Sony Xperia tipo dual - User Reviews

  • Try reseting the phone. It may be just because the Android is too old - after all it's is a phone from 2012 and technology evolves really fast....

  • Same as mine

  • i use this phone for about three years it never have a problem.it's battery backup is very good.but from 6 months it hangs very Much if I want open Any app the screen is white .And shows the app is not responding.and I cant transfer the apps to external card so the internal memory is full.plz suggest me solution...

  • i use this phone for about three years it never have a problem...but now it refuse to connect!!! it connect only on messanger!! what can i do????what's the problem!!!!!

  • how to order or buy, Sony Experia - docomo SO-02?????????????????????????............. & how much is the price???................

  • Using it from 3 years.Best of its kind.

  • I had this phone over almost 4 years. It doesnt have any problem its great phone i ever had But now, in this era that phone is useless, coz it has low spec..

  • I've had this phone for a few months now and I have to say it is the worst phone I have owned in the 40 phones I've had, it has been a nightmare, reception issues - software faults- firmware issues- poorly placed settings- connection issues- automatic restarts frequently- freezing issues, if you want to be able to use a phone do not buy this garbage, buy a brick instead as it has far greater capabilities

  • Is smartphone or not

  • #class!c smartphone EVER ... no challenge,overall very good phone, my allt!me favorite phone .bt js hoping that Sony have to work on the advanced version of this one I mean to that all about the overall specification as RAM,ROM,CAMERA MEGAPIXEL,SECONDARY CAMERA,BATTERY,ANDROID VERSION,OTG SUPPORTING,PROCESSOR etc. please think over it...

  • I m using this phone since dusshehra 2012....its a good n durable phone...with good video quality...fallen many times ...but works always cool..shown in amazing spiderman 2.

  • This phone is not good. Touch is not good...worst....fed time when try to type whatsapp or message

  • Sony Xperia Tipo is the worst phone ever. My Wi-fi connection is full then i open Snapchat,You Tube,Play Store or Facebook and says ''Please, check your internet connection and try again later.'' The worst phone ever!

  • my phone is not working good?? where is service centr near kolkata

  • its just becoz of ur charger.try the original charger for better performance.

  • Last 3 years m using same model no ST21i2 of Sony Xperia ..sTILL good Condition...

  • It was best mobile...... And last month i got a problem it show in valid simcard.... this was i got problem ......

  • 2 years of use, sometimes it overheats when I use when charging. Touch screen is quite a pain, you cant type a message with ease..keeps returning to camera on its own..would never buy it again!

  • Best phone....even after use of around 3 years....no issue...best value for money.

  • I used this phone after 3 years ago. no problem. it's best phone.

  • after 3 years too,I reached the conclusion that I need microSD card.more space is needed to reduce slow speed of usuall aplications and programs.In rest is all good,viable device.

  • awesome buy sony or buy sony or go for sony ok

  • good 1, but not enough RAM. So turms slower after 7-8 months.

  • Use power button (used to switch off the phone) with lower volume button (used to low the volume) to take screenshot

  • There is no option for taking screenshot. Moreover there is no call recorder. We have to install other applications for recording purpose. Other Performances are good.

  • Best phone ever :)

  • worst phone..it hangs like hell, not able make a emergency call, which is the ultimate purpose of a mobile shittttttttttttttt

  • It a phone worth less no updates and it cannot update software

  • I have liked this phone snd it has met all my needs. I am not a massive user for downloads and just use, facebook, google search and the occaisonal email download. bought it outright and has not given an ounc of problem. photos have been good quality.

  • Price -specifications it is ok. BUT HELL - android problem battery problem, hanging calls during talk problem, not calling problem.. i hate it so much lately. But I guess more of the problems comes from OS..and installed apps. Because there wasn't so much problems at the begining.

  • Don't worry about touch problem download the TOUCHFWTOOLS AND calibarate your touch will improve 99.9% be happy

  • its a mobile but not is a mobile \

  • Hi, I wanna buy this phone as a secondary pphone does dual sim work together??

  • I own the phone for over a year now. Pros: ----- 1. Price. It's relatively cheap. 2. Good design. I don't like big phones. Cons: ----- 1. When I first bought the phone, I encountered the common problem of the disorientation of the display. That is, when I tap somewhere on the screen, another place other than the place where I tapped reacts. I went back to the shop I bought the phone from to get it fixed. 2. The performance isn't that great. I didn't expect it to be a powerful device according to the spec.s announced, though. Example: I tap to open the call log, I wait for about 3-6 seconds to open. Another Example: The phone takes forever to boot. Considering the previous examples, you should have a good idea of the overall performance of the phone. (Think about when I open WhatsApp or any other application.) note: ----- Please note that I have intentionally bought the phone although I knew about its problems beforehand. That's because I only use the phone mainly for 2 purposes: 1. Just making the phone calls (It's a phone after all) 2. Syncing contacts. (Just in case I lose my phone or anything) Since I have galaxy note 10.1; I don't really need an expensive powerful phone.

  • both of them are terrible in comparison to today's offerings , apart from Samsung's useless entry level devices , Most Offerings from different companies offer A Dual Core processor which doesn't hang , a much better GPU , 512 Mb of Ram , A Fairly Recent Android Version 4.1.2 or Mostly 4.2.2 Jelly Bean with few managing to get 4.3 Jelly Bean or 4.4.2 KitKat

  • this is an old device and shouldn't be bought in these times where more powerful devices exist i own one from more than 16 months ago and is still functional

  • Many touch problem!!!! space is so small and very hang!!!

  • Install TOUCHFWTOOLS apk those who face touch issue with sony xperial tipo mobiles or other models of Sony

  • I bought this model as soon as it released in the market.Got it for 10,500/- in 2012. Worst phone i ever had.Too many problems with touch,Cam quality is not as good as they promised,switching off on its own. Faced many troubles with it and now resale value is so low.nobody is willing to pay more than 1500/- Warranty is useless as they couldnt repair it and instead they are asking me to pay 3000rs for replacement parts. i would never buy any sony smartphone.

  • "there are many problems in touch" What should i do? & when i install any application or games it will show some error..!! it just a f**king phone..! We should buycot the company

  • There are many problems in Touch What should I do

  • file missing in your android os

  • Its always irritating me..... it turn off it self & struk evry time

  • Having trouble in touch screen. From last evening touch is not responding at all,not able to pick any call or perform any operation.

  • I have had this phone for over a year. When I first got it, the touchscreen did not work properly. I found a tool online to fix this (though I can't remember what it was) and it has been fine ever since. Recently the phone has started to hang, and the only way, it seems, to restart it is to take the cover off, remove the battery, then put it all back together. This is very tedious, especially as it is happening more and more. My main problem with this phone, though, is that it constantly loses the WiFi signal, and I am always having to reconnect. Anyone else have this problem? (I am using the phone to write this, and I find that I am submitting before I've finished. Finished now.)

  • The worst mobile ever, i hate it ,bad bad bad touch ,very small

  • if i install any application or games it show some error

  • I bought xperia tipo 1year ago 1) Its touch is 70% good 2) Battery awsom!! 3 days without charging 3)imporant, my phone was dead due to some technical problem but but SONY PC COMPANION repaire it and upadted it within 30 min 4) Sony provided good smartphone in 8 k(ind) 5) My experince is best on xperia tipo cheers sony

  • is anybody have idea to make single partition of 2.5GB rather using in bloody phone memory & internal storage way ???? such a f**king type of phone this one is. im looking for new phone have lot of memory for apps if no solution .

  • where is the scrren shot button?

  • my experience with this phone is horrible, here are my comments: 1. very poor response to touch experience 2. it hangs frequently, you have to remove the battery and place it again. 3. texting experience is worst, the phone has its own mind not responding to your finger when you touch several letters on its keypad...especially when your fingers fast, it hangs, you have to always restart the phone and it restarts in such a slow period of time. 4. it sometimes just turns off by itself.

  • Absolutely right . And my screen touch facillity was also so horrible for me... I cant play touch games for this Bokowas touch screen.

  • wow.....the best phone in my life.i am very happy about my phone.thanks sony.

