Sony Xperia SP Smartphone Review

 

Sony Xperia SP Smartphone is a fast and powerful unit perfect for the mid-range clients. Although the price is low, the handset offers high-end Android features. For starters, the offer is absolutely attractive especially that it gives you a feel of what technology is all about. The smaller screen which is 4.6 inches and the lower price compared with Xperia Z offers a new option to clients who want to shift to Sony but cannot afford the expensive contract of the latter.

 

Design

Sony Xperia SP Smartphone comes in a refreshing look. It comes in an aluminum frame that looks and feels great. The chassis gives it a more luxurious and durable design. There are several color options to match the different preferences of clients. Available in red, black and white, this unit is surely interesting and fun for people who love colors. There is a clear, illuminated antenna at the bottom which can flash to different colors depending on the status of the phone.

 

This can also flash to the beat of music or match the dominant color of your photo. If you do not like the antenna colors, you simply have to switch it off. The hardware uses the dual core Snapdragon processor with 1 GB of RAM. The display is bright and images are sharp and vibrant. Sony uses similar technology to its Bravia TV’s to achieve the bolder colors.

Pros

The great design keeps up with the image of luxury of the company. It is very appealing especially with its originality. The antenna flashing different color adds flavor to the phone. It makes texting, calling or listening to music more fun. The connectivity options are attractive especially for people who are always on the go. The dedicated camera button is capable of launching apps even from a standby mode.

 

Cons

Sony Xperia SP Smartphone has a plastic back which looks cheaper compared with the glass panel of Xperia Z. It feels a bit laggy to use. The viewing angles are not that wide and the colors wash out when you tilt the phone up and down in your hands. The screen is noticeably different from the other high-end smartphones even when Sony boasts that it uses technology similar to its Bravia TV. The battery life is average considering the large 2,370mAh battery.

The unit is also more affordable making it a good choice for those looking for a bargain. The lower cost plus the great features make it an almost perfect smartphone. But if you consider the screen and viewing angle, you can be a little disappointed. Overall, this unit is a good start. The average battery, fun antenna and the coloroptions make it more fun and exciting.
