Sony Xperia sola - User Reviews

  • Disable trash system apps and install greenify

  • Buy a new phone

  • worst chipset ever but cool name

  • Where did the name sola come from?

  • NovaThor? wtf... lol

  • factory reset or flash official rom can help you

  • i have this phone for more than 4 years, and its gorgeous! yes it is slow in today's' standards, its clumsy, but man i just love it - the design, the touchless screen reactions (by the way do you know any other device with a screen that feels your proximity without touching it?), the OS, the music player, the way i can connect all my bluetooth devices with just one click... all it takes is a bit of patience, don't rush it and the device will respond.

  • usb drivers not working with this sony xperia sola, even from official sony mobile website, pc companion nothing working with this sola xperia :( anyone tell me how to make it little faster!!

  • the Chinese hand written screen on the Sony Xperia sola 3.7" smartphone ?

  • my bluetooth, wifi, hotspot; all of these are not working. what shall i do?

  • I have experience v2 Rom and enjoying my Xperia sola. Just Root your Xperia sola and use ram expander app to swap memory and increase Ram capacity.

  • Anyone visiting here , Just Root your phone and install Greenify. I love my phone.

  • Reformat it. I had the same problem and it worked trust me.

  • Still using this phone i just flashed minimal OS from xda its run perfect now. Unfortunately this has bad gaming performance my antutu result is 11k. Battery is now ok but you can feel the struggle.If this monster has 1gb or 768mb ram i will be very happy

  • i use this phone in three years. 512 mb ram isn't enough.phone is getting slow.but this phone is perfect. great touch system,great colors.

  • battery drains super fast as 4g.

  • Yes... The apps will come back soon...or in the future

  • Hi. Try ebay

  • You should search on google and find how to reset your phone, I did it but I don't remember how was it, and the apps won't come back

  • when u factory reset ur phone,all that applications come back automatically

  • Dear xperia sola users, Can anyone tell me the two free pregnancy apps in xperia sola. I got two pre installed pregnancy apps when i bought the phone. Mistakenly i uninstalled it. I am in need of it.

  • sony experia has not cookies brower and http is malformed.Why facebook is not picking.

  • Bootloop. Reflash rom found in xda.

  • Would l not recommend it to anybody instead buy samsung E5 or Samsung prime.

  • need help My Sola can't start. Everything look good, when it charged on off-condition the notification lamp and the battery image on screen is normal. But when I turn it on, it keep looping between the 'Sony' and 'Xperia' screen. Already try to hold power+up button until it vibes 3 times, this only shut it down, but the same thing happen again when i try to turn my Sola on. PC Companion and Autoflash only detect the phone just for a moment, only when the 'Sony' screen appears.

  • TAke Z3 compact, I had sola, now using z3c

  • M using d phone since last 2 year ,now its performance is too slow. N i want to upgrade d phone cn any 1 suggest me

  • What issue(s) are u having?

  • it is a best one mobile phone

  • Hey Guys , I am using Sola for quite a long time now . I have a GT i9100 as well and recently i put custom rom cm 12 on my GT i9100 . Unfortunately battery drains like anything and i am suffering . So does cm12 on Sola have similar issues ? Because i am planning to put cm12 on my Sola as well . Any help ?

  • Good day I need assistance with my network settings, can I kindly be assisted on that. Thank you

  • I have a sony sola phone since one and half year. Its bettery is not enough. When I upgrade android version or any apps its getting slow. As wel as when using data the phone is getting so heat. I am never recomended this phone. Dont wast your money !

  • it doesn't. that circle is the light sensor.

  • unoficially yes.

  • plz enyone tell me can xperia sola upgread to jellybean?

  • Does it have front camera bc it writes it don't but on pics it have that circle..

  • Installing CM12 will make it better.

  • Please just apply your common sense...this device is having only 512 mb ram out of which only 356 m.b. Is user available so how can you expect it to run fast....whereas z1 & z2 have 2g.b & 3 g.b ram respectively so they will run smoothly...& all Sony phones are not the same. The speed of the phone depend's upon it's ram & multitasking depend's upon the processor & not upon the Company or the brand.

  • how am i upgrade this phone? plz tell me someone

  • how did you upgrade the android system ? am living in dubai and there's no upgrade for the phone :/

  • Download link for CM11 KitKat 4.4.2 custom ROM ?

  • I've used my sola for 2 years. After ICS upgrade, I had a disappointing period. But I've installed CM11 KitKat 4.4.2 custom ROM and now my sola is a really smartphone.. I suggest this for every sola users.

  • ICS works perfectly on my sola. Just remove all transition effects, widgets, live wallpaper.

  • I have been used this phone for 2 and half year. It was good about one year. After upgrading to ICS it went terrible. It lags and crashes all the time. I am dissapointed in Sony. Plan to buy Xperia Z1 or Z2 but not sure in Sony anymore :(

  • I just got this mobile phone and it works pretty good.For now I didn't experience any lag.

  • Hi I just bought it and is working no fault till now there are some lags but not everytime definitely go for it cheap by worlds fine

  • To flash roms, unlock first the bootloader and download flashtool

  • Sola is waste mobile, its very slow. Dont buy this kind of mobile.

  • It is a amazing phone when rooted. Get rid of sony bloats and install expreince v1 rom xda. and see the magic of speed and smothness

  • The worst phone. Battery life is very very less.Callere volume is very less. Completly out of use after ayear

  • Buy new mobile

  • Hi..I have a problem.all the wats app pics n stuff gets stored in the internal memory.as a result the internal memory is full though the memory card is totally free. Plz guide how do I transfer these pics from internal memory to memory card.

  • why is it, that the phone loose signal and then you have to switch the phone off completely and then restart? it is frustrating because you don't know when the phone lost its signal. only time is when you pick up your phone and see that their is a red X top right side of hand set? is their a setting? What is the airplane mode, Must it be on or off? regards Emile

  • Hi, as you said, ICS is really crap on this phone, almost everyday i feel like throwing this away! How can I go back to Gingerbread or flash a CyanogenMod as you suggested? or how did you flash SlimCM v3? I really want to get rid of ICS from my phone. Kindly advice.

  • I have this phone for a few months now. And despite all the negative opinions about it around here, I consider it a great, every-day smartphone. But not with Android 4.0.4. ICS 4.0.4 it's really crap on Sola and will lag as hell. Get rid of it as soon as you get this phone and either go back to Gingerbread or flash a CyanogenMod. I flashed SlimCM v3 and works excellent. Really smooth, no lag at all. Also as others already said it, uninstall Google Play Services (or just quarantine it). Remember this phone is not made for people who want to play games or do multitasking since it only has 512MB of RAM. But if you're a regular user who only wants a nice looking, cheap smartphone for every-day use (browsing, music, email, youtube) this might be a very good choice once you switch from ICS (which is horrible on Sola).

  • Very bad experience, many lags, constantly crushing apps and slow in general.

  • Using a sony soly phone. Its battery power is not enough. Some time it get struck. I have to use extra phone because its battery is come to law very speedy. Then i want to replace high capacity batter for this phone. please advice me.

  • How to root my phone xperia sola it is very slow and apps are not opening

  • If it have front camera & 1 GB RAM, it would be parfect

  • camera key+power button+up volume key

  • guys please let me know how restart this when the phone is stucked?

  • Go for the sp the only things i like to m2 is gorilla glass 3 while the sp is just gorilla glass but its also a gorilla so no big issue i guess and otg supported thats all the rest sp...i don't have sp phone but i compare it to m2 and for me sp win

  • Very great tip... Thank u

  • Hoe did u do it?

  • If you want to speed up your Xperia SOLA do these simple tricks! 1. Uninstall Google Play services (it is a useless app even though some apps gives you warnings to download it, don't do it because this app alone makes your phone 50% slower) 2. Avoid using facebook updated app, instead use a browser to go to FB, in this way you don't need facebook messenger.

  • Totally waste Xperia sola ,,,,waste my money and time ???so pls return to my money !!!sony is ____________?company so many problems ????

  • hey guys pls pls help me im really confused whether to purchase xperia m2 or xperia sp both the phone r mind blowing with its features...im realy confused pls help me guys as a friend............im seriously confused man...pls pls

  • Phone is outdated now as it is. But if you use CM11 KitKat 4.4.4 and a ram swapper, it simply comes back to life. I was considering a new phone so i didn't see a downside of trying rooting and went for it. Now i'm happy with Sola again.

  • How did you do it because this phones battery is non-removable?

  • I have the same problem. I don't know what is wrong with it.

  • I have had this phone for over a year and suddenly the phone decided not to charge even though the charger works well on other phones.This is not to say that I've had a smooth ride with it all this while. I wouldn't recommend it because it gave me too many problems especially with battery life and memory issues.

  • My Xperia sola failed to charge yet when I tested the charger on other phone it works. It doesn't start up.

  • Do not ever buy this phone.... Worst product from Sony.... Lost of users are facing issue of continues auto rebooting.....

  • I cannot explain how many times I have wanted to throw this phone against a wall. Luckily I haven't. Phone hangs non stop, when on certain apps it will crash, frequent restarts. Perhaps I'm a heavy user but I'm glad I finally got a new phone. Going from this to an Xperia z1 compact has bloody made me a less frustrated smart phone user that's for sure.

  • please tell me that which cell phone is better for me sony xperia sola or Q mobile NOIR i9??? plz i want your suggestion.

  • install amm (auto memory manager ), this would solve the problem.

  • At first instal pc companion on pc.connect phone to pc.launch pc companion,there you could find it

  • I Bouth recetly 2nd hand, but is very very slow, how i can silve this problem.

  • I also have the same problem. The battery drains so fast that it wont last for an hour with data mobile on even if it is 100% charged! I have not updated my os since i bought it in november 2012 but constantly updating my apps. I only use facebook, ig, yahoo, twitter and gmail/google pls advise and help. Thanks in advance.

  • for more battery backup install: 1) Screen Filter(its really reduce battery drain) 2. Easy Battery Backup (will help you about best charging info) thx :-)

  • I tried the app and it's amazing! Kudos to you sir

  • Those who are talking about Hang issue i prefer you to download "Auto Memory manager" from Google Play store(better to download it from play store instead of other link) and your problem will be solved OTHERWISE root it and makes it RAM higher from SD card its an awesome set sdpecially its camera,video,graphics and specially 3D sound quality

  • Same here. It switches off often after every 5 minutes.....and battery can't support

  • 1. install 'PC companion' to your PC 2. connect phone to your PC 3. wait 4. the message alert end.. hmm...

  • Any body tell me how i am update my xperia sola's OS 2.3 To 4.0 ? Please tell me.

  • I own a xperia Sola which is updated to Android 4.0.4 my phone never hangs, but I agree the battery goes down way too fast you know why because it has a high quality display not so high. I can hardly use my phone continously for upto 5 hours when it's fully charged. So worth having this phone.

  • Hi Randy V, This could be the probable cause, 1.An internal display and compactability program in the phone is not working or responding..... OR 2.The program you are running is not compactible with the phone..... IF YOU PROBLEM LIES IN THE FIRST REASON THEN HERE ARE PROBABLE SOLUTIONS TO FIX IT... Step 1: Give your phone a hard restart by holding down the power button key and the volume up key all together at the same,Keep holding until the phone goes completely off.Once it goes off,switch on your phone and try running any of the programs to see if it now works... IF THAT DOES NOT HELP THEN TRY STEP 2 Step 2: You should try resetting your phone completely. go to (SETTINGS>BACKUP AND RESET>FACTORY DATA RESET>then proceed) (WARNING!! PLEASE BACKUP ALL YOUR VALUABLE INFORMATION SUCH AS YOUR CONTACTS,MEDIA,PROGRAM APKS AND etc,BEFORE YOU PROCEED TO RESETTING YOUR PHONE) Well Randy V here is the best advice i can give you for now,I will try my best find more solutions for you if these ideas do not work for you. Please if you have and doubts or questions then please feel free to tell me........ Thanks for your concern,hope this solution works for you ;)

  • Here are 2 steps you should try. The cause could be that a display or compactability program has stopped working or responding in the phone.. Step 1: Try restarting your phone by holding down the power off key and the volume up key until the phone goes completely off,then restart it by turning it on... OR IF STEP 1 DOES NOT HELP THEN Step 2: You must reset your phone completely...(BY GOING TO SETTINGS>BACKUP AND RESET>) WARNING YOU MUST BACKUP YOUR CONTACTS AND ALL YOUR PRECIOUS INFORMATION FROM THE PHONE BEFORE YOU RESET IT. Well Randy V I truly hope this idea works for you... Please write back if you have any doubts or questions. Thanks for your concern...........;)

  • Friends my mother board is gone its not working please help me with it

  • After an upgrade its not possible to use it in a usual way. it is very very slow, insufficient RAM plus some other bugs, like not possible to turn off wi-fi, loosing net signal, etc. I dont know if all Sony devices are like this, but this definitely discredited the brand...

