Comparisons Featuring Sony Xperia E dual

Short Review

  • The Sony Xperia E dual features a compact design with dimensions of 113.5 x 61.8 x 11 mm and a weight of 115.7g, available in black and gold.
  • Its 3.5-inch TFT display has a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 165 ppi, which may appear basic by modern standards.
  • Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7227A Snapdragon S1 chipset, a 1.0 GHz Cortex-A5 CPU, and 512MB of RAM, resulting in limited multitasking capabilities.
  • The rear camera is 3.15 MP, capable of recording video at 480p, but lacks advanced features like optical image stabilization.
  • Battery life is supported by a 1530 mAh capacity, with no fast charging or wireless charging options available.
  • The device runs on Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), upgradeable to 4.1.1 (Jelly Bean), featuring Timescape UI for a customized user experience.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The absence of a front-facing camera limits selfie capabilities, with no stereo speakers present.
  • Overall, the Xperia E dual is a basic smartphone that serves essential functions without advanced features.
  • Its design and build quality reflect its 2013 release, catering to users seeking simplicity.
