Sony Xperia ion LTE - User Reviews

  • nope. only usa at&t.

  • my first android sony phone

  • It is support for ind jio 4g. Network

  • Then you haven't seen any new phones.

  • Reliance gio sim work in lte or not

  • 4G mobile network SIM several days I can not think I would be on the network by Sony xperia lt28at Fols lte network would be useless .If you have several Suchhav would be great if the network brought Jaae

  • sony ion is a best mobile phone.

  • Dont belame sony. I have been using sony since 2005. Till now no problem at all. If u want to have a better performance result use Sony xperia M2, M4, M5, T2. For normal use Ion is good. And battery will discharge quickly because of social media. Remember when this phone came to market no whatsapp is there. And people use pc for social networking and watching video. By the way your using absolute model in new era. Go and grab one of the latest from sony xperia. You will be amazed at the outcome.

  • Am avenging problem on my phone not connecting to usb wat can I do?

  • Worst phone as i ever used third class battery backup, got super hot instance, again n again camera lens got dislocate, if use continuously more than half an hour phone got hang my advice never buy any material from Sony again

  • Why i cant download games on my experia z5 premium

  • It doesnt support some apps and games but very useful most thing I admired is notification light

  • Not good elsewhere except it's camera but why restarting several times?

  • i have been using this phone from 3 years after 2 years this became a beat slow but its un breakable this phone fell down from 3rd floor but it didn,t broke.

  • I have been using xperia Ion since Jan 2013. I fully contradict the claim of manufacturer of using a scratch resistant glass in this phone.

  • I have used Xperia Ion Since 2.5 years (August 2012), This is the best phone ever, Bought it at Rs21,500/- . Totally Worth it. By the time and age factors after 2 years it got a bit slow, but it's unbreakable, with a perfect curve at the back to slide in to the pocket. High security.

  • why xperia ion can not update to 4.3 jelly bean....plese help me....I WANT TO KNOW HOW UPDATE IT TO 4.3 ...OS

  • I have used my Xperia Ion LTE for exactly 3 years (October 2012) and just recently upgraded to Samsung Galaxy Note 4 last week and I would say I'm definitely happy on the phone I got now. I have had negative experience with my Xperia. Exactly just over a year of usage, my microphone failed so everytime i make a call, i need to use a headset. It is common to experience crash while using apps all of a sudden like instagram, facebook, youtube etc. Then everything seems to function fine until just a couple of months ago I noticed the issue with battery. It gets really hot when using DATA (not wifi( I don't know why plus the battery gets drained more quickly. I understand that it probably has already deteriorated. If I have overcharged the battery, it's definitely less than 10 times. But that's it. I don't know if I will be able to trust Sony again. Maybe in the future but not right now.

  • I'm just wondering why majority of Sony Ion users who posted comments here on Gsmarena are mostly negative comments & feedbacks when my unit is running smoothly for over 3 years now though rooted but still on stock rom & installed Xposed & modules with no issues whatsoever. Probably i'm just lucky not having faulty unit or tweaked a bit of it to enhance my Sony Ion Lt28i \m/

  • i'm using Xperia ion and when I enable lte my internet connection goes. then the phone informs that emergency call only. please help me

  • I using sony ion already 3 year...it getting worst went my phone batery ben replace...

  • Worst phone ever, mine orginally started having battery issues a few month after getting it. then the mic went so i couldnt talk on the phone. got it sent in and they fixed the mic but the battery still had issues. Most recently i will be on my phone and it will randomly restart itself, it has restarted itself roughly around 12 times today. I can use it for maybe 5 minutes and then it gets super hot. This phone always freezes and lags. Worst phone every i highly recommend you dont waste your time with sony. Very dissapointed

  • Exactly!

  • Worst ever phone from Sony!!!

  • The most common problem is its battery backup it only lasts for 2 hours in 3G and camera is good but it can only click 20-25 photos and battery get low.

  • First of all am happy i got 8000rs after selling dis phone.. Though i have paid 25000rs. This is d worst phone from sony. I will never ever buy any product of sony.. Focusing problem n d ultimate problem is low battery back up. Wats d point in using this phone wen it has so many problems..

  • i am using sd card of class 10 in my xperia ion.

  • Hi! Can someone tell me what class of SDcards are supported by Xperia ion?

  • I am using this model from almost two years now and except for battery, no complaints. Sony has stopped updating this model after JB 4.1.2 but it is worth the money. ''Cymera'' fixes the focus problem which many are facing after the update. I dont really see any phone having a 12mp camera which this model had when only 8mp cameras were in trend. Respect to Sony! Love my Xperia Ion!

  • Hello guys! I'm using an At&t unlocked Sony Ion in SRI LANKA. I have a big issue that is when I select WCDMA my network doesn't work. My network works only when I select GSM. Please tell me how to fix this. Earlier I was able to use WACDMA in this phone. And now I can use internet through Wi-fi only / edge model no Lt28h running Jellybean

  • poor performance,battery camera both not working.

  • Same here,Iam also changed ion, becoz of poor perfo.

  • same with me. the temperature is to high for a smartphone. it looks like the only way left is buy a new one. i'm thinking on changing to asus zenfone 6

  • i've been sony xperia ion user for 2 years. most of it, this model performance quite poor. the camera auto-focus are not so good. the battery performance also poor especially when packet data is turned on. my phone only last for 3-4 hours with packet data and i need to charge to around 4 times a day. but it is fine with wifi. the phone is also easily get heated. sometimes could reach 40 degree Celsius (based on an battery performance apps). that's crazy until i can feel how hot my phone have been. luckily it did not burned or explode. it also lag and freeze so often until it restart on its own. sometimes i need to force restart it. the speaker also very slow even with the xLOUD enhancer but the microphone got no problem. just have a basic requirement. it is the most unworthy smartphone with its price. the only good thing about this model is the design and it charged quite fast.

  • it's great amazing loving it better than s4

  • KitKat 4.4.2 for the win!

  • Quality Cover of mobile not getting in the market.

  • brother i accepted ur cmnt.../same time sony also cheated u and me.../

  • i have the same problem.. it's better when im using 2.3..

  • nice phone but batery time is average.on video playing phone is so hot.but over all nice phone.

  • Jus after viewing the uah "battery health status" of my xperia ion and see its only 1710 means actual mah of battery. Just realized,that sony cheated on us consumers. On paper it 1,900mah now i know why the battery doesnt last a day!

  • I have the same,but now I am ashamed to tell that it has 12MP camera, bcos it does not even has 5MP clarity, I tried with 9M,5M all resolutions, but the picture clarity is not upto the expectation. I remember this happened after 4.1.2 update. I noticed, initially when I purchased the phone, its camera was awesome. Can anyone give me any clue, why its camera does not have clarify of 12M?

  • I love this phone it has a great resolution in display and camera, but I don't know other owners but mine it's like it has an Iron included because sometimes it gets too hot in the back and the battery lasts only for 3 or 4 hours i don't know this is normal, doesn't feel like normal, it's pretty disturbing.

  • hy i have xperia ion the fault is it dont show battery percentage i installed many apps for battery but it show zero percentage battery it battery is full but shows zero percentage plz sugest me that what is a prblm and how i solve the problem

  • yes i know about something you can do, look this video is very easy.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55tkPgW_-mI its just like flash any rom.

  • my Sony Xperia ion LTE's bootloader unlock allowed: No. Will I never be able to unlock it? Pleaseeeeeeee help me.

  • Guys!..to improve your battery and UI speed. root your phone and install this custom rom. This is the best so far.

  • dear friend, i never got any jellybean update so hw i can update to jelly bean?? and my phone which is 6 months old has become very much slow..and camera focusing is very slow. if u have any solutions please do reply.

  • So I have a Sony Xperia ion lte an on the lower part of my screen there is a space maybe an inch wide that will not touch not really sure what to do? Any help? I can't find anything about calibration!? I love this phone just turned a year old its been a great phone just want my touch back on that little section!

  • Ion's battery is really bad, but compare to the battery of any iphones. This is much better. I hope and i wish, that all manufacturers make a phone that has sufficient battery. instead of making slim/thin phones that dont have enough battery capacity to last even a whole day. Id rather use a thick smartphone than use a phone that is slim that will not last a day. We dont really need a slim/thin/lightweight phone. As long as it is a smartphone that has a large battery that will last atleast 2 days or more with heavy use..

  • my phone have network problem ..... signal not came to my phone give solution anybody frndz............

  • I'm using this phone from a year, I love this phone, Camera and screen are awesome, i liked it's sqaure look, yes, battery backup cud have been better. i don't have any problem till now.

  • pls Update Xperia Ion,6.2.B.0.211 Firmware problem

  • i have also camera lens problem and battery backup problem

  • Very Wrost mobile battery backup very poor and network problem means this mobile have lots of problem actually i m using very bad experience with xperia ion

  • im looking for a good one.. Ion have my needs.. Is it good.. (include batery backup)..??

  • my dear, you cannot free the rest 300+ memory. Bcs the OS has already occupied it. If u want more memory then better think of downgrading ur phone to gingerbread or froyo...