  • Everything started out great when I bought Xperia sola in the first place. But then it keeps hang and whenever I tried to screenshort, all of my album disappeared or sometimes just a few of my photo appeared! Im so dissapointed!!

  • Worst phone ever , I would exchange this shit with a kit kat bar with a smile on my face . 1 million hangs & freez per minute , u better throw this phone in the toilet n flush it quickly

  • Whenever I try to open a program,it just shows the program name and then automatically exits... What can I do?

  • never read the user opinion pls....who like us then after purchase any mobile..and i say that everyone mobile has something problem..so we liked any type of mobile we should purchase it...

  • This phone is baaad. It was woking fine when i got about in early 2013. Reviews then were very favourable. l liked what this phone had to offer. Not the best phone even then but it was great value for money and better specs than samsung for the same price point. Then bang! It just started crawl and hang!?!? Reading from the reviews just now, I realise and understand that it was the upgrade that did it in. This phone is a goner. Not buying nor recommending to people to buy sony phones.

  • I can confirm this. Sony messed up big time by releasing ICS for the Sola. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think 512MB is sufficient for ICS to run properly. I've hated my phone ever since I mistakenly "updated" to ICS. I thought it was just an update to GB. BIG mistake. My Sola is going to be replaced soon.

  • don't update!!!... I saw reviews saying that updating the system form Gingerbread to ICS slowed the phone down but I did not listen... It would've been a great phone if I left it alone...

  • Ma phne is also the xperia sola and i havn't any hang in the phone then y u guys hf that.? iz bcz of ur incorrect usage thaiz y ur ph getting hang

  • bad phone.. its hangs all d time.. sometimes or rather everytime u get a call, u cant recieve it for 1 min inspite of answering d call.. all bcz of low ram also u cnt just do many activities at a time.. it hangs.. better opt for a phn with atleast 1gb ram this phn is great bt due to its hanging nature, u hardly cn use its best features!!

  • Well, the prone is pretty messed up by the developers - Sony. If you're on low budget, and you can get Sola with Gingerbread, then go for it and never update it to Ice cream sandwich. Trust me, just don't. No matter how you want it. It will mess up the phone. I can't tell how great it would be with GB, cuz I updated the first day I got the phone, but, reading a lot of forums, I came to the conclusion, that ICS is one, that killed the phone. ^That's just for some, who didn't know. Other than that, just like others said - RAM is too small, battery life is not so great either (Though it charges relatively fast), multitasking is quite hard thing to do... but yeah if you're just going to use it for calls, SMS, some web browsing - you'll have no problem with that.

  • my cell sony xperia sola is hang due to usage of internet connections

  • absolutely true............. +1000

  • Can you please let me know how to boot Sola MT 27i so that I can increase the ram size. Also it discharges very quick. Quick like within 4 Hours the mobile dies.... without any usage of it...... If used, I cannot even use it for more than 1.5 hours... Please let me know how to correct this things. You help will be appreciated a lot.

  • My phone sony solo, I bout it year ago , the problem is that discharge very fast after disconnect from electric supply, what I will do?

  • how to get upgrade bya OTA for sony xperia sola

  • me also same issues happening.......

  • how to upgrade my xperia sola

  • My Sony Xperia sola works great up to now. I'm on gingerbread. You probably need to update your firmware or update it to ICS.

  • worst phone.... i've wasted money on this phone. its the biggest mistake by sony. it keeps hanging without any damn reason and the call is super slow! i open the call log and it takes a few minutes to open it and when i call, it takes another few minutes to connect the call. its speed is amazingly awful provided the 1Ghz dual core processor!!! it is annoyingly irritating. And sony being a multi million dollar company is helpless and hopeless in this case. the customer care keeps saying it does not support ICS! now this is more annoying. ive been trudging along with gingerbread OS and still the problems persist. this is the worst phone in the whole world, probably...

  • I wanto set gprs settings but it gives other options. my network provider is Vodacom. it its using gingerbread software.

  • I have been using this phone since 2 years, the worst phone ever. I have chnaged mother board for 2 times and headphone once. Still problem continued. The worst ever phone. No customer care service from Sony side.

  • i am using it for a year .it is a good phone but hangs sometimes but with smart memory booster pro it becomes awesome and now it doesn't hangs and if it does just press power button and volume up button together and it will just restart

  • press all 4 buttons at a time upto 3 vibrations to reboot fone.

  • Install Auto Memory Manager.

  • Dear Friends, All those who are facing hanging problem, install auto memory manager and see the difference. I am using this phone for the last 13.5 months and after installing AMM, my hanging problem resolved permanently. Also, do keep minimum app/shortcuts on the home screen which reduces load on RAM.

  • how too boot the phone

  • is it safe? by unlocking bootloader

  • I use this unit for 2 years. It is a very good phone for me. Why? I suggest that you do these things to unleash the potential of this unit. 1. Unlocked bootloader 2. Rooted 3. Download Custom Rom on XDA. Just my suggestion.

  • this is my phone

  • Just for 3min was ok n after that again started to hanging .

  • Tanx. I did factory reset and now is better but I must update factory apps. The oldest version of these apps are suck

  • You mean when u reset ur phone to factory mode ur problem is solved?

  • If your phone is working slow n hanging a lot, my advise Do the Factory Data Reset. N then never do the Update of factory Apps like a Google Maps, Facebook, Chrome n etc. As you know that new updated apps need more RAM memory n your RAM is small enough... Also do not set any king of Live Wallpapers, they all sucks Battery!

  • Worst Smart phone. Sony should be screwed Up.. Useless mobile this is. How dare they selling this for 20500 without any customer support. Jus wasting my entire day on Unlocking it. Jus wanna throw in garbage but my 20500rs stops me.

  • I bought this phone last year and sometimes is good. It's slow now But today when I wanted to use for example clash of clans or other apk that need to connect internet it said:unfortunately, Google+ has stopped,Google play has stopped, and I couldn't use anything. What should I do?????? Please help me.

  • Problem of motherboard within warranty period and got service duly. Soon expiry of warranty period(only after one month) same problem persist. Here the custmer care advised me to pay about Rs7000. JUDGEMENT IS YOURS

  • Uninstall updates from apps on settings

  • Go to nearest authorized servicing center

  • It is a lie the Sony smartphone is better good call time. High in-calling volume . U can put on noise depression to depress noise in the area wen making call.

  • where to bring this phone for repair? manila area. Issue : the unit has been accidentally wet kindly help thank you.

  • for ICS.. settings- more- mobile networks- network mode- WCDMA(preferred)/GSM. and there u go..

  • I'm having a hard time connecting experia sola on my smart pocket WiFi, it kept on disconnecting after connecting for just a few seconds. But if you try connecting on other WiFi connections it connects very fast.

  • I had updated my sola to 4.0.4, Chrome and Google+ are available(Google+ was also available with Android version 2). But the phone turned very slow and it is testing my patience:(.

  • Not recomended ,i use it it laggs a lot,crushes a lot yesterday stop working for no reason and i had to third charger because the previous chargers broke :/

  • they said xperia sola is 3G but how come my experia sola is not.Is there anything I can do to activate the 3G?

  • This is an excellent sony smartphone. yes, the in call volume is not so rich & the ram is not enough !! yes, it has everything i need !

  • The in call volume of the phone is poor. You can not hear anything if you are in a bit noisy area even with full volume.

  • Is there google chrome,google+ in sola

  • to al those having lagging issues with the phone u have been using the phone since last 1.5 yrs stock ics.first of all accept this is a midrange phone and u can try out thr following to improve ol the issues iy worked for me 1) most important disable apps you dont use especially the Facebook app Google chrome and Google plus they r super memory hogging apps n ull notice a difference straightaway after disabling them u can install fb alternatives like atrium n fast for facebook they are good enough 2) uninstall all the apps u dont use 3) use apps like android assistant to clear the cache from time to time 4)turn off glove mode 5) use app like advanced task killer to kill apps every now n then when ufeel device is becoming slow 6) use opera mini or opera mobile browser they are much faster than the default browser 7) if all fails do a factory reset n then al of the above this will surely help u out n thr phone will become lag free n no problems taking calls or making them hope it helps drop in a line if it worked for u

  • I downloaded the to be used to downgrade from 4.0.4 to GB 2.3. but (as I understand) I need to download a GB 2.3 -can't find it anywhere. The 'download GB 2.3' links offers some file converter(?)

  • I downloaded the to be used to downgrade from 4.0.4 to GB 2.3. but (as I understand) I need to download a GB 2.3 -can't find it anywhere. The 'download GB 2.3' links offers some file converter(?)

  • Quite good phone (whit some magic), but very bad support. If Sony gave real 512 MB RAM (no, i'm really not saying 512 MB RAM to RAM, which evidentelly has only 390 MB), it could be much better. Thanks to great developers (for example munjeni), sola users can have Jelly Bean, now Kit Kat too, but they haven't almost any sources, so they can't do wonders only by reverse engineering - mainly in KitKat.

  • Absolutely not, I have this phone for about a year using 4.0 it lags alto its impossible to receive calls, its takes about 10-20 seconds to answer or make a call. I advise you not to update!!

  • Really Worst Phone. Just Worst. No Better words to express. How Sony and Android are Such Ignored about customer satisfaction. really Waste of 20500 INR on this phone. Never I Found Better from the day of purchase. How people are still buying Sony and Andriod. Spend some more Money and Buy Apple. They Really developing products for Customers and business not Jus for money. And most difficult Part with SONY is... No Service Centres in a MAJOR City ike Hyderabad. For entire CITY they have only one service centre in Ameerpet. Really How ignorance. At time of buying in Excitement we Ignore service Centers importance in Maintenance. Which is very important. every ruppee we paying is not jus to struggle.

  • Worst battery timing. I had to charge it 10+ a day. Except worst battery timing ....

  • Worst battery timing. I had to charge it twice a day. Except worst battery timing i think it is a good mid range phone.

  • Worst smartphone ever, i have it 1 year and half, it takes about 5 minutes to make a call, and takes that much to pick ! it Lags on every thing ! WORST FONE EVA

  • I just upgraded my Sola to 4.1.2 Nd realize my video is not recording BT my camera works perfectly Pls any one with an idea on Hw to solve dis problem?

  • Do you have solution yet to that dot patter with your sola.well I have also the same prob it bothers me ..if you solve it pls rply ...tnx tnx

  • -You need a flashtool and you need to download the firmware. It may seem difficult at first but it's actually pretty easy to do, just follow everything what the video says. If you get any problems just reply. Hope this helps.

  • **I recommend you guys to take time and read this, especially those people asking about the Android OS.** Good day, everyone. For those people asking if updating the Android OS of Xperia Sola will make it better, to be honest, no, it won't, and this is coming from a hardcore Sony Xperia/Sony Ericsson fan. I've had my phone for about a year and a half now, and I just successfully downgraded my OS just a week ago, after putting up with the ICS version for about 7 months. Well the only visible change the you will notice after upgrading it will be the display. You won't notice the sluggish part until the next 2 weeks, and I'm telling you it's going to be a nightmare. I wasn't able to play games, even midrange games, surf the net because it takes too long to respond. And the worst that I (or you too may) experience is how it takes too much time to make and answer a call, there would even have a time that I missed the call because it just kept on ringing even after being swiped to answer. -So just enjoy the GB OS, and make the most out of it.

