History: Loved my Galaxy S / Captivate... for about 3 months. Inconsistent OS. Dealt with it for a year. NEXT - Lumia 900 Windows Phone 7. VERY consistent OS. Very stable. After a year, very boring.
SONY EXPERIA ion: Perfect Thickness, perfect weight, gorgeous screen and with Android 4.0.4 officially loaded, it's a very, very nice OS. I can't put it down. It took the recent purchase of the Nexus 7 for me to realize how far Android has come and how much I enjoyed it. I just hope that 3 months from now it won't come to a crashing halt, as applications (even your old ones) become bloated and taxing through updates.
I won't get into what's so great about it because you can read that from the other reviews. Whatever they've said is true.
I'll confirm for you what's not so great. The capacitive buttons. They require several attempts to get a response SOMETIMES. After a while, one gets use to it. As a matter of fact, after 3 days of using it, I've gotten better at finding the sweet spot. Still, it shouldn't be this way. I'm accustomed to charging my phone every night. Plus, I have a way to charge my devices in the cars, at work and at home. Battery life is typical for my experiences.
Well - that's it. One gripe. Totally happy with this phone. Got 2 slim, hard covers from Amazon for less than a buck. Might need a screen protector, too as this is NOT gorilla glass.
HIGHPOINT: Connected via HDMI to my SONY T.V., I am able to control the phone with the TV remote (skip through songs, pause movies and such). NICE!
What's great about it: Screen, speed, HDMI functions.
I had to write this to counter the previous reviewer.
Sometimes I wonder what it is that folks expect from a movie based on a fairy tale. This was an excellent movie. It was adult enough for me to enjoy and light enough for my 5 year old daughter to be totally enthralled. She's seen several versions of Snow White. This one had her mesmerized.
Sure the storyline doesn't follow Disney's - but, then again, Disney's storyline is a rehash of an even older version of Snow White. View and react to this release on its own merit.
