Sony did not release any new high-end devices during the past few months, and some reports are claiming that the Japanese manufacturer will soon withdraw from the Android competition.
Christian Post Report – However, the phone maker continues to launch its entry-level devices, most of which are bound for the mass market.
According to a report by GSM Arena, Sony is releasing its newest budget phone, the Xperia E4 Dual to India.
In the report, the Xperia E4 Dual will cost around INR 12,490 or about $199, which is pretty affordable for an Android-powered device coming from a trusted manufacturer.
As stated by the model name itself, the device will be able to hold two SIM cards simultaneously on standby. Dual-SIM phones are very popular in developing markets such as China, India and the rest of Southeast Asia.
Unfortunately, the device that will be available will only support 3G connections, and not 4G LTE. That’s another Sony device.
Based on the phone’s announcement in February, the Xperia E4 Dual boasts some pretty decent features such as a 5-inch display with qHD (960 x 540) resolution, a MediaTek MT6582 chipset, quad-core Cortex-A7 CPU clocked at 1.3GHz, and 1GB of RAM.
The device also has Mali-400MP2 GPU to handle the graphics-intensive apps and features.
Other specs include a 5MP rear shooter, a 2MP front-facing camera to handle selfies and video calls, and 8GB of built-in storage that can be expanded through the microSD card slot.
The Xperia E4 Dual runs on a fairly huge 2,300mAh battery, and comes with Android 4.4.4 Kit Kat out of the box.