  • I would not advise anybody to by this phone and as I am very disappointed with their client support I will not buy Xperia never ever in my Life. When people call me they hear the eco of their voice. I complaint about the phone three times to the Assistance (Portugal) since it was in the 30 day period. They always sent it back to me "repaired"... always with the same problem. There were also problems with software it clicks and calls people without me touching the phone. People call me and it does not ring.

  • you can fix it by following theese instructions and downloadinh this file, I had the same problem

  • It's very good Mobile phone, I have been using this phone since November2012, sometimes hang but overall very good phone in this price,no problem with the touchscreen,very smooth.

  • I bought this Phone last year the same day , im review this opinion as post to all. This phone is not upto mark.Cant effectively use this phone , that has its features delivered. Pros : Compact Cons : 1. Very Poor Performance 2. Internet connectivity slow. 3. Hangs. 4. Fail with Touchscreen ( only solution is replacing the touch that cost approx 2 - 3k ). 5. Customer service fails to replace , even under warranty period. 6. Faced the problem replacing the touch more than Two times. Actually Im love to Sony Products , But after getting this Sony Tippo and its poor performance im totally disappointed using the Sony Products both mobile and other.

  • Can anyone send me the link for how to update?

  • it can operate both sim. both can use at the same time.

  • Can anyone tell me that both sims in Xperia Tipo Dual can be operative(ON) together? what is to mean by "no dual stand-by" in this set? If anybody know the answer please let me know thanks.

  • Its worst smart phone i ever used ...:(

  • Its jb or else

  • It is satisfactory but not very good

  • Didn't expected such poor performance phone from sony. Poor battery which does not last for 24 hours. Poor call quality. Data traffic too slow

  • Even mine has the same problem. I have a solution but it is roundabout. Switch from vibrate to normal switch of the phone and switch it on. The other option is to ask some nearby friend to call you after you switch to normal mode. Hope sony people correct this bug Ravi

  • my mobile is hanging why did like that is happening

  • which slot is more suitable for 3g net..please reply...sim 1....qr sim 2

  • Yeah.. Thr new build version 11.0.A.6.8..

  • Nice but have some network issue.

  • When I switch from Vibrate mode to Normal Mode again my phone goes to Vibrate mode when I make calls. How to shoot out this trouble. Can any one help please

  • TouchFWTools_1.0.apk Use this applicatio. It will solve your problem. I was also having this prob and get solved by this apk

  • Well I'm using xperia tipo dual since about 2 months and tell you what, it's just like minimized copy of xperia Z, means apps launchs like wow and not bad perfomance, although the small size and screen resolution, for the record when i used it for the first time it, sometimes it misbehave,like the screen or some apps gets stuck and does not respond,but thats fine.all ya gotta do is go to the update center, update the system, and no headacke for ever

  • Last one year using tipo dual but never solve touch problems. Pl. Reply touch solution Repair 4 time Sony care

  • well!its a very good phone with this range of price.very beautiful and good performance.my camera is not bad.it is normally but with an app like camera zoom fx or camera 360 it can be even better.it hasnt any rivals with this price.only problem is for sims.network sometimes falls.

  • water dead, how to reactivate?mobile is not short circiut yet.

  • Yeah Android have many problems. Agreed!! But SONY chooses Android 4.0 for Tipo Dual mobile. If mobile is not as compatible(smooth operating) with that OS than SONY should have to select lower version of Android OS which perform well. So here SONY is driving his vehicle in wrong way not ANDROID. And thats why this accident occur for this mobile. ;)

  • Tipo dual is manufactured to use dual sim!? but the hell if we on the data traffic in one sim the other goes to either emergency or no service mode mojority of the times. Initially the other sim icon may show the signal bar but we can not get connected to the incoming call...untill we off the data traffic. If its so then how come this can be called a dual sim. But i have checked with basic android Samsung sets there is an option to receive the call with other sim, the default sim automatically changes and call connects...its really great. Recently, after noticing this bad feature i apprached to sony service centre they told after noting my complaint we will replace the board; as initial boards have the same problem. After 6-7 days i collected the set with the hope that i wont mis any call to the other sim while the data is on with the other sim. However no such expectations came true same problem reapeated....... So why did they made this model in dual?????? This is so bad

  • Install Sony PC Companion, connect your phone and follow the instructions on the screen to update to the latest firmware.

  • I have also installed BBM and it runs like butter. Many people keep complaining that the phone hangs and bla bla but believe me if you operate it correctly and install only those application which are required will give you decent performance of the phone. All the android phones normally eat battery very fast but Tipo dual has solid battery backup it is amazing when I forgot to take charger with me it gave me long battery backup hardly it needs to be charged once in 2 days with moderate usage. Such a nice phone in this cheap price tag one of the best phone in its class. Hats off to Sony really.

  • Same hare

  • Could you please tell me how to update to latest firmware?please

  • All the comments people made about Sony Tipo Dual is just bcoz either they dont know how to operate or they dont know how to and what to install in such superb phone. I am using this Sony Xperia Tipo Dual since last 5 months and did not face any problem even the game "temple run" runs smoothly. People may need to keep atleast 100 MB RAM free, what they must be doing is they open several application and dont bother about the ram the more applications running background the more they eat the ram and hence the phone lags or hangs for sometime

  • Note that this mobile does not support dual standby so how could you expect both sims work at same time you go with mobiles which support dual standby in the case of samsung

  • i m using sony tipo dual .. aftr i updated my youtube it is nt working widout wifi ..cn i get sme suggestions plzz..

  • its a cool gadget. but i think there is inconsistency between the OS version and the physical size of the phone.Raally they physical size need to be large

  • for calibrate your touch screen

  • you need to reset your phone At first backup your contacts,messages,logs etc..with any backup apps(search on google play store) now Go to settings > backup & reset > Factory data reset> reset phone Install that app again>restore your contacts and data

  • Can we update to jb

  • i have problem in loudspeaker of mobile. it does not ring and play any sound even in normal mode. i tried to solve it but could not. any suggestion.....please

  • First Issue: Sony experia tipo dual have a problem of network when we activate data packet of first sim say(airtel) automatically second sim network goes to no service there is no network in second sim till when data packet activated of first sim . Second Issue: I am using sony tipo dual from last 8 months but suddenlt my phone restarted continously what to do post a good answer waiting for u r rply

  • Touch problem can be solved easily bby downloading the application from Google

  • its a good phone and i have been using it for about 8 month now but i faced a problem with downloading BBM new android version,so can its android be updated??

  • No it's a good phone(for that price) I'm using it for more than 1 year At first i had some problems but later update it to the latest firmware and those problem were solved I'm happy with this phone,better than samsung cheap plastics.. for regular users it's a decent phone you can't expect much from a budget phone

  • please make a comfortable Experience of touch...touch sensor is very very very poor...i am facing many problems within one month from the purchased... ....i was cheated by xperia tipo dual

  • touch experience is very very very poor

  • Sony Xperia tipo dual wonder full handset& marbluse

  • i want nobody buy this mobile i have a problem this mobile touch senser not work good and camera also bad

  • You are wrong Sony's build quality is great(better than samsung and others cheap quality) But the problem is android. Nowadays for android minimum dual core processor and 1gb ram is needed Otherwise ur phone will lag anytime check out xperia m/m dual: >>http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_m-re­views-5497.php best budget phone so far *MAKE.BELIEVE*

  • i have problems with this phone. the phone keeps on lagging and its a problem for me when theres an emergency. the performance is also not good as well, not recommended to buy this phone. gonna change my phone

I was told that the mother board is spoilt. it has to be replaced and it would cost Rs. 6500/=. I refused saying that why to spend Rs. 6500/= for a mobile which is costing Rs 9500/=. I just kept my mobile off for overnight and tried charging it was able to do. then why the hell that unqualified person sitting there misguided me ? SONY : r u hearing me? Please improve ur services. and throw out such goons from ur service centre.

  • I am using this phone since last 4 months. I am facing some audio problems. When I talk to other person he hears an obstruction of my voice and sometimes gets echos and vice-versa. Is there anybody who can give me suggestions in this regard?

