You cannot say something is better just coz it has higher mega pixels or screen res. It's just a matter of taste. You say you prefer in your opinion the Sony UI. That's your opinion as is peoples other taste with the GS2. Millions of GS2 buyers cannot be wrong. Micro SD support plus removable battery means alot to customers which is something Xperia S does not offer. You can buy the 2,000mAh extended battery for GS2 without making it much fatter. _________________

Advance and faster in what way ?
The sg2 not using last year heardware ?
How bout having a HD screen while having same battery ?
12mp doesnt auto win 8mp but xperia s actually taking better photo .
I think music player is the main thing ppl choosing a phone you don care doesnt mean others dont .
This back to the 1st sentence , while talking about personal prefrence you then put alot personal opinion through your sentence . Talk about unremoveable battery and micro sd , million of iphone user cant be wrong ? this not how the way to backup ur point . " material things doesnt matter ?" again you put ur personal opinion inside it .

To be honest "your" opinion is not the criterion in this subject as you refuted my claims with "your" opinions, anyway I would love to discuss this further with you but I can't be bothered especially with someone who changes his avatar every other day sorry but stability counts in judgement making. oh yeah iPhone owners can't be wrong let everyone dump their phones since they are in the majority.

I'd wait for the S3, its so close now its not worth going for an older device unless your budget cannot stretch that far without a contract.
Peoples opinions are all good but its personal preference that does matter. My personal preference would never be with the Xperia S, i simply hate how it looks and feels in the hand. Its
very square and harsh to hold and feels like an actual brick. I prefer the smooth curves of the HTC One X, which imo is a much better device to hold. Anything so large with a large screen should have some curves to it in order for the phone to be comfortable to hold.
Of all the Xperia S phones ive tried also, ive heard a worrying creak from the section below the transparent strip as if it could quite easily snap off which im sure it could given enough pressure.

And here we go with more Bonovox bull..shit.
SGS II is worse in every area, and it's proven.
The camera is worse and it's proven in comparisons.
Bonovox why don't you use your frustration somwhere else?
Why do you have to post false crap without any credit?
Guys please let's not feed the troll.

I'd say forget the Xperia S, its a new flagship running an old OS,running on a weaker CPU/GPU than GS2, that alone should set alarm bells going.
Either get the GSII if you cant stretch the budget, it remains among the best smartphones, to this day if people want to compare Android to another platform they use the GS2, Galaxy Nexus or One X, it has Android4.0 already, its CPU/GPU still among the best,great camera, slim, incredibly fast and smooth.
If you want something new then look at:
HTC One X and One S, both come out the box with Android4.0 with the incredible HTC Sense4.0 UI.
The One X has a quad-core CPU and 4.7inch HD display while the cheaper One S has a 4.3inch qHD display with the newer Qualcomm Krait CPU (its the upgrade of the Xperia S's CPU).
Galaxy Nexus, the pure Google Android experience, timely updates, 4.65inch Super AMOLED HD display.

Having played with both, I'd choose the Xperia S. It has more pizzazz.

Both s2, and xs are similarly priced. So i would go for xperia s in this case, as it has an hd screen, which is much better for browsing. Major gripes with xs is the older os, which will be updated in this quarter. Xperia S has some bugs now, but so did s2 when it came out.
S2 is thinner and lighter, overall good phone but feels cheaper in the hand until your used to it. xs has a unique design which makes your phone stand out and feels good in hand. If your heavy on gaming then s2 will offer little better results, then again you wouldnt be looking at s2 or xs as both dont offer that. You will have to go for one x.
If you can wait, then s3's coming out, and obviously , future phones from every manufacturer.
I think tai020381 has given the best advice so far. Weigh in your own opinions from the reviews and comparisons and hands on feel, because this thread will be more of a mess than help to you with so many different opinions and arguments.

Erm,do you have to be so aggressive with your words. I,like others in here made my point of view. It was my opinion just like others. So,what is your problem?? I was giving my views to what he was asking. As for false crap & frustrations. Erm,not frustrated & it is YOU that says I speak false crap. I just said what I think. Why do you have an issue with that?? I think it's you with the problem stop having a pop at me just cos I don't agree with you
And @Tigon,so what if I change my phone or avatar why have you got a problem with this. Again,why can't I have an opinion like you. Total hypocrite. Also,what your telling me is that on a forum I am not allowed an opinion?? Really,you just cannot take it when people stand upto your views. What an idiot

wow...this topic is getting really hot n intense...easy guys...
Everyone's got their own opinion and that's the reason forums are for.
As for my opnion, i'd absolutely go for the XS.
1. Design- personal preference though but it's got a fresh look and style.
2. Camera
3.Display
4. Built quality
5. UI (Again personal preference)
6. Processor Speed
7. many more
B4 anyone says anything abt it....hey it's my opinion. You got a prob..don't buy it as simple as that.

You still don't get it and that's the problem.
You don't give opinions, you spread info which is false, spam-like.
And that's a different thing. Judgement is a different story than pretending that you display facts.
You can love or hate whatever you want and be happy with whatever you choose.
But why spreading false info which is just opposite to proven comparisons?
This is bullsh..t
And I'm very sensitive about it.
Also stop saying these idiotic things like "millions of users can't be wrong"
Well yes, they can, especially when they get it for free by "informed" salesman. You know the word "promotion"?
