LT30AT 5 5 3 3

This is a very good phone I skipped this phone months ago thinking all these new phones coming out would be better, but this phone is amazing. The camera and video beat almost all phones except for the S4 and the new Xperia Z and ZL. It is close to an S4 and Xperia Z, just less expensive and slightly, but not noticibly, smaller screen. It is a phone that conveys style. It is not some cheap plastic looking thing. It really is the perfect phone for James Bond. May 29, 2013

Xperia TL Review Outstanding phone with all the bells and whistles! This is an amazing phone. BUT, don't try using another cellphone network other than AT&T. It is specifically still locked to them. An "Unlocked" phone in this case only means you are not locked into a 2-year contract with AT&T. I tried selecting T-Mobile for this phone, was redirected to Sony Xperia Support, and was told that only AT&T will work with the phone. Period. Wish Sony had mentioned this fact in the product description. December 5, 2012

Excellent Mobile Device Everything embedded on this device is super awesome...This is a next generation real mobile device that has the award winning arc design and contains one of the greatest cameras. It is the king of king in smartphone technology... You don't need up to date hardware technology to be the best... This is a great example... I would encourage people to give a chance for this device... Sony will rule in U.S as they rule in Europe, Asia and Middle-East. November 12, 2012
