it that even if im not using the phone the battery discharges big time? is this normal? pls answer..

  • 165 ppi pixel density??? Nheiii... Does not convince me...

  • Ummmm dude RAM is hardware, that cannot be upgraded on phones, this one is stuck with 512MB.

  • yep.evrything just fine except 512mb ram.hope will be upgrade to 1gb :D

  • I got new one yesterday, and it was not updated. I got it in mumbai.

  • anyone @sony mobile...please upgrade this phone with dual-core, 1 GB RAM and leave the rest as it is...pleeease...

  • not a real waterproof camera.mine just got sokaed for a while.cannot open already,brought at the sevice center,they told me they cannot repair even with warranty.never ever buy again a sony product.

  • LOL :DD it works,even i have made few videos under water. :D

  • how to update jeey bean

  • It can upgrade to jelly bean.

  • i always submerge my phone in water and even on salt water in beach and i can say it really water proof its supper tough. and I'm using gingerbread cos the phone is much stable and application and games run fast in gb. the camera also shot fast, really fast. enjoy your phone using gingerbread. and don't say its not water proof don't be ignorant. cos ignorant say its not water proof maybe you don't know how to use the phone.

  • there is no pause option in vedio capture..!!!:@

  • I was looking forward to 6.2.A.1.100 update that came today. And NO, PERFORMANCE HAS NOT IMPROVED BY A BIT. It is still the laggyest phone I ever had. Xperia Active with same resolution, only one core and less memory works A LOT FASTER with same OS version. It was impressively fast on gingerbread, but is simply tragic with ICS and JB.

  • never submerge it to water. water resistance doesn't work

  • hey guyz, the 4.1.2 jelly bean update is released for sony xperia go, now enjoy more features of jelly bean in this phone

  • One of my friends lost it about 1500 m above ground while skydivig. Guess what...it survived :)

  • Bought the phone 4 days ago, updated to JB, works well with everyday usage. Handy and compact, plus waterproof and dustproof (already tested and it did work for me) Please, Think! Don't expect Xperia Z features on this phone, it's not apple to apple. Posting Rules of GSM Arena, number 2: Use common sense

  • Update JB cant cope up with the xperia go its kinda laggy and im having many problems it hangs when im answering a call and many more. I miss gingerbread that works fine. :-/

  • soooo

  • JellyBean Update released . please update the detail

  • the phone work fine! battery is mid-range good. design is perfect, but only black. full waterproof.

  • have benn using this phone. average phone,cam works fine but dark shots at night even at night scene mode. The only draw back is the front cam >,

  • i've used this phone for past one month!!! and, all i can say is that, this mobile is damn slow and u cant believe this mobile has dual core processor, i havent rooted it, but, this phone doesnt even support most of top developers games such as glu, gameloft, EA games etc think wise, and dont use this phone, its not worth for 14k!

  • I would just like to say, that some of the people that post their opinions about the Sony Xperia Go, should go back to school and learn to spell, if you can afford this phone then I'm sure you can afford a dictionary

  • my husband gave this phone to me as a gift, and i really love it... but is there really no frontal camera on this unit? therefore we can't use skype?

  • this is a great phone! you should know how to use it for you to discover what it offers.i give it a rating of 9 out 10.i tested it to the fullest and it works amazingly.so GO for it.i have it.

  • I bought this phone im from macedonia , its a great phone and water resistant i proved it , those who commented its not , maybe you had the Earphones cover open , when u open it u see a message on the phone who says , your cover is up and will se a message -please close the external connectors tos ecure water resistance - i guess u left it open and water enters the phone - anyway phone is great

  • I have this phone and its full of bugs. I've returned it twice for repair. I'm getting it replaced on Monday with another Xperia Go. I'm not holding out any hope for the new one either. I doubt sony fixed anything with newer models. DO NOT BUT THIS PHONE

  • Its suposed to be so strong but mine fell on the floor and my screen craacked

  • How about xperia go sound quality in headphone.Either xperia u ang go. who is better

  • its the best phone i have ever has was away fishing last week and went in the loch with the phone in my waiders phone works perfect when i came out of lock the phone being waterproof is well good i cannot fault this phoen

  • lol noone says its shatter proof

  • The Sony Xperia Go is not shatter proof and costs a lot to repair i would not recommed this phone at all.

