Sony Xperia Tipo ST21A Deal

MikeObermeyer: This phone is a good value. The phone's Honeycomb OS is responsive and polished. I have WiFi at home and at work. I don't care about the time in between. Buying this unlocked phone will save you from getting locked into an expensive data plan for two years. You will get the full smart phone experience when you have WiFi. This works fine in Los Angeles with a T-Mobile standard size SIM.

Eyaare : Now the first thing I noticed was touch screen issues. It is not something all these phones have, but it is a common issue. Supposedly any Sony Service Center will fix this, or you can get a third party fix online pretty easily. Or you could return the phone. Apparently, though, it's more common that it should be, but not an issue you get stuck with - five minutes and I fixed mine. It's still a pretty cheap touchscreen but it works okay.

Jim H. Liang: ecently purchased this phone, but I got the international unlocked version (ST21i) which is identical- just a different SKU. It is a joy to use. It cannot be overstated how refreshing it is to finally use a small handset again. The phone is snappy and quick due to the low amount of pixels it has to push. After swapping the stock launcher for something like NOVA, it is simply brilliant to use.
