Sony Xperia S (Pocket Lint)
Is Sony’s best yet good enough?
The Sony Xperia S is the flagship handset in a line-up from a newly refreshed
Sony Mobile. With the Ericsson branding swept aside, Sony is striving forward
with a new range of devices for 2012.
The Sony Xperia S leads the charge, but as a newly branded Sony handset, does
it move on from the Android Sony Ericsson devices of 2011? Can this handset,
announced at CES 2012, earn its place alongside a new line of quad-core
superphones arriving in 2012? Our full Sony Xperia S review will reveal all.
### Design
The highlight of the design is obviously the clear bar running through the
bottom of the phone. It is mostly decorative, illuminating to display the
three touch controls back, home and menu, but it also acts as the antenna and
is certainly distinctive. The inclusion of such a decoration means the phone
is longer than others with a 4.3-inch display. The Xperia S measures 128 x 64
x 10.6mm and weighs 144g, so it isn’t the most compact either. If you’re
interested in packing the slimmest or lightest device, then the Sony Xperia S
isn’t it.