  • Had mine about a year- Pros: Durable Large screen Looks good High software + hardware specs + Android OS = Can run almost all apps you have without problems Super HD Good camera + 3D photo taking + panorama which is pretty cool Cons: Battery life is not very good Looks good but hard to find + purchase a cover Screen is easily scratched Display makes all movies look really dark and shadowy Camera auto focus doesnt work very good OS generally runs smoothly but phone can occasionally start overheating, drain battery really fast, run slowly, shutdown/open apps... I like the OS but this happens VERY OCCASIONALLY

  • i got this phone just 2 months ago and now it's not working even the phone doesnot switch on????what is the problem with this phone??is it about the software update or anything else???

  • I bought my Ion (AT&T) a year and a half ago, and have been extremely pleased with it. Very durable, the Bravia color engine is vivid, and is very responsive on Jelly Bean. For those with battery issues: -Go to the phone's "Settings" app -Scroll all the way to the bottom and select "Developer options" -Once again, scroll all the way down to the bottom until you reach the "APPS" section. 1) Under "Background process limit", select "At most 1 process". This will kill all battery-draining apps, except for the last app you opened. This will allow you to download updates when the phone is idle. 2) In the same "APPS" section, right below the above step, is "Show all ANRs". This will bring unresponsive/crashed apps to the foreground and allow you to terminate them: another battery-saving feature (should you have buggy apps).

  • yes the battery won't last this phone is garbage

  • I own the phone & i like it. Talking about the poor performance of battery then don't play games or internet, it will work well. This is a drawback of smart phone (android base) due to multi tasking nature of it

  • uncheck data connection and use 2g

  • I recently purchased the Sony Xperia LT28at mobile being unaware of its poor performance in battery.Without using any application ,with out inserting any sim just in stand by position it is lasting hardly for 10 hours.This is rediculous. I have stopped all the app features running background reduced the brightness using static wallpapers.Still it is showing same. Have seen in post that its battery lasting for a day. Can some one say how to increase its battery performance.?? or is this feature a backdrop of this mobile . ????? Thank you.

  • Any game's or app download in the play store ( due to an error 902) pls help what can I do

  • When I download anything from playstore in tatdocomo 3g it hangs and i.needs to restart it plzz help....

  • ram is low not 1gb its about 700mb approx

  • battry not good and heat up is a big problem in it.

  • Still not have the update for the jelly bean.

  • excellent phone for the price with very good performance. Phone has always worked very good for me except for two small problems although these could be because I bought it manufacturer refurbished. Firstly sometimes I will get a glitch with the screen backround so that it gets cropped or something so scrolling backrounds do not work for long before I have to reset them. Secondly when I shut off the phone it often just restarts but will always shut down properly the second time. Simple way to get around this for me was to use an app that makes my phone shut down instantly(Only works if you have root).

  • Phone is gud bt battery backup is not successful Even camera lens also create problems

  • phone is good but battery backup depressed me.....:)

  • install andriod v 2.3.7 and don,t apdate it

  • you can have games from both google play and gameloft..of course not all of them are free..besides the pre-installed ones, i also installed from gameloft- the likes of modern combat 3 & 4, asphalt 6 & 7 to name a few, and they are pretty decent games for a smartphone. if anybody ever needed better graphics than these, they should consider buying PSP or an x-box portable.. cheers

  • Hi guys. Just want to share my exp regarding xperia ion. First the screen is really good!actually me and my sister taking picture at direct sunlight. When we compare it to the screen of gs4 wc is 100%brightness, it was really dark when expose to sunlight. Whereas to my xperia ion i can see it clearly at 75-80% brightness level. Sound clarity is good. Capative buttons sometimes not responsive BUT try to SWIPE UP. It really responds quickly. One thing I really dont like about this phone is battery. It sucks right? But u know what I can suggest? To u guys who owned ion is to study how to root your phone. When you root it you can have a lot of benefits. Like battery life increase for about 50%. Try to underclock the cpu. Lower the capacity to maybe 800-1000mhz. It increases your battery life. You can try overclocking it to 1.7ghz but youll gonna experience heating problems and fast draining of battery. So compare to other updated phone right now I still picked this device. This is really a good device but u have to learn how to root it. Now i really love using my device I can use my phone at 100% brightness,haptic feedback ,100% sounds and specially i dont need to charge it twice. By the way i have manually flash the jellybean for ion.i rooted it and its snappy no lag at all. I hope this help guys. Thanks

  • hi guys if anyone has visited the ions official Sony page there is one pic for the topic 'share it all' something where menu looks very different can someone suggest how to get that menu look.

  • sorry last link was dead please try this,u can download juicedefender full for free with torrentz :d and give it a try as shown below,it worked for me,now my idle battery is awesome

  • Same here

  • Is there no solution to get rid of dis problem?....coz I have to use internet for a long time,and every time am facing dis prob.....

  • I think It would have been many people that might have this problem (the XPERIA Ion turning off itsself). It's such simple thing you have to do: - first: TURN YOUR XPERIA ION OFF. - and then: REMOVE YOUR SIM CARD (AND REMOVE ALSO YOUR SDCARD IF YOU MAY USE IT WITH) - then : REATTACH IT(THEM)BACK - final: NOW TURN YOUR XPERIA ION ON. That's it. Now you will see your XPERIA ION will work perfectly like ever.

  • Hi am samy from kolkata I bought ion 3weeks a go & am having some problems with it,its getting switch off every time while am using internet for more than half an hour....plzzz hlp me guys plzzz suggest me what shall I do...

  • Will it upgrade to JellyBean through PC companion?

  • Sony sp is best than ion

  • Yours must be unique to your phone. I've had Xperia Ion since April and so far no problem. Battery ok, if you switch off data and blue tooth - as leaving these on means may applications are active - iPhone last even less time. I suggest you get your phone checked, and in case of replacement, try elsewhere from your normal supplier.

  • Hey with surfing Google and.fb about 30 mins how ammount of battery would u lose?Itz 10 to 15 percentage for me.how about.otherz??

  • Even it i sremovable. By the time your battery fails, it will also be the end of your contract with your network carrier. Also, you probably cannot find the same battery in the market anymore when it fails because it is already outdated as battery technology keeps changing. So having removable battery is only a glimick nowdays for smart phone.Only Samsung will provide removable battery as a glimick for most people to buy their products, but never care wherther or not you can actually get the replacement battery .Just buy and use your phone until it dies then upgrade to another one after your contract. Simple is that.

  • some one told me this phone is water proof and can read mssage under the water

  • Why this mobile is having non-removable Li-Ion 1900 mAh battery which means, in case of failure of battery, there is no provision for replacing a NEW BATTERY? Please suggest as I am planning for buying this mobile.

  • Has anyone else had problems with this phone? This is my 5th replacement of this phone in less than a year. The issues are: 1. Often, apps that I am running quit right in the middle of using them. It is particularly bad when I am using GPS. This has happened on ALL of the replacements I have gotten from them. It will quit right in the middle of navigation. 2. Audio quality. I get frequent reports from my friends and family that they cannot hear me due to the sound going in and out on their end. I hear them fine. This also has happened on all of my replacements. Any Ideas? I'm at the end of my rope with this phone...

  • When will the sony xperia ion get the jelly bean in india when can i get the update

  • Xperia ion Jelly Bean firmware finally rolls out (6.2.B.0.211)

  • how to loud the ringtone

  • no. its not.

  • if sony xperia ion can be upgraded to a jelly bean?

  • xperia ion phone is very good but battery performance is very low compare the brand of sony. please do some work in battery performance.

  • How can I maximize the battery performance? There are a few things you can do to improve the battery performance. * Charge your phone often. This will not affect the lifetime of the battery. * Downloading data from the Internet is power consuming. Turn off data traffic when you�re not using the Internet. * Turn off GPS, Bluetooth� and Wi-Fi®when you�re not using them. * Synchronize your accounts manually, or increase the time between the synchronization intervals. * Check the battery usage menu to see which applications consume the most power. * Close and exit applications that you are not using. * Lower the screen brightness level. * Turn off your phone or use Airplane mode if you are in an area with no network coverage. Otherwise, your phone repeatedly scans for available networks, and this consumes power. * Switch to a wallpaper that is not a Live wallpaper. Live wallpapers consume more power. * Use a handsfree device to listen to music, instead of the phone�s loudspeakers.

I also bought this device last week and I love it, I recommend it to anybody interested in it.

  • I bought this phone last week and it is superb! there is no lag in the performance whatsoever and it is smooth! camera and video quality is superb and the same goes for the sound quality.

Its wonderful...you will be satisfied.

  • I'm using it now writing this review first off and foremost. I love this phone, it has good life , the all HD is amazing, and the sound adjustments when listening is phenomenal. It has a good processor, plenty of ram, and is one of the toughest phones I've ever owned. I have dropped it on concrete a few times, other than a micro dent nothing has broken. Highly recommend this phone.

  • see dude...i bought ion last week. And before buying it i also thought to buy LG optimus L9. L9 is actually a good phone But when price of ion dropped to 20000/- in india, i immediately bought it. Its a good phone compared to L9. In my opinion Buy ion instead L9. Ive not experienced any lag or any other problem. All the games were played quite smoothly. HD (1280*720) display, dual core snapdragon s3 processor, walkman music player all these are features of a good phone. :) buy it....!

