Sony has launched the successor to the Xperia E1 in India, the Xperia E3, along with its dual-SIM variant, the Xperia E3 Dual.
The company revealed that both Sony Xperia E3 and Sony Xperia E3 Dual smartphones will be available across the country starting Monday, priced at Rs 11,990 and Rs 12,990, respectively.
Xperia E3 Dual brings you high quality and design in a package made to suit your life. This slim, lightweight 4G smartphone is easy to use with one hand and perfect for life on the go. With a scratch-resistant screen and corners crafted for extra resilience, your phone will stay fresh and action-ready for longer.
One of the new features introduced in the Xperia E3 is the 'shake to start' app that lets users customise shortcuts to access the preferred apps by holding the handset and flicking the wrist.
The Sony Xperia E3 and Xperia E3 Dual feature identical specifications, except that the latter sports dual-SIM card slots. The smartphones bear a 4.5-inch IPS display with an FWVGA (480x854 pixels) resolution.
The Android 4.4 KitKat-based handsets also house a 5-megapixel rear camera along with a bunch of Sony's own photo and video editing apps, including features like HDR and Timeshift burst. It also has a front-facing VGA camera.
