Sony Xperia J Review

0. phoneArena posted on 08 Nov 2012, 04:35

Sony has a good track record for delivering decent mid-range Android smartphones at very competitive price points, and the Xperia J is the latest handset to join the party. Its 4-inch display and beefy battery are among the features that make it stand out, at least when comparing specs sheets with alternative offerings. A 1GHz processor, a 5-megapixel camera, and a VGA front-facing snapper are also in stock, meaning that the Sony Xperia J could be a bargain hunter's dream handset...

You failed boy, the Xperia Sola isn't getting Jelly Bean, but Xperia J is.

In other words, you didn't help your friend.

could of given it a 6 bro....

I understand you are the Xperia-Knight but you have to ounderstand you can pick up dual core devices for the same price. lol It'll be ok. We all have faith in Sony...

On the contrary...i have to agree with Xperia- Knight. I think it could have been 6.
5 is kind of bleak...

Considering the ratings from PA on Sony phones .. I am not surprised with this ..

5 is more like its a waste .. but at least this is worth considering its price .. should be given 6.5 for its design , battery and screen ..

so is PA?

10. redmd posted on 08 Nov 2012, 07:40 2

OK so when did physical buttons start to get annoying?

They aren't, as long as they are well made. The J's are too tiny and don't click well when you press them.

In the video you said It comes with a S4 chip but it's Snapdragon S1 !

11. hunted posted on 08 Nov 2012, 08:10 6 1

i really cant accept the score you have given for this phone. The galaxy s duos is worst and lags when you play temple run & some other games. It also freezes some time and you have given 7.7 for that piece. Why 5 for this? this looks pretty and comes with same configuration as s duos except dual sim. Oh the camera you said its horrible then what will you say about the s duos? This review is totally useless

14. FranksGT posted on 08 Nov 2012, 10:16 9

its horrible luckily to get a 5. Low PPI, horrible camera, bad proccessor and ram, low memory.

15. papss posted on 08 Nov 2012, 10:25 1 4

Strange... another over priced phone by sony. They need to get their sht together. Also they need a real flagship phone

17. KINGJUAN27 posted on 08 Nov 2012, 20:13 1 1

5 is a heart-breaking rating! so the cheaper XPERIA TIPO and MIRO got rated 7 eachhh, so those models are better than this pricey one?! can u re-rate this phone again?! there must've been a mistake!

18. KINGJUAN27 posted on 08 Nov 2012, 20:17 1

so i guess this is another ridiculously overpiced phone again :DD

19. abboud_eng posted on 09 Nov 2012, 14:25 1 2

21. yusufk posted on 15 Nov 2012, 12:17

What are the DISADVANTAGES in Sony Xperia J?

29. BillZ posted on 17 May 2013, 08:14

Hi all

DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE - IT IS TOTAL RUBBISH!

the main issue is when typing in whatsapp messages when the phone is charging whatsapp shutdowns reopens, bounces from one contact to another, puts in random characters in the message.

I came from a samsung wave 525 using bada, i will destroy this SONY trash with a hammer and return to SAMSUNG or dare I say an iPhone!

THE SONY XPERIA J is the worst phone I have used since my last Sony Ericsson phone about 20 years ago.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!

30. BillZ posted on 17 May 2013, 08:16

I have persevered with this Sony Xperia J for about 3 months and I cannot find a redeeming feature. other than is ability to totally frustrate the user!