  • i think, sony xperia ion is very comperison to samsung glaxy grand...AM I RIGHT OR WRONG ? plz suggest me

  • Which one is best Sony Xperia ION or Sony Combo SP

  • good.. tell me how to move games to external sd card?

  • which will be the best to buy, sony xperia ION or LG optimus L9 ? plz help me for right choise..

  • which will be the best to buy, sony xperia ION or LG optimus L9 ? plz help me for right choise..

  • You can move any app. including games in sony ION

  • hehe.. then no chance for me too get battery last long as I always turns on Bluetooth and pair it with Samsung sbh - 650 stereo Bluetooth headset, plays lots of games, listen to lots of music and watch lots of movies;-) I use clean master app for cleaning ram. I've heard that jelly bean update is coming for ion in the end of this month. let's hope it can help us to get better battery life:-)

  • LTE is the AT&T variate. So it has LTE built inside. But at the cost of having 5 bloatware apps that you can't get rid of unless you root the phone. The other model is the international version which does not support LTE and uses the European signal bands. The plus side it doesn't come with the carrier bloatware because its an factory unlocked phone. Besides those things the phones are the same thing.

  • Hi, I hope these tips help - lower screen brightness - shorten screen lock time - close apps not in use(I use FMR memory cleaner) - use power saver - turn off wifi, bluetooth etc when not in use **I hear JELLY BEAN update may help battery life, lets hope so. I'm new to android, so maybe there are better tips out there. Anyone thinking of getting the XPERIA SP??!!! I thinks it's great. I don't game a lot on my phone or browse a lot so dual core is good enough for me :) sooooo many new phones and processors rolling out....it's crazy. Everyone should just find a phone that soothes their needs or else you'll spend too much on new tech.

  • I think LTE is better(faster upload and download speeds) but you'll have to read about it, google search LTE vs HSPA. What should concern you now is which one your network provider uses. So if AT&T uses LTE and you use AT&T then you are better off buying an LTE phone. Cheers!

  • how is the xperia ion. is it good to buy

  • what is the difference of XPERIA ION LTE and XPERIA ION HSPA? which one is better?

  • So I've had my Xperia Ion for about 6 months now. I find it pretty user friendly, but coming from a dumb phone it has a whole lot of features that I just don't use. Not that it's a bad thing. I love the video quality and screen clarity on the Ion. Plus it plugs straight in to my TVs and laptops which are all Sony. I put a Ballistic case on it, and I highly recommend that. I'm a mechanic and my phone falls out of pockets on my overalls all the time. Just bounces. No drama. Screen protector too. No issues at all. Battery life is 1.5 days....if you aren't watching video or playing music. Otherwise it's about a day...just plug in before bed.

  • are you sure battery life is 1.5 day?

  • Good

  • I have this phone and overall I am pleased. The camera is excellent...very fast, good quality, and easy to send pics to other emails, cells, etc. The biggest issue is why didnt SONY make this with a removeable battery? Would be nice to have an extra battery on hand fully charged. The voice text is fantastic.....when it works, which is about half the time. Overall pretty impressive technology.

  • In this Handset Avalible Call Conference Service ?

  • check out it on ebay.com...available at 19300

  • this was my best phone till now. phone is great!

  • i can rate the battery life 8 out of 10 .. it has longer battery life compared to galaxy phones.. when u play music for 2 hrs straight, only 15-25% of battery is used.. so its a thumbs up for me.. and the android system is now in ice cream sandwich. (4.0.4) .. so go ahead this buy this phone.. its a great one to have ! :)

  • May be your problem will be solved if you update your software to ICS 4.0.4 instead of 2.3.7

  • battery worst....over heat production...initially cam was good then clarity gets problem....hanging problem also there... I was being frustrated by spent 30k and got problems.......

  • Its an awesome phone, which has advanced front end operation. It really amazing for approaching for entertainment and for developer platform too. I suggest for the sony lovers to finalize this one as your permanent handset. This features are in high end compared with iphone. Better in user-friendly, battery, low radiation, picture clarity and sense of touch. Fantastic experience...... Continues

  • better wait for sony xperia z guys, itzz coming with fully loaded features.. ion is no where in front of Z.. I'm waiting for release.. It's releasing on FEB 28th..

  • Okay I own and love my Xperia ion LTE it is one the best smartphones I have ever owned. That being said I went a bought the TL also when it came out and had my own little camera test to see if the TL with its 13MP can out shoot my ion with its 12MP. So after setting both phones to their default settings I found out that my ion not only took pictures faster compared to my new TL it also took better quality pictures. I guess the just because a new phone came out with more mega pixels, doesn't mean it's a better camera.

  • i see the specs btw xperia ion and xperia t , basiclly ond papers are for closely the same ion Dual-core 1.5 GHz xperia T Dual-core 1.5 GHz Krait ion Adreno 220 - xperia T Adreno 225 ion Qualcomm MSM8260 Snapdragon - xperia T Qualcomm MSM8260A Snapdragon my question in fact is ... how much difference twx speed and funcions , are very noticiable thnx hope some can give me and idea of that ... sry bout my english

  • by the way, is ion support lte or 4g service?

  • why say so?i look at the specification, it looks almost the same, only that ion canot put in the water...the price for ion is slightly cheaper here..

  • cant play 1080 hd?i saw the phone specification show can it can play..?

  • I think s2 is much more better,this experia ion cannot play a 1080p HD video

  • what the diffrance bettwen ion &xperia S

  • It looks good but s is supposed to be the best

  • I am using this phone since, three months. And i do not understand why there are not very high reviews!!! Before buying it, i was worried of choosing or not. but now I see, it is a great device!

  • i want 2 buy this or galaxy s2 wich one is better?

  • It's a nice device bt..it's battery so poor...can i change battery...?

  • Does this phone Video call fascillity ? ( Not skype video call )

  • im about to buy acro s, but then sudenly saw the information about ion. actually i thought ion is android 2.3 gingerbread,but someone told me his phone is 4.0.4. can someone clarify me?thanks alot..

  • can i make skype vedio call with this phone.if it is in android os 2.3

  • bought this one today . I have used xperia x8 before.I guess the loud speaker volume is low for ION when compared to other xperia series phones. also the loud speaker becomes noisy when we increase the volume levels. is it the sane for every one here ? thanks

  • Machan superb nice look and super structure........all quality and appls are sama superb..... I was smashed after seeing this....

  • Where yr buy

  • If in Malaysia, the price is about rm1400.... It is a not sure.... Hope this helps...

  • what it cost can any one tell me????????

  • Yup. Mine did. Works like a charm on my panny 50st30

  • Now i've own a xperia ion lt28h with no LTE, the shoppers did'nt tell me about that.. And issit xperia ion with lte have the HDMI cable in the box? what am i going to do, i bought it because of its lte, if not i rather buy a xperia acro s, its feel like im being fooled/cheated....

  • Did xperia ion LT28i had HDMI cable in the box?

  • Your standard sim card will be cut to mini sim by the seller, free of charge,and will give you an adaptor in case you wanted to use it again in its original size.

  • mini sim is our standard sim, then the copper one on it was the micro sim so if you want to use it on micro sim phone request to cut it on network operator

  • Guys, i'm planning to get this phone, but i keep on seeing the word "mini-sim", here in the philippines, we only use the standard sim card, is it possible for me to use xperia here or should i pick another phone? Thanks in advance

  • It don`t use gorrila glass because it produces his own mineral glass that has the same properties

  • yes u can see all pinku movies dinku

  • Why can't use Sony c orning gorilla glass?

  • Why can't use Sony morning gorilla glass?

  • in specs there isn't mentioned the Divx or Xvid, so is it possible to play that kind of movies or not? thanks for reply and happy new year 2013

  • I'm using xperia ion n xperia s.. Comparatively ion is better. . Drawback in ion is phn speakers for attending call is very low. You can't hear anything in traffics in India.. Phone gets damn heat if yo continuously play game for half n hour.. Worst case is you need to carry d charger with you coz it never last even 12 hours even in stand by mode.. The plus is camera better thn xperia s. Xperia s looks lyk over saturated but looks very natural in ion. better in watching video. Look great in hand.. Fast net.. With ics 4 this phone s awesome.. Remember it's a 4g phn Wer Xperia s s still 3g.

  • I hope they would put in Xenon flash. That's the only thing lacking from this phone (aside from the removable battery, of course).

  • perfect cell phone , camera is excellent, color superf because of sony engine bravia,and with fm radio plus hdmi port connection to tv.

  • For when a Sony mobile with xenon flash, led for video and with Android operation system? Like the Sony Ericsson Satio (Idou)?

  • 30,000/= Taka

  • Now i am using xperia ion LTE for 3 weeks now and should say i wan't live without it. You should tweak the phone with 'power server' software built in to get the maxium life for the battery.

  • the ion is the newer version of the s but they are almost the same. the s is better for developers because it has been around longer and has more support. I have the ion rooted running ics and I have no problems with it other than the camera being noisy in the dark. It takes amazing pictures in the light though

  • is there any other phone related to this!

