Prachi's Review (A social butterfly)
For me the 4.3 inches display is the first thing I noticed in the Sony Xperia SL. I love texting and all my friends too prefer texting over talking, so I find the screen size of the Sony Xperia SL very cramped. Yes, 12.1 MP is not that great camera resolution. There are so many smartphones with better megapixels sometimes even cheaper than this phone. I love clicking pictures with my smartphone and this one doesn't seem up for it. I can't imagine my smartphone without the secondary camera. I and my friends simply love the selfies and groupies and click hundreds of them. It's too much effort to do it with the main camera, so having a cool front camera is much better; it is more fun to have front camera with higher megapixels. My smartphone should do a lot of things simultaneously and not just basic messaging, emails and browsing. And the 2G network is too slow to do anything more than that. I can now travel to almost any new place or location with the built-in GPS and it is great help during various emergencies, traffic updates or navigation issues. I always forget charging my phone so USB charging via my laptop is really a good option for me and sometimes I even use this port to transfer music and images. I love the Sony Xperia SL where I hardly delete photos and videos due to storage issues. Plus I even carry around my entire music library. My smartphone is my world and it easily carries around my numerous group pics, videos with friends, my favourite YouTube videos, music, books, social networking apps and much more.