Now press home. 2) Now install any external music player applicaion like(n7player, player pro etc.) or if you already have it than, 3)Start any song in that and make sure you can see it in dropdown screen bartouch top of screen and slide it down) while pause the song. 4) Now press home and symbol and hold than open service menu -> service test -> earphone. 5) Now from drop down bar play song. hear earphone sound qualitywith on earhone test. Is it different or same??

  • Using this Handset since last 9 months. Most worst earphone sound quality I have ever hear. Worst battery life, Mobile hangs while attending calls. Very cheap quality at this price. This is a special request not to buy this model and also not of any product as in all SONY products i have got many problems. Sony is nothing than just a brand name. SONY is a big cheater as they are not responding at any of their service centers. So beware of SONY and stay away from this Brand... ZERO STAR...

I dropped my cell phone on the ground from the balcony of my room which is situated on the 2nd floor of my building But I was shocked to see dat it was all OK......working as smooth as before. :-o the cell was working awesome,until some white parallel lines started aappearing in the upper part of the LCD aftr 2mnths from the incident. The lines increased in no. ....(upto 24 lines) :-( So,i gave it to the nearest Sony authorised service centre....nd they replaced the LCD(worth Rs.1789/-) for free.......excellent service...really... nw my trust on Sony has increased more. With Regards, A Bravia LED,Cybershot DSLR nd XPERIA smartphone user..:-)

  • Dual sim stand by means, you cannot change sim 1&2 for out goings like call,sms,... thanks , Thiyagu

  • You can recieve messages for both sims but you need to set which sim will be active for sending messages and call. There is a button at the lower right side to set which sim is active to make a call or send a message.

  • this mobile is best,,,because i have samsung galaxy s3,,,this mobile touch is not so good then Sony Xperia tipo dual

  • Xpera E Dual or Xperia Tipo Dual, which is better? Tipo Dual is "No Dual Stand By" whereas E Dual is "Dual Stand By". What is the meaning of "No Dual Stand By"? If ny1 knows kindly explain as soon as. Thanx.

  • Sony xperia screen quality is good, but not worthy compare to cost and it is every time hanging , while we are using any APP in this, it is some times would be stopped the application also. and one morething NOT supported for huge size games and everytime need to clear the RAM memery.

  • U can go head and buy the mobile der is no issues with that.

  • Great phone, great reception. Love having two sim cards. Battery is efficient in most cases. Wifi drains it pretty quickly but that's typical with most phones. Without wifi and minimal ota data, I can go 2-3 days without charging. Going prepaid tmobile, I have two lines for what 1 line at vz or att would cost post paid.

  • A very nice phone. Very portable!

  • Tippo dual sim mobile no stand by in sim 1 and sim 2.wt meaning for no stand by.plz any bdy replay me plz

  • i really like itnyce phone

  • xperia tipo very nice mobile phone

  • ***these are the good in tipo duel*** 1- run HD games. 2- run 3D games. 3- has (android 4.0.4 ) whereas many android devices have (android 2.3.6 ) without any upgrade. 4- screen 320*480. whereas many android devices have 320*240 5- good sound volume. 6- very long life battery. 7- cheap ,not expensive. 8- two sims in one time ,and the two are active together. 9- good processor (800 MHZ) ,faster than htc wildfire s(600 MHZ) and faster than Samsung devices with (832 MHZ) like mini and young. 10- normal ram (412 MB) but you need auto task killer. 11- maybe get upgrade to (android 4.2) after about 6-7 years. Joke! ***and these are the bad in tipo duel*** 1- you need task killer or the device will hangs. 2- java emulator never work. 3- bad radio application. 4- no flash light. 5- no front cam. 6- slow internet. 7- no voice recorder in my device. 8- no compass. 9- you have to turn off your device to change sd card or any sim card. 10- the update 11.0.a.6.5 has some mistakes. 11- problems with (Gprs) ,maybe the update solve the problem. 12- receive files manually by Bluetooth not automatic (you have to agree to receive even with paired devices) 13- some apps and games (like talking tom) need to active 2D GPU RENDERING in the settings in developer option or it will stop by it self or not work perfect. 14- some apps and games do not open and we see this word (unfortunately,the app has stopped) .i say (why)? 15- some common vpn apps not work (they don't change proxy) like hot spot shield vpn and hide man vpn . You can use PSIPHONE 3 and DROID VPN and FEARLESS MOBILITY. the problem maybe because of slow internet. 16- widget doesn't show how many running apps like some other android devices. 17- %%%important%%% you have to make the language of the device ( English ) or alot of apps and games won't work good and will stop suddenly. 18- What is the most bad thing?. It is to buy android phone then you get angry because you discover that google prevents your country to use play store application . Realy I hate google and nokia store. Don't sell your phones in my country if you don't want to give us your services.

  • Buying this phone is that to put money in dustbin the bad screen response in this phone

  • I have been using this phone for the week an I have to say it is absolutely brilliant. After using a Samsung music duo's and a galaxy s duo's I think this is the better one. Sure it's not got hardware like the galaxy s duo's but the Sony handles everyday tasks better as well as playing games seems smoother. I'm playing real racing 3 an csr racing on this Sony where as on the galaxy s duos they were unbearable.

  • It lag. The game cannot run smoothly. I play subway surf,,the respon a bit late.,

  • I have been using tipo for about 8mnths. Its camera and battery backup disappoints me. It hangs during multitaskng,internet s slow compared to other mid range phones..advantages are-good touch screen,good music system. Its good for normal android users.

  • bad touch responses

  • I need to buy this phone and asking if it's good for playing games such like candy crush is it good with games? Or it hanging up?

  • This phone doesn't play the MP4 format....

  • Hello Friends, I have been using Sony Xperia(Tipo) since Feb-2013 but its camera and battery life has always been disappointing for me. Scratch resistant screen is nice and touch is also fine. Although the phone responds great to all app downloading, but phone hangs in multi tasking. The phone's design mostly suits ladies and is a best buy for normal android use, but for the users with faster and multi-tasking needs this is not an ideal choice.

  • I m using mobile since last 8 month. this really very bad handset. maintenance too much costly, accessories costly as compare to other standard same mobile as well as not easily available in market. we can't use local accessories in this mobile. I suggest if any body wants purchase mobile don't think about this handset.

  • i hav purchased this cell last month, it don't ask me to frm which sim call to that no. it automically choose sim, all other thing are good.

  • Am using this mobile from past 1 year. With in one year this smartphone went to service center for more than thrice. Do not buy this Sony Xperia Tipo as it will be hanging every time not even to play a game like subnet surfers,Temple run etc, Automatically restarts while speaking.

  • How come? It all work well. May be a defect specific only to you.

  • I am using this phone for the last 2 months without any difficulty...Battery backup is good..I do agree that there is a echo when u use the headphone ...else rest all is good what I observed..I think its worth what you pay..

  • Simplicity is the key to brilliance! Tipo prooves it. I use this for extreme internet usage and for phone call. It works well. Will recommend to every one

  • Can you plz suggest me that should i buy this phone or not??

  • use any task killer and set it to automatic clean mode while you are playing games i was able to play many high end games like asphalt 7,most wanted,dead trigger,mc4 etc(it's not smooth but playble)

  • very bad, dual sim is not working. sim 2 is not showing atleast the signal also

  • Am using Sony Tipo Dual for almost 9 months..initially had touch screen problem and there is TouchFW utility which fixed the issue .. To increase the performance, install Auto task killer and set frequency for killing unused process which will free memory and phone will be lag free .... Sound Quality best in this range of phone .....

  • what is the lowest free RAM you noticed in tipo at any stage of operating it ??????????????????????????????? * * * well, myself got 32MB free RAM while playing subway surf...& i'll be never surprised if my handset got strucked due to 0 MB free RAM............................ worthless specification of any Branded device. i think now we should stop talking about TIPO, those who already had this device just keep regreting for your mistake & those who wants to buy android they have got lot of option in present time.

  • This phone can run all versions of (mx player) . And this software can play all video format even HD formats .This app is powerful like jet audio on computer.so you can play not only common formats and HD format but also every thing .

