Yes, and that's a reflection of Sony Ericsson's inability to attract a following in NZ in the 'smartphone age'. Everyone wants an iPhone, a SGS2 or a Nexus device. Low-ender's rave about the Ideos and Defy models. Even Ericsson doesn't want to know about anymore.

Some of the newly announced SE phones look okay but it's more likely my next device will be an HTC on Android or a Nokia on WP7. There's no compelling reason to get a phone these days and I'm not convinced I need a SONY branded one either.

Hello everyone, thought I might drop in and say hi.

I'm still running my X10 and still enjoy it for the most part. But I know my next phone will be an iPhone of some sort, that is definitely for sure. Sony Ericsson, or Sony as it is now, phones barely interest me and I'm a bit over Android. The apps on the iPhone seem much better and interest me a lot more. The only app I'll miss is Twicca, my Twitter app!

In other self-related news, a truck crashed into my car and wrote it off, so I bought a BMW 318i and I'm still in Auckland studying! I'll try to keep checking in here to see how people are doing. I'm keen to catch up with the few people that still visit this thread.

Nobody around huh?

To be honest I'm quite tempted by the Sony Xperia S now! I like the way import prices drop like flies too... I'll be able to afford one within a few months I think!

Guess so

How you've been?

This phone has been a success. We'll wait till you get your phone then. Good luck.

Hey Tranced, nice to see you in here! I've been good... Definitely miss the old days of Esato though!

I'll be sure to come and post about the Xperia S if and when I get one!

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!
