Sony Xperia E4g Pro Reviews

At about $200, the Sony Xperia E4g proves to be a very good value for the money. We started a bit suspicious about a phone with a qHD display resolution, but the screen's other qualities proved pretty decent, the phone is very easy to grab and handle, and the rest of its specs are spot on. Sony made it futureproof with a zippy 64-bit chipset and LTE connectivity, while the camera takes pretty good pictures and records smooth video. Add the typical two-day battery life out of Sony handsets, and the Xperia E4g all of a sudden becomes a viable contender in the sea of Chinese phones at the same price range. For this kind of money you can opt for the Moto G LTE, with a larger screen and a stereo speaker set, though the weaker chipset means HD video recording only. The Xiaomi Redmi 2 has the same screen diagonal, but an HD display and an 8 MP camera, though the battery life verdict would likely be in favor of the Xperia, and it's hard to obtain globally. Last year's Galaxy S5 mini is more expensive, and doesn't have a 64-bit chipset to show for it, while the same goes for the budget Huawei Honor 3C. Overall, Sony managed to concoct quite the fine phone for the category, and the branding on the back, as well as the global availability, only add to the perceived value of the Xperia E4g.
