Will the LYTRO be in a smartphone anytime soon? I was also was hoping for MORE SCREEN REAL ESTATE on the DROID RAZR. It only has a 4.3" display. It should have been at LEAST a 4.65" display. I am so let down... I know the Galaxy Nexus has a 4.65" display but no LAPDOCK or Television Remote Control that's also a Phone! I just can't have what I want DARN IT!!!

i love this..its simple and get people attention...now that's a market winner...but that's allot of mega bites on file size :23MB per file..this is a great marriage between digital and legacy optics. simple in body shape, but effective in its feature..this idea has just broken the ice of whats been around and whats to come...for that alone ..it gets a 10

legend1000patrick commented on 22 Oct 2011

How is the Rzar back? The Rzar is a flip phone not a slab form factor... The "Rzar" is like a newer version of the Droid X and X2. Should have renamed as the Droid Triple X. But it looks like a decent phone.

AllTechIncluded commented on 22 Oct 2011

Ok, I don't really like the Grid 10, but it sounded like you were bashing it on purpose with random reasons and purposefully avoiding the good things. (not to be a troll or anything :D)

mexus37 commented on 24 Oct 2011

@wsmarines There are apps for making ringtones! Just search for the apps called "Ringtone Maker" or "Ringtones!" on the Appstore and create your very own!

TheLemon404 commented on 29 Aug 2012

@zppapbl yes. this is really fantastic. And, my spouse bought new iphone 4S for just $470 from a cool website. i found it here => bit.ly/Qy8D1T?=dcmnne

@pkerry12 It doesn't matter how many mp it has, aslong as it's HD and 1080p HD capturing with shutter lag, it's one of the best camera's

Grand finale here not even one gadget made in united states. what a shame. bring back all the company in the united states.

8:35 maybe you should call this "Easy Complicated" instead of just "Easy"...too many steps to be qualified as just easy

no one likes a look alike. just like your not going to stand out by being a phone company that's crammed in the unoriginal android os your also not going to be very successful with a look alike phone

nikahatt commented on 12 Jul 2012

I was scrolling through my subscriptions and I saw a white iPhone 3GS and then I scrolled up and was like "wait...what?" and then I read it and was like "bitch, that ain't a fucking iPhone."...

obscuresword commented on 12 Jul 2012

Anyone notice that they combined an Apple Product with a Samsung Product lol. It Looks like a 3S on the front, but on the back since it is white it looks like a Samsung Phone Xd.

Däne Fjordlùnd commented on 13 Jul 2012

Couldnt they at least come up with an original design? People who want an iPhone will buy one, not a nasty copy. Seems like a good phone so just make it original

caslas commented on 12 Jul 2012

I don't know why he said it cost US$530, it is being sold around US$400 (HKD$3099) in Hong Kong for the 32GB. Pretty good spec for what you pay for.

Sujan Kakumanu commented on 12 Jul 2012

I am an android fan my self and i say...THIS LOOKS TOO MUCH LIKE THE IPHONE! Apple, can you please sue them andn not Htc and Samsung ? PLEASE!?

MacPro5598 commented on 12 Jul 2012

Wow, I can't believe you can only get this in china. It seems like a great phone, but I would choose an s3 over this anyway.

bennyblanco14 commented on 12 Jul 2012

Why bother make a video on this crap phone ....why buy a knock off iPhone ...thats stupid ..oh wait its made in china

Eric Quach commented on 12 Jul 2012

Apple isn't going to sue because its China. suing them is gonna be useless. Meizu basically only sells in China.

Yash Mehrotra commented on 24 Apr 2013

It is original... why do people just brand them as iphone copy if the have anything in common?

Chris Philip commented on 16 Jul 2012

Honestly I'm loving this because I know iPhone 5 will change everything all over again....

oledcrt commented on 13 Jul 2012

Dang smartphone processors are faster than the one in my computer. Amazing technology...

Comedy Cubed commented on 12 Jul 2012

Hopefully they make it in black. It would look a lot better (It would match the front.)

Itskiryl33397 commented on 30 May 2012

And while your on that contract, the company keeps on raising the prices. Not talking about tabs, just those "free" phones. I had paid literally 2 times the price of the phone I had taken on contract (Sony Erricson W810). Now that I'm off, I bought myself a 4S directly from Apple, so now even if my company starts "raising the bar", I can always move to a different carrier. And that's a big bonus.

RomanicusMaximus commented on 14 Jun 2012

This phone is a Trojan Horse! Huawei, fully funded by the Chinese government, intentionally provided a backdoor on these phones for exploit by the Chinese military hackers. Huawei and ZTE are under active investigation by the US Congress. If you buy this phone, keep in mind that all your data can be downloaded by the Chinese at anytime

NeutralGenericUser commented on 30 May 2012

Horrible review. No mention of screen resolution/technology. No mention of what skin it's running (looks like unskinned ICS?). No mention of battery size/life. No mention of NFC capabilities. No mention of price. No mention of construction quality (just that the contrast looks pretty -.-).

Itskiryl33397 commented on 30 May 2012

0:32 Sure, nice advertising there. If you do simple math, you'll see that no matter which phone you buy on a contract (take iPhone 4S for example), it always comes out almost 2 times as expensive if you would just buy an unlocked phone. P.S. You're also restricted to 1 network only....

Norma Colin commented on 30 May 2012

I have had the Huawei Ascend 1 and 2. 1 being my first smartphone. 2 being my second, which i thot would be way better than than part 1 but it is not. ): This phone looks really good. Maybe your pictures wont save into your music album covers in this phone.

Mourice Cruz commented on 31 May 2012

so, word a round the Techworld is that this Phone should be released by Next Month in the USA but there is slight word that it is coming to Cricket Wireless ... lets see what happens

Sasu123456789x1 commented on 30 May 2012

First time Huawei looks really good! I love it! I want it to come to the USA and see how it does in reviews and ratings

Chris commented on 30 May 2012

most people think they actually "save" money because a phone on 3 year contracts are usually "free" or 100 bucks.

Impact by Eclipse commented on 30 May 2012

Unlocked phones mean phone network carriers can't scam you off your money. In the long term you pay less!

GamerTimeUSA commented on 30 May 2012

Huawei is in another country. Chances are im not getting this phone because of price and availability.

obscuresword commented on 30 May 2012

Unlocked phones are always better, because you can go on any network instead of being locked in.

Northerndj commented on 30 May 2012

unlocked = no bloatware and how manufactures want there phones to be an not how networks want

adem commented on 30 May 2012

This has Ics and Xperia s has not what the fuck is Sony doing I've been waiting for so long

tomthenothing commented on 30 May 2012

I never thought I would hear Hauwei and stylish in the same sentence.

when is in the world are they going to let jobs finally die? maybe they should have him stuffed and hang him from the ceiling at apple. then those iworshipers can bow to it everyday.

misspeltt commented on 21 Oct 2011

@plainrock124 why not make educated comments ?? if you watch the launch event, they clearly state that it works only on real people, not photos, nor mirrors, etc.

George Abrahams commented on 28 Jul 2012

That's wrong, you can unlock with a photo really easily actually BUT the new Android 4.1 requires you to blink to unlock the device to verify that you are real!

misspeltt commented on 22 Oct 2011

@plainrock124 I mentioned that in my comment above. Watch the launch event, and the demo events. They clearly explain it during that time.

KpopGrrl commented on 19 Oct 2011

That face unlock thing is cool. I've seen laptops that do that. It usually works well but you need good lighting.

DarthLoI commented on 21 Oct 2011

@plainrock124 When you set your type of "passcode lock," it says that face unlocking is low security :P

AlexF931 commented on 20 Oct 2011

what? Ice cream sandwich? or 4.0 and i'm still In froyo!... I feel soooo small right now!! :(

transamspd WSsix commented on 30 Jan 2013

Thanks for the vid, I just learned of this device and think it might be just right for my brother. He's always dropping his phone and tossing it around. Could you please do a more in depth review? I haven't seen one yet. I would really like it if you could test the processing power out as well as perform a durability test; ie, submerse it under water, drop it in mud, sand, concrete and off a 1 story balcony. My brother is very rough with his device. Thank you.

