Good luck with putting wallet, documents, or phone in back pockets and do not destroy them after a while or make You really uncomfortable while sitting.

Yeah WTF... nobody calls that shit documents... that's just normal shit every mother fucker has in a wallet...

"Documents" not in a wallet and only 2 pocket pants that we are all trying to figure out if they exist makes me think this dude made this all up just cause he wants a small phone or something.

To be fair I wouldn't keep anything in back pockets because it's awkward when sitting down and it's harder to notice if something falls out, so I'd only ever use two pockets. Especially if I'm at work or something and not wearing jeans.

I keep my wallet in my front pocket, and my friends joke I have the thickest wallet know to man.

None of that means I need a 3.5" phone.

I should have Google's own installed already but that one isn't there either.

I'm gonna check the Play Store again.

EDIT
I found Google's own calendar now but it's not as good as LG's.

Look at Jorte calendar and aCalendar - both have nice widgets from what I remember

Good to see other OPO owners here. Anyone else get a case yet?

I ordered the Walsontop, it took awhile to show up but so far it works pretty well. I like that the case is just thick enough to keep the camera lens from hitting surfaces when you put it down. I do miss the textured back of the phone though.

Ordered this myself as I need a case ASAP and it looks decent and not too expensive.

I also ordered a Nilkin matte screen protector, as I cant stand glossy tempered glass protectors.

The DNA was not the same phone.

It was basically the same phone. I mean not that it's the end all be all, but under the Butterfly wiki it says it was released on verizon as the DNA. Plus multiple articles called it the butterfly coming to Verizon under a new name. Sure it wasn't 100% the same, but that's reaaaallllyyy splitting hairs.

Yes but I seriously doubt Verizon will get a version of this. They stopped doing Droid for non Moto phones.

Picked up an Orzly hard case for a few quid to keep me going until Diztronic's TPU case finally hits. Reminds me a little of the Incipio Feather, it's really low profile and barely adds to the bulk.

You guys will have to let me know how they handle everyday usage. I don't have too much confidence in the Walstontop, I like the fit but it's pretty thin and just doesn't feel like it would aid much in the event of a drop. I'll probably pick up the Diztronic once it's released as it looks more sturdy.

Somehow (by the generosity of a stranger) I managed to get an invite quick to OPO and have now ordered one for my wife. Are there any ETA when they will start selling the accessories?
Anywhere else you can buy accessories (delivery to Sweden)

Since she's starting studying again in September what apps are good for her to use to help her organise, plan and study?


Edit: how are the headphones?
Any good replacement you can recommend?

There are no headphones bundled as standard. Didn't see it as a problem as I never use the bundled ones anyway, prefer to use my own. Got a pair of Jabra Revo Bluetooth Headphones to avoid wires and a pair of Beyerdynamic MMX102 for when wires are unavoidable. Both were recommended to me by HeadphoneGAF.

Is Sony stepping away from the insane 6 month refresh cycle?

"Sony Corp. sharply cut its forecast for sales of smartphones, one of the pillars on which the Japanese technology giant had hoped to rebuild its troubled electronics business.

…

But Sony's mobile-phone unit, which a year ago had been the company's most profitable electronics division, posted an operating loss amid sagging sales. The company cut its annual sales target to 43 million handsets from the 50 million it had predicted in May. Instead of making a profit, the mobile division will merely break even this year, Sony said. In the fiscal year that ended in March, Sony sold 39 million phones and the division posted a profit of ¥12.6 billion.

"Our estimate in May was optimistic," said Sony's chief financial officer, Kenichiro Yoshida, at a news conference.

Sony stuck with its forecast for a companywide loss of ¥50 billion for the current fiscal year. It would be its sixth loss in seven years.
The dialing back of Sony's smartphone ambitions represents a setback to CEO Kazuo Hirai's efforts to revive the company's reputation for innovation.
Sony executives have said the company needs to expand its smartphone business, because many of the areas in which it competes—from cameras to videogames and movies—come together in mobile devices.

Mr. Yoshida said the mobile unit is reviewing its midterm business plan, and might have to lower its forecast again, to an annual loss.

To keep the business profitable, Sony plans to cut costs by streamlining its smartphone lineup and slowing the pace of product introductions, Mr. Yoshida said. He added that Sony isn't considering an exit from smartphones, but it will be more selective in terms of the countries it targets and its models.

…

A problem for Sony is a lack of promotion via U.S. cellular carriers, an important route for sales. Among the four major U.S. networks, only T-Mobile US Inc. sells Sony's Xperia phones directly. Sony has approached the others—Verizon Communications Inc., AT&T Inc. and Sprint Corp.—about possible joint sales efforts, three people familiar with the matter said. "
