Sony Xperia U review: Fun united

8 June 2012
The Xperia S has all the spotlight to itself in the NXT series, but history has taught us that Sony (and previously Sony Ericsson) can do wonders in the compact class. In two generations of minis and the Xperia ray, the Japanese have delivered packages that no one in the same price range can beat...

      Good job GSMARENA! Very good review, now i can choose n buy this one without any doubt. Everything is good enough comparing to its price.
      A battery test performance would make this review complete.
      U i'm coming!!

          Great review, liked it very much. With all respect to GSMArena team, does the Sony Xperia U really has NFC?
          Greetings to all the team and continue the great work.

              you forgot to mention samsung omnia w - its the only cheap (but not low end) windows phone with a front camera... amoled screen... specs matching the lumia 710... practically the only windows phone i'd recommend to anyone cos the only differences other windows phones have are display size, camera megapixels, processor speed (not much difference) and microsd slot... they're all the same thing otherwise... and Omnia W is the best of them all!

                AnonD-29344, 08 Jun 2012Nice phone with single flaw of limited memory. GSMArena for... moreNot really,having free cloud storage and USB On The Go partially makes up for the limited memory.
                But it would surely make the competition unworthy if it just had a little memory card slot.

                  Nice phone with single flaw of limited memory. GSMArena forgot to place audio quality analysis in review. Sola is better...always!!

                      Nice review GSM team. This refreshed Xperia line is quite interesting. And given the OS update support for last year's Xperias, it's an option worth considering. Good to see nice designed, well built and supported phones from Sony. The only downturn is the edge other companies have in hardware. Anyway the U is a very pretty looking midranger.
