Zapraszam do zapoznania się z anglojęzycznymi recenzjami Sony Xperia T. Przypomnijmy, że model ten za parę dni pojawi się w sprzedaży w oficjalnym sklepie Sony, a już jutro trafi do Orange.

Podsumowanie:
The Sony Xperia T doesn’t offer groundbreaking features compared to the other flagships out there, but it is a pretty compelling package nonetheless. The sturdy arched design will appeal to many, and the 13MP camera will let you capture those impromptu moments on the fly because of the dedicated shutter key. There are no major gripes with the handset either – it is zippy, with expandable storage and easy to access card slots. The only minor issues are with the screen - its coating reflects too much light outside, which tampers with the view under direct sunlight, and the viewing angles are weak. Our biggest expectations were towards the 13MP sensor, but it doesn’t offer much better capture than its predecessor, and the pictures and video quality is about what we find in the other high-end phones of today.

Those flagships in about the same price range are the Xperia T’s main competition, too – the Samsung Galaxy S III sports a larger 4.8” HD Super AMOLED display, which is superior to what we find on the Xperia T, and is also thinner and lighter. The HTC One X has a larger screen too, but its unibody design omits a microSD slot. The LG Optimus 4X HD has a brilliant screen, too, and is as compact as the T, but the camera fares worse. Sony’s phone, however, won’t have much to show against the upcoming Optimus G, which is more powerful, built with premium materials, and also has a 13MP camera like the T.

If you are not a fan of large screens, you can also check out the upcoming iPhone 5 as an alternative, especially if you are somewhat invested in the iTunes ecosystem. Other upcoming threats to the Xperia T are the Windows Phone 8 flagships from Nokia and HTC, which have the same processor, but the Lumia 920 sports a camera with optical stabilization, and the HTC 8X has a dedicated audio amplifier, but its screen is smaller than the one on Sony’s finest.

Good
+ Fast camera with dedicated shutter key
+ Sturdy design with very easy card slots access
+ Strong and clean loudspeaker
+ Helpful Smart App pop-ups

Bad
- Bad screen reflectance and viewing angles
- Call quality should be better
- Volume rocker is placed uncomfortably
- LED notification light is too small

Podsumowanie:
It was so close to being an across the board contender, but short of the final round the Sony Xperia T ran out of juice. Nothing can take away from the fact that the T is a beautifully designed amalgam of the Xperia S and Xperia arc with some soft touch thrown in for good measure. It also offers a great screen, charming user interface and a very good camera as well as a class leading multimedia experience. Available on pre-order for just over £400, it’s one of the cheaper flagships as well, so competes aggressively with the likes of the HTC One X, LG Optimus 4X HD and Samsung Galaxy S3. In saying all that though, it can only be recommended with the disclaimer that it may well die before the day’s out.

Podsumowanie:
The Xperia T is a deceptive phone, with a design that looks and feels narrower than it actually is. Despite that huge display, it falls within the same dimensions as smaller-screened smartphones, with Sony shedding at least some of those exaggerated borders. It lands favorably with Android Ice Cream Sandwich OS, something that was notably missing when the Xperia S landed. But, with a software update now readily available on that older phone (we refreshed the older phone with the latest software to compare in this review) it's difficult to pin any major improvements or innovations that the Xperia T brings to phone buyers.

We still carry a torch for Sony and its tech launches, but our attention is rightfully shifting to the competition. Having both the S and T models side by side, it looks like one is the prototype of the other and we're not even sure which came first. Onscreen buttons and a marginally higher-resolution camera are certainly improvements, but a fully-priced Xperia T is hard to recommend over the now-discounted Xperia S.

Podsumowanie:
The Sony Xperia T is by all means an impressive phone. The dual-core Krait does a great job of competing with many other flagships not only on its home turf, but in the quad-core arena as well. Add to that a display that pushes out an impressive amount of pixels without issue, and a streamlined Android ICS interface that introduces some nifty features and optimizations not offered by other OEMs, you have a package that is very well put together.
However, when it comes to looking at a complete package - particularly one involving a flagship - it's important to take the price tag into account. At the time of release, many manufacturers promote their flagship as their technological pinnacle and tend to hike the price up accordingly, so it's important to see just how much bang you're getting for your buck.
Currently, the Xperia T can be found for €550 in most markets, which is rather steep, especially considering that certain quad-core smartphones can be had for less.

(...)