  • take the HTC,

  • Don't buy one! You'll regret later. Initially the phone works well but with time its unexpectedly gets hung in between. There's terrible time lag on opening phone's basic features like 'Phone' 'Contacts' and games like 'Temple Run' and its later versions don't work well. The Xperia Home gives a premium feel to the phone. The Jellybean update is pretty good and adds some decent features to the phone. The stability too has increased a bit but its still not up to the mark. So the final verdict is on the downside.

  • Which is the best phone among Xperia Go and HTC desire x .... Plz give an idea for my confusion friends ...

  • Which is the best phone among Xperia Go and HTC desire x .... Plz give an idea for my confusion friends ...

  • xperia sola

  • of course xperia Sola my friend... I used'em both and there is a huge difference and Sola is better tha U in many ways (specs and Design..).

  • Yes

  • Hi, am planning to buy the Xperia go! Am i doing the right choice?

  • Please suggest me the good 1.....xperia u or xperia sola.....

  • please suggest me, how dis phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!fridzs

  • The ST27i has no front view camera.Whats the use of Skype on the device?????

  • @malaysian girl it's not submersible. only immersible. read instructions :)

  • Sony xperia Go

  • It only differs on the phone's network the A is using 850Mhz / 1900 Mhz for GSM while I is using 900Mhz / 1800 Mhz for GSM But both have 3G (CDMA)

  • Thank you bro. :)

  • @ fariha - ok, if you feel that 8 GB is not enough then you can also look out for xperia j and xperia sola both have almost same price range but none of the two is water resistant... At this price range you can't have everything in one device .. you have to make a compromise somewhere and by looking down towards your requirements you can make a smart choice. I am listing here drawbacks of 5 phones of the same price range. You need to make a smart choice. xperia Go - having low ppi (180) otherwise phone is good. xperia u - no expendable memory slot. xperia j - everything is good except that it has a single core processor. xperia sola - a good one but unlike go its not water resistant. So check its reviews if you find it good then sola is also a good option... I bought motorola defy+ after watching all its competitors. Its a good phone and I am totally satisfied with its overall quality but sometimes it feels a bit slow due to its single core processor otherwise phone is excellent with very good screen quality. I bought it for 11500 Rs 3 months back. hope you find this post helpful.

  • whaat is the diff btn sony xperia go of ST27i & ST27a?

  • when I bought the phone sony xperia GO, they say mobile phones can be in the water, but when I enter the water he can not continue to work at all. What is this? I suit if it's good!

  • @ fariha - ohk xperia u hasn't got any card slot ... its a huge drawback actually. card slot is needed a lot sometimes to free your internal memory and frankly speakin I don't feel that 4 GB of internal memory will be enough. SO look for a better option at almost same price range - xperia j.

  • @ fariha - At this price tag u can't expect to have everything in one device but for sure you can make a smart choice by looking down towards your requirements so that the gadget must satisfy you. 4GB of internal memory is quite good if you install apps that you actually require and not those which are needless. In fact defy plus that i am using has just a 2 GB of internal memory but haven't faced any memory issue yet because I've installed most of the apps in memory card. (Not every app can be installed in memory card, it depends on app). I am kind of person who utilizes his gadgets at its full. So if you feel that you also want to make best use of your gadget then love it and don't put too much pressure on it by installing too many apps. Moreover xperia u is a good option if you like the design. From my side - it has no memory issues but its better if you'll ask some xperia U user. I bought defy at a very affordable tag of - 11500 Rs. So at this price I can expect it to get a bit slow sometimes but it has totally satisfied me with its overall performance. and may be that's because before buying it I inquired about the device for a looong time. So I would say before buying any device you just ask some user for drawbacks of the device.

  • But the xperia u has also got disadvantages....for eg.-the memory restriction....it has 4gb of internal memory and that's it ( non - expandable)

  • Xperia u doesn't have any card slot. Will I face problem for its low memory?? Will u plz tell me the price of motorola defy plus??

  • @ fariha - better option would be xperia U because of its screen quality... 280 PPi means a very lively screen resolution as compared with go's 165 (pixels per inch). But if you are looking for a water resistant phone then you know the option. but with non removable battery of go sometimes user faces problems. and lastly dimensions of xperia go are not handy if screen size is taken into account so i would recommend xperia U. Its a better phone at this price. and if you are looking for a water resistant dust proof and scratch resistant gadget then check for motorola defy plus ( definitely a good one in terms of built quality and user experience. here is the link. -

  • Hello, I'm only 17 yrs old n wanna use a smartphone. Plz guys help me. . . Which one is better sony xperia u or xperia go??

