accurate one or not? hahaha...later we all get our hopes up for 1700 then it turns out to be expensive.

There's still one month of waiting and maybe they'll upgrade some spec too and stuff. We'll see

Likely to be ±RM 1,900.

I hope it won't be. Although the benchmark is better than even Galaxy Nexus. It's RM 2000 incl Vat in USA. So that would amount to somewhere below 1.7k here.
As far as I know Malaysia no charge tax for IT stuff.

RM 2000 is still within my budget... But, then, it's good if it's RM 1600-1800 only.
No need to fork out some much later only can eat maggi mee... LOL!

Guess more than 2k, 2499 maybe..

If SE wants to be competitive i dont think the price will exceed rm2099

If it's exceeding RM 2099, people might just go for SGS II, Galaxy Note, HTC Sensation XL/XE, Galaxy Nexus, Motorola RAZR, etc.

AP set when first come to Malaysia sure very high one the price.. Until ORI sets come into Malaysia

This is 1st 12mp android oh..sure price high 1... Somemore Sony always hav a great camera tech

But this would be Sony first phone. As a Sony.
+ it's a last year tech. As a dual core they're coming in pretty late. Though the design IS exceptional. I wouldn't get it if it's more then 1.7k rather w8 it drop which it definitely will.
Worse would be price at same price as Xe/XL. We all know the "mp" is just a gimmick.

if priced 2099, ppl might opt for upcoming quadcore phones...
more cores in phone might be pointless but, if same price, why not just get more cores for the same money....hehe

12MP doesn't count, since the sensor is still Exmor R mobile f/2.4.. even Arc/Arc S etc is f/2.4..
Bigger MP does not mean better pics..

Looking at the sample pics and videos doesn't seem better..(Hopefully it's because those are test/prototype units)

I agree with the post above me

is 2099 sony fat chance to turn the table la. they will see sales continue to drop. this is their only chance. wait a lil longer, S3 come out, the next big thing is there again...hahahaha...

Hopefully the coming WMC will reveal more phones to force Sony to lower its price!!

Sony always come up expensive ler.. Unless quadcore phone oledi on the market, they dun care as its not on the market yet..

When quadcore on the market then sony will reduce the price..

upgrade spec and stuff?
I dont think there will be anymore upgrade. what do you think about production side?
what i am trying to say is, how on earth they can produce the demand's quantity if there are any upgrades?


Yea3, the first 12MP cam =D
To add on, Sony also has BRAVIA engine, DLNA and so on. Good to buy this phone haha

More quaddies phones from other competitors leads to much lower price for Sony Xperia S

cannot buy SONY phone during launching...SONY phone's price drop very fast....

Upgrade as in performance of the camera and video. And fine tuning it.
And yea ... Sony phone price drop very fast
