Android version and market relevance

The company Sony in December 2012 officially announced its new smartphone Sony Xperia E dual in the series of mobile devices Xperia E.

“Out of the box” on the new smartphone installed Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which is updated to version 4.1 Jelly Bean. And besides, it is important to note immediately that the model Sony Xperia E dual supports two SIM cards (view all smartphones with 2 sim cards in the catalog).

Screen, body and battery

Briefly describe the screen and the shell of the smartphone. Sony Xperia E dual received TFT-screen measuring 3.5 inches. This is a very small screen, and, accordingly, the size of the device itself also turned out to be very compact.

The thickness of the smartphone Sony Xperia E dual is 11 mm. This model, you can call “fat”, because today many smartphones with thinner cases are already being manufactured. And in such dimensions the engineers managed to put the battery on 1 530 mAh, and this is very small.

Main camera and selfie camera

A few words about the cameras that have Sony Xperia E dual. The main camera, located on the back, received 3.15 MP. The main camera we would rate her 3 out of 5, because at the moment there are cameraphones with much better cameras.

It′s so much an old smartphone that there is not even a front camera!

Processor and Internal Memory

A smartphone without a processor will not work. And the better the processor, the faster the smartphone works. Sony Xperia E dual received 1-core processor Snapdragon S1. The amount of RAM in it is 0.512 GB.

But, more importantly, it′s the amount of built-in memory for storing your information (photo, video, music, etc.). Here you will receive 4 GB. You can still do this — buy a smartphone with a minimum amount of memory to save a bit, and buy a memory card microSD up to 32 GB, because in this model there is a slot for memory cards.

Price for Sony Xperia E dual: buy or not to buy?

If you are looking for a camera phone, then this is not the model that suits you. If you need a smartphone with a huge touch screen, then this is not the model you are looking for.

Let′s step back from the lyrics and talk about money. Selling Sony Xperia E dual will begin in January 2013 at a price of $100. There are analogues of this model from its price segment “Affordable smartphones from $100 to $200”, you can choose any smartphone for the same money.

We recommend buying a new smartphone only from trusted sellers. And preferably before buying the phone hold in your hand, to feel the dimensions of his hand and look at all of its external signs (build quality and materials). Then turn it on and check the touch screen (there should be no “broken” pixels, color gradient), open several built-in applications to assess the speed and smoothness of the interface. Be sure to launch the “Camera” application and take a few photos and videos, then view them (there should be no artifacts or traces of dust on the lens or glass).

We picked up these models at a similar price.
