Sony Xperia L1 Review

Score: 64.4 / 100

Sony Xperia L1 is a great Android cellphone released in 2017, including an enormous 5.5" screen, a high speed 1.45 GHz Quad-Core CPU, and two cameras, a 13 MP back-facing camera and a 5 megapixels front-facing camera. But it's time to get into much more details.

The Sony Xperia L1 just has 5.94 inches long and 2.91 inches wide, but it still manages to hold a 5.5" display. Being just 0.34" thick,this device is slim and good-looking. Sony justmade this phone in 16 777 216 color. Apparently Sony forgot about optimizing the weight in this 6.35 oz device.

This cellphone includes a interesting 720 x 1280 (HD) 5.5" screen, which makes it hard to distinguish the pixels taking part of the screen.

The Sony Xperia L1 comes with an extremely powerful 1.45 gigahertz Quad-Core processing unit, bundled in a MediaTek MT6737T chip with a great 2 GB of RAM memory. This phone counts with a 16 GB quite large internal memory and a slot for an SD memory card, enough to install a couple hundred applications and games without any trouble.

The Sony Xperia L1 provides wifi connectivity (and it can be provided to other devices acting as a wireless modem), LTE (4G) great performance internet connection and also HSPA+ data connection, a slower 4G type and fast 3G connection type, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. This phone supports dual sim to be able to to work with two different phone lines or carriers.

This cellphone is equipped with two cameras, a 13 megapixels back facing camera and a 5 megapixels front side camera.

This device uses a 2620 mAh huge non-replaceable battery that can keep this cellphone running for many hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it at all. An issue to evaluate is that this phone's battery isn't removable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to last shorter, even though with such a huge battery size you will probably replace this cellphone before it becomes an issue.

This phone also comes with plenty of cool characteristics such as NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth, GPS and FM Radio, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This phone is priced around $ 145, quite high for comparing with other similar phones. No matter whether you need a cellphone for work, love photography, want it to play tons of games or are looking for a social device, this device is very appropiate for you.