  • There is aproblem with playing (amr) audio format that you will hear echo but the other formats are good (like : mp3 ,wav,...) . And because 3gp movies use (amr) in its sound ,so you will hear echo in 3gp else . So echo will appear in (3gp,amr) only .And the update 11.0.a.6.5 didnot solve this problem . The old phones of tipo duel were make echo during the call but the newer phones now came without echo during the call , only echo with amr and 3gp .This what i know .

  • does it supports hd videos??????

  • Iam using this phn frm last 3mnths, I hv noticed dat this device has an echo prblm. While using headphones it wil increasing more.. How to fix dis prblm ? Pls helpme someone...:-(

  • If we use whatsapp or opera or viber or any thing else the other sim still active .And if the two sims were ( gsm ) so the two sims will active ; i.e. If u have two gsm sims and you use internet on one of them then some one call u on any sim of them ,after that your phone will ring and the other sim will stop untill the call end and of corse internet will stop (not cut,i mean hang) . If u buy tipo duel u will see that (no duel standby) is not aproblem .

  • It's actually one of the great phone that I've used in my life ,I've used IPHONE ,BLACKBERRY,LG, NOKIA before so I have a vast experience in navigating different software platforms . here's my personal review * the battery last for 24 hrs unlike other android product * I experienced some lags at first but it got resolved by updating the software and application one by one * the call quality it's actually good it's the same with blackberry 9220 * screen resolution well I can watch VEVO (HD)format movie using my Sony TIPO dual so I guess its good * it uses Android 4.0.4 ICE CREAM SANDWICH * I downloaded a free app that makes me experience the project butter where in all the icon just flows in the screen like a butter on a hot pan * HSDPA that's 3.5G decent connection! * OVERALL EXPERIENCE 8 - it's not perfect but it's good

  • When update Android 4.1 for Xperia Tipo?

  • When I bought this phone the service guy then calibrates my touch screen with a software(TouchFWTools) then my touch screen works just fine... anyways below are my observation about this phone... Battery: Every day my nephew and i watches videos(every night for 1 hour or more) and after that more than an hour of playing games, occationnal texting and calling with all that the phone lasted for more than 3 days... Games and videos: when i play temple Run sometimes it lags but it works fine/fast most of the time. I also played it with fruit ninja, xdrag, angry birds and it works great... It also works great on playing videos ... Texting: texting is difficult at first because it's screen is smaller and the keypad is querty... This works great with smaller fingers... but when you get used to it it will be fine... the looks: for me the looks of this phone is better than the others... from the back to the front... but its only my taste others might see it differently... Well those are just my observation about the phone and for me it's the best phone i ever had and i totally enjoyed it... Their are phones which have features like this one but i still prefer buying this phone(and now i have it)... Go Xperia

  • you have to always keep 100mb ram free to operate in full flow ... so go to apps in settings and stop unwanted apps... tell me if i am wrong... there is also a setting to avoid running more than 6 apps ... check the same and tipo will tip the best of the same.

  • You Can't man... You have to update otherwise it will irritate you. i had the same problem

  • its a gud n handy phone but touch senstivity is very low.other buttons are automatically getting active

  • annoying phone ever!!! i sold my LG phone and i was hoping that sony experia is better!! but WTF!!! this is just motnh for me!! message always hang up!1 if i was on emergency i cant contact asap!!! and now it was dead!!! touch is not working anymore!! how ca i use this!!!!!!!!! also my connection to mobile net is lost!!!! shuhada!!! my 4,990 is lost now!!!

  • WORST quality compared to unbranded. Part of the screen not working now but it's not physical damage - Sony Xperia tipo dual in warranty. Mumbai, India. Authorised Sony service centre denied to repair my cell Sony Xperia tipo dual in warranty saying physical damage. even if they say display is physically damaged then where is Mobile drop test quality. if company assume its damage by drop then please use logic - if its drop from a 1 feet then sony parts display quality is worst then unbranded mobiles. it should have physical damage outside on body also if company thinks its dropped from more height. what's the use of giving premium price to Sony brand compared to other brands. Sony company highlights their product saying hi quality products. but see the reality. I m giving video of my cell. snap of bill & service centre reports. I myself is a certified senior Technical engineer worked for IBM & Hp. and I knew definition of physical damage. Purchase date 13 December 2012 from ALFA, Mumbai. I have Invoice & box both. I m now going to present the case in consumer court, Mumbai, India. see video at

  • hay gays. I heard alot about update 11.0.a.6.8. but I did not find it. for 4 monthes I bought tipo duel and from the first day it tell me about update 11.0.a.6.5. then I updated but untill now there is no other update. dose the update depend on location? . if any one got that update from his phone ,so tell us which country you are from. may be if I changed proxy I will gat it.

  • i think xperia tipo dual is one of brand of SONY, for which i have purchased for even SONy logo is there on my phone, isn't it Sony brand ??? so far no satisfiying major update for this device, even not worked over dual sim issue of being networkless when other is busy.... Samsung is too good in that case, they care customers.

  • It is not a (rumour) as the clown stated and misspelled. The Echo problem is REAL! The person on the receiving end of the Tipo phone hears an Echo. There is NO fix as of yet from Sony, they wont even officially acknowledged it.

  • Jb stands for android jelly bean

  • solution's simple. reset your phone. this kind of problem happened to me once

  • my brother since about 3 months bought tipo duel ,it was very bad one(echo sound). but it was with android verson 4.0.3 and without headset. but since one month I bought one ,there was no problem with sound , signal, or touch and it was with headset and with android 4.0.4 may be sony made better phones after the old phones (the bad) .may be. I found some problems like : sound is bad(echo) in (3gp) movies and amr (songs) . games suddenly stop and phone says (sorry,app was stopped) . my hotspot not works because of (ip)that is not exest. always I see ram less than 150 megabites .no compass(why sony?) .

  • i have been using tipo dual for about 6 months. Upto now im satisfied with it. Itz true that there is a network problem. When i am using GPRS or when i get or receive a call other sim's connection get down. But i can manage that problem. No touch problems for me. So far so good. Can play HD games like temple run 2 , Subway surfers and many more. I reccomend this phone to all of you. U cant find a dual sim android phone with 2.9GB internal storage and 512RAM other than tipo dual for a lower price.

  • Please help. My xperia tipo dual flashes a red line around the boundary of my display when opening music player and skipping music, and also it flashes when I go to settings-, it's annoying. Please Help to remove the red flash.

  • only solution for ram is to opt other brand. LAVA/MICROMAX is one of them

  • new phone with preinstalled app thats why getting 400+ MB Ram. when u install more app & play games like SUBWAY SURFERs ur device start lagging & RAM will be at their level i.e. below 90MB free RAM will be available. SONY company rocks & F**KS customer.

  • Hey guyz i just wanna ask that how can i copy a pic from my fb to my phone?? can any1 tell me? i keep pressed the screen but copy option didnt show up...

  • internet is not available from sony mobile to pc

  • I like it , its very simple, small, easy to use. Many things that I can do with this.. and I love it..

  • 1. This is my first phone in Sony and worst among those I purchased. When using gprs through one sim, the other sim loses the network and goes in " not reachable mode". So do not go for Sony dual sim phone. Samsung has developed phones in which both the Sims' network is always available....even when using one sim for voice call, if a call comes to the second sim, it says busy....this type of mobile cost starts from Rs1700 in Samsung. 2. Second problem is camera. Camera quality is bad... No it's worst...when compared to sonyericsson Cedar( cost is only 4000), Nokia's c2-01( cost 4000), The clarity is worst. I contacted Sony customer care. They said it is basic phone in Sony... It means that they are selling basic phones for Rs 10000... So I am advising to all those who come across this fact, do not go for Sony else you will suffer... I am saying after comparing the phone's image clarity in my desktop with the other phones mentioned with full experience.. I am ready even to talk to Sony technical team in this regard.. My phone number is 8790970870

  • i brought this phone a couple of days ago and after some days i faced a problem with touch.But after installing touchfwtools in it, it is running smooth. if i know that i have to face problem like that, then i would never buy this phone.

  • so nice.....

  • sony xperia tipo dual SUCKS. Better go for the single sim tipo.

  • ya its nice only ..... but service is extremely very bad....service center is not responding the customer properly ... the phone having is the service center id totally waste... mostly not attending the phone .......

