And MMX does? :p

Sony is improving with its updates cycle. L and SP should be upgraded to android key lime pie atleast.
Still that is no reason to overlook its great build quality, specs and most of all good support.
MMX is very bad with after-sales support. Avoid it at all costs.
Get the sony Xperia L.

If you want it now and cant wait, then why not. dont get xperia s as its got really short battery life, instead get SL only if you find a steal deal. But i would say better to wait for Xperia L as its got newer chipset and must be much better in performance than the old Xperia range. no point in going for older models, specially in case of mobiles as every quarter months there's something or the other better stuff comes out.

+1 for L. If you can't wait, get S2, but it is overpriced IMO, considering the current gen mobile pricing.

If you can wait then xperia L otherwise l9(price cut round the corner)
Imho avoid second hand s2 its costly.
Galaxy s advance @13500 from croma also seems good option if you not into customisation. Will be updated to jb by may.

mate you have no idea what dual core krait cpus can do. their performance is devastating and on par or even beat quadcores:wink:. X:L easily gonna take over SL by a good margin as its benchmarks are close to 4Xhd which is a tegra 3 quadcore cpu. now here a 1Ghz dual krait on X:L is very close to a 1.5Ghz quad. so never judge the performance of phones by clock frequency alone.
