Description

Sony Xperia J, the latest affordable addition to the Xperia lineup sports a 4" screen with decent for the size 480x854 pixels of resolution, a humble 1GHz Snapdragon processor and has 512MB of RAM plus a 5MP camera on the back that records VGA video -all specs that are ensuring its entry level status. Internal memory is 4GB, but thankfully we have a microSD card slot to expand that with up to 32GB more. The showstopper here is the battery - it is not every day that we see a 1750mAh in a 4" affordable device, and Sony is quoting the excellent 8 hours and 30 minutes of video playback with it. The curvy, easy to handle 9mm thin chassis of the Xperia J is arriving in white, pink, black and gold colors, to suit every taste.

This device is also known as Sony ST26i, Sony ST26a

recommend!
Phone owned for more than a year

Have had this phone for over 2 years and it has never once let me down. Never had a single problem with it, at all and would have a Sony phone every time after having this one. Although it is not the best of the xperia range, it is affordable and reliable and I would definitely recommend it. only problems are there is little memory space and poor front camera as well as a dodgy keyboard which can be solved by downloading a better one from the play store, apart from that everything else is very good.

Worst touch screen phone in the market.
Phone owned for less than 3 months

Worst touch screen phone ever. Touch doesn't work well. It takes hundred tries to even type a little text message. Very low memory. Apps load data too slow. Poor battery time. It drains within a day even without any use.

Don't buy this piece of crap.