  • never go gor micromax very bad company If u don't want to buy tipo dual then go for XPERIA E DUAL(GET JELLY BEAN UPDATE SOON) HERE IS THE SPECIFICATIONS:http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xper­ia_e_dual-5148.php

  • those who have not taken tipo dual & wish to purchase then stop yourself. there is much better option for you , go for micromax A115 3d its better than tipo dual. see specifications then you realise

  • But I have been getting very good service from the sony service centres.. I had a problem with touch in my tipo dual and then i went to the service centre and they made it right in that single day itself.. Now i have no problem with the network, voice clarity, or anything. Now its working fluidly!!!! You can't expect more from a budget android phone..

  • network problem network problem network problem... DO not buy Do not buy Do not buy

  • It's very good and working awsome.

  • plz say, which sim slot is best for 2G network & how ?

  • Where can I get it in Uganda

  • wat s jb

  • after using it within few days/week/a month (depends on your knowledge regarding device) u'll cum to know this is a temptation over budget tag. if i wud hv waited for 2 month then i wud had better gadget in my hand so what of other brand.

  • would have been never chosen this f**king company as mine android option if i knew that tipo dual customer won't get JB update. basturd

  • tipu dual is not getting JB Update. they say its not compatible

  • sony already said... NO JB UPDATE FOR TIPO/TIPO DUAL u hav to live with old ics,sorry

  • What is happening...where is the jb for xperia tipo dual. Experia E has already gotten jb upgrade. What about xperia tipo?

  • where is jellybean update damit ? everybody were saying JB update is coming for in april

  • I have had a worst Experience with this tipu Dual in terms of voice clarity, network issues & many more... Recently it even gets re started every few minutes. when approached the service center they need purchase proof to even find out the fault. As I am away from home town I requested to check out the warranty with IMEI number, but in vain. so frds "PLEASE DO NOT BUY ANY SONY MOBILE DEVICES JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE SONY" ITS AN INTERNATIONAL BAND WITH BELOW STANDARD SERVICE & QUALITY.

  • I have had this phone now for approximately six months. I will never own another sony again! The sony tipo dual gave me a multitude of problems in voice clarity,loosing calls sporadically, The bluetooth HD and the tipo work together at times not always, echoes from both myself and the other caller again not always present. Internet not registering at times. Phone support is a joke (non existent) The one good thing was the dual sim option works well handled both the optus and amaysim cards both working in harmony together recieving calls simultaneously

  • most of the xperia mobiles are not Reached my Expectations ..any model it has specific problems ,if you want to buy an EXPERIA mobile we should have to know about phone while not reading this reviews ..we have to conform who are using that particular model..& REVIEWS are also useful ..thanks..

  • plz tell me that the both sims are active in same time in this phone and we receive call on both sims in same time.

  • tipo dual has dual sim,but its not easy to handle 2 sim in this mobile.its music and cam quality is awesome.net speed averege.800 mh prossecor iz not enough.sometimes u feel this phone working slow.after all its has a valuable price.my rate 5.4/10

  • touch was very bad dont buy this mobile

  • Check your headset setting

  • Dual sim card option waste in this phone

  • I have Xperia tipo dual about 2 weeks. It is perceptible slower than my previous Samsung Galaxy S7500. LED notifying light - no idea if my phone has an error, but it is not possible with any Light managers from Play Store to change LED color, this have only red and darkblue and pink - for blinking notifikation, or green for permanent lighting. It is also not possible to bring grenn to blinking. It is slow with incoming call like would be searching the melody too long. Whatsapp want not play any notifikations melody. Sometimes I get call for SIM2 but it shows wrong call from SIM1... And lastly camera . . . is very poor. Without macro, without autofocus, pictures are very poor. What means - touch focus - I do not know, but there is no right focus. But, I have not found something like such small dimensions. And LED blinking light I miss by Samsung Android phones.

Great thing is, it is android 4.0.3. Supports all major apps. Officially looking good model to say compared to other big screen slate like cell phones which will look odd in offices. any way if some problem occurs, you will have warranty to get repair your cell. buy it.

  • I also feel useless mobile. I bought a xperia dual mobile. I faced following problem in mobile 1. Second sim is not Recognized 2. Touch screen is not working properly.

  • i've been using the phone since April 01, 2013. The first problem that I had encountered is the touch screen response. After so much research i found out that you need to install a third party application which will calibrate the touch screen response of the xperia tipo. Dual stand by is working for me, but when you need to send text messages or make a call you can use the sim switch button on the side to select your preferred sim. as of now the phone is smooth and working fine. just an additional review. when playing HD games such as temple run 2 you might encounter screen lags. if you have any further questions you may email me at [email protected].

  • this is notonly smartphone but also nice&good mobile. I LIKE THIS MOBILE

  • tipo dual has html 5 and xperia tipo has html. is there a huge difference? please help I'm going to buy one of them.

  • What'd you say?!?

  • This Sony Xperia Tipo Dual has "Dual problems" -- 1. Not Dual Stand-by and 2. Echo problem for the caller on the other side. Otherwise a nice phone to hangout with. Echo problem solved (somewhat, I think) by 1.Removing back cover 2. Disabling xLOUD and 3. All sounds volume levels put at 75%. But Sony should come with a solution to this problem ASAP, even the latest update 11.0.A.6.8 did not solved the 'Echo problem'.

  • Im going to buy this mob.....i thnk its a good mobile for new android user...

  • any official site must be there for SONY for suggetions on improvement of the device/company's gadgets.. inbuilt call blocking options, app locking/fake message showing option likewise many... rather goning for everything on google play store & wasting money

  • ya apps r there but r useless too, coz 1st it makes a ring for caller then hangs the call. afterwords caller says/messages ,y r u cutting my calls ?

  • There are some applications in google play thrugh wch we can block d calls from unwanted numbers

  • Am going to buy tipo dual pls tell how was the mobile it's good r bad

I would like to set up a mode: If this number calls me, it will be redirected somwhere so my mobile wouldn't ring, it wouldn't perceive that call. Hope I could explain it well. Thanks your help in advance! :)

  • good one

  • maybe yes... It is operating with ICS 4.0.4 and Y duos ends in 2.3.6 and it has an internal application storage of 768 MB and 2.2 GB for other purpose and u can also add additional mmc card up 2 32 GB... but y duos only have an 146 MB flash memory for application usage which cause "memory low" issue and maybe in the case of battery backup Y duos is much ahead of xperia tipo dual

  • Xperia tipo ofcourse has a dual sim standby... Works both sim at a time. but causes some problem when u put both 2G sim on it and browse internet with one...

  • its a very good phone in this range.

  • AMAZING... Super Amazing phone... Very good resolution too.. And 512mb ram is more than enough. Didn't use double simple yet so I don't know much about that..

  • battary built in or what?

  • battery life is excellent! if your battery life is short, something is wrong. that is one of the things i like best about this phone. there are many others.

  • Don't purchase Sony tipo dual,it is very bad handset,becoz battary back up is very low hardly per day charging by 3times,believes mi.I bought my mobile last 4month,but problem becomes & service centre gaon by. hardly 15 times.so very pure & bad responses fir Xperia Sony tipo dual,so guys don't purchase.

  • Please tel me, weather sony tipo dual having any problems.because iam thinking to buy it.

  • it means any one sim is in one. dual sims are not activated at time

  • tipo go good

  • A phone that can handle two gsm sim cards, but only one is active at a time hence the term "standby". There are also dual sim active phones which allow both sims to be on at the same time. I don't see any advantage to this though. Dual sim phones use up more battery power then single sim phones and are also generally more expensive and rare (except for all those cheap generic Chinese Shanzhai models, or knockoffs.). This is a good way to save money if one carrier offers a very good rate on say talk/ messaging while another has a better mobile web/data plan. It can also be used if you have two lines, one for business, the other personal. Or even for frequent travellers who use one sim from their home country and another in the country they are visiting.

