Sony Xperia C3 Review

Sony Xperia C3 is an impressive Android phone released back in 2014, coming with an enormous 5.5" capacitive display, an extremely powerful 1200 megahertz Quad-Core CPU, and two cameras, an 8 MP back-facing camera and a 5 MP front side camera. That's everything we have to say? No, it's only the introduction of a detailed review.

This phone is equipped with an exceptional Quad-Core processor running at 1200 MHz, packed into the Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 8926 chip and only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little poor considering the Sony Xperia C3's awesome processing power. Graphic calculations generally uses a lot of processing time, so this phone also has an extra 450 MHz Adreno 305 graphic processing unit to unload the processor. A nice advantage of the Sony Xperia C3 is its 8 GB quite large internal memory and an SD card slot, allowing you to install a couple hundred apps without worrying about space.

Sony made this cellphone in black, green and white. The Sony Xperia C3 is only 6.15" long, but it is still able to fit a a 5.5" display. Being just 0.3" thick,this cellphone is incredibly slim and practical. Sony made an amazing optimization job making the Sony Xperia C3 weight just 5.28 ounces.

This device features two cameras, an 8 megapixels back facing camera and a 5 MP front facing camera. This phone also shoots videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD). Additionally, this cellphone's camera also includes a lot of interesting characteristics: flash, auto-focus, fast burst mode, digital image stabilization, face detection shooting, smile detection shooting, HDR mode and geo tagging.

Sony packed the Sony Xperia C3 with a interesting 5.5-inches display, and a 1280 x 720 (HD) resolution, providing this phone with a nice image quality. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multi touch gestures.

This cellphone counts with wifi connection (which can be provided to other devices acting as a wireless router), LTE 4G fast internet connection and also HSPA+ internet connection, a slower 4G type and fast 3G internet connection, using HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone uses a Micro SIM card to use GSM services.

This cellphone comes with a 2500 mAh long lasting non-replaceable battery, enough to provide the Sony Xperia C3 with an impressive battery life. Sony claims this cellphone has a talk time of 11 hs and a stand by time of 1040 hours. An issue to take into consideration is that this cellphone's battery is not removable so you can't change it when it begins to get older, though with such a great capacity you will probably discard this cellphone before it becomes an issue.

The Sony Xperia C3 also features a couple nice characteristics like Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth and GPS (Global Positioning System), and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

The Sony Xperia C3 costs around $ 399, which is not a good offer for this type of cellphone. If you need a phone to majorly use social networks and internet browsing, want this cellphone for playing games or are looking for a phone for work, you will probably love this phone.
