I also use xperia sp, to be honest I was very disappointed with sony support to its devices. unlike apple who is always faithful to her to update the device to the point where weve really not possible. the next day I will no longer use the mobile device from Sony. we are very disappointed to support renewal of its software. we love technology, we need a device that is really supported by the vendor. we will not hesitate to switch to the nexus, htc or iphone that really support the device software update of the device. Unlike SONY

Sony product is the best hardware, but its very bad in his support software.

We hope sony team, listen to this forum thread

If sony does not change his bad mind set, we'll say goodbye forever to Sony

I'm already considering selling this XSP and buy nexus 5 or huawei ascend p7, since both of them run on kitkat, are newer phones, 2gb ram and ofcourse better camera. Sony dissapointed me with this phone. This is not best midrange, is best lowrange.

My 2 cents worth.

Sony XPERIA SP is very powerfull device.
it has same functions as Sony XPERIA T etc. But there are some new features - Glove mode, color notification bar or very good construction.

xperia sp is powerful and it come with mid range price, that makes xperia sp very great. But the software makes xperia sp bad.

all i want is no hot phone, no lag, good battery, great camera

I can name few devices that have better specs on the same price range. Allview x1 soul, moto g, huawei ascend p6, iphone 4s, nexus 4, lg hd or lg g2 mini, samsung s3, s3 mini, galaxy grand, s4 mini, blackbery q10, just to name few devices with better ram, better camera, better battery even removable. My post was not to cry about kitkat but to obviously point out that we were cheated by sony into believing this device is the best midrange phone, when actually is the best lowrange phone. The camera is bad, battery drains too fast on daily usage, phone heats up, restarts randomly, low wifi signal, low audio on calls, notification bar is useless, lagg, apps dont work, can't play movies on facebook app and many more bugs and problems so my post was very relevant.

Many users report about bugs with KitKat too. Why do you guys want KitKat? Do you expect better performance or new apps/properties with 4.4?

I got rid of most of the bugs with the .205 update and I'm happy with XSP now. I'd rather have a bugfree 4.3 than another frustrating process of getting the 4.4 behave well.

It's not about kk or jb. I want a phone that works. If that means kitkat, jellybean or the toothfairy, i don't care what they call it, just fix the **bleep** camera, fix apps, fix heating and battery drains, fix wifi, just fix this phone, I payed for it. I didnt pay 20 euros now, 50 euros later and the rest after one year like they release the updates. Nooo i payed 250 euros on spot for a device that does not work the way it suppose to.

Armix, Sorry for being harsh but that is the stupidest thing you have said in this time frame when thousands of better devices with latest softwares are available in the market.

I am not saying Xperia SP is bad, I myself owned this device and are satisfied user. Recently I had bought MI3 @ INR 14000 (even SP is available at about 15000 now though I had paid INR 23000 for it) and you wouldn't believe it is far better than any mid range device including Samsung's any device except Note 3.

I still wonder why the Ambient Light Sensor doesn't work in Xperia SP...No one can deny the fact that SP does have few bugs and some really are very irritating, one I already have mentioned 'light sensor'.
