Sony’s Xperia T is also known as the James Bond phone following its appearance in Skyfall. Yes, of course the world’s best secret agent needs a smartphone endorsement. In the world of the fiction in which Bond lives, he’s more likely to have a handset tha...

The Sony Xperia T has a very nice screen and delivers good quality video. I’m not that big a fan of the build (and nor, I suspect, would our fictional Mr Bond be), and while I like the Small Apps concept, overall Sony’s plentiful app extras make Android...

Sony, formerly known as Sony Ericsson, were already the parent company to Ericsson anyway so last year they decided to buy that company out and simply call the company Sony, but with this change also came a shift in the company's priorities when it ca...
The Xperia T may have been released a few months before we got our hands on one to review but when I got the chance to I simply couldn't resist because since its release I've wanted to play with it, and not only because it is the coveted 'Bond phone' b...

The first thing that struck me about the Xperia T is its unique shape. The slight curve in its design is imperceptible when viewing the phone face on but distinctive when you catch a side-on glance. Combined with the matte black finish (something that alw...
I love the simplicity of this phone. The specs are high-end but the phone is unfussy and Sony seems to have taken a no-nonsense approach – rather like Bond himself. For a high-end phone, I think it's one that a novice user could easily manage.However, the...

The Sony Xperia T is one of the very best smartphones out there for multimedia. Its HD screen is huge and absolutely gorgeous, with wide viewing angles and bright colours: it also takes up most of the entire front face of the phone as Sony’s sensibly worked the Android navigation buttons into the display, as Samsung did with the hit Galaxy Nexus phone.Its 13 megapixel camera is no slouch either...
While the Sony Xperia T sports one of the absolute finest displays you can find anywhere on the planet right now, it’s let down by a rather uninspiring casing otherwise: the 9.4mm profile is rather chunky (particularly disappointing when the battery doesn’t last quite as long as rivals) and the matte finish picks up fingerprints like a crime scene investigator. And like the Xperia S before it, le...
Sony’s always left us with the impression that it’s playing catch up with its rivals in mobile, and while the Sony Xperia T is a perfectly decent device, it’s lacking the little flourishes and bleeding edge bits and bobs that really make it stand out...

The glossy front makes the Xperia T's display look even bigger than 4.6in when it's powered off, making it look expensive and, well, grown up compared to the Samsung Galaxy S3 . It's actually a similar size to the S3, but the far squarer edges make it loo...
