Sony Xperia SP – Review and Specifications
Sony Xperia SP comes up with the excellent camera and the range of connectivity that includes NFC and 4G go hand in hand with a great design and a great screen resolution. The model will be liked for the attractive aluminum design, Full featured camera, Media apps are a highlight. The impressive HD screen is also a positive point for the one who will go for this model. The phone is itself a step down from the 5 inch models that have dominated 2013’s headlines. The 1280X720 pixel screen measures a pocket-friendly 4.6inches, and the 10mm thin casing is blackened aluminum rather than the glass-slab Sony Xperia Z chassis.
The 8MP rear facing camera on the Sony Xperia SP is understandably a few rungs below the Sony Xperia Z or the HTC one. The model can be the substitute for compact camera. It uses some kick, and there is a front facing VGA lens for video chat and the occasional self portrait it. It is not so bad looking design as it is translucent bar in rectangular shape. But the model will be a disadvantage if the model is considered in the view point of Battery, low storage space, and redundant online services of the Sony.