While we've looked at devices which are much better than the Xperia T on paper, we can't forget to factor in build quality and design. The Xperia T feels sturdier and more solid than both the HTC One X and Samsung Galaxy S III (with the glaring exception of the poorly-designed microSD/SIM card cover), and the curved back panel not only makes holding the Xperia T a more pleasurable experience, but also separates it from a design template that currently dominates the market.
And while the Android experience is something that has largely been the same across different OEMs, Sony has struck a great balance between great-looking apps and features on an optimized Android core that looks fresh yet familiar. True that while the Xperia T may be behind in the numbers race, the software package that it delivers is truly among the nicest we've seen.
Sometimes it's not enough to simply have the best around - you want to make a statement. Where some makers let the numbers talk, Sony are trying to appeal to emotions with the Xperia T's top notch design and feel. We're happy with the meal, but we guess there's room for dessert. And we sure hope Jelly Bean doesn't take too long.

Podsumowanie:
“We’ve been impressed with the quality of both photo and video output from the Xperia T. Sony’s latest flagship lives up to its digital imaging heritage, generating high-quality stills, particularly in macro mode. All of our sample shots were taken in the Xperia camera app’s “auto” mode, with tap-to-focus enabled. In this mode, the phone seamlessly transitions from close-ups to landscapes. The Xperia T’s camera has excellent dynamic range, and though there’s no dedicated HDR mode, the camera automatically launches into backlight-corrected HDR mode wherever necessary. The phone’s 13MP sensor doesn’t seem to be as noisy as the Xperia S’s 12MP unit, though some noise is still apparent in low-light shots when viewed up-close.”

Podsumowanie:
It’s a very nice phone. So yes. Android 4.0 is a superb mobile OS to begin with, and Sony’s added in absolutely loads of new stuff and customisations that keep the best of Google’s updated OS (the new browser and notifications pane) intact while enhancing the experience no end (a sweet Sony gallery app and clever Facebook integration).
The larger display means the Xperia T is bigger and a little wider than Sony’s previous flagship models, though, so it’s not one for those who find the race for ever larger phones a bit unnecessary. Battery life’s also a bit mixed — the big screen means this will struggle to get through a full day of constant fiddling.
For everyone else, though, it’s one of the best Android phones around. The Xperia T is fast, packed with clever software and an excellent camera, so picking faults here mainly comes down to your personal preference for size and design. If you like its looks, it’s right up there alongside the Android stars.

Podsumowanie:
There's a lot that the Sony Xperia T does right. The display is impressive and once you get used to bumping the brightness back and forth, you'll appreciate the sharp details it produces and the nice balance of colours.
There are plenty of nice touches in the customisation that Sony bring to the Xperia T too, like the small apps and the quick pinch reorganisation of albums. But there are still some areas where we feel Sony could tighten up: make the music and video apps more integrated, for example.
But our biggest gripe about the Xperia T is the design. It just doesn't feel as slick in the hand as rivals. It's fatter than the HTC One X or the Samsung Galaxy S III, it nods to the Xperia Arc, but fails to embrace that wonderful waistline. If it's going to be fat, it should at least carry a higher-capacity battery. And we can't help thinking, even after plenty of time with the T, that the buttons are in the wrong places.
The result is that the Xperia T is slightly more difficult to love than some of its rivals. But it also comes in as more affordable, thanks to its slightly below-top-rung position, so if budget is a concern and a large, impressive display is on your list, it's certainly worth considering.
So is the Sony Xperia T a fitting phone for James Bond? There's something brutish about it, there's a lot packed under the hood, but it isn't infallible. What it perhaps lacks is that dab of sophistication to elevate it from anti-hero villain to blue-eyed Bond.

Spodziewałem się podobnych ocen, bo to urządzenie nie wnosi niczego nowego do świata telefonów komórkowych. Ale tego, że ludzie będą narzekali na jakość połączeń, to się nie spodziewałem Jak dla mnie Xperia T ma dosyć paskudny design, nie oferuje niczego poza mocnym procesorem. Tak jak się spodziewałem, zdjęcia nie będą lepszej jakości niż te zrobione C905 czy Satio. Z resztą wojna "kto zrobi cieńszy smartphone" skutecznie uniemożliwia zamontowanie w urządzeniu porządnej optyki i np. xenona. Kiepskich kątów widzenia też się nie spodziewałem po tym smartphonie... No cóż, pora poczekać na pierwsze opnie użytkowników

W pierwszym poście dodano także recenzję zamieszczoną na portalu gsmarena.com. Polecam, gdyż jest to chyba najlepszy i najbardziej obszerny test Sony Xperia T.

Co do wcześniej wskazanych "minusów", na pewno mogą one w pewien sposób dziwić, tu jednak mimo wszystko spokojnie poczekałbym na opinie pierwszych użytkowników "oficjalnych" modeli.
