Sony Xperia SX Specs

9.0

Description

The Sony Xperia SX is officially the lightest LTE phone out there, but Sony is currently keeping the lightweight champ a Japan-only affair. It tips the scales at 3.35 ounces, or a mere 95 grams, and is 0.37-inch (9.4mm) thick. The light weight comes from a comparatively small, 3.7-inch qHD display (boosted with Sony’s BRAVIA engine for vibrant colors), resulting in a relatively compact body. Under the hood, a 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor paired with 1GB of RAM powers Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Design wise, you’re looking at a rectangular, minimalistic slab available in black, white, orange and pink that should be universally appealing. Sony is also bringing an 8-megapixel sensor with its Exmor R technology for better low-light performance, and the camera is capable of taking 3D panoramic photos. A front-facing, VGA camera will make video calls easier. There’s 4 gigs of internal storage. The Xperia SX will come with the typical range of additions for the Japanese market - an infrared port, mobile TV and mobile wallet.

This device is also known as Sony SO-05D

Smallest android phone with decent specs
Phone owned for less than a year

For a few years I have been looking for a small phone i can put in my pocket and forget its there, and pull it out and use it with a responsive android experience. this phone is it. All decent spec'ed phones today are too big, even mini branded phones are big compared to this. One down side is the battery drains faster than the other phones i have used, but this is a phone for someone who works all day and occasionally uses his phone.
