Sony Xperia T Review

(LT30p) Score: 62.9 / 100

Sony Xperia T is an impressive phone launched many years ago, including a medium sized 4.5" touch-screen, an extremely powerful 1.5 gigahertz Dual-Core processing unit, a 13 mega-pixels back camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front facing camera. Let's take a closer view of what this cellphone has to offer.

Sony made this phone in 3 different color options: black, white and gray. This cellphone is extremely thin, with a thickness of just 0.37 inches. This cellphone is a very compact cellphone, considering it has a 4.5" screen and it is only 5.09" long. This cellphone is a bit heavy for a cellphone this size, with a weight of 4.9 ounces.

Sony ships this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8260A system chip, packing a high-tech 1500 MHz Dual-Core CPU and only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a little bit disappointing for such a good cellphone. To collaborate with graphic intensive games and apps, this phone also uses an Adreno 225 GPU running at 400 MHz. This phone counts with a 16 GB quite big internal memory and an external memory card slot, allowing the user to install hundreds of applications without worrying about space.

This phone has a completely amazing 4.5" screen with a 1280 x 720 (HD) resolution, which makes all images and videos look amazing. Its screen uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.

This cellphone has two cameras, a 13 mega-pixels back camera and a 1.3 megapixels front camera. It is also able to film videos in 1920x1080 (Full HD). To complete the camera, it also counts with some useful characteristics: flash, auto-focus, face detection shooting, digital image stabilization and geo tagging.

This cellphone includes WiFi capability (which it can share with other devices as a mobile hotspot), HSPA+ 4G connectivity, that is not as fast as LTE or LTE-A 4G networks and fast 3G connection type, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This phone uses a Micro SIM card for GSM networks.

This device also comes with a couple of interesting characteristics as Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth (3.1) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

This cellphone comes with a mid sized 1850 mAh battery that can keep it running for many hours, although you will probably need to charge it even after moderate usage. This phone has a reported talk time of 7 hours and a stand by time of 450 hs according to Sony.

The Sony Xperia T is being sold for about $ 399, which is not a good offer for a cellphone this level. This phone is probably the correct choice for you no matter whether you love photography, need a phone to play lots of games, are looking for a work cellphone or will use this cellphone majorly for social networks. Sony sells this phone with Stereo headset, charger, micro USB cable for charging, and user documentation and synchronisation and file transfer.
