I think the SG3 is the phone to beat now, really going to be tough for anyone to match it as Samsung do most of their manufacturing. Apple are seriously losing track, even the next iphone wont even beat the Xperia S I reckon! I cant wait to have a play on the SGS3! HTC One X is also quite nice. Local apps for Android are finally getting some recognition too just cant wait to try 4G out! |

Properly interesting promo from Vodafone for the SGS3 too. A trip to Space worth $260000! Too bad you have to buy a $1000 phone or go on an expensive contract to get in the draw.

Congrats Muhammed, it is a beautiful screen!!
I just say this bad boy pop on trademe the other day, very very tempting at the moment! I havent got much money though  , I would love to know how it works!! Who ever gets it, will get the first one in the country! Now thats what I call exclusivity!

Exclusive maybe, but at $200 more than I paid for the Xperia S, hardly worth it. And it won't be exclusive for long! Also, what does it add? The ability to expand the memory with a Micro SD card? Not worth $200 in my opinion! 
Also the design isn't as good as the S. The transparent section on the latest Sony phones is the stand-out feature!

If things go my way my next phone will be the Xperia Mint, which I think is the International version of the GX. Or may be im confused, but holding out for something special from Sony! |

yep im still here, not sure about the rest!! I tried to click on your link M Oli but no joy, resend it here or message me and I can certainly help you.
Well lots has changed over the course of time, still have my Neo V, running well still, now hanging on for the Xperia V when it comes in on import. Just got myself a Sony Tablet S for $180 off trade me. Its a few tiny scratches but the screen is locked so going to see if i can reflash the tablet so I can use it again!!! Exciting!!
Whats been happening here? Wheres the old gang gone too? |

Not sure where everyone went, got a bit quiet round here. I'm mostly on the like of Xda and the Sony forum these days but pop in here and lurk from time to time. Thats quite a steal for the tablet, very jealous, wouldn't mind picking one up myself. |

I'm still around, just very occasionally now!
How is the tablet chunkybeats? Did you get it reflashed? Gotta say I'm pretty keen for one but won't be able to afford it for a while!
I hope you guys all have a great Christmas next week. Looking forward to hearing about any gadget gifts you might get!

How does it work? Come on Tranced, be a bit more specific!
It's just super quick at everything and the screen is beautiful. Also the design is so perfect... Love the glass front and back.
