In Depth
The Sony Xperia GX is a rare type of smartphone. It packs a lot of high-end features, such as a 4.6-inch HD screen with scratch-resistant glass, a 13MP camera with 1080p video capture and LED flash, and 4G LTE connectivity. If you take a look at its spec sheet, you may see nothing but good things about it. And of course, that’s not such a bad thing at all.
It runs on a dual-core 1.5GHz processor and has 1GB of RAM as standard. Also, its 16GB of internal storage can be expanded further with the use of microSD cards. Put simply, it is future-ready. And it’ll work with just about any GSM network in the world.
If the Xperia GX can be knocked for anything, it’s for the default OS, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. It’s not certain when—or even if—it will ever be upgraded to later versions of Android. But the more important thing to consider is this: it’s only available in the Japanese phone market.
