Review:
Overview:
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V is a scaled down version of Xperia Neo of which price in India is in the range of Rs. 15500/- Rs. 16000/-. It is a good phone from Sony considering the price and the features provided. And it is a welcome relief that the screen size is bigger compared to other low cost Xperia mobiles.
Advantages:
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V phone has Android OS v2.3.4 (Gingerbread), 1 GHz Scorpion processor, Adreno 205 Graphic processor, Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8255 chipset and 512 MB RAM. The screen with 3.7 inches capacitive LED-backlit LCD touchscreen with 480 x 854 pixels and Sony Mobile BRAVIA engine makes that the display is crystal clear. 5 MP Autofocus camera with 3D Sweep Panorama, LED flash and geo-tagging is a downgrade from original Neo, but it is quite good and the phone has HD video recording at 720p video @ 30fps with continuous Autofocus and stereo sound. Other good features available in Neo V include microHDMI port, Accelerometer and proximity sensor, Adobe Flash 11 support, Wi-Fi b/g/n and DLNA.
Disadvantages:
VGA secondary camera is a big letdown. So is the low 3G data transfer speed of 7.2 Mbps HSDPA and 5.76 Mbps HSUPA. Memory card slot access is a problem since it is placed under the battery cover. Another problem is that the phone can play only limited video formats.
