UK mobile operator Three is now offering the new Sony Xperia U on their network here in the UK, and the handset is available for £169 on their pay as you go offerings or from free on their monthly contracts.
The Sony Xperia U features a 3.5 inch Reality Display with a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels. The device is powered by a dual-core 1GHz processor, ensuring smooth performance for everyday tasks and applications. It comes with Android 2.3 Gingerbread, although Sony has promised it will get an upgrade to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS), which will bring a host of new features and improvements to the user experience.
Camera and Multimedia Features
Other specifications on the Sony Xperia U include a 5-megapixel camera which is capable of recording HD video in 720p. This makes it a great choice for capturing high-quality videos on the go. The camera also supports 2D and 3D panoramic photos, allowing users to take stunning wide-angle shots. Additionally, there is a 0.3-megapixel front-facing camera for video chat, making it convenient for staying in touch with friends and family through video calls.
The Xperia U also comes with 512MB of RAM, which is sufficient for running multiple applications simultaneously without significant lag. The device includes 8GB of built-in storage, providing ample space for apps, photos, music, and videos. However, it’s worth noting that the storage is not expandable, so users will need to manage their storage carefully.
Design and Connectivity
The design of the Sony Xperia U is sleek and modern, with a compact form factor that makes it easy to carry around. The device features a transparent strip at the bottom that changes color based on the theme or the album art of the music being played, adding a unique and personalized touch to the phone.
In terms of connectivity, the Xperia U supports 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. This ensures that users can stay connected to the internet, share files wirelessly, and navigate using GPS with ease. The device also includes a micro USB port for charging and data transfer, as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack for audio output.
The Xperia U’s battery life is decent, with a 1320mAh battery that provides enough power to last through a day of moderate usage. However, heavy users may need to recharge the device more frequently.
