Well, they simply do not exist .. If you are just looking for an inexpensive dvuhsimochnik to just call. But here everything is bad. It often loses the network. To turn on the second SIM, you need to restart the device. And if you don’t do this, it will think about 5 minutes and eventually freeze.

For a monosymbol: - battery - sound (even from a speaker, like a buzzer, but I was surprised) - Screen (even very good at this price) - smart - fits well in the hand. - it doesn't seem to be buggy :-) (although it may be early) - price-performance ratio: five points.

1. Poorly catching Wi-Fi
2.Camera 2 MP
3. Often buggy, without root you can strain your nerves
4. Small text cannot be seen because low screen resolution
5. Normal sound only in Sony headphones, in the rest, with rare exceptions, something is always wrong.
6. Typing by touch is difficult, so you definitely need to get used to typing without lifting your fingers

disgusting quality. Alas, after 2.5 years it turned into outright rubbish. The sensor died in parts, the movement of the finger across the screen is perceived as single presses, the lock is not removed during a call, etc. etc.

The case began to creak from the very first days of use, which indicates a poor build quality. In the first month, it was terribly buggy: it turned off spontaneously, the Sony Errickson melody jammed (it was necessary to remove the battery because of this). After that, everything more or less settled down. After three months of use, when installing applications, I began to display a message about insufficient memory, although the memory was above the roof. On the fourth month, he began "seizures" in the form of time intervals when he slowed down so much that even calling the unclosed tabs (delaying the finger on the "home" button) was performed only after 5 minutes. shoots using the 50/50 method, i.e. with variable quality: then the pictures are normal, clear, as they should be