  • Screen resolution is not up to the mark at this price ... only 180 ppi (pixels per inch) moreover battery can't be removed. and dimensions as per the screen size are too big. when you are lying on bed sometimes you are forced to use the other hand. Definitely defy plus is a better option. having a 3.7 inch screen with smaller dimensions and with better ppi i.e - 265 pixels per inch. very nice phone to use. the only drawback is single core processor but doesn't lags very much . So definitely a better option.

  • I dnt knw how 2 upgrade my xperia go... any suggestion ????

  • Is the lifetime of the battery of Sony Xperia go good??? because the battery cannot be changed.. its already fixed to the phone... Is this phone a good one?? Is the battery a good one and if we use it in the correct way, will there be any problem??

  • Help I accidentally check don't ask me again so now when I unplug my charger or headset my phone didn't warn me to close my external cover what should I do :/

  • I have the xperia go mobile, but sound clarity is too bad

  • why is it my phone always hang its brand new

  • I like the layout of the keyboard. Sony has lots to choose from. You can have QWERTY in portrait and landscape mode, or a number pad in portrait. I use the QWERTY quite easily with the swype mode on for typing.

  • My mobile st27i many times mobile hang and charge can't stand im purchase on feb2013 hw to slove this problem plz my mobile no 9884106973

  • It's Android so you can have the keyboard any way you like. You can have it t9 style when Portrait and Qwerty when landscape or I have mine (on a slightly smaller phone) Qwerty for all rotations. The buttons are still larger and smarter than that of the entry level BlackBerry with physical buttons, so it's easy to press. But you can set it to the 16 buttons of t9 style

  • my ph is xperia advance st27a.will it get similar jb update of xperia go ???i am worried about it pls help

  • You can get qwerty keyboard in both. sideway and normal portrait way.

  • hi i have a problem,my phone jam then it lock.i dont know why.and how long is the vorenti?

  • hi i want to ask,i i buy the phone,how long is the volenti?

  • Please tell me anyone,how is the keyboard layout?Do you turn the phone sideways to get the full qwerty keyboard available to use or what's the setup?I can't see qwerty fitting holding the phone the right way up?

  • it cool but it camera a little poor....but still the best with jelly bean!!

  • for those having problem after update to jb. reset your phone and install again your application

  • You get app setting choose the album.application and clear data And you can get your album And goo a head

  • Hey guys my XGO is running JB nd facing the same problem of no album thumbnails but I got the old ICS version of album from one of my friend now the problem is sorted. Google that and install...

  • I will defiantly recommend you to go for the iOS, I have an iphone4 and Sony Go and I can asure you that the iOS its more reliable and stable than the android!

  • this phone is great i just upgraded my OS form ICS to Jellybean... and it can go under water more than 1m.

  • After upgrading to jellybean play cnt download anythings.it takes 15 to 18 hours to download any apps or game...

  • 4hrs 8 days? Sorry lets try this in English are you giving this phones battery a thumbs up or you are talking something else?.

  • i also have that problem, but i used astro file manager to open any of music or picture file once and it will appear at the gallery and also update the song list in the walkman~ :P

  • Graet phone love it. Onely thing I don't understand is the big hole under the cover. If someone knows what that is please tell me.

  • as i said before. with 5hrs wi-fi on. only for games (less than 1hr playing, calls and messages. I got 4 days and 8hrs.

  • After upgrade to jelly bean I cant find my pics in album. from what I read some people have same problems after upgrade to jelly bean. i tried clear the cache in memory card but still cant find my pics in album. Any solutions? maybe sony can explain??

  • More than 1 day

  • The phone was great with GB, but after upgrading to ICS and Jelly bean ma xperience has been pathetic with it. the phone lags a lot even while trying to open dialled list or contacts, forget gaming and other things. To add to it i dropped my phone on a marble and there has been a crack on ma screen which irritates me and costs 7500rs to fix it. Ma question is it supposed to break like that, based on the rugged and rigidity image they have given to the display as well as the phone ? and yea the battery sucks to the core when you use it normally or on 3G ! I am shifting to Iphone, its not been worth the money :(

  • After upgrade to jellybean my pics will not show up in album. I read in some blogs some people experience same thing. Any idea how to fix it?