  • getting to slow and can't make calls easily. need to restart it over and over again . its hang a lot and need to wait few minutes to trtend the call.

  • worst phone ever.extremely sluggish performance.lags a lot. will recommend not to buy sony phones at all. Buy Nokia 1100 instead of sony. Atleast you will be able to make calls easily .

  • My HTC was stolen. I saw Sola in H Norman - decided to check it out on the net. Next day Sola was gone!!!! but the salesman rung another HN and I bought the last - demo! I like the phone and I agree with you about HTC USB functions - excellent. With Sola I can't access fotos to transfer to PC because all I can access is one 'card' and if the camera (3rd party) saves it somewhere else it takes a lots of time to find and copy to one of 2 SD cards. So because of this problem, my next phone will be HTC.

  • The sony xperia sola is a really very good phone,just a bit overpriced(keep in mind the motorola moto g etc) I have been using this phone since 4 months,and it's pretty cool. The text looks so crisp and photos and video look amazing.The novathore dual core is immpressive and can run heavy games as well(i never suffered a lag while playing clash of clans),gta sa,3,nfs shift,mostwanted,asphalt 7 are also supported. The ram is not enough,since 128 mb(not surr) is reserved for the gpu only 368 mb is accesible and almost 150 mb is used by background processes,apps etc.But the dual core won't let it it to be a let down The battery life is ok i can get about 18 hours of heavy usage. the design is simple yet good looking. internal storage is ok. and ics is not super fast nor super smooth but is usable(without doubt)

  • Worst smartphone ever, i have it 1 year and half, it takes about 5 minutes to make a call, lag lag and lag again. RAM is noy 512 but 386 please check it out.

  • there is nothing to worry in updating the android os for sola...just install sony pc companion and update the phone directly....no need to flash and it is easy and simple for all to update......for those who r beginners If u install flash tool and doing updation u might feel difficult at some point if u were struck also u may loose anonymous data consumption....

  • Check if there's a problem in your internet connection. If it still the case, best to ask Sony about it.

  • I just want to ask you guys about updating your android version. My xperia sola I connect it to my pc companion then it appears there is a latest phone software update 4.0 version I follow the instruction but I'm stuck on step 3 prepare then update. It says need to turn off & connect to pc then hold the volume down I did it but nothing happens. Please help anyone knows?

  • Yes, if you're not expecting to have a Samsung Galaxy S3-type of mobile phone. I won't be updated to JB to beging with. Overall it is a good phone. Just learn how to manage your files, apps, etc. to enjoy it's optimal performance.

  • I also have it but it was gone when I restart my phone. But I have one that is there out of the box at the right side corner; I just ignore it.

  • Storage: Phone memory - 1.97GB Internal storage - 3.98GB External storage - expandable to 32GB Other mobile phones doesn't have phone memory or internal storage.

  • I fully respect the opinions of others, but for me it is a good phone. Probably not the biggest, fastest or with built-in front camera but it is far better than others. It is fast enough if you know how to delete files like cache files or clear the internal data after some time, big enough that it still fit in your pocket perfectly.

  • The phone is really really shitty, dont buy this phone , Sony released a worst phone.

  • I do not recommend the update. Well know issues are: - stereo recording will now be mono - adobe's flash no longer available - lagging I am using from the beginning GB. Very happy with it. Greetings.

  • What to do when is slow at calls and other stuff?

  • I am currently using GB. I am considering for the ICS Update. Should I go with it? Recommendations Plz....!!

  • I'm using this phone since 7 months but now I have found a problem (ie. a small white dot point is appeared center of the screen) what happened???

  • everything in one phone small but don't thing small it's a.better device for new users of android when u buy it trust me Dan u never buy any other device of any other brand after using this I hope dat Sony wins ur heart

  • Hey Bro, built 9 is available to download. Be optimistic build 10 will be all fixed. I'm using built 9 camera Bluetooth videos works great. Long battery life, excellent ram management, smoothl and butter are main features on it.

  • it depends upon your thought because it has only 512 mb RAM and it is low for running apps. it doesn't have front camera for video call. this handset has high pixel density and it makes crisper display. I m using this phone with latest android version 4.4.2 kitkat. would you want to buy this phone??????

IT LAGS LIKE SERIOUSLY!! even the messaging it crashes like seriously everything crashes... even if I've uninstalled all of my apps it still lags! like now i am disappointed because of this laggy phone

  • i ve using it about a couple of years its very cool to use the phone and still it performs better

  • just re install ur os version again it will solve ur problem and i had faced the same.

  • That will never happen. There is someone on XDA, his name is Munjeni, who gave up in porting CM11 aka android kitkat due to Bluetooth issue, video recording, wifi tethering(I think), Youtube compatibility issue. It was so troublesome and he gave up because it was really hard to fix. You can check XDA and type CM11 on Xperia SOLA in the search engine box

  • You need to re-install the FTF STOCK ROM for this case.

  • It once happened to my unit. You have to install SUS then the process goes

  • my phone is'nt working. when i try opening it, it just apearring SONY , the XPERIA .. and it turns back to SONY.. and so on.. it continues showing the same until its deadbattery

  • put ur phone in direct sunlight about 5 minutes then use.

  • i am using sola since 1 and half year good but before 1 from 1 week it is shwoing "The accessory"y microphone and buttons are not available" then speaker not working. after 10 r 15 minutes automatically working. what is problem.plz friends reply

  • Simply great mobile set. Camera performance is really good and Battery performance is also in satisfactory level. It would be best if the RAM size is 1GB. Considering the price, it's a great smartphone designed by Sony.

  • I agree. I would be happy with 1 GB ram. Amazing phone, but already putting some money away for the xperia Z1 compact. Nevertheless I will never regret having my xperia sola. Very good mobile. Greetings.

  • I am afraid never, I would recommend you to keep GB for more stability. Greetings.

  • Dears,,, when do you thing the operating system of xperia sola will transfer to andriod kitkat

  • This phone is gorgeous and is very beautifully designed. This is a piece of art. The photos displayed on this phone is incredibly gorgeous and elegant that even the top-end Samsung phones can't compare with it. If this phone has 2g ram, it will be perfect.

  • I have a problem when i want to know how much is my credit or when i finished the call it automatically give me my credit but in my mobile it appear to my with symbols and i didn't underStand any thing of it what should i do? Thanks

  • Please don't buy....its to much lagging issues... application are unfortunately stops due to low RAM space...google maps also stop working...

  • how it runs with jelly bean ?????? plz tell ... its lagging very much on ICS

  • slowly this phone hanges a lot..............too much,prob!!

  • The sola is a gud phone and I recommend many pipo 2 purchase it though it has no front camera. dats the problem with it,otherwise its kul.....

  • For me sola is perfect phone, small but not too small, perfect pocket size, fast and responsive, very stable software, great camera and picture quality, timeless design. My current software: GB 2.3.7 (6.0.B.3.184) There are few things with it's use. First, stick with GB and not upgrade to ICS. ICS had few bugs in my case, brake up during calls, when receiving call after answering phone would still ring, sloooow at opening programs, especially phone app, SMS led notification not working, simple terrible. With GB all above works fine. Second. I'm using phone just for calls few times a day. Sometimes GPS and internet also. Battery lasts in standby 7-10 days! On heavy use 2-3 days. How is that possible? Well, there are few things to consider: you need new and latest SIM card, sola doesn't like microSD cards so if you don't need it get it out cause some SD cards do draw battery, in network setting set it to work in GSM mode only, turn off animations, last and important, before putting the phone on charger to fill up the battery, TURN IT OFF AND THAN CHARGE IT or IF LEAVING PHONE ON, AFTER CHARGING TURN IT OFF, WAIT A MINUTE OR TWO THAN TURN ON. That's it. Before battery would last 3 days tops, on heavy use just 1 day! It took me 2 months of experimenting and reading comments to solve battery drain problem. I have all other usual apps and of course wifi, GPS turn off. Forget all task killers, battery calibrations, rooting and God knows what else. Stock GB works just fine.

  • Its simple.... just go to power options and activate the extended battery standby time mode.... Hope that will help........ :)

  • Well Sir Qahara,I have no full garantee that using a Samsung USB cable will be safe.I strongly recommend you use the original sony xperia sola USB cable for a full and safe update to andriod ICS version.Because according to one of the cautions that was mentioned on the sony pc guide,it strongly warned that xperia sola users must use the original usb cable for its update. Bro,i probably think you should try looking for the original cable to buy from a legal phone shop... Because even if you use the samsung usb cable to update your xperia sola successfully,you cannot risk to have severe bugs and problems after your update to ICS on your phone and aside all,it goes totally against your phone's warranty So please bro sorry if you lost your usb cable but i am sure you can get a brand new one from legal phone shops or you can even borrow a friend's sony xperia sola usb cable to update successfully.So what trying to do by updating with a sumsung usb cable is unknowingly quite risky.......Hope you totally agree with me???.........Thanks for your concern............

  • The option is available....... But because of your upgrade to the ICS version the location has been changed.... This is where you can find the 3D panorama camera... 1.Tap or Open the camera. 2.On your camera screen you will see a list of options for example;Capture,lightening,shooting mode etc. 3.Simply choose or tap the shooting mode...please if you can't find it,it is on far top left side of the screen when you turn the phone horizontally or landscape......The icon looks like a small box in a big box... 4.Tap it and it will open a slash menu indicating different types of camera modes namely;SCENE RECOGNITION,NORMAL,3D SWEEP PANORAMA,3D SWEEP MULTI ANGLE and SWEEP PANORAMA. 5.Good,well enjoy your new ICS version...........cause a lot of super features has been added to enhance the phone enjoyment and confort,like the talk back service which enables the phone to talk or mention anything your hand touches on the screen,floating touch,super gaming controls and graphic enhancer,super bravia video and image enhancer engine,the best update for walkman and more................Explore the new possiblities of your sony xperia sola with the ICS version...............ENJOY.....................­.

  • xperia sola king bro thnx for telling us how to update ics but after upgrading my phone,the option of 3d camera is not there can u help me in this problem?

  • How to fix it when sola is being a ' hyper battery consumer'

  • if I use Samsung usb cable. will it save to user it to upgrade my sola

  • change touch panel

  • Is there a fix to touchscreen not responding issues? Specifically, the top left corner icons not responding while others do respond but takes a little effort (a single touch, soft or hard, may not help the first time). Any suggestions, please update.

  • Sony Xperia Sola has a known issue with touch screen not responding. Most notably, the top left corner icons on any screen does not respond at all (Eg. : Contacts icon in Applications screen; Gmail icon in the next screen; Google+ icon in the third screen; Liveware Manager in the fourth screen.) Touch is as it is pathetic; trying to unlock by swiping the finger is a very difficult task; once unlocked, using any icon is difficult, specifically the top left icons not responding at all - even after updating the software to the latest, doing reset procedures, etc. A simple search in the Internet gives a plenty of users facing this issue and also demonstrating the same by videos of the phone. Very upsetting.

  • 1. Sometimes wifi cannot be turned off (power off - power on - turn wifi OFF is the only way that works). 2. A battery saving setting makes your calls drop and your phone unreachable, turning it off fixes that... (Battery saving function that supposedly turns off data connection when you´r screen is off or something like that) These problems seems to be pretty widely known, but unfixed by SONY. I am really disappointed in them and wouldn´t recommend sony to anyone.....

  • how floating touch is activated in sola and is there gyro sensor in this phone??

  • No,there will not be problems if you update to the ICS andriod version with''sony pc companion''.In fact the ICS version is pretty cool.I have installed it using the sony pc companion and OMG not a single problem on my sony xperia sola,infact it's working better than the gingerbread andriod version.So i would say its safe to upgrade to the ICS version........Go ahead,i have updated to andriod ICS version for about a month now without a single problem.Gooooooooo aaaahhhheeeeaaaaddddd ,it safe to go andriod ICS......

