I agree completely with you, but it is only in the event that you have at all there are no games, and on such a far from the lowest gland as in u to play I think it will want to want, then the memory will affect.

Cool smart, but it was necessary to spoil it so much lack of slot under the memory card: fool:



Rep: (54)
616mrdeath @ 05/10/2012, 03:22*
you have no games at all

12 games, but they are on internal memory and only one with a cashem. U U also has a separate memory to install applications that are not included in these 4GB. Maybe they thus stimulate the sale of their new headset? Plus, gently forced to use new Sony clouds? :) Although so much memory is enough for a purely ordinary user: Pofotkal, took it - dropped it on the computer or in the clouds. Music throw in mp3 to 1GB approximately. Maybe some documents are more. And, of course, you can forget about hard rips and seasons of Dr. Haus :)

This is yes: yes2: but I don't see a special point to look at such a small screen films, especially for a long time and a few pieces, well, one can, somewhere on the road and then converted to the screen resolution, because there is no point in HD on Small resolution to watch.
Nik_i_ta @ 05/10/2012, 11:03*
Music throw in mp3 to 1GB approximately

This is more and no longer need, you still do not listen to all, I carry 1.5 GB of music that is not really listening for over a day, well, if the old music is tired, it is always possible to change it to a new one.
Yes, in principle, there is some point in this, and taking into account the big games with Cashem, you won't go to them all right away, there are enough two different genres, but the prizes and in memory for applications are in need.
And this is what I thought, about 6 GB of memory 4 for music, photo and other things and 2 for programs and minor games is available, and what are 2GB more busy? It is clear that the Android itself and the shell with the pre-installed software will occupy about 1GB, I think even a little less, and under what 1GB is reserved?
And one more thing came, after receiving the root of rights, the entire unnecessary software user will be able to demolish and take this space important and programmed programs, so the memory under the program will not be touched and it will be possible to take it to the example of games and other programs that will not fit into the system .

Regarding Charging - complete from Sola and U EP800, as in the entire line of 2011.
Older models are different, twice the faster chargeSony Ericsson XPERIA ray - Accessories

All differences with Sola:

Xperia u : Screen 3.5 "112x54x12, 110 grams, there is a front camera, removable battery, no NFC and memory cards.

Xperia sola : Screen 3.7 "116x59x10, 107 grams, no front camera, Battery Valid, there is NFC and memory cards.

Sola in Russia is more expensive than exactly 2,000 rubles.

It seems that the Sola screen has a better, but this is a subjective opinion from the exhibition.