  • hi jana... about the GO,.. I am very disapointed by it. okay. the good thing: i can drop it in a glass of water.. and it stil works and a lot of no-good things: first of all.. GPS is lousy! it takes more then an hour to get something of a fix but with an accuracy of 500 meters! then it keeps loosing track very frequently... so the GO is not reliable for navigating.( this phone has been brought back twice and they say it works normal!) and another thing, the touch is BAD BAD BAD!! especially at the corners the screen is not touch sensitive.. wich means you have to touch several times to get the input.. and most of the times that doesn t work either. sliding is difficult.. because of this too.. so pinching is not working fine. or sliding to a next page.. results in opening something of the middle of that page... again.. in the sony repair shop.. they could not find anything.. so I have to live with it... and another thing.. it comes with lots of preinstalled apps.. witch you will never use... Me not.. you not.. nobody not!!! but it is eating space ok.. I am not an apple fan.. but surely a sony GO is definitly not worth the money! unless you want to throw it in the water!

  • Its says scratch proof glass...but what the heck!!! I just got my glass scratched...Is the quality of materials different from where country it was made? I bought mine here in the Philippines and i guess they are delivering defective products here...In which country does sony manufacture quality made products?

  • Yes you can as long as you flash through flashtool with the Jellybean ftf file

  • how long does the battery of this phone stay for normal use?

  • Yes Sony recently released the Jelly Bean update for Xperia Go

  • mine too!

  • im still can't decide if i am going to buy an xperia go or an iphone.. Android is more high tech, but ios is best in apps,music,and movies... Pls help me decide..

  • can i update st27a to jellybean.the version of jellybean is for st27i only? please answer..

  • This is so cool, im satisfied by xperia go, perfect phone in midrange. The waterproof test was amazing, chech it out :

  • Had this phone for two months it's nice but i don't know if it's my service provider or the phone itself but running apps or dowloading apps is very very slow

  • hey.im from malaysia.i have something to ask.is JB upgrade already available at malaysia?if yes.why i didn't receive any upgrade notification?

  • Out of the Box this devices sucks!! Having ICS or JB for this device really made it very slow. However after downgrading the device to ginger bread it became awesome and fast..

  • when sony st27a jb update on air in bangladesh ?????.update service and pc companion showed already have latest update.pls help

  • uninstall your mcafee and it will be faster

  • and also when i update it to jellybean and download subway surfer the game and phone lag

  • after i update ics to jb it makes my phone lag

  • what about camera?

  • Hi all, how to update Xperia go to jelly bean, please help

  • i have used my phone for 2 weeks i dropped it from\ the fire truck and the phone auto automatically it will shot down

  • i noticed a lot of you guys are complaining about the phone being laggish.i also experienced the same. i think, what makes it lag is the preinstalled mcafee antivirus when u updated it to ice cream sandwich. i deleted the app and my phone works faster and the battery is also axtended. the RAM available when the phone is running also became bigger, from 100mb-120mb to 150-190mb. now, i can play Nun attack and subway surf without any problems.

  • hey guys i'm using it for 2 weeks. best phone ever. i got batery life for more than 4 days (only 5hours wi-fi on)... 4 days on standby just for messages, calls and games. keep it on gb. it's like windows xp, while ics and jb are like windows vista. seriously we need android 5.0 like windows 7. till then keep using gb. ics and jb not worth for xgo.

  • Used this phone for 2 months. Not actually bought by me but it was bought by my room mate but i used it a lot and its actually a very good phone and also looks good but wanna share sumthin imp with those who are buying it - Do consider motorola defy plus also before bying bcoz both the phones are water resistant. both look good. But both have some pros and cons over each other - the differences - 1) Go has a better processor and doesn't lags at at all... works very smooth as compared to defy + 2) Defy + has better screen quality 265 ppi that makes its screen to look very alive as compared to Go. 3) Sony has better services in India so again defy plus lags behind. 4) But again if dimensions are taken into account then you'll notice that defy + is much smaller and can be handed and operated easily by one hand. Even though smaller in size it has bigger screen. I was also very confused among the two. Main confusion arises due to brand value in India bcoz motorola has left off this country. So the question is for services. Finally after thinkin a lot i bought defy plus. No doubt a very good phone xcept the fact that it has a single core processor and works slower than xperia Go. No regrets on decision but i also know that there is no prob with the other one too... both the phones are very very good at this price...

