haha.. oh the memories. i still have mine. i had such high hopes for timescape with those flowing tiles. sadly, it could never be optimized to be usable in the way sony intended and they scrapped the whole tile idea.

Any words on the dual selfie?
Curious to know if it is 13+8, 13+13 or 16+8.

Haha, dude, so true. I will never forget how horribly laggy Timescape was, yet in the same breath, I loved Mediascape.
What gets me is that Sony Ericsson was so far ahead of their time with the thinking behind that UI, but they implemented it far too early, the hardware was just not ready for it yet. They had the right idea at the wrong time.
Remember how the Xperia X10 brought many features from Android 2.0 to Android 1.6? Good times. Fantastic device, I gave mine away to someone who needed a phone back in 2011.

^yea the X10 was way ahead of its time. they added features that google only added in later additions of android. its functionality was beyond any other android at the time. but being sony's first attempt at android, they didn't do a great job optimizing the software and it was laggy. However, it was an example of sony ericsson's drive for innovation and use experience.
i was so amazed at the facial recognition feature that would find all the pics of a particular person and have it linked to their contact profile. it was ahead of its time. google has only recently added that to the photos app.
i hope sony falls back into the mind set of innovation they had back then. these days it's all been about catch up with a few nice features thrown in there from the camera department but otherwise I feel like they've really taken their foot off the pedal on trying to push the limits.
I remember the days when their slogan was "like no other" and that really made me proud to be a sony owner cause it really was true.

I haven't yet. Currently can't decide between XZ2P, XZ3 or something new that CES 2019 will bring...
Which one are you going or can't decide to buy?

I do not even know if they will keep bringing phones here..
No L2 nor Xz2 Premium here. XA2+ and XZ3 were not even put on their website.
XA2 and Ultra just black colour..
Xz1 is 50% cheaper than initial price..

Agreed.
They don’t seem eager on coming back. I’d be very eager to see a more modern take on Scandinavian Design. Devices like the Xperia Arc, Aino, Satio etc... are dearly needed now more than ever.
Takes me back to the days where I hated Android and wanted Palm WebOS to make it, but when it flopped my only option was Android and Sony Ericsson

I even got my XZ2 via a seller in my local's online marketplace with a super cheap price at about $590 (as of May 2018). Believe me, XZ2 is a great phone. If you want OLED, just get XZ3 instead or XZ2P if you want better camera.
