Sony Experia U Review

Written By Mark Antalusya on February 26, 2012 | 9:04 PM

Sony Xperia U is a stylish and compact handset, and one of its biggest virtues seems to be customization. That is why the designers called it Xperia U, from. well... "you".

The Sony Xperia U is the runt of the new Sony Xperia range. It's certainly a minnow compared to some of the gigantic blowers on the market these days but what it lacks in stature it more than makes up for by packing in a nifty 1GHz dual-core chip.

According to the Cnet, Here is Sony Experia U Review :

Design

The stand out design feature of the Xperia U is a toss up between its transparent strip near the base which pulses with different coloured lights depending on what you're looking at -- shades of light are selected to match the hues of particular photos from the gallery or the album art of the music you're listening to.

Display and hardware

The Xperia U has 3.5 inch screen -- the same size as Apple's iPhone 4S/4. Not everyone wants a supersized smart phone so that's where the Xperia U comes in to Sony's new range.

Sony has added the mobile version of its Bravia TV technology to Xperia U. Colours certainly looked vibrant and even jewel-like on the demo devices I saw.

On the back of the U there's a 5 megapixel camera which is a typical amount of megapixels for a mid-range device. There's also a front facing camera for making video calls

Software and performance

The Xperia U will run Android Gingerbread at launch. It's definitely a shame Sony hasn't stuck Ice Cream Sandwich on from the get go but it does say the U will get a ICS update during Q2 -- so hopefully it will arrive without any big delays.

On the sample I was looking at the menus zipped around nippily enough, however it was not the final build of the software and there were clearly still some bugs in it with several apps crashing on boot up. When we get the final U in for review we'll be sure to put the software through its paces.

Outlook

There's no word on price yet but rest assured the Xperia U will be the cheapest device in Sony's new, Ericsson-less Xperia range. For Droid lovers looking for a more budget handset that doesn't compromise where it counts on power and performance the Xperia U could be a serious contender.