  • im also from the philippines but i can't update my xperia go to jellybean, when i do,its says that i already have the lastest sofware. how did u update it to jelly bean?

  • After jelly bean update, camera quality of my xperia go falls heaven to hell..... when it was in GB, camera was smooth and good quality in lowligh... Now worst in lowligh. I think it is common for all Xperia phones under JB..

  • xperia go is applicable for jellybeans!!??

  • hai guys , iam using this hand set for almost 3 months,it is the best one with out doubt ..yaa its true it has max water resistant i have tested plenty times as demos for others , but the camera is lit bit laggy ,and the speed is descent ,over all it s superb..... my choice is go .....

  • This is a great phone, you will always feel happy with it :) most wonderful feature is 'Water proof' and its CPU and GPU, very powerful. Only cons is, its RAM, but still, works very find and no front camera, which actually barely use by us:) This phone worth to spending money on it. I am loving it

  • guys who actually have a sony xperia go, im looking into buying one for myself and i would like to know is it worth spending money on?

  • i jst updated it to Jellybean here in the Philippines. and it runs lightning fast!! superb! kudos Sony

  • I'm due for an upgrade and I'm looking for someone to topple the scale either into me getting the Xperia or not.Have had a BB for the last two years and have been very happy with it,to some it might not be a big issue as to what phone to take but it is for me and the Xperia is one of the more decent looking phones in the price range I am looking at.I know Sony make good electric products but I know nothing about their phones,in fact,I have never seen one while its in action.I want to get the Xperia Go but I read that the resolution isn't that great by todays standards,half of the other things about the phone I didn't really understand.I am an avid gamer,not to say I'm looking for a phone to play only games on,but I know about graphics and picture clarity as well as sound and I don't want to be disappointed.Could someone please give me some feedback.

  • Dear Nik or other user, Please try this to solve that kind of problem. Go to Phone setting, Apps, All Apps, Galery or Album and then clear data and clear all cache. Done...u can see ur photo album again then. cheers. Vq

  • The speakers are CRAP both for music as well as as for calls. Display is also disappointing however the Bravia Engine does kick in while playing videos which helps. So if Display and Sound are weighing heavily on your mind look for some other phone. If your an outdoors-men like me then this phone should be fine.

  • Is upgrading to Jelly Bean solves the problem of the battery backup decreasing very soon ? or the battery performance is the same ?

  • i need to know when it will come to Egypt i'm so disappointed every country now has it expt us and yes the JB is very good go on Google and type jellybean interface on Sony xperia GO : and wach the video its suppose to be smarter and faster and iphone is trying to do the same on iphone u can now upgrade to IOS6 which comes with iphone 5 on iphone 3gs imagine, the trix in updates now i belive its not that they want to add more and more things that u have to get another mobile to handle but its the other way arround they r trying to make it softer and smoother so the user of a 1ghz and 512 ram can still run it as he dont need to pay extra 2000 pounds egy to get an s3 to fit his needs or more ots about 2800 LE to get just a galaxy s3 lol what is that its 4400 LE now so i think the xperia go is a fare example for a middle mobile phone which helps u in all ways and its exacty an IPHONE 4s but its name is sony same every thing ram rom prossesor every thing + water and dust resist but in my opinion i will stay on the ice cream sandwich untill they (sony) upload a very stable JELLY BEAN and the ICS is beautiful if ur still on Ginger bread upgrade to ICS and ull find it enormus and u will lay down to get the jelly bean after a while until sony test its on the xGO and see if it fits or fix some bugs as google itself do with is applications

  • When I plugged in my headphones to Xperia Go (Jelly Bean 4.1.2) to listen to music, I almost damaged my hearing because the volume was at max. It was too loud. On my LG Nexus 4, whenever I plugged in the headphones, the volume automatically adjust to about 40%. This is something very basic and I'm disappointed Xperia Go Jelly Bean update didn't add in this feature to attenuate the volume whenever the headphones are plugged in to the device.

  • Even after upgrading to Jelly Bean on my Xperia Go, the touchscreen is very unresponsive. Many times, my swipe is wrongly registered as a tap. When I swipe on the screen, the items do not move, instead, it goes into the app on the screen as if I tap on it, but I didn't TAP, I was SWIPING! Also, when I type fast on the onscreen keyboard, many letters are missing. The touchscreen doesn't respond in time to my typing. Often when I tap and swipe on the screen, there is no response at all. Anyone else having this issue?