  • Xperia s is as fast as ion and camera is in both models the same.

  • How to solve the hanging problem?

  • I purchased this phone about 4 months ago. It has been a good phone in media and taking pics. It is very clear up until about a month ago I started seeing conflicts in video and pics when I started loading apps for ringtones. The videos are no longer clear when I take them and adjusting the settings does nothing for clarity or picture size either. Recently in the past week I did my research when the problem occurred with the microphone, I can hear the callers clearly yet my mic sounds muffled or has no sound at all. I plug in the ear piece headset/mic and it works fine, blue tooth ear piece works fine too. There are several different theories on message boards and even on the actual Sony web site itself comments are there. Warranty hasn't done anything about it and the Sony Store well they need some serious training where I am located. I rely on my phone for my business and the 12mp camera with the ability to play movies and vids is what sold me on this phone. Wish it can be fixed

  • i have this phone, is the best, battery, camara, speed, is hd..... i love this phone...!!!! In RD Santo Domingo

  • give me som feedback pleaase , i dont how to choose btw Xperia S or Xperia Ion, i want to know if Xperia ion has a good camera i read have a lot of noise this is solve with ICS version how bout speed is good or better go for SXS, actually i have an xperia arc thnx

  • Hi. Can i use my normal sim card (not micro sim) with Xperia Ion??

  • I have Used the India Version of both S and ION! 1st thing i want to make a clear note is that ION supports Upto 10 Fingers touch..! I tested it myself.. Both the Phone have same CPU and H/w and CAM as well.! But i felt the Colors in photos taken from ION lot better than that of S.! the display is Phenomenal..!and Kudos to Bravia Engine.. It really does make a Difference.! wen it comes to choosing b/w the Two.. I realy dont like the Plastic feel of Xperia S..! Ion has a Aluminum Back feels so much sturdy than Xperia S.! if u are fine with the size then go for Xperia Ion.! If u want Similar H/W in a smaller Display and a Lighter Phone(Plastic :P ) then go for Xperia S..! It even Comes With the Transparent strip (i really dont like the "Strip") Both of them have one Big con.. The Capacitive button might feel a lil Unresponsive But wen u get used it, it will b fine !

  • xperia is d best its provides bravia engine better disply size.. iI m using xperia u nd battery backup is also good

  • How can you say that iphone 4s (either 5) is better than Xperia ION?!!! Is like watching champions league i in a 32" TV (the best that you can have), rather than 60" TV (even a normal LCD). Can you compare?!!! :)

  • if you need some plastic design, no status, but well equipped inside parameters (but with no sense use, why you need quad core?!! to dry faster your battery) than buy SGSIII if you are in business, if you need status. most stylish design, something that distinguish you from the others. than ION is the best (it is dual core, and it is faster that you do not distinguish the dual core from quad core in everyday use. actually i don't know for what use is needed quad core!!! can anyone explain? Up to now there isn't any special need that I know. And for battery, my fried, it is how you will use your phone. in normal use, most of the phones will fit every needs. but if you are a teenager and and play games and web all day long, than neither a Droid MAXXXX HD will fit your battery needs, you better buy also a generator to have it with you to charge the phone :)

  • kindly suggest which phone best. Samsung galaxy s3 ya xperia LTE.and bettry life also

  • ion is better then s or nay other xperia

  • battery is 1900 mAh but not very good as 1750mAH xperia s.even this phone came to market after 3-4 mounths later than xperia S. my choose is xperia s becaus it has 342 ppi and number one at the market. xperia ion only better about HSDPA 21.1Mbps or some source says 42 Mbps.Xperia s 14.4 Mbps, ı offer you xperi s but i am still waiting prices down a bit.Still very expensive in my country.

  • I am using the Xperia S and the battery is better then my Ion so i recommend S if you dont use 4G LTE

  • no. don't replace your ip4s for this phone. ion is an old phone. but if its galaxy s3 or htc one x they by all means go for it.

  • ION is better than S

  • which is more better? ion or xperia s??? suggestions pls.. thanks!

  • Its a micro sim lik the iphone. Go to ur sim service provide and request for a micro sim and they will give it to u.... In fact u can use the normal nokia kinda sim cards, however u would remove the orange plast n jus insert only the sim card.

  • I noticed that also. But if you go to the Sony style store there are tons of Sony products which are perfect for you Ion LTE

  • Yes it only support microSIM the one used in iPhone and Nokia Lumia series.

  • it is very simple question and please only those who own Sony Xperia ion LTE answer it my question is: which sim card is acceptable in Sony Xperia ion LTE? i am asking about the network sim not the memory sd card as there is alot of confusion in the comments is it micro sim like iphone or normal sim like old nokia phone? on gsm arena there is no mention for micro sim but some comments say micro please some one clarify

  • Nice phone I like it.

  • market price around 400 to 500 USD

  • Yah u can make video call in hight quality

  • Can we video call from skype and voice call? Thanks in Advance

  • There is no such thing as a macro SIM :/ & the Ion LTE uses micro SIM. There are 3 types of SIM :- > Mini SIM (regular) > Micro SIM (almost all new phones have started using this) > Nano SIM (used in Iphone 5)

  • how much RAM do you see on your Xperia ION? I only see around 600MB+ instead of 1GB

  • Just make sure your screen protector is well mounded,then calibrate the screen n you're ready to go. The capacitive will work perfectly with the shield on.

  • Just make sure your screen protector is well mounded,then calibrate the screen n you're ready to go. The capacitive will work perfectly with the shield on.

  • what's. the price of it in us market????????

  • Sony xperia Ion has inbox messages or conversation type of messages...

  • i love it when will there any updates with ps3 that work nice still try to download movies from the ps3 we need updates with the sony ion nice work sony

  • I just updated my Sony ion LTE,N complain at all the Battery is much stable than before and the Bluetooth connect to a distance of 19metres away from the device.Dual cores are better than quad,quad consumes ore power.

  • Hey I use Sony ericsson xperia 10 and I love the new xperia ion pls change to me pls

  • i was gonna buy this xperia ion partly because of it's lte equipped radio, but then i saw the xperia s(white, i'm sucker for white phones) and i bought it. seems like the networks in the philippines won't be rolling out lte services or if they do, it's still on beta and i'm sure will ask for huge payment for subscriptions. i guess i won't be needing lte for the moment. i'm happy with ics 4.0.4 on my xperia s( and hopefully jellybean via the aosp thing) *for those who want a more responsive capacitive on screen buttons, don't put any screen protector on your xperia

  • i luv expey!

  • Hi guys good phone d only probem is battery life

  • Has it microsim or macrosim????????

  • Hey all, I am going to be getting a new Android phone soon, and I am currently torn between this and the Samsung Galaxy S3. Both run with basically the same plans (this one is slightly better), but I really prefer the look and feel of this phone over the S3... Basically, I was wondering if I would be stupid to buy this phone over the S3? I know that it has somewhat outdated specs in some regards... But frankly, I'm not a power smartphone user (this will be my first smartphone actually). Which is better?

  • Awesome phone....specially performance wise...u can run multiple applications at the same time

  • exxxxcelllllent display by sony ! Great work!

  • just like & very nice phone

  • depends based on the spec both phones are pretty impressive you really cant go wrong no matter which one you choose. They have almost the same features like NFC and LTE both have scratch resistance coating. One is gorilla glass the other is Sony "mystery glass" I only call it that because I have no clue what coating they use. Nonetheless it works, I choose the ion because I love Sony phones, but you can't go wrong when it comes to the phones.

  • Lets think about that for a minute. Sony high end NXT line has been getting very little spot light to the point that most people are ignoring the specs inside the phones. This is my personal opinion if you look at the pure specs it favors the Xperia Ion and her twin sister Xperia S. but if your going by reviews then most of them are gonna favor HTC One X device. Truthfully its all up to you.

  • ion is very good. with price is campare s3.

  • guys is tat tis xperia ion s better tan htc one x reply me dude .... i am waiting

  • Connect your phone to your PC and it will start if you have the companion running.

  • connect your Xperia ion to PC companion :D

  • Xperia ion Galaxy s3 Which phone is good?

  • How can i upgrade to ICS?

  • I upgraded to ICS yesterday. It kept going back between 105 and 107 a few times before it stopped. But all is good now. If it takes a while (more than 1 hr) after the upgrade is downloaded, do a reset and it will finish.

  • ICS is out for the Xperia Ion LTE version just connect your phone to PC companion to start the update.

  • Update happening for ICS hopefully..........

  • does it cost only 340 euro and does the secondary camera useful for video calling?

  • not the speaker the volume is very low with and without headphones headphones

  • battery is durable, fast and bright screen, but no ICS, is a awesome phone the camara is powerful can make greatest 12mpx pictures!

  • Great phone. 9/10. Smooth sleek. The speakers a bit choppy and phone volume not that loud

  • is galaxy s3 because sensor or big screen in this price

  • Is the Sont Xperia Ion LTE a waterproof and scratchproof phone just like the other Xperia phones? When will ita the ICS or Jelly Bean OS? Thanks

  • go get it in zimbabwe.

  • Anybody tell me when its coming in india, ajmer???

