Where did you hear these problems? There aren't any problems reported for Xperia U.

[MENTION=44823]qaisarimtiaz[/MENTION]! Xperia Sola for just a little extra is a better option. You will have the ability to use MicroSD Card as well as Slightly bigger screen.

The only problem it actually has is the tiny screen and non-expandable memory ( usb on the go present though)
I would go with sola if i were u, just like abobobily

Although I am a favorite of Sony new line up and have bought 2 U and a S but recently a friend bought Sola from Lahore and it was faulty, non responsive screen, random reboots.

@qaisarimtiaz! Jelly Bean upgrade is scheduled for 1st Quarter of 2013 for Xperia Sola.
Is it true i thought only phones which have 1gb ram are getting JB, any way my cousin sola is still stuck on GB :p

Xperia U is a decent enough phone five of my friends are using it no problem as such, Bought one yesterday from OLX at 14k

Xperia U's screen is actually amazing for the price. It's really worth it. It also has 1GB RAM whereas Sola has 512MB RAM.

No bro U has 512mb ram, also its easily upgradable as I did, screen is amazing because of very good ppi. If and only IF they have given a 16gb memory or a card slot, I would have bought that phone for myself also .. dont know why but I love the phone for its price. and 14k .. thats like free I bought both for 24k each not so long ago ::S:(

Can you tell me what's the difference between Sola and U?
There isn't any major difference, but one is very important. The Memory....

Xperia Sola has a MicroSD Card slot. It'll come in handy. (Xperia U does not)
And it has a slightly bigger display, at 3.7". Still better than 3.5" of U.

I have seen both xperia Sola and P, but the quality of xperia U screen is better don't know why :S
Xperia P is expensive dude. And its display is much better than both Sola & U, because of high Resolution.

Xperia Sola vs. U ... U has a smaller display with same resolution hence its Pixel Density is more at 280ppi. Thats why it looks a little better.

Both Xperia U and Xperia Sola have same Mali-400MP (Single Core) GPU.

Xperia U, Sola, & P ... all of them are running Sony Ericson's NovaThor Chipset. More information about that can be obtained from WikiPedia.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!
