TechRez: You are right! l have four good phones including an iphone 5S and Samsung S6 but my "old" Sony Xperia MT15i l bought some years back still beats them all! its old and weather-beaten now but it still produces the best pictures and video l have ever seen! Almost life-like. its not just a marketing problem, they also need to produce phones with durable, metal-like casing..... and then up the price for foolish consumers who are 'price motivated'. May them pay me for consultancy if they try my suggestion and things turn around o! Lastpage! 1 Like |

Wack Design Wack OS And they have refused to change and adapt to how things are- If they are not careful , they may meet their demise like Noka I stopped using their phones at the P900 and K750i series - They just refused to move with the world, even though they almost always pioneer a lot of things, they just do not have that OS and branding needed to push their products |

hustla: Okay, l will look for someone who has that 'cos l wont be buying it as l have an S6 already. But have you tried a Sony Z5 Camera before? If not just ask somebody to take your picture/video, using it and come back to tell us how you felt. Am sure you will ask for your S6 Edge Refund. Lastpage! |

The Xperia Smartphones are expensive... You don't expect an average Nigerian earning minimum wage to be able to afford it. |

SmooshCHN: Ha ha, I replaced my screen twice. The second time being just a little crack and screen became unresponsive. First time it costs over 18k to get original screen. Second time it cost 10k to get a china screen. I've since dumped the phone . this is why I respect Samsung. Team galaxy s6. |

I also have an Xperia z, it's pretty nice and was very affordable. I ordered mine from Amazon as it was too expensive in Nigeria. Pros: camera, keyboard, waterproof, sexy color (purple), and mega slim. It's one of the slimmest smartphones. Cons: price in Nigeria, lack of accessories in Nigeria, I was unable to get any accessories for this phone except the charger in Nigeria. Had to resort to Amazon again. To me the main reason Sony phones don't thrive in Nigeria is due to lack of awareness. I only got to know about the phone because I am a gadget geek. They don't advertise and stuff. What people don't know they cannot buy. The latest Sony phone Xperia Z5 (my dream phone) 23mp camera, waterproof, Octa core processor... I am loving it. 1 Like |

It's Sony or nothing for me.... I used a Live with Walkman for 3 years and upgraded to a Z3 Compact. Their major problem is MARKETING. and for those talking about design, I cannot differentiate a galaxy grand from S4 or S3. Same goes for those IPhones... |

DatsAll1mSayin: At least s4 is different from s5, and s5 doesn't look like s6. Iphne 4 looks different from iPhone 3g and 3gs. IPhone 5 looks different from iPhone 4 and iPhone 6. Xperia z has been the same since z up to z5. |
Re: How Come Nobody Cares About Xperia Smartphones? by Nobody: 7:48pm On Dec 10, 2015 |
Ignorance, carriers and bad marketing strategies. Sony is not selling as much in the US because they refuse to market there. The US phone market is dominated by carriers who dictate to phone companies and this may be why only one carrier has just a few models. Conversely, Sony is quite popular in Europe, especially here in the UK. Although Samsung is more popular. I will never buy scrapy Samsung anyway. And HTCs are kinda ugly.

The problem with Sony phones 1) design: they maintain the same design for their phones of 3/4 years ago. It got boring 2) waterproof/resistant issue: Sony have shot themselves in the foot by making waterproof their major selling point when they have other strong points like camera. Some customers phones have died in water while some complain of having their phones fixed by Sony due to water damage. 3) no innovation: yes, they made the 1st 4k phone but how about day to day things that will wow consumers? They have recently joined the fingerprint train but still lacking in some innovative areas 4) aggressive marketing: Samsung from the off were ready to rough up apple and match them fire for fire. Where apple invested a billion dollars to advert Samsung invested 1.5 billion And were always ready to kick up a storm. Sony were too nice to apple in my opinion 5) they reached a plateau: like in the 1st point they just didn't improve on what they are good at. Their good phones came out like 2 years ahead of innovation(camera and waterproofing ). I think they played their cards too early leaving them without a joker in the smartphone marathon |