  • love this phone! the screen size and bravia engine is just superb. it would have been Sony's flagship model if it was release with ICS, but who cares? as long as it does what it needs to do and a bit more, then it's a win win for me.

  • Anybody know when it's coming to South Africa? . . Been waiting since June, almost end of August now and still not available on any networks.

  • friends this is very strylish phone with very good configuration quad core is good compared dualcore processors but those phones have same ram of 1gb thats way compared to samsung galaxy s3 and htc onex this phone also equal to compared these price range smart phones ans also this phone very good browsing speed because this phone have hspa+ thats way this phone have upto 42mnps browsing speed amd also very good display quality with hd resolution 1280*720 and also very good music in headphones and also visualaisition effects like pc and very good integrated facebook techonology hd video chatting amazing smart phone from sony family i like this phone superb

  • does it really suck..... I thought of buying it.....

  • it has a secondary cam so there's video calling

  • is this phone better than galaxy note or experia s........??

  • I bought x ion this morning. It looks beautiful. Main disadvantage is the bottom keys are not responsive. Screen color looks fade. Music sounds rather small. The phone is heating after about 5minutes browsing. Think twice before buy it.

  • QC Dual core is better than other Quad cores!

  • Like any other Sony Phone....this does not have a 3G video calling....right??

  • I was thinking it was better than the s3 too, but then I took a closer look at the specs and the s3 is a quad core phone whereas this is just a dual core. This phone beats the s3 when it comes to the camera, but the s3 is still more faster/powerful. In my opinion faster is better.

  • i bought this phone , its awesome phone better than galaxy s 3.....no complaints if any body said worst thing about this phone he must be joking..

  • its a 2mp front camera..

  • I bought x ion this morning. It looks beautiful. Main disadvantage is the bottom keys are not responsive. Screen color looks fade. Music sounds rather small. The phone is heating after about 5minutes browsing. Think twice before buy it.

  • than please tell me about all information about it

  • available in the phillipines,,its more fun in the philippines!!

  • very good smartphone..buy from somteck blog

  • No, it is also available in Canada with Rogers.

  • experia ion lte are only available in at&t? not a international version?

  • I m using Xperia ion and it support video call,using front camera on Skype etc..its use micro SD sim card.

  • I think the power button should be on top of the phone. It will be more practical. Because if the power button on the side, it might accidentally push when take a snap for photo.

  • I would like to ask about: -whether that phone supports micro sim or regular sim cards? -when it will have android ics? and will it be upgraded to jelly beans or no? -does it support skype video calls?

  • Sony Xperia Ion now available in India ...up on Snapdeal.com for Rs. 35,999

  • ICS will not improve the battery performance, just so you know.

  • yes it has 1.3mp front camera

  • why doesnt gsmarena have this phone on the camera comparison tool??

  • Can I take video calls?????Plz let me know

  • When this mobile be available in India??

  • This is maddening! Does anybody have a rule book as to which phones use the Standard SIM vs Micro SIM? Ours came with the micro holder after reading everywhere that it only reads the STANDARD. The support site actually shows both versions depending on which manual you download with the White paper not specifying at all! Are the contacts the same and just the difference is the amount of plastic around the outside? if so, would it work to use the ATT standard sim card in the LT28i if we cut it to fit the holder? This is annoying that Sony is inconsistent with the info...

  • Hey peeps i just bought a sony xperia ion from overseas and it seems that it wont read the micro sim. I wonder if this is a common problem or maybe the phone is broken in that part. Some help would be very much appreciated please

  • Tnx mate....

  • Yes it is

  • Its for AT&T how are you using it on T-Mobile? have you unlocked it. I'm looking for unlock code but can't find on ebay

  • I am a die hard user of Sony products. Currently using xperia s. When will this xperia ion hitting the market in Germany?

  • its an option, the only thing is that I still dont know if they have already released the upgrade for this phone, or if its coming next month...

  • Is it available in india pls tell me guys i am dying for this phone :(

  • Dose anybody know if this phone support video call or not ?

  • can I update Xperia ION to ICS????plz any could tel me

  • Nice design but battery no good and sometimes overheat... also a bit laggy.... overall good camera if minor problems can be solve

  • same problem with me sony dont have any schedule in middle east, this is the big market in the world sony should be careful about this matter -

  • Just got the new Xperia ION from HK. The build quality is good and awesome HD screen. The only thing am worried about is the battery backup which last only for a day. Waiting for the ICS upgrade which may improve the battery performance.

  • Just bought a LT28i. Beautiful, Fast, Can't wait for 4.0. Currently working on T-Mobile USA! Full 3G/4G and should work on their LTE when released in January.

  • yes i agree sony is very late in ksa the sony is losing the markete in saudi arabia

  • Can anybody tell me when this phone gonna be available in the Middle East?

  • Its not the original sony its chinese copied phone i talked to them ...

  • is it good set?

  • Can I have the link please where it is sold for $300/- ?

  • link please? I see it on ebay at 500+

  • They sell it for 300 bucks and you can use the phone with any operator you want. IT costs 100 when you buy at Verizon or At&t where you must sign a contract.

  • The only thing i hate is the ion's lower button does not have light! So it hard to press the button during you're staying in the dark place....

  • I just upgraded my contract for this phone in US.

  • It isn't really $300.00 it's $100.00 this site is selling it for more.So you guys find another site to get you phone because all the phones on this site is way over the real price range. #GAME HEAD

  • please guys help me, i need to get this mobile...when it will be available in Egypt or Middle East, please anybody help....and is it unlocked in US markets or it's available with AT&T???

  • i love its name..ion when it will come to malaysia

  • is this really $300 dollars? how about here in the Philippines.

  • No the Ion is not dust or waterproof, the Sony Acro phones are.

  • is it water n dust pfoff??

  • its a sexy phone

  • thanks for the information ..... but tell me whether we can update it to jelly beans ?????

  • please let me know about d release date on this handset with the price...em really impressed with the specifications. thanks in advance

  • Yeah it's update to Ice Cream Sandwich is available

  • Superb India lunch date please

  • I do

  • Sony ion doesn´t come to Europe? Why?

  • Anyone notice yellowish tint at the bottom?

  • This phone is a decent phone. I came from sprint where I had the og Evo, Evo 3d, epic 4g, epic 4g touch, and the Motorola photon. I would say this lands right behind the epic 4g touch. Also to all saying the bottom buttons aren't responsive, this is not true the sensors for the buttons are slightly higher then the pictures. Touch above them and they work perfectly.

  • can we upadate this phone to v4.x.....that is jelly beans ??

  • it's alreadey sold in all countries. dear arenateam why don't u review such flagman?

  • it a nice option after upgrading to ics its battery life has been improved.......but i can suggest sony xperia s that would be a good option

  • I have had this phone for a little over a week, and I will tell you it is a fantastic phone. Battery life is excellent. Easily makes it through a 14 hour day,with 40 to 50 percent left. Camera is great. I was deciding between several phones. Decided to go with something new. I have had Samsung and Htc. For $100, with an upgrade, can't go wrong! Love it!

  • can we upadate this phone to v4.x..... ?? is this phone available in India???? plz people let me know asap....

  • I disagree. I find the battery life terrific. It lasts all day, which is great. The camera looks pretty good and the flash keeps things well lit so the grain is minimal. So far I just love this phone. This is my first Sony phone and I am sold on their quality.

  • Is it available in Singapore?

  • Surprised nobody responded.. No. It does not have the 1700mhz band Tmo uses in the states for "4g". AT&T/Straight Talk 850mhz LTE only. That said I've heard some rumors about Tmo refarming more of it's 1900mhz spectrum to HSPA so there is a SLIM possibility it would work. Emphasis on SLIM.

  • It's a bit disappointing tbqh. Needs lot's of light or the noise is huge. Megapixel count is no substitute for sucking in more light so HTC's 8mp will serve you better

  • I want to know about this camera cuz I like apple's camera which is cool & gives real clarity of pic .so would u like to tell me about this I'll satisfied to purchase

  • business users will usually buy only phones with a qwerty keyboard and solid exchange mail support -- typically that includes Blackberry, Nokia E/Asha range, HTC ChaCha, Samsung Y Pro, Sony Xperia Pro. with Win8 phones from other brands like LG the range of handsets for corporate users is expanding, but full keyboards are very much in demand. even with the best voice recognition available, like DragonDictate for iOS/Android, you are limited in where you can use it (ie not in a meeting/commuting/etc), so keyboards will always rule that sector.

  • are you sure about this

  • this is a good phone and good price, supported usb on the go..cool

  • arenacrew. wher is the review?)

  • it is sounding cool hope it provides the new gntrn opstns

  • Does it works on t-mobile on 4g network

  • intelligent reply!

  • it has a micro sim. It doesn't use the regular sim card.

  • Hi guys, Is this phone available in India. If not when it is going to be. If yes where it is available. ThanQ

  • All of these phones are made from the same components from mainly the same company (i.e. Foxconn). So to say that Sony is not good or that Apple is higher quality is not a great argument. Personally, I have had both many Samsung and Sony phones, and I would chose a Sony phone over Samsung any day. Samsung's phones are far less durable and break after just a few months; they are also quite cheaply made. Subsequently, all of my Sony phones still work perfectly to this day, even the ones that are 7 years old. To say to get rid of Sony completely would then cause less competition in the cell phone market, which would make you pay more money for the phone you really want.