Xperia E and Xperia E dual, which differ only in that the second model will support two SIM cards. The rest of the smartphones have similar characteristics, so in the review we will mainly consider the Xperia E, making corrections if there are any differences between the models.
Sony Xperia E is arc-shaped, that is, the rear wall of the case has a peculiar bend. There is a screen on the front surface of the device, under which you can see three touch buttons white backlit controls and a microphone opening, above which is the Sony logo and speaker. On one side there are on / off buttons and quick start camera, as well as a volume rocker, on the other side - a microUSB port. On the top, you can see a 3.5mm headphone jack. On the back side of the case there is a camera, a speaker, a microphone that serves to suppress noise and create a stereo effect, the Xperia logo.
The body is made of soft-touch plastic, which is very pleasant to the touch. The smartphone is very comfortable and secure in the hand.
The dimensions of the device are 113.5x61.8x11 mm, and the weight is 115.7 g.
The Xperia E will be available in black, white and pink, while the Sony Xperia E dual will be available in black and gold.
Performance and software
The Sony Xperia E is based on a 1-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 MSM7227A ARM Cortex-A5 processor with clock frequency 1 GHz, Adreno 200 graphics accelerator and 512 MB of RAM. The device copes with most daily tasks, but it has problems with modern games that are more resource-intensive. As a matter of fact, you shouldn't expect too much from the budget model.
The permanent memory in the gadget is 4 GB, but it can be increased using cards. The device is running the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system. There is a slight difference between the two smartphones: the Sony Xperia E dual will initially run on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, and then will receive an update to version 4.1 Jelly Bean.
The smartphone software includes: a browser, mail client, software for integration with, Walkman audio player, video player and other applications and games. The gadget is suitable specifically for music lovers, as it has good sound and excellent software for music lovers.
The device supports Wi-Fi operation, Bluetooth 2.1, FM radio and 3G networks.
Screen
The Sony Xperia E has a 3.5-inch TFT display with a resolution of 480x320 pixels, 262K colors and support for 2-point multitouch. The pixel density per square inch is 165 ppi. The image quality for a budget smartphone is quite good: the colors are quite bright and natural. Viewing angles are small and sunlight fading is high, but that's a problem with most conventional TFT displays.
Camera
The Sony Xperia E is equipped with a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus, geotagging and 4x digital zoom. It allows you to take pictures with a maximum resolution of 2048x1536 pixels and record video in VGA format (640x480 pixels).
There is no front camera in the smartphone.
Battery
The gadget has at its disposal a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 1500 mAh. The battery, according to the manufacturer, allows you to work autonomously up to 6.2 hours of talk time (GSM) or up to 6.3 via UMTS network, up to 530 hours of standby time, up to 33 hours of listening to music and up to 8 hours of watching video.
Price
Sony Xperia E price for Russian market has not yet been announced, but it can be assumed that it will be in the region of 6500-7000 rubles. Sony Model Xperia E dual will cost - 7490 rubles.
Sony Xperia E video review:
Now many manufacturers are trying to enter the budget segment with compact models that support work with two SIM-cards, it is not surprising that Sony has a similar smartphone. The positioning of the device is pretty straightforward - this is a smartphone for those looking for an affordable dual SIM device with Sony's proprietary design.
Equipment
- Smartphone
- Charger
- PC cable (also part of charger)
- Wired headset
- Instruction and warranty card
Appearance, design, controls, assembly
The smartphone looks great, it immediately recognizes a device from Sony: a silver frame, slightly rounded edges, a separate button for the camera and a metal power button already familiar from other Sony smartphones.
Most of the front side of the device is occupied by a 3.5 '' screen, above it there is a mesh for the earpiece, and below it - a microphone hole and three touch buttons: "Back", "Home" and "Menu". In addition, there is an LED at the bottom that blinks when notifications appear.
On the right, you can see the volume rocker, the power button and a separate key for quickly launching the camera. Sony remain true to their principles and even in budget models do not give up this button (which, in my opinion, is a plus).
They decided to install the microUSB connector on the left side, Sony is not the first to start installing this connector on the side, in my opinion, it is not very convenient.
Above is only a 3.5 mm headphone jack.
The back is made of matte porous plastic, pleasant to the touch. Similar material is used in the Sony Xperia ZL, which is a smaller copy of the Xperia E Dual. On the back are the main camera peephole and the main speaker mesh. The latter has a good sound and a large volume margin, it is perfectly audible even in a noisy room.
To remove the cover, just press it lightly with your thumbs and slide it up. Hidden under it are slots for two SIM cards and a slot for a microSD memory card.
There are no complaints about the assembly, the smartphone is perfectly assembled, nothing creaks, no backlash, no staggering.
Dimensions (edit)
In our time of huge five-inch "shovels" Xperia E Dual seems almost toddler, it's even surprising that a couple of years ago such dimensions were the norm. The smartphone fits perfectly in your hand, you can operate it with one hand without any problems. In addition to being small, the Xperia E Dual is lightweight and feels very light in the hand.
- Sony Xperia E Dual- 113.5x61.8x11 mm, weight 115 g
- LG Optimus L3 II- 102.9x61.3x11.9 mm, weight 110 g
- Samsung Galaxy ACE DUOS- 112.8x61.5x11.5 mm, weight 122 g
Screen
Display diagonal - 3.5 '', resolution - 480x320 pixels, matrix type - TN, material covering the screen - protective plastic. Two-finger "multitouch" is supported. Automatic adjustment brightness is absent.
The screen is the weak point of this smartphone: at such a low resolution, pixelation is visible to the naked eye, and the TN matrix provides very mediocre viewing angles. The worst of all the screen behaves if the upper part is tilted slightly forward - the picture darkens noticeably, and the colors are inverted.
The display completely fades in the sun, it is almost impossible to read something.
There is no oleophobic coating, so it is inconvenient to move your finger across the screen, it gets stuck.
Honestly, I already forgot the last time I dealt with such a low-quality screen. Now the majority of B-brands try not to release devices with a resolution lower than WVGA, but large companies like Sony, LG, Samsung are in no hurry to support this trend, as a result we see a scattering of state employees with such “pixel” screens.
Operating system and add-ons from Sony
The smartphone runs on Android 4.0.4 OS, on top of which is installed a proprietary shell from Sony. About Android features 4.0.4 you can read the links below.
I will focus on the features of proprietary programs from Sony.
Dialer and address book... The dialer has got Russian letters, SmartDial is supported. The display of information about contacts has been changed in the address book.
Keyboard... Sony's proprietary keyboard supports stroke input and has its own dictionary. Despite the small diagonal of the Xperia E Dual, it is convenient to use the keyboard, the erroneous presses are minimal. Most words are recognized correctly when typed in strokes.
Browser... It hasn't changed much, one might even say that Sony just changed its icon.
Music player... Branded player from Sony. Knows how to "pull" information about the performer from the network. During playback, you can switch tracks from the lock screen. There is no support for playback by folders.
It's nice that even the budget model was not deprived of proprietary additions and programs from Sony.
Performance
The smartphone has a single-core Qualcomm MSM7227A processor, clocked at 1 GHz, 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of internal storage (2 GB is available to the user to store their files), memory cards up to 32 GB are supported.
90% of the time the device works fast enough: no lags, no slowdowns, but sometimes some incomprehensible delays start: either the paging of the tables slows down, then the scrolling, then something else, I will allow myself to assume that this is due to a lack of RAM.
As far as games are concerned, you can only play simple time killers like Fruit Ninja or Cut The Rope. "Heavy" games like NFS Most Wanted on a smartphone simply won't run.
Autonomous work
The smartphone has a removable lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 1500 mAh. In everyday use (20 minutes of calls, about an hour of mobile Internet + twitter and mail and two hours of music), the smartphone was discharged towards evening. I didn’t bother to test the time autonomous work in video and reading mode, since it is inconvenient to read or watch movies on such a diagonal.
Working with two SIM-cards
The Xperia E Dual perfectly implements the work of two SIM-cards, the settings are clear and convenient. I especially liked the ability to quickly change the active SIM card, for example, in one place good internet at MegaFon, in another - at MTS, I just switch to the SIM card with the best reception and I can use both 2G and 3G without any problems.
Camera
The smartphone has a 3.2 MP camera without autofocus. The camera is very simple, and you shouldn't expect much from it. Its only plus is a separate button for taking pictures, otherwise the photos turn out to be very bad, you can only take pictures of text for notes.
The maximum video resolution is 640x480 pixels.
Conclusion
There are significant complaints about the quality of speech transmission: for example, I heard subscribers with a strong echo, and they complained about the low volume of my voice.
The average retail price of a smartphone is 6,500 rubles in large networks and about 5,200 rubles in online stores. To be honest, the Xperia E Dual left only negative impressions: cheap TN-matrix, low resolution and incomprehensible problems with voice communication. And all this at a price of 6,500 rubles! For this money you can take good smartphone with support for two SIM cards from the B-brand, for example, Fly IQ442 or Highscreen Strike.
Of course, the E Dual is aimed at fans of the Sony brand (here both the proprietary Sony-style and pleasant body materials), but even I cannot recommend it to them.
To summarize: if you want yourself inexpensive smartphone with support for two SIM-cards, look in the direction of B-brands, if you really want Sony, then pay 2-3 thousand extra and take Xperia J or Xperia L. And if you want exactly Sony, and with two SIM-cards, then it makes sense to wait for new announcements, I am sure that we will see more high-quality "dual-SIM" from Sony.
