Very good night shots with alot of detail, and real colours.



Congratulations ... seems you're REALLy enjoying this!


Something I'm VERY VERY confused about Android ... something mores than S60 days.

"6. Internal memory - still visible as separate - is around 1,8 MB.
Whole available RAM is around 620 MB, so now about 370MB free. "

^ how does the system determine whats what?
How does this affect me as a new user that is STILL new to Android (coming from iOS/S60 days long ago)?
It seems only the Arc and this have this odd RAM/Storage/Memory half-step business?

He probably meant 1.8GB.
Around half the RAM is reserved for the system while the 670 MB free is used for running the apps , the homescreen,etc.

Of course I meant 1,8 GB!

So, 18GB is left as internal memory for data, app files etc.
Plus almost 26GB of memory card storage available.

640MB means RAM for apps running.
So as 200 - 300 MB is usually used for running apps and services,
you still have the rest available for another apps.

---

Anyway, as I mentioned before, night shots seem nicely detailed without any distortions on edges, something what was sometimes visible on Arc.

There are finally controls over lock screen of some apps and player.

Xperia S also got speedier charger than previous Xperias.

Battery behaves similar to Arc, through the night on idle almost no usage.

Some more:

1. Picasa sync got stuck and there is no way to stop it or renew it.
Does anybody know if there is any process you can stop to help it? Reboot doesn't.

2. The battery went away quite quickly today. I just hope it's a new device and probably my usage is increased just beacuse it's fresh for me.

Honestly doministry, how do you rate the photos compared to the Arc (aside from the Mpx increase)?

Are they pretty much the same?

Honestly didn't have enough time to really compare.

But night shots seem definitely more detailed.

I just got my XP S and I do not see anything on the camera menu to switch to the front facing camera.
What am I missing?

NEVER MIND

Some disappointments so far:

1: Buttons. I don't hate them but it's definitely worse than physical buttons.

2. Because of Picasa sync freezed and Calendar not showing older stuff than Feb I think Google Sync is a f..cking mess.

3. Battery - for now - seems worse than Arc but it may be due to a new device

4. Email app works wonderful but allows to attach only pics, music and video (!!!). If you want send a document you have to use Send By option in file manager or Office app, meaning one email = one document. Embarassing indeed.