  • Poor battery life...

  • It's good to be you...

  • this phone is available at WWW.atgsm.com is the store name. $585.00 4

  • this is a great mobile.....

  • i have already every new xperia sets because ... i live in abu dabi

  • Hi 5 dude . I have 3 sonny phone :-) and other Sony stuffs same as u

  • Sir can you tell me Is there any problem with low button? and Have you ever compare its camera to se arc? Thanks!

  • I bought the international version of this phone, which was released 28th April in Taiwan. I am sooo loving this phone. The screen is excellent, the camera is awesome with the one problem being over sensitivity to light. Yes it has microsim adapter. It has decent battery, good for a full day, but my favorite part is it takes only an hour or like 45min to charge fully.

  • I just bought the phone. Negative - No light sensors to automatically dim or bright the display. - lower buttons are not responsive - sounds are not that good. I prefer HTC beats

  • Will this phone work on T-mobile's network? Meaning, will I be able to get T-mobile's 4g(HSPA+ or whatever) speeds? Or is the other version the one I'm looking for if I wanted to use it on T-mobile?

  • Figures that the geek geniuses still can't produce a smart phone that's smart enough to give a full day of bat life......

  • please are u sure that the relase date in june 24th cause realy i like the phone and i wait too long for it ,,,,

  • Doesnt it have a full HD Display (1080p) as mentioned in their site?

  • I heard somewhere that this phone will also come with a MicroSim Adaptor (In the box).

  • Screw that man leave massive screens to tablets and laptops. Try not to forget that these are still phones and pockets won't be made any bigger to accommodate them

  • Final the release date is June 24th finally..............

  • No, Sony Xperia ion LTE Doesn't Support Micro Sim, Which According To Me Is A Good Thing, I Mean Who'd Wanna Take All These Long And Complicated Steps Trying To Transfer Your Current Sim To Micro?

  • what is the release date of this phone?

  • I don't want the galaxy s3 cause its super ugly to me and the HTC One X seems like a risk, so I'll I guess I'll wait for this or get the atrix 3. Its Just everything in my house is made by sony, my tv, laptop, my camera, I have a psp, PSVita, and PS3 lol kinda don't want to mess up the trend.

  • People should understand that strength of sony and samsung are different in US market.Samsung tells to AT&T that we have got this specifications and we only support it thats it.But for sony mobile to come through At&T they have to pass lot of test cases.Even if testcases fail for samsung they dont care and they introduce it to market.This fone has been under test since feb in At&T after it was announced.Its not that sony is trying to be slow in introducing this fone to market.Its how the market is may be today samsung tomorrow sony Who knows!!!!

  • Does this use micro sim?

  • I got a hands on experience the other day when a Sony rep came in my work. Great feel, love the metal backplate, sturdy. Nice looking front and UI is as good as any other in my book, although HTC has some pretty nifty animations. Took video and pics with camera, Sony's collaboration with all its divisions shows. According to the rep, June 10th or June 24th release, he leaned more towards 24th. $100 with upgrade or new line, not bad.

  • business-wise. Vote Samsung. Consumer wise. Drop Sony (very annoying) Quality wise. Apple

  • the problem is sony is taking to long to get its phones to market! this is a great phone that should have been released already. instead, its slated for Q3, after the galaxy 3. yeah, good luck with that one. yes i think this is a better phone, but the hype from the GS3 will overshadow this phone's release. too bad, i was planning for this one but i guess maybe i'll look into the GS3.

  • LTE support 4G connection..

  • LTE is 4G generation. HSDPA is only 3.5G.

  • This phone is released in HK & Singapore, Ive just pre-ordered mine and being imported in NZ!! Sweet1!! cant wait!!

  • what is the diffrence between the ion LTE & ion HSPA ???

  • me tooo...

  • sony you pretty much suck, i cant believe this phone has been announced 5 months ago and still hasn't come out. i guess sg3 it is

  • Sony is a company destined to rule the world of electronics but as long as there mobile division is this slow, it may not happen anytime soon. Heaven help those that help themselves.

  • i strongly agree!

  • I just hope that when the right time comes for Sony to release their first quad-core phone as their flagship, they should start with a 4.7"/4.8" screen size to compete with Samsung's S3 & HTC's One X. I am currently using Sony Xperia S with 4.3" screen but when I saw Samsung Galaxy S3 and HTC One X, it's not that really big and its size is still comfortable to hold. I love to have a Sony smartphone with 4.7" or 4.8" screen, slim profile and between 125g - 130g in weight.

  • It seems there's another version of Xperia Ion (LT28h) revealed by this government's website: :81/index.php?0601=&key=2&cari=Xperia

  • Is this phone going to come to India?? If yes, then when??

  • Only for the US and at&t exclusive. It's deayed to the point that it's now in stores at almost the same time as gs3 even though it was announced at MWC in feb.

  • Sony is a good brand and they are making v.good mobiles, but they are making a big mistake by delaying there products, they become outdated.!

  • this phone really come on worldwide?really confusing!!or this phone only availability for US only??

  • Flawless victory!

  • its June 2012 and this phone still under " GB planned for ICS" come on Sony

  • It's coming out this June

  • This phone its not coming,,,its already late,,,even samsung s3 its already out there so why sony so slow,,,,coz this pon gonna outdated,,,,i belive it sony not gonna sell it,,,im so frust been waiting this pon so long,,,yesterday i just bought samsung s3 in malaysia around rm2199,,,so whoever still waiting this phone,,,just good luck for you all,,,may god bless you

  • The thing with Sony is they make good phones but from what i've seen they are pretty much outdated when they actually arrive. If I was to buy a smartphone right now it would be from either Sony, Samsung, or Apple(would have added LG too but i'm still not too sure about their phones) because they are the only phone makers that I actually like(had a bad experience with HTC).

  • so true. this phone's specs look good but with gx just announced, i rather wait for that one than the ion. same thing happen to xperia s, when it was announced it seems to be a great phone until htc one x was released and realized s was very thick and outdated. sony is slow and i think they will never catch up with samsung and htc.

  • Sony go to the best tech.

  • Decided to not get this phone, realized it will be outdated when it finally releases in the US. Might get the GS3 or some other phone in december, if Sony would just bring the GX to the US that would be great. Whoever else still wants this phone good luck.

  • It is now available in taiwan with the price of 19990nt dollars

  • Well looks like it really is coming:

  • I have two options: 1) upgrade to this phone next month or 2) wait until mid-december when I have to renew my contract, because by then there will be better phones out.

  • Sar(us) value&#65311;

  • Finally has been released, pictures and announcements found at www.xperiablog.net At this time, only seems to be released in Taiwan, but its the beginning..!

  • Saw the video of the Xperia S with ICS & it looks good. Hope when the Ion gets its ICS update that it will have all of features of the S plus a better lock screen. Really hope the battery life doesn't decrease like some phones & that there are not alot of bugs after the update to ICS.

  • slightly bigger screen, smaller hdd, different styling, etc, etc.

  • what s the difference from s?

  • This phone will has battery build in.

  • Oh S.... this is coming only to USA? What about Europe?

  • Last I heard the battery was replaceable.

  • holy .... is this battery build in or is it replaceable?

  • Come on why don't they put xvid divx codecs in it and where is the camera button? All the rest is ok. It isn't nice but it's ok and the 4.55 inch screen is big enough. I just might consider to buy it. Will see.

  • What is wrong with Sony i just don't understand.They are taking one month every time to release Ion in a new city.At this rate how much time they will need to release the phone in 70 countries,u can imagine.For me it's over 2 n half month since i have sold my HTC Sensation XE and waiting for this Sony Xperia Ion.If this mobile doesn't come in June in India,i'll go for SGS3 or HTC One X.Don't want wait more.Not me only many people in other countries have also got fed up waiting for this phone.Don't want to wait again for GX or any other similar phone from sony

  • When is it coming to zambia?

  • Xperia ion its not going worldwide,,,,,only gx come to worldwide international edition,,,so gx will have all in countries,,,,

  • This phone should Have a Snapdragon S4 chip! Like this if you agree.

  • no, ion is not going to be cancelled.it'll arrive soon

  • ION is on presale at Sonystyle Hong Kong

  • Xperia ion cancel!!!! Gx come with best features,,,,,great,,,,ion 12mpx,,,gx 13mpx,,,ion 4.55in,,gx 4.6in,,,gx will useful with android 4.0,,,yesss,,,,,come on babe,,,,this is what i waiting for,,,welcome GX,,,

  • Today i heard that sony will cancel this unit,,,coz bring the GX,,,ohh gosh it happen again,,,it like ruin my life,,,ouch,,,

  • You & I are the same page my friend, the GX is a better phone in every aspect compared to the Ion. Sony & At&t need to make up their minds about if & when the Ion will be released.

  • There are reports that sony may cancel this phone and bring the GX to america like how samsung canceled the samsung skyrocket hd because of the GSIII, i hope that they do cancel this phone and bring the GX or just give a damn release date already geezzz

  • I am also sony fan but sony giving same option in all the phones. Change the function one model to another model.and give me some within ten thousand android smartphones.