Kyli Rouge commented on 28 Jan 2013

You know, Lyn... you can do multiple takes. If you stumble over your words, you can just re-record that segment and cut it in later. This is especially easy when we don't see your face.

mak450 commented on 29 Jan 2013

Why exactly are you acting like all of her reviews are like this? Are you the kind of person who sends a horse to the glue factory for coming in 2nd once, or am I missing something?

mak450 commented on 29 Jan 2013

and which one was that? None of the recent ones was done this way. Your criticism is probably useless since most of her reviews are much cleaner, watch some of them and you'll see.

Kyli Rouge commented on 29 Jan 2013

no, but I don't think I've seen another of her reviews. It certainly left a sour taste in my mouth, and leaving constructive criticism never hurt.

Kyli Rouge commented on 28 Jan 2013

well they aren't making me want to use CNet with unprofessional reviews like this when I can get higher quality form people like duncan33303

Desu Gun commented on 30 Jan 2013

Nice phone, I'd like to see this get torture tested along with the Casio G'zOne Commando.

transamspd WSsix commented on 30 Jan 2013

Also it would be nice to see the picture and video quality. Thanks again!

kingslave021 commented on 03 Feb 2013

the casio gzone is very outdated, better buy the torque instead.

Sony's Xperia S comes to America! - First Look

User Comments

obscuresword commented on 26 Jul 2012

it is getting updated to Android 4.0 and the processor is still good enough. MobileTechReview did a smack down between this phone, the htc one x, the gs3, and Atrix HD, and even she said you won't notice a difference between the snapdragon process or in the sony, and the gs3s processor. this is reflected in the quadrant scores where the sony scores 4500-4700 and the gs3 score 5000, /watch?v=Iji-HR8C9Zk

bmar577 commented on 26 Jul 2012

Really? I thought the S3 is atrocious, it looks very cheap. I liked the design of the S2, but it had the same cheap plastic-y feeling. I was really looking forward to the S3 but the design disappointed me, bought an HTC One X and absolutely loved it. Sony Ericsson(not Sony Mobile) Made some gorgeous ones, loved the X10 and the Xperia Arc.

zack st commented on 27 Aug 2012

this phone is somthing different in a good way. all my mates have a i phone 4s or s3 they all have the same shit and same apps its so boring. il never buy apple or microsoft. s3 is solid phone. and this phone is great with ice cream sandwich.

Marcus Chan commented on 18 Oct 2012

s3 design and material feels good in the hand. its not all that bad. a phone with excellent build quality will always go to apple and nokia lumia 900 series. samsung is the best android smartphone so far.

nickL7389 commented on 26 Jul 2012

@DdcCabuslay it is actually 2.3, check the phonedog review. sony's launcher just includes some 4.0 features,. so you get and outdated snapdragon processor and an outdated OS..no wonder its so cheap

Dimitris Boump commented on 31 Aug 2012

you know that your comment now is outopic dont you? my tablet has been updated to ics for FREE by google.. i think such a thing happened to some smartphones but im not sure.

meezyrmcrs4ever commented on 26 Jul 2012

thats not expensive,if you want to get an iphone(16gb) on contract where i live you pay about 900 eur (1.100 dollars) it's about the same thing with the sony

Mbaze Pashtufu commented on 26 Jul 2012

Why can't Android companies (excluding Samsung) make good looking phones? And Apple make a phone with a larger screen. I mean this thing's just plain ugly!

Illmatic662 commented on 28 Jul 2012

CNET that description must be wrong. It says $459 but on Sony's site its being sold for $559. The Xperia P is $479 so there is a mistake somewhere.

DdcCabuslay commented on 26 Jul 2012

it did, but the phone on this vid is running ics. There are a few differences between GB and ICS on the XS, and theyre noticeable in this video

obscuresword commented on 26 Jul 2012

I know right. Even MobileTechReview has stated that th Sony Xperia S has colors that are more truer than a lot of the competition.

Krishna Lakkineni commented on 26 Jul 2012

After experience with two xperia phone dying just after year and no fix available I' ll never buy any Sony stuff again..

Hillcow commented on 10 Aug 2012

It´s a really great phone with a superb display, but i just changed to HTC One X, because 4,3" was to small for me ;D
