Well, I have a Xperia Z1 (poor's version of the familly)
I don't spend a day without sayin to myself that I should really hammer it as hard as I can.
I had a Blackberry before it, and it was GREAT to have a realy keyboard. Even with big fingers, it was just a matter of practie to get it right while texting....
The Xperia should be awarded the most stupid of the "smartphones". I use it only for phone, texting and in a few occasion, a little web. I have a few apps on it. Mainly WC games. And Yahoomail... Ohhhh lord! I have to admit that I am not the calmest guy on earth. But I usually manage my anger quite correctly. Excepted with yahoomail app. This POS opens, then freeze for a couple of minutes. Quite comfortable when you have 5 minutes to kill and you think "well, I'll check for my emails..."
Did I also mention that the camera phone is crappier than a chinese Frozen licensed camera with 0.5Mpixel???
And, Did I mention that the sound of this thing is so crappy, that I have to find a very quiet spot to have a call?
Did I mention that the network reception of this pile of shit is almost as reliable as a 50yrs old prositute swaring that she never, ever had any kind of venerian desease????
My half has a low cost samsung right now a galaxy something. Screen is very nice, sound is OK, seems to work correctly... My next choice for sure. Iphones are too expensives, and i get nothing in the apple familly...
Last point, is there any smartphone where it is possible to remove all the mandatory crappy google apps? Google games, Google books, Google calendar, google coffee, goodle doodles... You get the thing right? All this shit eats alt least 30% of your processor, and if you have the cheapo phone, almost 50% of your memory!
