My 3 weeks old sony xperia u has started to lag a bit
and the touch screen has lost responsiveness!!
typing is very difficult now
please help!!
This is just the start..... It will be gone in every **bleep** portion of your screen... um experiencing the same problem
yes, I also have the same problem
today my xperia U is 1 year old, yesterday this problem begun, it is awful to text. Back to Motorola, the last one took 6 years with me, it was a warrior cell phone which became ashes in my hand but until this it was working!
me too, i'm facing the same issue!
My qwerty keypad has suddenly become very slow and the touchscreen overall has become very slow too. Help! I've switched it on and off again and even taken the battery out in case it was that, but nothing has fixed it. It's very frustrating 
Repair via sony update service,a fresh install could help:

If I update will all my stuff get lost?
Yes,unfortunately.You can backup some of your stuff using pc companion.
Will this definitely fix the problem?
I am not 100% sure,if you want to be sure of what has your phone,you should contact xperia care and visit a sony service:
