Sony Mobile India has confirmed the company will be launching its Xperia S smartphone in India on April 10. The Sony Xperia S is going to be first Sony-branded smartphone in the country, after it took over Ericsson's mobile business last year.
The Sony Xperia S was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show event earlier this year. The device sports 4.3-inch TFT touchscreen, Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS (promised to be upgraded to the latest Android 4, Ice Cream Sandwich), 1.5 GHz Qualcomm dual-core processor, 12.1 MP camera, It also comes with 1GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. For connectivity, the device supports NFC, Bluetooth, GPS and Wi-Fi.
Sony India hasn't revealed the official price of the Xperia S. However, online retailer LetsBuy suggests the device will be priced about Rs. 32,500, taking on the likes of Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC One X.
The Sony Xperia S has already been released in some markets including the U.K. The device recently came in the limelight after Sony conceded that some of the Xperia S devices were experiencing a display issue, where a yellow tint appears on the screen after the temperature of the phone gets too high.
Owning up the glitch, Sony said in a statement that "the display on a limited number of Xperia S smart phones may show a slight yellow tint if exposed to temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius." Sony, however, stressed that a very few devices are affected and promised to replace the affected ones free of cost. Read our previous coverage here.
