Sony Xperia E dual Review

(C1605)     See other variants reviews Score: 51.6 / 100

Sony Xperia E dual is a mid-end Android phone released in 2012, packed with a 3.5" capacitive touch-screen, a powerful 1000 MHz processor and a 3.2 mega-pixels back side camera.

Whereas this phone is quite thin it's not as thin as many other cellphones nowadays, with a thickness of 0.43". Sony offers the Sony Xperia E dual in two different colors, black and gold. This cellphone isn't very light comparing with today standards, weighting 4.08 oz.

This phone is equipped with a great performance 1 GHz processor, packed into the Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 MSM7227A system chip and 512 MB of RAM memory. Graphic rendering often uses a lot of processing time, so this phone counts with an extra 200 megahertz Adreno 200 (enhanced) GPU to improve overall performance. The Sony Xperia E dual counts with a 4 GB internal storage, a decent quantity that should be enough for the vast majority of users having that this phone also has an SD extension slot to store songs, photographs and videos.

This phone is equipped with a interesting 480 x 320 3.5" screen, providing this phone with a decent image quality. This screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.

This cellphone includes WiFi connectivity (and it can provide it to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and the fastest 3G connectivity, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a SIM card for GSM services.

The Sony Xperia E dual only has a 3.2 mega-pixels back-facing camera. This cellphone can also capture videos in VGA 640x480.

This cellphone also comes with some cool characteristics as Bluetooth (2.1, EDR) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and some sensors likeProximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

This phone features a medium sized 1500 mAh Li-Ion removable battery providing this phone with a quite short battery duration. Sony informs a stand by time of 530 hours and a talk time of 6.2 hs for this phone.

This device is very overvalued considering it is sold for $ 205, and other similar devices are sold for much less than that.
