Xperia M Review 2013



Xperia M Review

Sony's Xperia M handset is expected to launch in August.

Powered by an unspecified 1GHz Qualcomm dual-core processor, the Xperia M is expected to use a 4in, 480x854 resolution display, with 1GB of internal memory. User-accessible storage is a mere 4GB, although this is expandable through micro-SD cards.

The rear of the device includes a five megapixel camera with flash and autofocus, capable of recording 720p video at up to 30 frames per second and with 4x digital zoom, in-camera high-dynamic range (HDR) processing and face detection. A low-resolution camera is included on the front for video calls.

The Xperia M uses Sony's OmniBalance design which, the company claims, is designed to ensure the device is perfectly balanced regardless of which way up it is held. An aluminium power button, which has quickly become a Sony signature following its appearance on the Xperia Z, can be found on the side of the handset.

At 9.3mm thick, the Xperia M is certainly compact, and its 124g weight, including battery but excluding micro-SD card, looks lightweight compared to other smartphones. It will ship with Android 4.1, but will include Sony tweaks such as DLNA support and the ability to throw content to Sony devices like TVs. The handset is also PlayStation Certified, with access to both the Sony Entertainment Network store and the official Google Play store.

While Sony has yet to confirm the UK launch date for the Xperia M, some retailers have begun taking pre-orders with an expected August launch. SIM-free, the handset is expected to cost around £230 and will be available in multiple colours with black, white, purple and lime finishes confirmed.
