Sony Xperia L2

Sony Xperia L2 features are good model parameters. Pleasantly pleased with the capacity of the battery, especially given the dislike of "Sony" to large batteries. In addition, the camera figures look good, but this is not always a guarantee of good shooting. In more detail about the camera it will be told in the corresponding section.

Important! In the delivery set, in addition to the phone, you can find a split charger. The case and glass will have to be purchased separately, the case should be taken care of immediately, since the device is plastic, which means it is very easy to scratch it.

Appearance

Sony Xperia L2 dual is one of the company's latest phones, made in the classic square case. The model looks monolithic and strictly, for those who do not like elaborate products, this device is an excellent option. Despite this, the brand did not forget about the girls and the young audience as a whole, therefore, in addition to the standard black colors you can find a model in pink or gold. Traditionally, the entire device is made in a single color, and the theme matches the appearance.

The back of the phone is completely plastic. Today, everyone uses glass or metal, and plastic is considered a relic of the past or a lot of cheap devices. Sony Iksperiya L2 not only does not look cheap, but is not felt as such in the hands. However, the plastic is very pleasant to the touch, matte surface fingerprinted and non-slip in hand. On the back of the case there is a round fingerprint scanner, NFC chip, camera, flash.

On a note! According to reviews, the scanner is very fast, and there are no problems with its use. Often, budget telephones do not work properly for scanners, but this is not the case.

On the front panel the bottom part is empty. Top speaker, camera, sensors. The frames on the sides are rather thin, but of course they are far from the size of the XA2 line. On the right side is the volume control (inseparable) and the power button. The latter is elongated and oval, here the brand has abandoned the branded round key. On the left side of the cap, which is hooked to the fingernail and easily removed. The slot is designed for either two sim or sim and memory card. The upper end received a mini-jack for headphones and a microphone. At the bottom of the speaker grid, microphone, Type-C.

Generally, the model turned out quite heavy and thick, but the discomfort of use does not occur. The device fits in a hand very comfortable, ergonomics at a high level. For cheap devices this is not very typical.

Screen

The smartphone Sony Xperia L2 has a diagonal of 5.5 inches with a small HD resolution, the matrix device created by IPS technology. In recent years, the company with the screens all right. Here the situation has not changed. This is not the best option on the market, but the viewing angles and brightness are at a good level. During the day, the screen fades a little in the sun, but to see what is written there is quite real. There is an automatic brightness control, high quality oleophobic and anti-reflective coating.

For its price, the screen is nice. The model came out during a general transition to the ratio of 19: 8, but the device in question made according to the classical standard 16: 9. There will always be people who will criticize any innovations, and such Sony Xperia L2 (h4311) will definitely please. This is a sure representative of the old school. The touch is designed for 10 touches. There is a protective glass, but its manufacturer and series are not called.

Autonomy

Sony for some reason does not like capacious batteries in phones.In this case, the manufacturer has surpassed itself and put a large (by the standards of the company) 3300 mAh battery. It allows you to watch videos in HD resolution for about eight hours, confidently withstands the day of average loads. Discharge in synchronization mode via Wi-Fi - 5%. This is a fairly low figure, especially for devices from an inexpensive segment. In the device no fast charge function, but still the capacity is typed at 100% in 2 hours. This is quite good.

Performance

The smartphone Sony Xperia L2 dual is equipped with a quad-core processor from the company MediaTek. This is a budget chipset that does not show supernatural results and is more disliked than users like. However, at Sony, it shows a pleasant speed of operation, which once again proves the importance of optimization and fast memory. The device will not pull cool games, but for everyday tasks such as mail, social networks, surfing and other actions it is enough. No hangs, lags and other unpleasant things are not observed, which will greatly please the owners. According to the tests, the phone knocks out about 45 thousand points, which is also quite good inside its segment.

The device memory is 3 and 32 gigabytes of RAM and ROM, respectively.In the first case, the system takes about 1.3 gigabytes, the rest is enough for comfortable work.

The fact that Sony does not save on interfaces, they say a lot. In this case, the situation is quite typical for the company: two SIM cards, dual-band Wi-Fi, NFC support, and even Type-C set. Everything works quickly enough, the navigation systems quickly find the satellites and confidently guide the user along the route. There are no problems with connecting to networks either, the radio module confidently and quickly finds the towers.

Camera

Camera phone Sony Xperia l2 is quite typical. The main module has a resolution of 13 megapixels, she shoots well during the day, both in automatic and manual mode. With artificial light and in the dark, the quality falls, and for an inexpensive device it is quite normal. You can not put a photosensitive matrix, which will collect the maximum light, and at the same time make the device cheap. Video shooting is available in maximum FHD quality. The rollers are medium.The sound is written well, there is noise reduction, but not too aggressive.

The camera selfie module is 8 megapixel wide angle matrix. There are no complaints about her. Very good pictures, an artificial “improver” of the face does not work too intrusively and if it eliminates defects, it does not make the face in an anime style (as is the case with Chinese devices). Record video on the front camera in HD. Quality at a decent level.

To control the camera is pretty standard. By default, the photo is selected, with a swipe or a special button on the screen, you can switch to video. The device itself selects the scene, but if you want there are manual modeswhere the white balance, exposure and other parameters are adjusted. For a device with a price of 13 thousand, the camera is excellent. It is hardly possible to find the best, but worse is even very easy.

Conclusion

Sony Xperia L2 is a decent device from inexpensive ones. If, when buying, you correctly understand your tasks - that is, without games, a device for the Internet, calls, correspondence, reading, a good camera, then this description is exactly L2. Plus, a nice design and screen, sufficient autonomy to work.The model does not have serious disadvantages, so you can safely buy the device, especially if you find it at a sale with a price reduced by a couple of thousand.