  • Heyy everyone...!! M from Pakistan. The Official ICS update to Icecream Sandwich just got released here. Just need your recommendations that whether should I update the ICS? Are there any problems that I may face after? What would you recommend me?

  • 100% true

  • Is the phone really so bad after upgrading it to ics?

  • solar phone sim tray pin danged what I do?

  • Go for xperia SP it is a solid midrange up for the average user cheers

  • i am using Xperia sola since last 8 months but facing some problems as follows: 1. Slow processing hanged many times. 2. Call disconnected automatically and after disconnect network was gone for few seconds so that other party unable to contact me and give messages that my phone was switched off. 3.I am the average user of my phone. 4. Is upgrade it worthy? Dear friends please help me in this matter any suggestions ???

  • i have been use this phone since 1 year and its still good.i dont know why so people are complaining a lot.

  • I've been using this phn for 8 months and so far i hvn't faced any problem frm this phn.Idk what made some people complain about this phone, maybe they just don't like the phone or expect it to function as a higher end phone from this lower mid range phone. I'm using ics rom frm sony and in developer option(available after ics update) I toggled force 2d gpu rendering for a smooth scrolling ( this may cause some apps to be unstable like few games i haven't face with them so far though)and from background process limit I have selected as "1" to save some ram. make sure you reboot your phone once a day to clear out the cached memory. using a task killed may speed up your phone but best way to clear cached memory is rebooting but ofc that is just imo. when it comes to playing heavy games such as dead trigger 2,asphalt 7, make sure u reboot ur phn and thn select background process limit to 1 to minimize lag and to have a smoother gaming experience. battery isn't strong in this phn. With mid use (few calls, alot of txting, few web browsing and like 30mins of gaming) i manage to pull around 12-14hrs which is more thn enough for me. there is also a standby mode to extend the battery life although this feature has a bug which won't make the led notification light work properly. there is always google to find solutions for the phn's problem and also to find the way to get the maximum use of the phone.

  • Do you know how to use and what brand of external webcam for sony sola. Because sony sola don't have front camera..

  • very very usless garbage phone i was trying to sell it but no one liked it so i gave it to my made

  • Till update was mid grade, after upgrade - i dont use it anymore, lot of bugs - it can become very slow, till restarts itself, it can call without showing who is callinga and without posibility to answer, also another random minor glitches like delays in scrolling. Can't sugest it. Camera in dark is unusable.

  • Everyone should update to the unofficial jelly bean firmware. The most stable rom i ever flash. Untouched rom. Non modified. Port from sony xperia go. The custom kernel is great in battery life. Still dont encounter any bug. They also provide bug fix. Trust me. This is the best rom i ever flash. Thanks to munjeni(developer)for your hardwork.

  • i have bought one sony xperia sola mobile from singapore. the battery of the mobile is not working. i have tried with many sony outlets in kolkata and their reply is any sony mobile purchased outside india will not be serviced in india and as such i am unable to change the battery.

  • after the 4.0 ics update the phone is terrible. horrible battery life, lag all over the place and freezes randomly. dont buy it, the meager amount of ram ruines the phone. the thing has srsly managed to piss me off. never buy anything from sony, as they obviously cant be bothered to update and fix the software of their older models. 4 out of 10.

  • After the upgrade to ICS, this phone is absolutely unusable, and Sony doesn't bother releasing updates to fix the serious problems (especially low ram). I will never buy a Sony smartphone again

  • Hi,i upgraded to version:2.3.7..Charging lasts about 1 hour and has a 16 hours performanse(from 8 to 24) Using long hours of whatsapp,about 1,5 hour talking and some light programs. Using GreenPower. It shuts the internet signal scheduled by you. Must use program for all phones..

  • Can some please tell me exactly about the battery life? Is it really worst or average? I am an average user. If mobile data always enable it can last for how long? Ang how about charging? Is it fast?

  • my problem is that - during call listening problem happen to other party. what is solution?

  • my problem is that - during call listening problem happen to other party. what is solution?

  • By the way, i think you can't downgrade the version of your phone once you upgrade it...

  • I could suggest that you root it. Am not sure if someone already made root program that doesn't need to unlock bootloader (root requires to unlock bootloader). Unlocking BL would forfeit the warranty of the Phone. Even if you have a Locking BL program, third party software will still pop up that BL has undergone unlocking. I own one for a year now and I root it 3 months ago. so far, so good. If you are interested in this procedure, this site may help you understand how it works. Just search "xda-developers" on your yahoo or you go to www.xda-developer.com

  • yes u can do that

  • Feel for u girl! Well here are the few things u may try: 1. Press Power ON + Volume up key , i am sure this will awake your phone. 2. Go to settings>>Apps>>All select Maps and select disable. 3. You can repeat this for apps like Google+,Android Live wallpaper,Emerland,Gold and all other live wallpapaer apps. 4. You may want to repeat this for all the apps u don't really need. 5. Dont install any anti-virus or task manager as they use too much of CPU and make ur device slow. 6. U may again Setting>>Developer options>>Background process limit set this to 3-4. I personally won't recommend this but try if it works. 7. Hope this solves your problem if it doesn't write me on [email protected]

  • Phone works fine with gingerbread OS once i upgraded it to Ice cream sandwich it started hanging, slowed, started heating. Do not use this phone.

  • guys all low end android devices hangs..i too used sola it hangs a lot then i sold it and bought lumia 620...windows devices never hangs go for windows

  • I bought this phone, not even a year ago but sometime around at the ending week of September 2012. I was really happy at my purchase at that time. Sola was sleek and very nice at first, then not even a week old with me at that time, it hanged and didn't know what to do since it has an unremovable battery. Fortunately, that stopped for some time but a few months got by, of course it started getting slower and lagger and much worse, Just this July 2013 I think, I was checking my Instagram and it hanged. It doesnt respond to any buttons even the lock buttons anymore and it just turned off. The worst problem was I cannot restart it anymore. I cannot even charge it too. The line indicating that it was charging was not lighting so I knew I made a mistake buying this phone, but I still tried to open it so one day the charge light opened and i was happy that it's okay again but after a month, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. And now it is September, I can't open my phone again and I feel that it is already a BIG waste of money if I let it be repaired. It didn't even last me a year with this sola. Conclusion: I felt like I was fooled and I am very disappointed.

  • Guys dnt go with dis mob.. i just buyed dis mob nt even two month.. it hangs, heats etc totally waste

  • Hi Illikkal, Pls tell me how to root my sola ? Secondly, maybe i will remove some of the Sony apps that comes with it. Have been using this phone for a year plus and now it hangs and lag a lot, maybe due to its 512ram and running on ics.

  • why xperia sola hangs?

  • what do you mean by du?? i have my sola for almost 1year and still it is good to go even it is drop several times and the battery life still reach up to 4 days.. yeah..

  • i am using sola for the past 10 months.i bought this phone after searching lot of review in this site.but i am disappointed with the battery back up.sony is cheating us by providing low capacity battery for this phone.recently i changed my sim to du and now iam getting good battery life.can anybody explain how it happenes?both connection shows full range.anyway i am satisfied now,but never buy this phone plssss.

  • worst touchscreen

  • removing system apps doesnt mean you can't use it anymore..(like FB). install later it from play store.. it will not be a system app anymore..

  • Dyu min I remov FB forever!?

  • every android is a bit laggy..ofcourse sola too.. but its a midrange, anounced @2012. If you want to speed up consider this 1.Root your phone 2.Debloat(remove unwanted sony made apps) 3.Don't install any task/ram managers.Instead Supercharge(An executable script that makes your phone unbelievably fast) 4.You will never complain after supercharging

  • I am a Xperia sola user. I use this phone since last year. The problem u will encounter is it lag and hang often. Make sure that u don't full the internal storage as it will make your phone slower.

  • Stay away from this phone, it stucks toooooo much! I regret buying it! These are some reasons not to buy it! Of course there are more but thanks to a person on youtube who posted this i brought them to you. Touch screen becomes hard to operate when connected via USB Internet browsing is almost impossible because the keyboard takes ages to come up Takes for ever to make a call and answer calls (soo much lag) Have to power off and connect to wall charger otherwise battery wont charge up Weak Wi-Fi signal and after a while it has a one bar and no internet connection (even if you are next to the Wi-Fi source) and if you try to switch it off then nothing happens it does not turn off! Extreme battery consumption when data are on, battery drains for 19% to 0% countdowning in seconds! Defenately, this phone is the worst phone and all these sony phones! AGAIN STAY AWAY! I need a anger management lesson. THANK YOU SONY!

  • The poorest battery life in the world. To worsen the situation, sony made the phone a non removeable battery. I regret buying this phone. I bought it because of the ICS update sony promised but I never knew that was a scam from sony because they never fulfil their promise at the promised of time.

  • Guys disable built-in apps from settings>app>.all app option and see the rocking performance ... And I recommend to disable Facebook first from which u can see the big difference

  • xperia sola is a beautiful phone. i have a white piece. it is durable and is suitable for rough use. yes the ram is only 512 mb and 380 mb usable but its enough to run some hd games and casual games effortlessly as its a dual core chipset..i have rooted my phone and use a custom rom which is much better than stock which is quite slow after ics update

  • check in xdadevelopers for a more suitable rom...

  • had anyone root your sola after ics update? how ics work after root?

  • it hangs often. im bored. minimum 1gb ram is very necessary to perform a mobile smarter.

  • WARNING!!!! before buy check headset or handsfree orginal or not box sticker printed model number of headset dealers has removed orginal headset and put local one into the box , be carefull check quality with equlizer before buy handsfree

  • gprs download speed slow, compare with other device i used in 2g area over GPRS. fb pages load very slow, but im using sony ericsssion txt CK13I fb pages loaded fast than sola, no 3G coverage in that area

  • if YOUR area dosent have 3G dont buy this,. i have used in 2G areas , very bad data speed, compaird with same time same place with other device, in sppecification mention supported 100kbps, but actually that not when using in 3G area thats better than samsung devices non removebale LI ion battery. expensive , if u replaced

  • sola or xperia m???

  • i am planning to buy a sony xperia sola.now a days i am using sony xperia neo l. but it is too slow. i think sola is better than neo l. if u r using sola please tell me what r the problems will rise while using it.

  • Can you tell me how to root xperia sola

  • It's a beautiful Mobile somewhat because his Memory is low

  • How can I update its OS to Jelly bean from Ginger bread without PC Companion? as PC Companion requires a high speed computer which I don't have.

  • That's a normal problem in touch screen phones. If you haven't tried reformatting/factory reset your phone, please try; just make sure you back up all your data/files. If it doesn't work, bring your phone to Sony customer service (or do this first to be more safe).

  • Settings -> About phone -> software update For me ICS is better than Gingerbread, especially for the glove mode, but others (heavy gamers, I think) prefer GB.

  • When they launched Sola, it has Ginger Bread OS. Right now, ICS out from the box.

  • Stability issues, according to Sony.

  • Because apps are working even when you're not using them. Your case is a bit extreme compare to my past experiences though.

  • I'm pretty sure it can install instagram. Instagram requires 2.2 and up OS.

  • Generally, android phones drains faster than regular phones. And since the battery is built-in, I suggest you always bring your charger. I've been using this phone for almost 9 months now and I have some problems but they were all fixed; in worst cases, I did a factory reset. Overall, this is really a good phone. It made me stopped looking for the elusive "better phone".

  • I'm satisfied with this phone, but really, it depends on the user's activity and expectations.

  • if you upgrade it to 4.0 version, wifi will not work properly.

  • hi, guys i wan't to buy sony xperia sola mobile! so please tell me how is it working

  • dear friend, I have been using this phone for about 8-9 months. and my friends use to operate my sola roughly. even after all this problem doesn't happen like this. well I can't say that it has a very good battery backup. but still it is a good phone. the problem I face with it is that it has less ram, so applications consumes most of the ram and phone gets slower. if your phone is still under the guarantee period, immediately replace it. or if not then just sell it to a fool. trust me.

  • i also have this prob

  • best budjet phone for me and ics works great for me. any one with touch problems when charging should email me on [email protected] for a fix.

