Sony Xperia T2 Ultra and Xperia E1 get Announced

Sony just recently announced the Xperia Z1S, which is up for order through T-Mobile right now, and the Xperia Z1 Compact. Apparently they werent done and have since announced two more device offerings, the Xperia T2 Ultra and Xperia E1.

The Sony Xperia T2 Ultra is the larger size phablet style style device that pulls off a sleek 6-inch 720p TRILUMINOS display. It offers a 1.1MP front facer and a 13MP rear shooter. Inside you will a quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor clocked at 1.4GHz with just 1GB of RAM. It will support an SD card slot which will be needed with the small 8GB of on board storage. It does pack in a 3000 mAh battery to keep you going long term and will be offered in a dual-sim single SIM offering. However, unlike many of its sought after higher-end counterparts, the Xperia T2 Ultra doesn’t appear to have an IP rating for water resistance.

Moving along to the smaller size Sony brings out the Xperia E1. This little guys has a traditional 4-inch 800×480 display. It packs in a 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon 200 processor with 512MB of RAM and a smaller 1700 mAh battery. Storage is limited to 4GBs but does offer up a micro SD card slot.  The Xperia E1 is easily aimed at the music centric users who don’t need massive screens and a ton of processing power. Its big selling point is the 100Db rear speaker and intuitive Walkman controls. Again, this is another single or dual-sim phone too.

Both devices come out rocking Android 4.3 and easily fit into the more mid-range category of devices. Pricing and availability are still under wraps for now but are clearly aimed at overseas markets like China and the Middle East. If Sony can find the sweet spot for the pricing on these they should have no issues selling a ton of both.