  • It will have Ice Cream Sandwich... but it's not released yet.

  • for those who still waiting for this unit good luck guy's.

  • Would like it very much if Sony brings the GX to the US, the GX makes the Ion look like a 2011 smartphone.

  • Pliz work on bluetooth make it 4.0 and os make it ice cream sandwich.duo or quadcore then it will b a better piece

  • if you use Note for a couple of days you wont notice the size.

  • strongly agree!

  • ION will be outdated without being released, go grab a different phone guys or wait until end of Q3...sad!

  • The Galaxy Note is a good phone I don't blame you for choosing it. The screen is just to big for my liking, I can't see my self holding it up to my hear during a phone call, I don't even think it could fit in my pocket.

  • IMO it all depends on what you are going to use the phone for, if your person who just uses their phone to call, text, & browse the internet then go for the Arc S. If you do other things besides that with your phone like video chat or play graphic heavy games then go with the Ion. Again it all depends on what you are going to do with the phone.

  • i had enough on this phone, last sunday i brought Galaxy Note and at this moment i love you this phone. good luck to all still waiting for this phone.

  • Only things I would change about this phone is the chipset, CPU & GPU should have S4 krait dual-core cpu with adreno 225 or higher & it would go from a good phone to a great phone. Really hope Sony fixes the capacitive keys sensitivity issue too, I wonder how it would look & feel with ICS.

  • unlike the xperia s it supports micro sd card ,why!!!!!!

  • guys plz advice sony xperia ion or xperia arc s

  • damn!..i want this phone so much!

  • Why u should choose SONY Xperia Ion over Samsung Galaxy S III 1.Better Camera..or i should say best camera on an Android OS based phone 2.Dual Core..it's more than enough what u do on a mobile phone...unless u are a big time gamer & like to play 3D games. 3.Better UI..seriously Samsung's TouchWiz UI sux. 4.The design..Sleek,Simple but yet stylish. Why u shoul choose Samsung Galaxy S III over Sony Xperia Ion 1.Exynos 4212 Quad core processor... 2.Out of the Box ICS..for Sony Xperia Ion it is yet to be seen whether it is ICS or will need be upgraded later 3.Smart Stay eye tracking (hv to wait for the reviews how much it is functional) 4.Slightly better battery life over Sony Xperia Ion

  • hey it wont be a prob with android !! its a bigger platform compared to bada any official update when available u can have it !! i think ics ll be soon available !!

  • Gave up waiting for this phone...

  • will it be gsm unlocked, like could i put it on att go phone or maybe straight talk?

  • better than galaxy s3

  • Thanks, hope your right! :D

  • Does any1 here used sony android phone before? i really scare of buying phone which will be leftout without getting update firmware after1year. Exmple on bada, look at what samsung done to s8500 users. i hope that sony won't treat us like what samsung done.

  • I think LTE is the only one.

  • Yes!!!!

  • Sony ION, why only available thru AT&T. You are limiting your sales, it's no brainer really.I'm a T-Mobile plan holder. I'd like to buy ION, but I don't like AT&T's service.

  • thats right ,,,, if this phone was available in india i would be the 1st to buy it .... me looking forward to other smartphone present at this stage... sorry ion :(

  • Wow I must say that Sony stepped its game up with the Xperia GX (LT29i Hayabusa), now if only we can get some info on the Ion.

  • Seems legit but i would like to be aware of the battery cuz i am sure that there will be always inadequate battery capacity for these phones...hope over 2,100mAh

  • They copy Samsung Infuse 4G!

  • Does any1 here used sony android phone before? i really scare of buying phone which will be leftout without getting update firmware after1year. Exmple on bada, look at what samsung done to s8500 users. i hope that sony won't treat us like what samsung done.

  • Hey can anyone tell me what specs. won't be available in the international version of this phone aside from the LTE

  • this phone is coming in the month of june ...

  • sorry sony, SG S3 will be release by TELUS may this summer. i like the Ion but, what can i do if no where to buy.

  • You maybe right about that, I noticed in some of the videos of the Ion that the capacitive keys didn't work very well. I just hope they would at least upgrade the chipset.

  • I like its degin but sceren should be 5 inches

  • Guys, its not without news, sony just isnt very public. this fone should be out by the end of the month when they have fixed UI errors, appereantly the fone was lagging with the visuals so they are werking on it as we speak!!!

  • I'll give Sony & At&t until June 1st.

  • going to taiwan to buy this phone

  • Now this is interesting, stumbled upon this Google Adwords ad while information gathering :Ad related to xperia ion Why this ad? New Sony Xperia� ion | sonymobile.com www.sonymobile.com/xperia-ion 4G LTE Android with 12.1MP Camera. Coming Exclusively to AT&T in June. Google Xperia Ion and this is what the top ad is. There are a few versions of the ad running so one has to refresh a few times to the see the June part.

  • I had no idea that I did thanks!!! The UI, pixel density of the screen, 12mp camera, shutter button & the fact that it was made by Sony got my attention, but like I said its been way too long without any news on this phone. If Sony & At&t had a release date then yeah i'd wait a little longer, the Ion was going to be my first smartphone ever (currently stuck with the pantech impact) but Samsung showed some things on the SG3 that I really like plus the whole "inspired by nature" got me also.

  • Waiting for Ion in a looooong.. loooong.. time..

  • Noooo!!! You post all the interesting stuff here! Aw man, everyone's disappointed it's like a surprise party where the birthday kid never shows up! I'm still waiting for the ion, if AT&T and sony are just gonna be stupid then so be it. But nothing compares to the ion. But whatever rappers to the whole deal with May 8th release date? I'm depending on it, if not I might have to get the one x or Titan II. It's the camera and screen that get me, and the shutter button, as I will be using this for underwater photography (thanks to liquipel) and the screen itself won't be operable there.

  • Well it was a good run but now i'm offically done with this phone, no official release date after 4 months & no updates from Sony or At&t on this phones statues. Goodbye Ion hello SG3!!!

  • when when ion......

  • ion is better than s

  • A true disappointment. I've been tracking this phone almost daily with anticipation since its leak and announcement at CES. It's extremely limited advertisement has been pathetic, overshadowed by its weaker siblings, the P, the U, and now the Sola. I can't say its been a wild ride these last few months because it hasn't been a ride at all, just a slow and dragged-out wait. Like many other potential customers, I have given up on the Ion and turned to other devices (I chose the One X). AT&T, you have really brought down the Ion, and it will never reach its full potential as a true flagship device alongside its Xperia S brother. Best of luck to those still waiting, however. I hope you all enjoy this phone when it finally does arrive!

  • Has anyone realized when you google "xperia ion" the Sonymobile link at the very top says coming in June?

  • I personally like the design. it will sit perfectly in your hand, and this design will show clearly how big is your display.

  • I hope such a long wait means a change in hardware, because the Chipset,CPU, & GPU are same as the S2 Skyrocket. I have used that phone before & it didn't perform that well.

  • when is this going to be loanched.. I ve been looking for this for over 4 months now.. this seems to be a failed and fooled attempt

  • hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I prefer xperia s

  • It's not removable. This phone will be sitting on a charger all day. Great if you have a desk job or live in a car. I couldn't wait to get this phone. I was really disappointed when I read that. It's of no use to me.

  • sg3 has undoubtedly a bad design...but success and failure can't be decided just on the merit or demirit of design. Talking about specification, this is a dual core handset while sg3 is a quad core processor device. Camera doesn't matter much when it comes to smartphone...as for you if megapixels of camera is a deciding factor, you better go for Nokia 808 pureview with 41 mp (38 mp effective)...and mind you sg3 has already a launch date, while this device has no information as far as its release date is concerned...Sony has a habit of crawling at a dead slow speed. Isn't this a shame that a device with no extra ordinary specification is taking ages to release even after its announcement which was way back in January...they need to learn from Samsung and Htc as these companies know how to take care of customer's desire of having a smartphone with standard specification, unlike Sony.

  • and sony you say you want to get rid da billion losses and again slowly get out your product keep dreaming

  • guys waiting for ION read the click the link above and read the article.... this summers gonna be cool

  • shame on sammy sg3 is an epic fail!! lower ppi,still 8mp compared to this beauty,horrible design,and too big.. sg2 is a better choice. im sure thi one will beat sg3 and this will be alot cheaper..make it internatinal sony!!! this will sell alot

  • When this came out at CES Sony and AT&T said it would be exclusive to the US. Fast forward and this phone has been released in Taiwan and forthcoming international release. Not a peep about US release. Great job Sony keep alienating the last market that will save you.

  • sorry this fone come's not to market in Europe. There is no really no one trader whwere you can pre-order ist... this says enough!. For me it is Vaporware! No hands on video or anything else from Community. Only something from CES and some full blown messages from SONY itself... Sorry Sony Guys ! This Game is over! I will wait here for max 2 more weeks for the release of the little Brother Xperia sola. the only new Sony fone with an microSD Card for European market... The Samsung AMOLED b*lls**t is not my goal... if it is not buyable then I will go for an HTC Evo 3d for small bucks.

