Sony Xperia J may have rather humble technical specifications compared to Sony Mobile's 2012 flagship releases but it definitely has its own charms. For one, it flaunts a sleek curved design reminiscent of the best-selling Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc that I'm sure many users will find attractive. Also, just like its more expensive siblings, Xperia J features the latest version of Sony's smooth Timescape experience serving as skin for Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwhich and also has Sony Mobile Bravia engine for enhanced photo and video viewing experience.