  • The worst phone that I have ever seen. Don't buy this phone and if you have one don't update to ICS.

  • The worst phone that I have ever seen. Don't buy this phone and if you have one don't update to ICS.

  • use advance task killer to save battery backup

  • nice. games work smoothly. dont install ics. it may be a reson for slow down your phone speed.I highly recommended buy this phone.because it has many advanced technology feature.

  • I have a lot of problem using this phone. First I cannot hear the other side on call. secondly the display screen turn black and come back to home page itself. The volumn is not that much high. Infact I doubt that my phone is fake, by the company.

  • When u install games in internal memmory 4n become very slow. Ics running. But performance 80%. Have fallen several times but screen not damaged. Recomended for rough use. Can remove back cover easily. Also sim change easy

  • Try resetting it or re-installing the ROM. That should do it.

  • Android ICS 4.04 is very bad for Sola.

  • This phne suckd me . .it sometimes switches off,then I have to wait a lot as the power key does not work but aftr more than an hour it switches on . .it also han gs up a lot during receivng a cl . .what should I do ??

  • i am very much excited. i am soon having my own sony ericson sola.. :)

  • im using sola for 7 months ... its starting to become less touch responsive ... for example ... i will open fb app .. but the beside fb will open ... its also hard to move the menu .. opens apps on its own ...guys wat do u think..?? ..

  • Boost up your sola using "Clean Master" and "Seeder". This two app combined really did a great job. Smooth and really nice. Use the Clean Master twice a day to get rid the unwanted app that running in the background. And don't forget to use the seeder. Really satisfied with my phone now. I'm running 4.0.4 btw.

  • does ics 4.0 available in sony care in india plz reply me?

  • This is not a common problem, Go to settings/developer options/ and then set a limit for background running apps maximum 3 to 4. If the problem persists, press volume up key before receiving ur call. Let me know if you get any better option.

  • Liked ur review! Loved ur english!!

  • hey guys i wanna buy this phone can some one tell me how is battery back up and i heard its battery is non replaceable so does it mean do we need to throw this phone when battery gone bad if warranty is over and what happens when it gets hang we cant remove battery? thanks waiting for reply....

  • go to tubemate.net, download it, and after that you can easily download youtube videos

  • yess, go to the xperia center, if your phone is in warranty then they will downgrade it, free of cost in one day, otherwise they will charge nearly 3 dollar

  • its because of its low RAM memory... its a common problem but its THE GREATEST phone which comes within 20K... should preserve it.. and as far as RAM is concerned, u can go for task managers like ES task managers and all...

  • i dont know what to say... its gorgeous,,,, its just that it always hangs up. it occured to me trice in a row and everytime i have it to be checked by a technician... i dont know what seems to be the problem.... it gets to my nerves.... its irritating... after haning up... then it turned blocked out....

  • thats why i have not dumped the ph till now because all the aspects of the phone is just amazing except for the battery standby. no live wallpaper, data transfer off the whole time, Display was even off obviously as i was sleeping. and today after using for 20 min whats app, 15 min video playback, 30 min games, 10 min surfing, it lasted for 6hrs now this is the condition its only 5 months old i am thinking what i would do it battery goes even more crazy it is not even replaceable

  • Dear Lucky ur screen usage is high..may b u r using some live screen saver that is eating up the battery.... I m using this fone for ard 6 months and have not faced the problem as of now. only prob I faced is of signal drop sometimes. otherwise I ll call it a nice fone..touch response and screen live up to the expectations (gorilla screen). Sound quality is awesome. picture quality(photo& video) is also gr8.

  • I have been using this phone for 8 months now.So here is my experience: 1. Battery easily lasts for a day with data usage ON and when data is OFF it goes upto 36-40hrs. As i have seen some users are complaining that it drains from 100 to zero during stand by only....Yes thats true..but i have faced that only once or twice and when i checked the power consumption it showed that Android OS consumed 82% of the battery.The best solution for this is to keep the DATA OFF while sleeping.Thats what i did and i never faced this again. :) 2. The camera's picture quality is average but video quality is somewhat nice. 3.Screen is the best part of this phone...you will just love it. 4. Lag issues are more frequent during Data usage...otherwise its fine.But believe me when it lags you can even slam it on the wall...but be patient and just restart it ;) 5.Gaming performance is great.In this area Mali400 has done its job nicely. 6.Till now i haven't faced any call drop or signal loss issues.Dont know why people keep saying that. or maybe its lucky me. 7.Audio quality is good.Default earphones are average...but i use Seinheisser's PMX 80 and they give me some xtraordinary results. 8. Lag problems are due to low RAM...so just root your phone and enjoy :)

  • Guys!! HELP ME..

  • that a standby time .you are talking about working time ....i think...

  • You should not have too many apps runnin all the time plus games really drain. I formatted my phone an removed a lot of useless apps(they keep drainin your battery after activated). Now my phone delivers 24-28 hours on normal usage.

  • Go to settings - power management - unselect extended standby mode.

  • Try reformatting your phone. An don't jam your memory space,plus don't keep many apps that are always runnin. My phone was really laggin but now it's butterly smooth :)

  • If you need a good phone with a really nice display - for indoors you should go for Sola. But if you are interested in a outdoor phone with rough play skin you should go for the GO.

  • The Sola's display is really awesome so pictures an movies look real nice on it. The sound is good too. But the down point is the battery life, with optimal use it lasts long, with games an movies it drains quickly. I suggest you go for the Xperia L

  • GUYS! PLZZ PLZZ HELP ME OUT! I am experiencing touch problems with my phone. I can't even unlock it. The touch has become so hard. :( I even repaired it from the sony pc companion. But nothing changed. Icannot afford other phone. So, Kindly please tell me how to fix this problem?? :(

  • The battery life of Sola is crap...Specs say Stand-by time: Up to 470 h (2G) / Up to 475 h (3G). I never got more than 12 hrs. Its irritating.

  • So, here's my opinion when upgraded my Sola to ICS. "Not bad at all". Many sola users said that ICS update is crap. Then i take the risk and decided to give ICS a try. Unresposive touch screen and lag when using keyboard problem that i got when still running GB is now gone with ICS update. Phone performance is great (better than GB in my opinion). My phone just running fine with ICS update until now. I even added Xperia Yuga homescreen mod and made my Sola even more awesome. Battery drain a little faster when in ICS update (but i believe that's because i'm using Xperia Yuga homescreen that really drain battery). Overall, great phone for a middle-range class. ICS update not as bad as they said.

  • Normally devices have 2 types of memory, 1) Internal or Device and 2) External or memory card. But it has system of 3 crap memory, 1) Intrnal; Device 2) Internal SDCard and 3) External SDCard or memory card. Really and really bogus thing about this device is you can not use the removable memory card to install apps of any kind. It's just good as a pen-drive like use to store files. It also doesn't support wireless ad-hoc connection. All I want is to get rid of it...

  • Power button + down volume rocker.. To restart power button + up volume locker..

  • How can I solve the problem bro?

  • Just bout 5 months ago I bought This phone...But now it is lagging a lot...I mean it "A LOT"...already done settings reset multiple times...but it gets back to same...and my brother is calling it lag-droid instead android!!

  • With a budget of 15K i would suggest you to go for Xperia L,4.3"screen,1GB RAM,8GB internal storage(5.8GB user available)8MP camera,Dualcore with a good 1750mAh battery,i think that would be a good choice.

  • My budget is upto 15K . Which one wld you recommend ??

  • I've used both Xperia J and Sola,J is the crappiest phone in the xperia series with horrible camera and freezing issues.This one is better than the latter,camera is good(only if you do not update it to ICS)sound quality is ok,but the battery life sucks so that's a hurdle in playing games like Temple Run or Subway Surfers.I sold it recently cause i was having problems with it's ear piece,took it to the service center but nothing happened.Better go for SP,it would be a good choice.

  • Hey can anyone help me ?? I am confused whether to take xperia J or sola . I am not a huge Gamer but play games like temple run and subway surfers . I require a decent camera , battery life , smooth performance with a pretty Good sound both in earphones as well as speaker ( loudspeaker )

  • make your updates..

  • Games work smoothly even high definition ones. But the battery back-up isn't the best. My phone can play games for 5 hours at a stretch on a full charge. Otherwise it lasts two days. :)

  • Clear your memory. If you stuff it or have apps that are constantly running they slow the phone down. I removed a few apps an now it works jus fine :)

  • My phone is very slow. Lag most of the time. Please help to resolve this problem.

  • Is this phone good for games like subway surfers? How long will it last on one full charge?

Excellent camera quality, nice music quality (both with earphone and speaker),absolutely no lag (except just after exiting heavy games, but only for few seconds), games run quite smoothly.Still I'm running on GB bcz there were lots of negative reviews after ICS update. UI and Screen quality surpass xperia J, neo L, Go, Miro. If you are satisfied with 3.7" screen with no front facing camera... this is THE PHONE for you.. Thank you SONY..

  • sola is running unofficial jellybean bro.

  • All of the above you mentioned are right but if you try rooting your phone and installing a custom Rom all your problems would be solved...

  • Hey bro ? please do some serious research before posting false info about Xperia Sola or anything else because I've successfully rooted my Xperia Sola an also installed more than a dozen CUSTOM ROMS like Cyanogen mod,AOKP an the list goes on and on and it's amazing how this phone can handle all of this and many more customizations... please feel free to pm me on my email [email protected] if you think I'm wrong.... c ya.

  • Who is using ICS.. Please tell me how is it?.. Set me a link so that I can get it if it is nice.. Thanks

  • u first aread my comment and then say anything about xperia sola and don't ever try to compare these worst micromax phones with sony phones

  • keep ur mouth shut xperia sola is best in it's range & moreover xperia j has a single core processor which is too laggy to use & yes aphone with hd camera is obviouly good & in this generation who want's to carry a handycam a phone is enough so they are called smartphones and in future they will easily beat the clarity of digital cameras. SO GO ON I WOULD RECOMMEND ALL TO BUY THIS PHONE & GET ENTERTAINED WITH A SENSE OF MAGIC WITH IT'S FLOATING TOUCH TECHNOLOGY and it WORK'S FUULY IN ICS.

  • sorry frd.Xperia sola will not get the JB update.only ICS 4.0.4. :-(

  • I wanna upgrade my Xperia sola to jellybean please give me some steps about it. my ID is [email protected]

  • I love Sony phones I have experia z experia go iPhone but experia sola is a different phone the features of this phone is awesome Sony is the best!!!!!!!

  • Xperia Sola is an excellent device. I got this phone in Feb 2013 and it has worked smoothly so far. And it is far better than other brands in the same price range. Great battery, wonderful sound and picture quality. Call volume is also clear and loud which I find it rarely in other phones. Only drawback is the limitation with the type of video files that can be played in this device. This device plays only MP4 files and that with the preferred codec settings. But I solved this by using the MoBoPlayer application. Camera settings have to be fidgeted with to get the desired pictures (guess that applies to all phone cameras) My only advise is not to upgrade the OS cos this can make the device lag. All in all a worthy device for above average use.

  • It is good phone and upgradable to Android 4.0.4

  • never! u can flash custom roms!

  • This is a really nice phone. I'm using this for 7 months. It's better not to upgrade the OS, then it become very slow. It happened to me, when the phone is connected to the PC, it was poped up saying that new updates available. Since it was suggested by the Sony PC suite, I proceed with updating the OS. Now the phone is very slow, using a Task Killer application to maintain processing speed :-( Once you update the OS, you can't compliment on that. The next big issue is drop down the battery level with no time. For last 7 months it happened 4 times for me. Sometimes battery level goes down from 65% to 10% with no time even the phone is on stand by mode :-( I really like Sony series & can be recommended, the, but u need to have attention on battery level and the phone speed. :-)

  • We need jelly bean for this...

  • Hi can u also help me downgrading my sola from ICS to gingerbread.. thanks

  • nop

  • how to see browsed history

  • Those who are using this Sola, give u r comments, it will be very useful for to those who r wants this mobile plz. . . .