  • I hope this device will come to the Philippines

  • hai guys, is this phone available in India,

  • batterrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!

  • The longer Sony & At&t wait to release this phone, the more I don't want it. I mean come on now the One X for at&t was announced back in late february (a full month after the ion's announcement) & is getting released this sunday. Such a long wait could be a good thing but on the other hand it has me worried about this phone.

  • SG3 is coming soon, why it takes too long for xperia ion to be released in the market. i'm waiting for this phone to be available in KSA. i might be tempted to buy SG3.. please sony let us know the release date of this experia ion.

  • me too

  • If the Sony Mobile LT28i is priced anywhere near or below Samsung i9100 (SGS2), then I'll go for the LT28i(ION).

  • I just received an email saying Xperia ION will be released on 6-10th May in HK! :) Taiwan to be released after that...

  • yes it does have slot for regular SIM and the micro SD card

  • Does this phone have a slot for a regular sim card (I think I remember hearing there is a slot for micro sim on this phone)?

  • pros: 12MP camera, microSD slot and LTE cons: lower pixel density than S version and no cool look of transparent antenna as S version.

  • I totally agree with you, this phone should have been released as early as march. The SG3 might make me change my mind about getting this phone.

  • we are ALMOST there. i just dont feel the tegra 3 is realy right for a phone that doesn't connect to a lap dock or tablet. yes the low power is great but it could use more when all 4 cors are running

  • what is that at&t, which is given on phone

  • dear frndz i am from saudi arabia my frnd buy sony xperia s which is really good.but it is very expensive other sony phones are comparitively good. so i would like to purchase one sony/sony ericson mobile plz help me when this all will be available in market also their prices.or suggest me suitable sony ericsson mobile phones

  • sony is the slowest reptile in this world...i mean just imagine a phone which was announced way back in january hasn't released yet...given this much period of time an ant can climb and reach the peak of mount everest...and over and above, till now no one is 100% sure whether this phone is exclusively for states or will this item be released worldwide...sony has already lost about 20% of there customers who had eyes on this handset and they will atleast loose another 30%-40% once sg3 is released...good going sony

  • dead slow sony...there market is on decline and they are still not learning

  • Every thing about it is very good but we are in the quad core age

  • When its coming in europe ???????

  • good job Sony! we've been waiting this phone.

  • It was already launched in Taiwan yesterday. Hopefully it will be available in the Middle East (or worldwide) between June or early July just in time the ICS availability for all 2011/2012 Xperia family.

  • when it be release in middle east ???

  • hi friends my thinck sony xperia ion is number one phone take onetime in life and enjoy i also waiting this phone

  • this phone is coming worldwide :DD i promise . and its coming ...

  • when the phone will be market in malaysia????i ask so many place,but they dont know when....i want to buy this phone.....

  • I want to buy this smart phone badly

  • At&t & Sony need to hurry up & announce a release date before the SG3 announcement next week, because after that most ppl will forget about the Ion. which ever phone is out & has better battery life when i'm eligble for an upgrade next month is the phone i'm getting & hopefully its this phone.

  • yeah it does have a gyroscope

  • i think this model is dead, no update on sony.

  • Does this phone really have a Gyroscope?

  • looks like similar to the xperia s, and lower price

  • Yes, after unlock it.

  • Check Xperia blog. It is ccoming this week in Taiwan

  • may be sony has no plan to sell this phone!

  • Can someone please tell me if i can use this cellphone in INDIA...

  • I have my heart set on this phone but if the SG3 has a better screen, cpu, gpu, & battery I might have to switch to that phone instead.

  • just 300 eur is this real?

  • waiting for this unit is a waste of time! sony sell your mobile division to samsung or apple.

  • Good news everyone!

  • tnx for the valued information.

  • Finally it's coming.. only need to wait for few more week"s"...

  • Someone told me to forget about this phone & get the One X, don't get me wrong the One X is a good phone but for a music lover like myself no microSD card slot is a huge turn-off/deal breaker.

  • Sony is one of the greatest companies in the world in my opinion, in ethics, advancements, and quality....but this phone is dead if they don't put an S4 in it...it's too little too late unless they do...I'm just sayin :D

  • Soon is not soon for Soony Why this phone it`s not in the market at large? Sony XPeria ION is waiting Androïd V.4.0 (Bad bench test ...) Sony has some problems with this new Androïd version ... An enhance version XPeria ION e will be launch in next may. Franky *

  • When this phone is going to launch in kuwait ???

  • I sold my HTC Sensation XE.I didn't like the Camera quality.Thought this "Sony Xperia ion" will be my new phone.But even after 2 weeks no news of it's release.Not only this,i m even not sure that this phone will be in international markets or not..SONY everyone is waiting for this phone

  • I don't know why AT&T is not releasing this phone, HTC One X that was announced much later than Ion is ready for pre-order and Ion that was announces in January and there is no information about ION's release date. I hope AT&T don't do the same thing what they did to Xperia X10.

  • Anyone have any idea when this is being released? I believe 'Q2' was mentioned at CES, then nothing new.

  • i think when sony said "coming soon" they should have said 'coming in a long time'

  • There hasn't been concrete news about a release date yet. There isn't much difference between the Xperia S & the Ion, the Xperia S has better pixel density, can use up to 10 fingers for mulitouch, & bigger internal storage (32gb). The Ion is slightly bigger, can use LTE, has a microsd slot, ANT+ support, & has a bigger battery (1900 mAh).

  • please if any one can put out the information of the day that this gonna release on? and i gonna purchase a xperia s or should i wait for this????????????

  • when it will come?

  • You're not the only one lol. I get so depressed with my sanding captivate which sucks ass and can't even gps properly...

  • So hyped for this phone, its at the point where I look at it everyday.

  • i like this phone

  • Mr. Kaz Hirai Please release unit now, it's been long overdue

  • They should provide native video calling facility which is abscent in all new phones,

  • Expected Release Date: May 2012 seems legit to me... could be holding up against rumored Galaxy S3 and HTC One X releases

  • I wish the flagship devices for AT&T were their best devices, they always flagship the like 3rd best phones. I'm holding out for this one, I just wish it was their new focus eater than the iPhone/lumia 900. I like to have a good phone WITH a wide support basis for once.

  • heard rumor back there saying it was scheduled for 8th april along with Lumia 900 lehh.. =.=

  • I think by the end of april we should get a release date for this phone....... FINALLY.

  • When was that?

  • dady of all smart phones.

  • Hope so because i'm dying to get my hands on it

  • Yap they hav said it

  • Until Sony says that they are releasing the Ion worldwide I won't believe it. I'm convinced At&t will release it alongside the HTC One X

  • But the xperia ion is going for a worldwide release

  • I have a feeling that Sony is gonna release this phone alongside the htc one x, like they did with the nokia 900 & htc titan II.

  • A new leaked report from a Sony employee says the ion will be released may 8th!

  • this is the one for which i was looking for.....

  • I have a hard time believing that this phone is in the UK before the US since its exclusively for at&t, I think your talking about the xperia s.

  • Mate! He wrong! Yr talken about xperia s! Ion is not released in UK or any other place yet...so..r u being funny or stupid?

  • It's already released in uk? Oh god! Why they aren't releasing it worldwide!

  • Are you talking about the xperia S or the Xperia ion?

  • ive had this phone since april 12th in the uk, its a fantastic piece of kit, an upgrade from my HTC HD2 Ported with android 2.3. The screen really does have to be seen to understand the clarity and sharpness it delivers, in comparison to a iphone 4s its like a CRT tv and a 1080p HD LED TV it really is that good, The camera is also another excellent touch by sony, no blurred shots and from the lock screen you can get a picture taken within 3 seconds without having to even unlock the phone.

  • Usually I would agree with you on the AT&T part, but this I blame on Sony, as of late they don't have the ability to open up a potato chip bag. They better get this thing out before the One XL.

  • That's just an estimate, there is no official pricing yet.

  • I'm convinced this phone is coming out in may, I mean come on now its almost mid-april & still no release date or price. This is one of the two (the skyrocket hd being the other) smartphones that i've ever been excited about.

  • SONY and AT&T are messing up! Why are there no announcements as to when the device will be released?! Thanx. For. NOTHING!

  • Expected release date is 2nd quarter this year (Apr/May/Jun) so still within the time frame. If you are living in the US, then you are lucky as ION so far is for the US market (AT&T). SONY has no words as yet when exactly the international version will be available. I just hope Sony will use the S4 Krait 1.5GHz dual-core processor for their international version and higher capacity battery.

  • There is no official price yet, so that is just a estimate.

  • No international version as yet and this one is just for the US market (AT&T). Once the international version (might be available later this year) of course it's compatible in the Philippines.

  • how come it is 300 EUR with better features compare to Sony Xperia S of 470 EUR?

  • at&t release only Lumia 900 and HTC Titan II no update for xperia ion :(

  • Why Sony don't release this phone? May be it just a teaser for the market ... Other models releasing about the same time ! I'm ready to buy but, release it or get out the pot... lol Frankky *

  • best... awesome no words to say.... my dream mobile.....

  • facing the same problem that where it can be purchased
