Hey!

Everyone should ditch their fancy iPhones and HTC ones.

Who even uses all the features and who else just loves short 10 - 24

hour batter life? I know I dont. I purchased this Sony Xperia U a 

couple months ago. I get  a 3 - 7 day battery life on it, its super 

small which gets annoying but the best part about it is the fact 

that its waterproof and shock proof! Just kidding, it doesnt 

claim that but I accidentally ran it through the washer and 

dryer an hour long each.The battery came out and there are 

dents on the corners. It works like new, even 

cleaner! Nothing wrong with it!

I got a 5 day battery life out of my S3 5 times in 1 year.That's something!

Please don't ask me how,I've no idea.I've plugged it out of the wall about 15 hours ago,and right now,it's at 96% battery.Made phone calls all day and used it for a little web browsing.I must have a magic phone!

Yes, of course. Tell me, how many times every day does its unresponsiveness make you want to throw it against the wall?

Have you ever even tried using a flagship device?

If thebattery holds the day, then it's good enough. There are so many benefits.

Sure, that phone may work for you, but you need to rethink that mentality a bit.

I've never had any unreponsive issues with mine.

I mean facebook crashed once but thats because facebook is shit, I use it like I used to use my own smartphone.

My battery lasts a long time, I use it daily to browse the web, make calls, SMS, facebook and a few games.

Im not saying anyones phone sucks but in my opinion, price to performace/usege/durability is much higher.

Wait... Are you kidding me?? That is one of the worst phones Sony (not sony ericsson) ever made, It only comes with 8 gb of storage, non expandible, only 512 mb of ram, sony's update to android 4.0 made the phone really slow and there is not much support out there because the processor is outdated (novathor). Also it has a pretty narrow screen that while it is a good quality it is hard to type on.

 

Also if someone is going to buy a phone now the moto g is cheaper and better than the xperia u.

But can it be washed and thrown around?

Unlike the xperia u the moto g does have a water resistant nanocoating so yes it will survive if you drop it in water:

A phone not supported by carrier, yeah! <_<

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

Used it before, I hated it. The display is crap, the camera is crap, the screen is too small, the lightbar is annoying, minimal storage, runs a super old version of android. Just get a Moto G.

How about no, Sony phones can a a pain to unlock the bootloader on, and it would be very unresponsive and I like big screens