  • The difference between a dual ACTIVE sim and a dual STANDBY sim cellphone is in the ease in switching sim cards. In the dual ACTIVE sim cellphone, the user can easily change from sim1 to sim2 in one press of a switch. User can return to sim1 again by just pressing the switch sim key again. But in the dual STANDBY sim cellphone, the user has to do the following: 1. User presses switch key to change from sim1 to sim2; 2. User has to specify that the new default sim is sim2; 3. Cellphone will show message that the change in default sim will restart the phone, and asks for a confirmation from the user; 4. Once the user confirms, cellphone restarts, and user waits for the cellphone to become ON again; 5. Once the cellphone is ON, user can use the cellphone using sim2. In case the user wants to change back from sim2 to sim1 again, the user has to go through the above- mentioned steps once more. Thus, a dual ACTIVE sim cellphone is more convenient to use.

  • Change ur sim...

  • Should i buy this phone?

  • hi guys. I bought this phone yesterday. So far, I am very much satisfied. After reading all those comments and complaints about echo problem, I checked it and found I am hearing my own voice when I am talking to someone. But when I checked 'Sound' settings, I saw XLoud option enabled by default. I disabled it and checked again. Now I am not facing echo problem. As far as touch is concerned, there is no such problems since I switched it on, unlike Tipo single sim model, which I bought for my son.

  • Hey guys what's the 7th & 8th imei number in your phones? Does anybody know the original factory imei number for Sony erricsson? Im more concerned about where it was made...

  • No, even in head phone also the same problem occurs

  • Don't buy this phone, it had echo problem

  • You are true. The phone has echo problem and its non fixable even with Sony care

  • if this can solve voice problem

  • I got my tipo dual last december as a christmas gift to my self, my first month with it was totally devastated, unsatisfied I almost wanted to sell it half of its price just to get rid of it. as I suppose to post it on the net for me to sell it ive try toask the net what should I do to save my phone! first reset the phone next update your phone apps next download touchwftools and install it to your phone this enhance your phones sensitivity and its performance also it removes the unwanted feedback for calls. I dont even root my phone yet, but it works more than what im expecting. this is my first time to use sony brand and definitely recommends xperia phones just researh first rather than complaint it wont do no good if you just complaint. get xperia tipo dual works great on me i t may work same with you!

  • I lose my phone.if there any option to find it?with imei ?or can i block it with imei number?

  • the worst phone i ever saw is tipo dual. sound quality even does not matches to Nokia C5. it is too slow, having echo problem, not a dual standby. i purchase tipo dual in the month of December and got jack problem, when i submitted this phone to Sony care, Surat, after one week they told me that mother board is also having some problem, so have to change it, today my mobile completed 22 days in sony care, and I am waiting to receive it. It is my goodness that phone have warranty of a year otherwise I would have been loss much amount. you decide friends to bye this phone or not.... other options are ACE duos at 10.5K, S duos at 13.5K or Micromax Canvas HD at 13.9K....

Just make sure to download app cleaner software from play store and you are good to go! I personally give it a thumbs up for best buy under 10K.

  • Itz awesome phone wd cheap price...!!!

  • I'm using it.. do not buy it.. it hangs and makes u annoy.. poor performance..

  • hi frnds...i have buy a new fone....i saw a tipo dual.....pls help me...buy r not.... v b

  • This phone is really dissapointing. Everything in this phone is slow. Touch screen does not respond. Music with x loud is not loud. Internet is slow, when i try the SIM with my other phone it works much better. I'm looking for a way to get rid of it but feel guilty selling it -- Noone should have to deal with this phone. I wish Sony would just recall this phone and refund everyone who bought it. Not worth your money.

  • Thanks ! I'm nt unique user but the one who always like to keep updating with new technologies :)

  • Hi Raaja, Update means phone software up-gradation, when you first time connect your mobile with data cable is ask for PC suit. I just follow as per messages from sony service centre and directly install Sony Companion PC suite from internet while connected my mobile through data cable. Whenever I connect with data cable it show whether my phone is up to date or not! As simple as that! just download Sony PC Companion suite and update phone to version - 11.0.A.6.8

  • a unique user at last......

  • Hello Aditya10, whats the software update you have done and any documented procedure or link to update ...your response will be highly appreciated .... Raaja

  • Guys update your phone software. I just did today now phone working even smoother and sharp ! SMS counter feature added in settings!

  • it's 4 and half month passed using this cell phone. I was in same situation where most of buyers are right now. It was regret over decision of buying sony xperia tipo dual and not gone for other brand( as I wanted to test sony product first time) By reading all negative review me too feeling that it was my wrong decision.But after a month I started liking this device. If you seen my past comment regarding this phone I was about to sell within 1 week of purchase. But now I used to my phone looking positive values in phone neglecting negative points. Pros: Phone is small compact and runs smoothly compare to other devices. only phone IN BUDGET with android 4 ICS. 3D games works great, infact some games lag in my friends samsung note and in tipo runs like butter. GREAT battery back up as compare to other android devices. internet lovers will like this phone Cons: First and major why I hate this phone because of poor camera quality not expecting brand like sony. Dual sim is not worthy. ( depends on ur use) every phone has negative and positive, no one is complete( only you have high budget to buy high end phones) lots of people complaining ECHO problem but I never faced such issue till date :) may be I am lucky to got good piece from store. I have dropped so many times got cracked and bend too.But still working great. Next I will try my most reliable product NOKIA with new launch of Lumia 620(eagerly waiting) it has enuff for me from phone and I am not fan boy of android so it will be better option for me. Just praying it must be in budget or else I have to stick with my tipo dual for some ore time.

  • yes I am facing same problem.

  • hey guys plz help me i hv sony tipo dual for two months but my touch screen doesnt wowrrk properly i cant long press and drag icons . thats the only problem i have with this device plzzzz help me to solve this problem.......

  • read my review before purchace posted on 2013-02-28 11:52

  • Its SAR value is according to standards.

  • Hi, I am using this phone from last 4 months. in short I am saying please don't go through this phone it has many problems major problems are: 1)echo sound problem:means sound is coming twice when you are talking on phone.I had gone to service center there were 6 phones with same problem. and sony service service is also not good. 2)sound problem: not able to hear music,Fm properly 3)camera clarity is not good and list is more...... please don't buy it.

  • I use Tipo Dual for the last 3 months. Below is my personal experience with the phone model, Gaming: Sometimes it lags when playing bigger games; if you are a serious gamer this one is not a right choice. Call Quality: If you are a frequent caller; I'd suggest that you choose a different model. Sony themselves have accepted the lightweight case create echoes while talking to others and the receiver may have disturbances in hearing what you are saying. Only option is to use headphones at such cases to avoid the problem else remove the case while on call� LOL. Battery: Amazing battery life, stays longs enough for over 2+days with a regular internet usage, music and messaging. Avoid external battery consumption apps (totally not worth the ram memory). Root your phone and use some firewall app to cut the unwanted internet usage and ram usage- do it at your own risk. Internet: I�d recommend this phone to anyone who likes to stay online whole day, it will be a perfect companion. Screen: If you are rookie to touch phones you will love the experience. Not for pros� Overall: a budget phone for beginners and intermediate users.

  • Guys I have been trying to root my Xperia tipo dual, does anyone knows how I may go about this. I need to try it to know if it would perform better. I love this phone, its good for it prize. No sweat. One thing I love the most is the internet, its very fast. And also the gaming capability. It's plays fantastic games that some bigger phones cant play. So it's okay for The prise.

  • every night i used to set alarm tone of my choice from ext. memo card coz it changes by its own... sucks man

  • Need useful help if u knw, how to avoid app related images which comes in gallery after installing any app ???

  • Hey! must go for this phone. Nice phone for this price. Using it from last 5 months...

  • it's not gud mobile. don't buy Sony xperia tipo duel. bcoz it's echo problem having mobile, there is no solution for echo on this mobile and little bit hanging system...

  • Here is my opinion for others well sake: 1.if u want urself only cheated then go for tipo(single sim) 2.if u want urself foolishly cheated then go for tipo dual(No dual stand-by) 3. one more advantage u have, u'll never get attention by company regarding updation,service etc.. don't think company has made this device intentionally budget phone. THE truth is, this device has got bad SAR value (greater the SAR value, harmful for ur body). after this value any company will look forward to empty out thier stock by anyhow, so the SONY did man. Buy at your own risk specially for middle class who is trying to indulge with android world for the 1st time with this much amount, remember 9k/10k is 9k/10k its not 9 hundred or 1 thousand rupee

  • if u wnt 2 buy then buy only tipo(single sim) not dual,coz u never feel thet u hv purchased dual sim phone

  • Hello all, if you have any issue with the phone...do not ask any lay man who doesnot know any thing...please call sony care and get every thing resolved...it will be good if you call the cust care...instead of handling it by yourself...I am using this phone since 3 months..and had some small issues...now its ok...

