Sony Xperia E dual Review

American (C1604)     See other variants reviews Score: 51.6 / 100

Sony Xperia E dual is a fair quality cellphone launched back in the year 2012, which features a 3.5 inches multi-touch display, a 3.2 mega-pixels back camera and a fast 1000 megahertz CPU. We will get a better idea about this cellphone's specs when we get into more details.

It seems like Sony decided not to care so much about the weight in this 4.08 ounces device. Sony is offering the Sony Xperia E dual in 2 color options, black and gold. This cellphone is quite thin and looks really nice, while it's not close to being one of the thinnest cellphones on sale, with a thickness of 0.43 inches.

This phone includes an average 480 x 320 3.5" screen, which makes everything look quite good. Its screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.

Sony sells the Sony Xperia E dual with a fast 1000 MHz CPU, included in a Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 MSM7227A chip and 512 MB of RAM. Graphic calculations usually consume lots of CPU time, so it uses an additional 200 MHz Adreno 200 (enhanced) GPU to help handle those graphic tasks. This phone comes with a 4 GB internal storage memory, a common quantity that should be fine for most users having that this device also has an external SD slot .

The Sony Xperia E dual only features a 3.2 MP back-facing camera. It also shoots videos up to 640x480 (VGA).

This device features a 1500 mAh medium sized Li-Ion removable battery, which is not really enough for a device like this. Sony informs a 6.2 hs talk time and a 530 hs stand by time for this phone.

The Sony Xperia E dual provides Wi-Fi capability (which it can share with other devices around, acting as a modem or router) and the fastest 3G connection type, using HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a SIM card for GSM carriers.

This cellphone also features a couple of interesting features such as Bluetooth (allows communication with other cellphones and accessories) and GPS Localization, and a couple sensors likeProximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

The Sony Xperia E dual is not very convinient considering it is offerred for 455 dollars, and some similar phones cost a lot less than that.
