  • 4G, expandable memory, beautiful screen

  • Compared to other mid-range smartphones, the Xperia SP packs a lot into such a small device and is ideal for media enthusiasts.I think the Xperia SP will really appeal the media enthusiast who loves to snap photos, listen to music, watch videos and keep u...

  • The Sony Xperia SP has the spec and price of a mid-range Android smartphone, but when you actually get the device in your hands and start using it any ideas of it being mediocre go out of the window. It really is a class act, so if you're looking for a go...

  • Reasonable design and build quality, decent performance and battery life
  • Average camera and display, poor storage and software additions
  • The Sony Xperia SP is a reasonably priced Jelly Bean phone that offers moderate performance, featuring a dual-core processor, average camera and a crisp, but slightly dull, display....

  • We really wanted to love the Xperia SP. Decent specs, good brand, a lowish price and 720p display should (in theory) ensure this is a 5 star-toting device. But there's no two-ways about it, the SP suffers from a number of head-scratching design choices. ...

  • The Xperia SP suffers from some of the same failings as the Xperia Z but also benefits from many of the same strengths. The difference is that the failings are fewer, and, at the price, more forgivable. The strengths, again at the price, are more gratify...

  • Powerful chip; Sharp, bright Reality screen; impressive featurepacked snapper; Goodlooking, creative design.
  • Playing games drains the battery and warms up the handset; a tad weighty and chunky.
  • The Sony Xperia SP has some fabulous features, including a clever, powerful eight-megapixel snapper, powerful Qualcom chip and HD Reality screen. The handset is speedy, fun to use and looks great...

  • Decent screen, fast processor, solid build
  • Have to wait for 4.2 Jelly Bean, no HDMI port, camera could be better
  • The Sony Xperia SP is really a very fine mid- to high-end Android smartphone. Well built, with a good range of features, it's a little down the affordability ladder from true high-enders like the Xperia Z but in most cases the compromises are understand...