Friends, that is the problem of Dual SIM Android...We have tested that thing on many handsets from various brands and found that whenever data connection is active (i.e. something is downloading) on one SIM the other SIM will definitely be out of reach....You can test it on other handsets if you can... Thanks! . . .

  • immediately reach Sony service center ,use android tools

  • dont lie men ni its a cool phonr pls buy abd use it..

  • Do NOT buy this phone. There is manufacturing fault in every phone: echo problem, which cannot be solved. Don't waste your money.

  • same case here, I too have wasted my money and time on this mobile. This mobile is now totally useless for me as it cannot be used for basic purpose:calling. Shame.

  • Please people do NOT buy this phone. It has ECHO problem, which is hardware problem. The other person continue to hear echos of his voice. Sony says its hardware problem so no solution. Result:usless mobile. Please DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS MOBILE.

  • yes

  • Tipo is good phone but Dual version is crap. I need to be on call on both SIM cards and at least with firmware 11.0.A.6.5 it is disaster. I have GSM version (from Czech Republic) and both SIMs (but much more often data-enabled SIM) are sometimes unavailable from cell network. I tried to contact local support but that is next disaster experience. I think that dual sims needs some certification for better life of customers.

Please avoid marrying her because other TIPO users have also been there for long. You can use it as an iron box too...!! Before buying it ensure that you have another decent handset for your normal use.... Best of Luck!!!

  • Hallo, SONY XPERIA SUFFERER HERE telling you i am Very dissappointed, never know that even while using net other SIM dies. tipo dual is useless, its better you buy tipo(single Sim only) & save 1000 Rupee as well {{-if you want to buy sony brand}}, otherwise you know there is lot of problem you are going to feel with this sony xperia model as you get aware of its feature day by day under the tag of budget smartphone, i would say bloody smartphone. from next i will reli on newer brands available in the market with fluid touch & great UI. Regreting for 10K mistake..........................

  • very nice phone in this range.

  • Please dont buy this phone this phone really sucks the touch sucks plus it has the echo problem it is very slow cant play games on it can do any thing on it, when typing this phone is so slow in reacting that your better off texting with a nokia phone. but still this is the only dual sim ICS phone in this budget. I only use it to download torrents and make calls, cant text on this.

  • I had purchased sony xperia tipo jst 20 days ago.. and i am facing so much of problems. like its ecoing so much,the touch had not to up to the mark.. I didn`t like it.

  • Hi; i like to buy this phone. but above comments now i scared to buy it.please anybody help me to solve my issue.

  • This phone is the best smart dual sim phone have seen on the market and I much want to have it but I don't know where to find it where I am located please halp direct me where I can find it here in Uganda Thank you

  • Hi alok, Is the echo issue resolved??? I am facing the same at my end

  • I purchased Sony Xperia Tipo Single SIM some 3 months back. Within 1.5 months, the phone started showing echo issues. The other party hears an echo and there is also loss in voice quality. I submitted the phone to the authorized Sony Service center. After repairing the phone, the problem came back within 24 hours. So I gave the phone again to the service center and yet the problem recurred. Since the same problem recurred, I contacted Sony Customer Care asking for a replacement and they FLATLY REFUSED to replace the device and just 'apologized'. I am now proceeding with a consumer court complaint for selling defective product and bad service as well as causing associated expenses and harassment. I would also like all readers to know that when I went to the customer service center the first time, for Tipo alone, there were two more customers facing problems. One elderly person was there and said he was facing some motherboard issue just one month after purchase. Another young guy said he had touchscreen problems. When I went there to collect the phone, there were people facing issues with other models, and it was not the first time they had visited the store. When I went the second time to collect the phone also, there was yet a person who had come there many times already. It is quite clear that Sony is not paying attention to testing properly what they have developed. It does not even look like this is even their playground. It is easy to make a little money by selling customers bad products, but I am surprised they are even getting away with it. Particularly for Tipo, you might want to check out the web with the kind of problems people have faced. The mic problem is definitely a very standard one and is there with the Dual Sim also. Sony has obviously shown very low levels of professionalism in my case at least, very unlike their reputation of others electronic goods. It does not seem they are interested in retaining customers. I am surprised they have even got so far with mobile phones.

  • many dual sim phones have problem.same problem is happening with sony tipo dual.wen i wil use internet from one sim,sometime other sim wil show no network. also it has screen touch problem

  • i brought this phone b4 1weak.this is gud phone with some bad things.i.e screen touch problem and wen i wil use internet from one sim then other sim network wil go out means no network.

  • I am thoughting about to buy xperia tipo dual sim. Does it work nicely?

  • Not only that, the updates also they promised has not come for so long. My Xperia SOLA is still in Gingerbread. They have announced ontheir website that ICS is already rolled out, when i tried to update my phone thru Sony PC Companion, it says my phone is up to date.

  • why i m not getting calls nd sms while i m using internet through sim 1

  • I don't know

  • dont buy this phone so many problems are iam facing like spekars problem and touch problem and networkin probelem also and iam giving to my mobile to service center 2 times in between 2 months of gap please go another one

  • I also regret to buy this product and will never buy touch screen phones particularly from Sony. Post sale service is really worse even at one point I wanted to throw it away. Typing SMS is difficult, transfer files makes the whole system corrupt and screen become crazy and resultantly you need to go back to repair it again and again. Bottom line DON'T BUY THIS CHIKKY PRODUCT.

  • I don't know someone will advice others to stop buying any Sony phone. This is just unfare. I just discovered that the phone is having echo problem when I call others. But when I receive call, it is always very clear without any echo issue. I believe the pphone is still good for it price.it does nor mean all Sony phone is bad. Sony is a fantastic phone, if u are counting good phone pproduct, u will also count Sony. Most of the sony phone have been using had been fantastic, so pls don't condemn Sony, mistakes are bound to be made.

  • To Muni, I should tell you that you are definitely right. Sony mobiles are going down. And also they had the worse maintenance careless center could ever been.

  • I wish this will get jelly bean upgrade that will make it peffect.

  • 1. Sony is irresponsible towards its mistakes in the Xperia Tipo. 2. I have bought Sony Xperia Tipo 2 days back,When I speak during a phone call i can clearly hear my voice in the earpiece. I've changed the sim cards, restarted the device but the problem still persists. 3. I was calling to few of my friends then they are complaining about my voice and inform they are not able to hear me Cleary and they are getting their ECHO itself on their cell phone.Initially I thought that this might be issues due to network operators.Same issues was continue more than week then done many tests. 3. I tried by inserting other SIM cards to my phone and then celled to same numbers �Still ECHO was thereThen I went to service center�where I have given my cell phone for investigation and they inform they will take 10-15 days for repair. The Service Center People are not working properly and not yet all satisfy the valuable customers, no use for authorised Sony service centers. 4. During one hour of my waiting period at service center there were three Tipo user arrived with same complain, just after 1 day after his purchase. 5. Now how come sony haven�t captured in their testing cycle. Its very bad for user that Sony failed to provide basic smooth call connection to user. 6. If this issues is not resolved then I will file case against SONY Mobiles in CONSUMER COURT. 7. Especially as user I will not buy SONY product next time....and along with me you have losed 10 more customers. 8. Service centre timing Mon-Sat 10.00 AM-6.00 PM, which is working times for almost all the people. So even you want to visit their service centre then you have to take leave Un-necessarily. 9. Hello people, please don't purchase any SONY mobiles as of my personal experience and investigated in the market... plz plz don't choose SONY any more. 10. SONY is fooling/Cheating the people. Sony not suppose to do such type of things but still they are doing means irresponsibility. 11. If you are not resolve the bugs please take it back phone and return money plz plz. Finally I can say SONY is SLEEPING ........