  • generaly its a nice fone.havent had any problem with it my only two problems are its unremovable battery and some apps dont work coz of the country am in.so how long does the battery last before i dispose it off and some thing should be done about the apps that dont work like the play movie app

  • Very good and nice phone. I have been using sola for about 2 and a half months with no lags and hanging. Good phone for heavy gaming like asphalt 7, nfs mw ,eternity warriors 2,etc. Its most good advantage is its floating touch display, due to which one can operate the phone 2cm above the screen so you dont have to touch the screen. love u sola

  • I bought Sola 4 months ago, It was the worst phone I got. - I haven't received ICS upgrade till the moment. - slow response. - phone stops responding many times, and had to force shut down. - many time, trying to call but the screen hangs out and I have to wait for a minute to make a call. - there is a lock screen widget for media player that sometimes plays by it self, I'm trying to find a way to disable it. - battery never teach the end of day. Don't bye this phone. Regards, Omar

  • Friends, here there were different types of comments, so those who r using sola, please give u r comment, suggessions, it really helpful to many frnds. . . . . . .

  • Frnd u r saying that sola is bad, but many frnds r saying it is good, which is true? And plz say where u buy this sola.!

  • Hai frnd. . . U r sayng that, sola is good, with good battery backup, but more frnds here r giving difrnt comments , which is real nd true..?

  • Xperia J it isn't like sola. sola is greater than J in many features

  • guys is sola upgradable to JB..........????????????????????sumone told me recently that there is a JB update for sola....

  • you have the compare option on this site

  • Xperia Sola and Xperia J are kind of the same, the only difference is the screen size and the video quality. If you think that having HD video capturing capability the phone becomes awesome, then its wrong. If you really want to shoot videos than you can go on and buy a handy cam with far better quality. Even i have the xperia Sola but im not happy with its processing speed and battery backup, if u use that phone normally in a day you might have to charge it twice or thrice daily and without using it you will have to charge it daily. It has got the worst battery backup which will really annoy you. So in my opinion if you are confused between Sola and J then you should probably go for J becoz its design is better and its battery backup is way better. So please dont go with the HD stuff its just diverting, you can go with the Canvas HD ive come across that phone :) and its a good and fast processor phone. And if you really want to buy a phone which comes in the range of J and Sola then you can go for Samsung I8552 Galaxy Quattro, HTC Desire XDS, LG optimus L7 II P715 or Canvas HD A116

  • Hey all sony Xperia sola is ofcoz a good smartphone!!!!!! Bt i have some prblm wen playing games like dead triggr as the scree begins to blink is there anyone wid the issuee????

  • settings -> power management -> enable extended battery mode

  • My Last phone was the HTC Legend which by now was showing serious strain (600Mhz & 384Ram). As I had almost everything on the SD card and wanted a relatively small phone and cheap phone the Sony Sola fitted the profile. All i can say, in comparison to the HTC the Sony is very poor phone. Poor battery life, bad phone book, limited home screens, sony crap ware, nfc not working, camera button not working, unresponsive (home, back and list) buttons are just few of the features that plague this phone. Not mentioning the locking and resetting of the phone when users use's the browser/apps for too long. Were it not for the fact that i spent 8hrs rooting, deleting crap ware and setting up the phone i wold have gone back to my HTC in an instance. If you are looking for a small but powerful phone please look else where.

  • Hello all my friends . i think that sola mobile is more than a very wonderful mobile. i think that it is a very valuable one indeed.

  • Hello there..there is no chance for you to delete one of that screens. It is default of Xperia Home Launcher. Sad to say, other upgraded Xperia Launcher can modify home screens. Version 2.0.5b for example, used in Xperia Z is more customizable. I do not know if same story when your sola is on ICS. Try to download some other great launchers. I am using now 91 Launcher, and it is free in Playstore.. It is great! Worth to try!

  • hey guys.. if you are confused by what smartphone is better . sola or go? i must say choose sola.. why? its because youll really get what u pay for.. dont compare it to expensive smartphones.. see the price range guys! im using this now for 3 months .and so far so good! however its just an advice, the choice is yours! :D

  • hi santosh you want to unofficial jb Rom for sola then go to this site

  • Hi sola user.... Have anyone got ftf jellybean firmware? Because my phone got hang after update ics...

  • I want to upgrade my Xperia sola to unofficial jelly bean, any1 tell me how to upgrade with detail procedure. and which country?

  • Thank you so much for your have fully world. But I'm so sorry I got the xperia p. Thank you so much.. Please help me is good or bad

  • hello guys i am still struk with gingerbread and i want to upgrade to ics and as it has lot of problems so please list the cons after upgrading ics and amout of free ram, battery life. i live in india and my mob shows 'an update available 6.0.b.3.184' but when i connect to comp the pc companion says 'an update available 6.1.1.b.1.54' so plzzz tell me which 1 shud i go for and which is stable tnxx

  • Before comparing JB to ICS, you have to know: 1- JB is unofficial so you'll have to unlock the bootloader to install it and may void your warranty 2- Glove mode and illumination bar will be disabled Otherwise, JB is supposed to have ICS bugs fixed and may be faster (I didn't try it myself) Hope this helps.

  • I didn't try the P but from its specs, I think it's way better than Sola (Except for the floating touch which is only in Sola and not any other phone worldwide) Also note that they are not in the same price range.

  • friends please help me which is good Xperia sola or Xperia p???? n why best??? please help me thanks!!!!!!

  • i dont care about screen or gaming i want a smartphone that last long should i go for sony xperia sola or xperia go please help someone i am cofused

  • Oh...I see..Well I guess they have no plan to update our unit to ICS. But i have no idea to flash. I am little afraid of what will happen if i did it wrong. Do you have the same build#? Official ICS is for build# 6.1. something... Will it be okay to put this ROM to our unit?

  • friends please help me which is good Xperia sola or Xperia p???? n why best??? please help me thanks!!!!!!

  • illumination bar light is also not working in jelly bean

  • After installing unofficial Jelly bean stock rom ,i have upgraded to android 4.1.2 ,now sola runs at much faster speed with increase in free available ram , jb runs smoothly and small bugs got fixed.The only bug i got after jb is floating touch not available in jb and illumination bar light not working.rest all is fine.Go for jb.

  • Floating touch works on GB in very limited situations like some links in browser but in the ICS it works in the entire UI and all apps

  • Sola Pros: 1-better and brighter display (265 ppi pixel density) while go has (165 ppi) 2-Bigger screen (3.7" vs 3.5") with 480x854 while go has only 320x480 display 3-Floating touch and glove mode 4-NFC GO Pros: Dust and water resistance. Cons: 1-Both have average and non-removable battery. 2-Both have only 512MB ram which is relatively small for a dual core processor. 3-Both won't receive Jelly bean officially (Only ICS). So if the dust and waterproof doesn't matter to you, go straight to the sola for this price range

  • Regarding speed, the overall performance for an average user is very acceptable but for a heavy gamer, please note that the ICS uses more ram than the GB so a game that requires free ram > 120 mb may not work fine

  • Same thing happened to me in Egypt and most probably Sony won't release ICS to middle east countries (Arabic edition) that's why I had to manually download and flash it.

  • Yes sometimes you can't unlock the screen in normal mode when connected to charger in ICS but unlocks and works fine in glove mode, so not a big deal

  • sony xperia go or sola please help

  • Can someone tell me if u guys get ICS updated of Xperia Sola here in Saudi Arabia?? My unit built # is 6.0.B.3.184. When i connected my phone in PC thru PC Companion, it says that i've got the latest update..

  • Hi..can anyone please tell me the change in performance(speed,gaming etc) in this phone when upgraded to Android 4.0 ??? Please answer.,

  • But xU has front camera,

  • Is it true that the screen goes crazy when the charger is plugged? Is there any way to avoid this, like disabling glove mode? Otherwise it is a serious failure.

  • every one said that don't upgrade it to android 4 but is not you phone that have problem with android ice cream sandwich. is your phone pre install program. I upgrade it too android 4 and it work perfectly. just follow instruction. 1- uninstall all the program that can be uninstall in app menu. 2- then format your internal storage 3- then up grade it to ice cream sandwich. 4 install the latest app that you uninstall lately. *don't forget to back up your phone.(contact... not the apps)

  • Sola is better than U, cuz it has better design, floating touch and other specs in both are same so go for sola.

  • The phone works just fine for me. The only snag it has is that the soft touch pads cease from time to time. Please how do I correct this? I have not upgraded to ICS.

  • I used flashtool to flash the official rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?­t=2162907) If you want official roms go to: The best rom I used for my sola is Central Europe: Remember to run factory reset after upgrading and have fun with the new features :)

  • is the floating touch work in xperia sola on anriod version 2.3(G.B),??

  • i dont know

  • which flash apps are useing

  • How to do it

  • Hello, What suggest me! what kind of interrogative statement is this? Where did you study English?

  • hello, I found that jelly bean is available for sola in websites. is it true? if available replay bcoz ics is worst. thanx...

  • i m going to buy it in this week ................ have any problem to upgrade to ICS.4?????? Plz suggest me....... thank u

  • i bought sola 2 months ago at first it is nice with the using but when i upgraded to ics then the software problems starts notification ringtone error,camera starts slowly and main is the overheating it is frustrated to me by my personal xperience micromax canvas is best

  • Sola is much better, the only con is the non removable battery. Otherwise go for Sola: 1- Larger display 2- Floating touch & Glove mode (Not available in any Sony mobile even Z) 3- NFC. If you live in middle east, you'll have to fash ICS manually which can be easily done from xda developer if you want it as Sony didn't release a middle east ICS version

  • Try to use SUS or pc companion to repair your phone. If it doesn't get better, flash GB using flashtool

  • I flashed ICS on my Sola with flashtool and the phone performs fine. ICS cons: 1-512MB ram is a bit small so you shouldn't install many apps that work together (most of the time the available ram is about 100-130 MB) 2- Camera takes about 1-2 more seconds than in GB Pros: 1-The Glove mode in the entire UI is very impressive (I can use the phone all time without touching it!!) 2-Battery performance is not bad at all when activating the "Extend standby mode" in power management (it last for more than a day with 3G network on all day) 3-Option to limit background processes from settings for better battery performance. 4-Can disable many unusable per-installed apps from settings so no need to root your phone.

  • This phone is utterly rubbish once you hv upgrade it to ICS. It hangs and freeze all the time, the browser takes century to load and worst you can't even answer your call even you swipe answer!! WTF.. The hardware wasn't prepare to take on ICS, is akin to fitting a V12 engine into a 1986 minicooper and the result? bang!

  • You have to go to wireless settings> mobile network settings> network preference. There will be gsm only or umts/wcdma. Select thats not gsm. I think thats how it works. Ofcourse you need to be sure that your sim is 3g.

  • How can i operate 3g in my unit. I already talk to customer service of my network provider. I also follow their instruction on how to enable 3g. It seems that their instruction not working. Can anyone help me....

  • This is the best phone to buy in this price range.it has many features while others doesn't worth for it's price.i'm using this since 8 months and still working fine.didn't gave me any error.gaming experience in sola is awesome.can play any game without lagging.This is a good phone to buy.finally,not only this phone,every phone depends on how you use it.

  • there is no jelly bean update dear phone is good in this range other phones are just taking money without features like HTC samsung nokia go for it and donot update to ICS use Ginger bread only tc

  • What kind of usb otg cable merk that I used to connect my phone with usb flashdisk???

  • No, i have talked to the manager of the service center and he said that the phone has been dispatched by sony on 14 may and may be reaching here in 1 or two days.

  • It doesn't work in ics

  • how is the floating touch in ics?

  • Its good that he is your known, but the replacement depends upon company and not on service center, if company will approve your replacement then only you will get a new handset otherwise they will repair your old one..

  • friends try usb otg(on the go) or usb host.. both r same.. u need a otg cable to connect mouse, keyboard, pendrive, usb harddisk.. any usb accessories.. it's so useful..

  • thank god. the service center's manager was my known, otherwise i might have faced the same problem as yours.