  • Hi, I bought sony tipo dual on september 2012 end. I have taken my phone to service centre two times in four months. Echo problem, network disconnect after attending call, hanging, volume control. Camera is too good.

  • price is low so some compromise should do.I use this last 4 months now i sell this due to its screen size and resolution other then everything is ok

  • hi guys samsung galaxy s duos is better than sony xperia tipo and iam user of this phone.

  • RAM goes below 90MB when u using 2-3 apps in a row OR simply only browsing net for 3-4 mins it 'll start lagging coz RAM dies less than 90MB. Such A worst performance by the device, is it 512MB RAM ?????? Can't believe....... And SONY says MAKE.BELIEVE & all is ok. so I give 4star in 5.

  • I love this Phone. It's very cute

  • yes........

  • voice echo problem

  • best phone ever

  • Hi This Is Amit The only bad thing in this device (don't know about other Sony Brand) is that, In Tipo Single/ Dual RAM dies very quickly & ultimately it lets the device & user to weep by lagging. Humble request to company that please Clear this issue.

  • i bought this a month back and its working fine.

  • I already buy Tipo Dual and use it almost a month. Everything is running smooth, excellent and I already download and installed more than 5 application and still the system running fast without hang

  • I am using Sony Xperia Tipo dual and found that the phone is working very slow when u install 2-3 app, u are not able to type even a single charecter also, so that u can thing how the speed of that phone. also m facing the problem of voice echo. my rating to this phone is 3 out of 10. and 3 is only becouse of sound quality.

  • can anyone tell me if the android 4.0.1 ice-cream sandwich can be upgraded to jely bean.???

  • Yes, touch is really really bad!!!

  • hi! I just bought the Sony Xperia Tipo Dual. It lags when you turn on the gadget, but that's okay. The camera's good for such a small tech, and I tried taking pictures from it. I'm currently updating the software, let's see what it has to offer ^_^

  • Well Awesome Performance with perfect graphics and the screen touch is good as well ... i m using xperia and i found this device very nice and easy .. nice work sony ericsson...

  • Hi, I am considering getting a tipo dual. The specifications above states "no dual standby". Hos does the dual-SIM work? Is it not possible to "wait for calls at both numbers at the same time"?

  • Guys was a time that I posted that the camera was not okay. I did something to dcamera, I remove bluish coloured covering d camera lens, now it is perfect. Everything is good about this phone. The browsing power is excellent, screen clearing is fantastic even if u reduce it to d nearest minimum. Game here is very good.good phone. I rate it 8/10.

  • RAM goes below 90MB when u using 2-3 apps in a row OR simply only browsing net for 3-4 mins it 'll start lagging coz RAM dies less than 90MB. Such A worst performance by the device, is it 512MB RAM ?????? Can't believe....... And SONY says MAKE.BELIEVE

  • some one is saying it is a bsd foe no battery backup and touch is slow. pls need reply for it any one suggest as like phoe in other brand

  • Bro I have not experience anything like voice echo. My experience so far is that the voice is very clear when I make calls. I advise u get the phone. Am always surprise at those posting negatively.

  • Nice phone its good,i like this phone

  • Pros, smart price, nice package, dual sim, android 4.0, hotspot wifi, decent look, small size, Crons, camera 3.2 (but i didn't buy it for photography)

  • why my phone is so difficult to search internet?

  • such a gud phn i also use always only nokia and samsung handset bt this time i was thaugt i will purchase different comapny's smart phn so i had taken it..................

  • Brother, postings say that it has voice echo problem. Is it true, how is voice clarity?

  • Does it supports hd video streaming, please tell me... am gonna buy this

  • i Have not support Compass Apps.

  • Plz dont.. its having ECHO problem n there is no solution on this, u can only enjoy msg chatting, gaming n surfing.. but calling ..u just forget abt it. for talking u always need to carry headsets with u.. its just worst phone :(

  • I've always used nokia phones. But this phone exceeded my expectations. Such a good phone but it lacked an in-built audio recorder :-( who cares abt it though, we've android OS. we can download a recorder at any time. Camera... one we remove the cover from the lens gives its best result. internal memory is 2 gb. Dual sim and the mode to change sim is tooo good. the phone is worth to buy at this cost.

  • hey guys do u know any software yo get atleast info that sumone tried to contact me on other sim while using net on other sim ?

  • For the first time in life i took Sony Xperia. Always used samsung, blackberry after nokia communicator series. This phone is a must buy because it delivers more than its specifications. it performs great in every sector. It outperforms 1Ghz processors of many costly dual sims. I'm a geek and i'll rate everything so that all of you can judge it. Battery 9.5/10 Gaming 9/10- temple run, temple run 2, subway surfers, skater boy, bmx, etc all running smooth Dual Sim operation 9/10 Screen 9/10 OS 9/10 internet 9/10 Speed 8/10 Look, Feel, Weight, Experience 9/10 Value for money 10/10 Pros n Cons : Pros: price, size, weight, dual sim, speed, gaming, net etc. Cons: no flash, no HD video, screen size, single core 800Mhz, Ram512 But even after all that, this phone rocks. I use a note II and this phone still i feel great about this phone. 1/4th of the price of note II still great superb fantastic value for money I can just go on writing n writing. I'll conclude by saying that one can really go for this phone and enjoy a lot if u dont need big screen, flash etc. Just android & dual sim capability + gaming wifi 3g etc. :) Just awesome !!

  • What about battery backup. Whether good r not..

  • People saying how much we should expect from a 10k mobile..2 major issues which i guess even 4-5k cell would provide accurately 1.echo ,recievers get to hear there own voice 2.Gprs network comes and goes according to tipo dual's wish .. i dont it get many times when needed even though full network available. Other things, after removing headset music player starts automatically . Camera should have been better pics look like someone has painted its poor even in day light. Using since one month its easy to carry,play games using net and amazing looks too. But other things are not acceptable as a user...I got frustated with it a lot of times..

  • I want to purchase Xperia Tipo dual..Guys, will anyone tell me the h/s model no.

  • Bro I would 2nd ur opinion regarding computing power in phones, I personnally believe that Android running on 1GHz is more than enough with compare to S40, Symbion or Windows on multicore processors of Nokia. My personnel experience with Nokia, Samsung and Htc were very interesting and found out that low end Android OS is lot better than other hi-end operating systems.

And When I Complaint About This In Sony Centre,But They Don't Give Satisfactory Answer.........

  • No. Its says "no dual-standby"....You have to switch between 2 sims for any kind of outgoing stuff (calls, sms, mms, gprs, etc.) but all types of incoming works at the same time. There is a dedicated sim-switching button on the side of the phone. So no hazel of going through settings or whatsoever.

  • I have been using this phone for the past 5 days. Yesterday I found a peculiar problem. I was talking to my friend and suddenly I heard a beep and the call got disconnected. I found that a message had arrived. I resumed the call again and had the same problem of discontinuation when the second message arrived. Has anyone faced this problem or have any solution. Sony support asks me to factory reset the phone once again.

  • i don't know why android has Bloody stupid nature of running apps by itself & consuming much RAM on ur device, that too no app is effective either its free, pro, premium or full whatever all r fake,after killing app it agn starts them so what is the use of these RAM BOOSTER apps. i want android OS itself to improve in this issue. very dissaponted, guys don't purchase such boosting apps all r useless

  • z his headphone good qlty sound

  • nice comment

  • You are right

  • hi im using sony xperia tipo dual facing touch problem when i play games. shortcuts setting is also poor somehow im not satisfied with this phone

  • nonsense...!!!!

  • I'm using st21i2 since 2 months. Each function is fine escape whatsapp. It doesn't get activation. And the most drawback is it's camera. It has very poor quality.

  • by mistake company has made this device fully desired featured at this cost, so to sell their other models they r providing jelly bean for other devices but not for this cute device

  • whenever u want to update software through pc companion it says , ur software is up to date in pc. i think updates r only available in care centers not publically online, then PC COMPANION is waste. nokia gives update online & u can do that by sitting at ur home

  • sony Xperia tipo dual is the best

  • this mobile is the best.........

  • In past 1 month, they have sent updates two time. So, your objection is wrong. Last update has fixed all major bugs.