  • you'd be lucky if they will replace yours, they kept mine for 2 months and finally handed over me the same mobile saying that the fault has been removed.. You should have gone with the xperia p or s advance they are far superior than this piece of crap

  • tried several different ROMs, both stock & CM, and if you are looking for a good android experience go for a 1GB RAM phone. this one is too slow. Xperia P is far better.

  • ICS is better and has more features. It also depends on the application you are using.

  • i bought experia sola two days back and it got brick on the next day when i tried to play a video that i captured with its camera. After that i handed over the phone to the sony service center, and they said me that the phone will be replaced in the next 10 days. Dont know whether this has happened with me only or others have suffered too. Very much disappointed by sony, but happy to see the coustomer service. Hoping that the next phone will be good.

  • hello, i have updated my sola to ICS but i think the camera went slow in capturing photos unlike in GB. and aside from this battery drains fast. what should i do sir? kindly advise

  • bought sola 2 months back.. happy with all performance.. battery too laaast longer for a day with heavy usage..(charge it 100% and discharge till 5-7%... do this cycle for 4 times, after this process, it's sure li-ion 'll induce the ions).. so sola can satisfy all user's requirement.. that too with a little price range..

  • I buy this phone on June 24 2012. Still well so far. Battery easy to low if you browsing in 3 hours.. If you want the battery always fine don't charge when you are online. Click on power saver too. The floating touch are amazing sometimes when I'm browsing I don't have to touch to open a link or pictures . I love this phone although no front facing camera. The primary camera was great in outdoor and the macro not bad. The video was good but can't be pause. Also when you play the musics with speaker 2.1 is good. ;-)

  • i use it now. And comment using it. It's battery performance is good. 3 hours net. Moderate fo heavy use. 3 hours and down from 100 - 50.. So not so low. it just nice. If you play games. It can stang nearly a day. Some heavy games. So just nice

  • its better than old ics....wait for update..devs are working to make another bug free rom

  • according to ur reviews and comments, vote for sola to increase voting result.. and am a sola user..

  • Well then just go for sola. I assure you, its an amazing phone. You won't regret buying it

  • s3 mini and xperia v (out of budget)not available in india :(

  • Get the xperia v instead. Its really a good phone with superb camera,nice Ui,bigger screen,water and dust resistant and most of all very smooth and fast internet browsing. Its a little bit expensive than sola but its worth it.

  • go for samsung galaxy s 3 mini

  • yup there are many bt still lacks in many prospectives. 1) htc desire x - no front cam bt, smoothher as lumia 2) xperia j - has front cam, ics on board, better than s duos in any preference.. gd battery 1750 mah, 1ghz proccsor but runs several games without any lag. dont xpect miracles with this mob it is a singl core so lag is the factor.. 3) lg optimus l7II - 15000 , dual core, 8mp cam,0.3 secndry, no hd rec 480x854 px only, 4.3 inch scren,dual sim , 768 mb ram,jlly bean, 2450 mah bttery open flipkart and search.. 4) optimus l9- 17500 rs bt best , 2100 mah bttery ,qhd disp, 1ghz dual cre, 1gb ram, ics, 4.7 inch disp, 5mp cam wid 1080p rec..flipkart if u dnt want brand value then try canvs hd, xolo q800 these are comparable to s3 in processing quad cores, 8 mp cam, 1gb ram, 4.1.2 , frnt cam ,and hd disp of canvas hd. these are some phones which are good in my opinion u should buy a dual core one .. bcoz singl core above 10k is useless and u will cry opening even contacts take 5-10 sec believe me wat do u want wid frnt cam it only works wid 3g or wifi, 3g is so expnsive appx 1gb for 250-300 on any netwrk, and if u have to use wifi then better use ur laptop... choice is yrs....

  • never meant to offend u....sola doesnt have front cam...only thing which is making me think twice...can u suggest any other phone apart from s advance or sola...620 forum shows many problems with win ph 8 so am worried..50% give positive feedback and 50 negative feedback so really confused...any other htc,samsung or sony phone around 15 k which meets my requirements...front cam(even vga would do),reasonable processing power,good sound quality from speakers and decent battery life

  • I like this phone am upgraded to ICS planning upgrade for Jelly bean :-)

  • how can i update my xperia sola for jb???

  • do you also use sola

  • mogli bhai donot update sola to ics ..... sony has not yet released a bugfree ics update for xperia sola. secondly there is no jelly bean update for xperia sola brother.

  • hey does it really work or does it get better after updating plz reply wat are the steps to update xperia sola to jelly bean how is your sola working now after update plz reply

  • screenshots.....hit thanks to our dev munjeni for his hard work....it does take time for initial boot....try it...enjoy

  • Hello mates unofficial version of jelly bean has been released for our beloved xperia sola enjoy

  • then go for s adv. my cousin bought it and he is facing problems network issue - major issue, low loudspeaker considering 1500 mah battery drains faster than sola(checked).. and i also wanted to buy s adv before purchasing sola but sam stopped manufacturing it and every one said not to buy this phone or loose warranty... so these are the flaws which made my mind to sola if it is available in yr region then buy it my sola is running smoother than s adv . nfs most wanted runs more smooth in sola than s adv(checked).. so its up to you.. go ahead

  • nice phone.. i like it

  • s advance has jellybean update in india...so does it make s advance a better option when compared to sola coz jb has project butter...and would you still recommend 620 or sola comparing s adv(jb) with other two ? leaving 620 apart sgs adv has amoled display,768 mb ram against 512 in sola and also the same processor used in s2..benchmarks show performance of sgs adv is near s2 and better than sola on paper...does benchmarks really matter in real usage? file manager problem is really bothering me from choosing 620...if there was a file manager in 620 i would have alredy purchased it without troubling u ppl..any solution for filemanager issue in 620 ?

  • Do not buy this phone!...This is a complete disaster by the company... The touch on my phone completely stopped working after about 7 months...The company has taken my phone for servicing and it has been 2 months and i still have not gotten anything back. Trust me SONY service is the worst!!!

  • i like it...wish have a sola...

  • Ya it's good but is it mono or stereo?

  • its false i use sola with ics n the video recording sound is realy good

  • all three are top notch phones with advantages and dis advantages.. acc to ur concern the best display is of xperia sola 265 ppi as u can see and the mobile bravia engine. i currently using sola. all 3 phones are dual core the ram is same of lumia and sola and 768 on s adv the smoothest phone is wp8 lumia as its os is not heavy but lack of apps... sola and s adv is same both runs GB but sola comes with 4.0 update out and s adv still no jb or ics news.. camera is best on lumia... in night and video rec sola's day photography is exeptional and rec is best but in night it has lot of grains in video. for day time sola is good but at night and overall performer lumia wins.. lumia cnt be comparable with sola in day s adv has no zoom and the camera is bad so stay away. sola dsnt have front cam as dont need cam so i purchased it now if u want front cam go with 620. and s adv is outdated phn now older than sola and yup its looks are boring for looks sola wins battery - sola 1320, s adv - 1500 but drains faster than sola, lumia- 1320 runs max than both. overall sola 7/10 pros: great performance, touch, looks, camera (in day), gameplay fluid, good bttery, good accsories provided (buy from flipkart and u will get xperia s headphones inside the box which costs around 1200) cons: no frnt cam, 0.3 inch small screen than s adv and 0.1 small than 620, camera night time avg, usb on the go only in this phone, floating touch(after 4.0 update it works on entire ui), bravia engine stunning video playback 720p with quality , nfc only in this phn with tags. lumia 620: pros: good camera both frnt and rear, smooth processor, latest wp8, good bttery , good built quality. cons: wp8 low apps and 3rd party apps dnt wrk , mostly paid apps. slightly thick and heavy , looks are avg s adv: pros- has very good features supr amoled disp crisp than wp8 16 gb mem. cons: GB outdated phone no official jb update, bad cam and bttery, call drop issues ntwrk problem, hangs quite often. so, if u want perfect phone with all the good things go for lumia but not considering apps. and if u dont want frnt cam but android go for sola next good option than s adv .

  • go for lumia 620 .. if u want a smoother ui and crisp screen colors :)

  • Am planning to buy a new phone...had htc explorer earlier....thinking between xperia sola,galaxy advance and lumia 620...which one is better...not an app maniac...plz reply with advantages and disadvantages of each..are there any real deal breaker flaws in wp8?(like no file manager , xbox muxic problem )...main concerns are display quality,speaker performanece and battery life and camera...looking forward for ur replies

  • In the Wikipedia page of Xperia Sola it says " The ICS update removed the ability to record video with stereo sound. " Is it true?? Does anyone updated to ICS and faced this?

  • my phone suddenly turned off by itself.i tried with master reset,hardware reset(POWER + volume(+)) setting reset. now i'm not happy with my SONY XPERIA SOLA MT27i phone.....

  • simply flash the gb by using flash tool if the speaker problem solve then update to ics using SUS

  • that problem is because of the decoder which Max player is using, try to buy the mx player or download cracked version, that will automatically chose the suitable decoder needed to play the desire movie,,,

  • I have xperia Sola MT27i, i have problem with taking pictures. There is 3 options. When i set the phone for the third option.. "just by pressing camera button" .. i hear sound when pressing the button to take picture,but it doesnt take picture. First 2 options work fine.. Maybe i did' nt set sth good, or .. ? If somene had similar problem., please what should i do .. thanks ?

  • I have "MT27i XPERIA SOLA". And here s' the problem. When i want to take pictures there is 3 options to set the phone for taking pictures. First is: Screen button, 2. Touch recording. and 3. Just by pressing button of camera.. What worries me is that, when I set the phone for third option, it seems like button doesen't work.. there is a sound when taking a picture, but no picture. Thinkig maybe i did n t set up sth wright, So, if somoene had this problem.. what should i do, please ..

  • Sola's RAM is more than adequate. It is fast, even high graphic games run without any hiccups. The phone plays 720p videos flawlessly but for 1080p you should have MXplayer an should convert the video while copying to the phone. Even 1080p videos run without problem.

  • I guess you can. I had Most Wanted but stored it entirely in internal storage cause I always had space in it. Try it out. Guys is it possible to run games(high-end) which are transferred to mry card?

  • I'm using Xperia pro. My device has 512 MB (335 MB user available) RAM. Even some 720p movies run pretty slow in my device (using MX PLAYER). Yesterday I was watching an animation film (resolution of 1280*696 frame rate: may be 23) it stucks time after time (sound goes fast movie run slow). it happened with most of 720p movies. So I'm afraid to buy Sola as it has same amount of RAM. What should I do?? please help me.

  • is there an official ics update for sola in any region??

  • Yes there's nfc. No secondary cam

  • yes it does... and it does it very smoothly... i can even make it to play 1080... you just need to get MX Player and Arm v7 codex and it will play it like a boss

  • Mismatched dude. The 2 phones are not in the same price range. Xperia V and galaxy s advance are nearly of the same price,so let's get them head to head? s advance would look like rubbish compare to Xperia V.

  • Is there is NFC iand Secondary camera in Xperia Sola?

  • it does nt play 720p

  • Buy s advance insted of this outdated os phone.

  • xperia sola is of my view. sola 1Ghz dual core,DLNA & NFC supported, downloading speed 14.4Mbps, 3.7 inch display. but for xperia go 1Ghz single core processor, no DLNA & NFC,downloading speed 7.1Mbps, 3.5 inch display. so choose xperia sola.

  • Hi, I own a Sola which I tried to root my device using oneclickroot application downloaded from www.oneclickroot.com. But failed to root the device due to unknown reasons. After that, my phones speaker got corrupted. Then I tried to flash and updated with ICS but speaker never rectified. I understand that this definitely not a hardware issue but donno how to fix it? Someone please advise how to fix this speaker sound quality issue.... Thanks in advance... Prem

  • You can go to mobile shops or malls to have your SIM card cut for you. it will cost you a very minimal amount.

  • Wat f I don't have a micro sim ?? Where can I buy it ?

  • I bought Xperia sola now I m facing a problem ie. when I plug the charger phone hangs,why???!? but phone changes properly. ant1 reply me please.......

  • Have you even tried using sola with ICS?or you're just guessing or maybe just trolling around ? Well, let me tell you, I have this phone running with ICS and it's doing just fine. Updating to ICS made my phone looks even more lovelier cause the UI and the icons changed,of course for the better. I love this phone!it's the best for its price range. Don't believe those trolls.

  • sometimes, msg tone and notification tone won't play.. this is a usual bug in ics with sola.. it may happen sometime, not sure... but restarting UR phone for every 3 'll refresh d phone and internal components..

  • go for xperia go. sony sola new ics has some bugs, and sony still not provided any solution for this (no new fw update).. Shame on you sony...

  • use the word best if your comparing 3 items. use better when your just comparing 2 things.

  • just set your focus setting to infinity mode for faster camera capturing to fix the problem

  • Which one is best sony sola or go pls tell me i want to buy this week

  • for me. sola was the best phone i ever had it for gaming. so simple but yet so good. last year i bought a white one, but it got destroyed due of it fell down on the water. and now i but a new one still sola, instead of xperia p or s. even the ram is just 512 mb. but i like the size. still pocket fit. unlike the Z or S.

  • Hai frnd... You told that, the battery needs "restart" for every 3 days. I can't understand this, could you please explain about this frnd...!..?.

  • desire x its great phone my bro got it its great phone :)

  • As you have experience for about last 6 month then please tell me how to close the recent application as i am being new one to it i dont know how to do that one

  • I agree. You are paying around 40% of the price of a high end phone and getting 80% or even more of the features you get on such phones. So why spending so much money on cellphones that have such a short "wow" effect. To be honest until now I did not find any phone that offers all the features I want to pay such high prices (the big exception was the Sony Xperia SX SO-05D - what a beautiful device - Still a mistery to me why sony did not offer it globally). Well for now I am happy with my xperia sola (only problem the battery) and I can really call it a cellphone. The phablets look simply ridiculous.

  • S Advance is better choice.. its upgradable to Jelly Bean. Better RAM and beautiful display.

  • LG Optimus L9 or HTC Desire X or xpeira sola or go. plzzz advise

  • thanks fr saying how is net speed, how is headphone quality,how is movie clarity.pls say

  • Hi friendz Xperia sola better than same smartphones U.j.go.miro.p.tipo. Can be bit for sola my experience past 6months he camera,1ghz dualcore proccer 3d sound,Ios,floaton touch vv.good

  • Hi u can buy Xperia sola camera good internet good touch good memory inbuilt 8gb flat design dual core processor battery for you use low light xellant backup (this my opinion)

  • choose sony brand because have dual-core that can surf internet perfectly / n more faster.. 'sola' dont have secondary camera, 'u' dont have memory card... i think choose 'sola'.. :)

  • sony xperia u or sony xperia sola or samsung galaxy s duos??? plzz suggest me...

  • I have been using this phone since 1 year and i have gone to the Sony repair shop 3 times already and i m frustrated., 1)Charging port problem 2)Battery problem 3)service providers problems -FU*****g AS****** and they returned my phone after 3 months., NOW its proper!! and i m now expecting the NEXT UPCOMING problem!!!

  • ya xperia sola is the best i am also a user and also have upgraded it to android 4.0

  • how to root it??

  • For all those considering to buy sola or not, let me give u a sincere review... It's far better than galaxy s duos, and xperia j. It's the best you can get for this price range. Plays hd videos perfectly with my player without any lag, unlike duos. The phone itself doesn't lag, unlike duos. Perfect for high hd end games, no lag. Don't upgrade and you get a perfect phone. Battery life is the only problem.... Which is still decent........

  • If I root the device and install jelly bean on it, do you think it will run smoother?

  • best smartphone i have ever used. Guys, I recommend to this mobile to any one. Don't waste your money to buy high end range mobile... ergonomic & economic- SONY XPERIA SOLA..

  • Galaxy S Advance or Xperia Sola? Why?

  • in this phone wifi is working r nt

  • how is net speed, how is movie clarity.

  • You're exaggerating! May I just remind you that this is a mid range phone,so don't expect it to operate just like high end phones with the best GPU,chipset,battery etc but comes with a price. I'm a sola user and i can honestly say that it's the best phone for its price range!

  • me 3 hahah

  • its showing up to date.with pc companion and update service.current v 2.3.7

  • me 2

  • what is ur time period/

  • I don't know what's wrong with these people.. This is a phone not a super computer. every time when a new android os pops out they get mad with their phones. u get a smart phone for ur basic entertainment needs and this phone does it best in this price range. u can always root ur phone and correct many problems by customization. if they don't get an update,they complain..if they get an update,again they complain about it and yet they don't even use much of the updated features...see.. now people who have J.B in phones are worrying about key lime pie..yet u can always cover ur basic needs in GB. this is an excellent phone..

  • Hi Guys, I am confused to buy Xperia sola or xperia J. ofcource both price are same, i am having a great confusion to buy which phone among these two. Please advive me in this.

  • Worst smartphone i have ever used. List of issue: -> First of all very slow mobile(Even opening phone contact takes 1-2 min). -> Worst WIFI coverage. -> Very frequent automatic restart. -> Poor sound quality -> Poor battery back-up Guys, I never recommend to this mobile to any one. Now i'm thinking to change this waste mobile. Don't waste your money to my this junk mobile.

Honestly almost SONY phone's are working good Until they are not got any Prob, once thay got Prob, they gone....so avoid go with SONY Xperia....

  • best smartphone in its class......

  • It does mp4 Videos which are pretty decent in 720p

  • I got the phone for about 150EURO and I am very pleased. Yes, it is no Experia Z or an iPhone but a great bang for the buck. It perform pretty decent under 2.3 but I decided to do the upgrade to ICS. But the 512 MB RAM is way too small for that. It lags and you are even afraid to open any app. So I decided to ROOT it and was then able to delete all the crapware, adjust the autostart. This really helped and the performance is now pretty good. But the average user who does not gain root access should stay away from ICS. The default camera is ok, but when I shoot several pictures in a row I get a "memory error". So I am using "Camera ZOOM Fx". Works perfect now. Quality of the pictures is ok for snapshots, better at daylight than in the dark. Gaming is ok, "Real Racing" runs ok, a few laggs here and there, but no big deal. Battery lasts for about a day with regular use of Internet, Gtalk, email, Facebook and Spotify. If Sony had but 1GB RAM and a front camera, this would have been the perfect phone. Now it's just 4/5, for me at least.

  • no front camera u have to twist constantly to chat

  • May i plz know how to calibrate battery. Is it necessary?

  • ICS is laggy than stock GB, although no NFC enable until ICS upgrade. . .

  • Android 4.1 has project butter for smooth xperience and it need more ram.Xperia sola has mali 400 gpu which which uses more ram than other gpu like andreno 200.hence bcause of heavy use of ram by gpu sola cant upgraded to jelly bean

  • A good phone... Had the potential of Jelly Bean, but 512MB of RAM with a hi-res screen made the phone struggling on ICS... Love the floating touch technology anyway...

  • I hav been usin dis phone for 4 months now n I m pretty happy wid it's functioning after al wt u xpect 4m Sony ven u r payinsuch a low amount.I say worth my money

  • well it is a good phone .. but am not sure about the battery !

  • Thank you frnd.... I am going to buy this mobile, i asked so, because some frnd are giving different kinds of comments... This is my first smart phone frnd..

  • Definitely Xperia P but it costs more than Sola. Sola and J are in the price range. Of those 2 Sola is better since J lags as I have heard. I have the Sola it works fine. Only problem is the battery where in moderate you can get a day only

  • Which is the best option? SONY XPERIA P SONY XPERIA J SONY XPERIA SOLA Note: I am not interested in Gaming Options I need: Good Browsing Good Music Good Camera Good Battery

  • well this is a amazing phone.it has a bunch of cool features like floating touch ,nfc etc..games run smoothly without any issue.worth buying.

  • Hi Frens, I just came to know through my frens that Xperia J jhas already received Jelly bean update. Where the Specification of Xperia J is far poor that Xperia Sola. Can any1 over here explain why sony is not gonna roll out Jelly Bean for Xperis Sola.

  • somebody plz reply....can i have video chat with xperia sola.....

  • how is ics working on it?? is it running smoothly. pls answer.

  • can we have video chat using xperia sola? or is there any front camera option for only video chat?

  • If you can go to the nearest Sony service center and have it updated there but I think it would cost you some penny. Although a lot of the feedback I've read on the net about ics upgrade are unfavorable and my experience is no exception in my case little issues like hanging sometimes especially when I use tethering/portable hotspot but it's up to you. You can also try sending email to Sony mobile website. Cause I don't think having bought the phone in Saudi has something to do w/ it. Sorry for the late reply.

  • can we have video chat using xperia sola? or is there any front camera option for only video chat?

  • And i have also installed pc compnsn from the phone and also downloaded it from the internet and installed but still it shows the same.....!!!!!

  • I know that but even if i connect it to the computer it shows as the phobe is up to date thats d reason i am worried .....!!!!

  • yes!

  • does it supports USB On-The-Go....??? just like xperia go, u, p etc does..??

  • My bad. Internal memory only has 5 gb but only 4 of which is user available. In any case it still is enough to store files in plus the fact it's expandable up to 32 gb w/ sd card.

  • A friend of mine told me this phone easily get scratched. Pls how true is this? I mean when compared with xperia u. Thanks in advance.

  • In most if not in all cases the phone memory houses pre-installed apps out of the box and is not really meant to accommodate huge amount of downloads which the internal memory makes up for. Sola's total internal memory is 8 gb but only 5 of w/c is user available also because of some apps pre-installed out of the factory.

  • I'm not sure if you know that the update to ICS is not over the phone but through PC Companion which requires you to connect to a computer. If so you need to download PC Companion from Sony mobile website onto your computer and install it. Then just follow as instructed.

  • Can someone help me to choose what is better.. Xperia E / Xperia J / Xperia SOLA / Xperia Miro I need it fast

  • I have a sola brought 1 yr back from saudi and now i am back in india but still it has no update on it and i am still has android 2.3 any suggestion or help.....!!!! Please :)

  • So far for several days of using it, it has delivered the goods I've just downloaded & played dead trigger and has been smooth. HD videos also looked great. Music playback experience has been enjoyable too and I like how you can play tracks with cool visualizations and edit or download song info. I just don't know what phone you're using now to establish a comparison. But I do like how sola works so far.

  • Friend, plz tell me that, Is sola a good phone..?. I am not asking about the specifications, plz tell me about your own personal experiance, those who are using this.. Plz frnds..

  • hello what is the different between internal memory and phone memory? why the internal memory(4gb) is less than the amount (5 gb)company described? thanks

  • It's just unfortunate though this phone isn't getting JB update. It would've been nice to see the improvements but Sony has officially announced the line up of xperia phones getting a taste of JB and xperia u, sola & arc s are out of the whole thing. Sony says it's best these phones don't get the upgrade because their heart values product quality. They're taking into acct the limited RAM of these phones in relation to their relatively higher GPU which the upgrade would definitely have an adverse impact on once it's rolled out. In essence Sony knows what's best for its phones and clients. I will just have to be content with how my sola is right now.

  • It amazing full entertainment package.it's 3g speed floating touch is too much amazing.I like this phone very much.

  • Xperia sola Good 3g speed amazing good touch. Good camera Good battery backup for low light u can use Inbuilt 8gb The input sound amazing This is my xperince

  • Hi all , Well regarding Sola-Never Upgrade to ICS which is the biggest sin for Sola it'll crash ur phone in-time! As I updated to ICS and used it for like 5months but screwed me big time by hanging on for awhile and guess wat? finally it crashed though the UI was gud but screws u big time cant hear ppl on call sometimes and Internal memory is good enough that i havent used MC till now I have about 300 songs and like 70-80 pix and 4-5 HD Videos which are cool.. am not a gamer so can't comment towards gaming!Music is too cool wen u use ur headphones, which I never take-off ;)on the whole a good phone on a recent cost range well u can also try samsung grand which I heard is also gud and has better specs..
