As for ease of use, the smartphone has no obvious shortcomings in this regard. The build quality is excellent, which can be said about any Sony devices. New Xperia SP has absolutely no play or creaks. And the size is quite appropriate; nevertheless, a screen larger than 5 inches diagonally is difficult to use with one hand, and a 4.6-inch screen is still quite convenient to operate, at least if you have a large male palm.
Screen, built-in camera
Almost all of Sony's competitors have abandoned the use of TFT technology in more or less decent models in favor of IPS, PLS, S-LCD and AMOLED. Sony has taken a different path and equips all its smartphones with screens made using TFT technology, but often with proprietary “improvements”. So it is with the Xperia SP, which is equipped with a 4.6-inch TFT matrix, 1280x720 HD resolution and Sony Mobile BRAVIA Engine 2.
This approach showed all its weak points, which have already become traditional for Sony smartphones. If the picture quality and color gamut do not cause any complaints, then the viewing angles could be wider. Otherwise, the screen is quite good - given its size, the image density is 319 ppi. The ten-point capacitive sensor is very responsive, and the smartphone is controlled with a bang.
The front camera is only suitable for video communication - the sensor resolution is only 0.3 megapixels. But we can talk in more detail about the rear camera. It is equipped with a proprietary BSI CMOS Exmor RS sensor with a resolution of 8 megapixels. The camera traditionally has several proprietary shooting modes, including HDR mode. But the most popular mode will be the Superior Auto mode, which automatically detects the scene (portrait, landscape, macro, night photography) and allows you to select the optimal shooting settings.

Problem solved
Advantages: 1. Design! He's really good. I have long dreamed of ringing metal in Sony and finally, the dream has come true!))) I took this one and not the Xperia Z because of the metal in the case. 2. Great display. It may not be Full-HD, but in terms of quality it is not at all inferior to the same Xperia Z, with its vaunted characteristics. Marketing is doing its job. Why do you need to cram a Full-HD screen into a phone with 5 inch screen? It makes no sense and you won’t notice the difference. Pixel density is at the level of iPhone 5 - 319 ppi. It is colorful and juicy and, unlike the poisonous flowers of amoled, it gives a real color scheme and behaves perfectly in bright sun. I compared it with the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, so the Japanese behaves 2 or even 3 times better in the sun. The fact that they write that the screen here sucks is complete nonsense of fans of competitors!))) Such people want to laugh in the eyes.))) Viewing angles are at a very decent level, like on any other phone they fade a little, but why look at screen at almost zero angle???? I really liked the display response. It's on par with the iPhone 5 and Nokia 920 Lumia that I had. 3. Excellent camera, especially without super mode. Produces 8 megapixels. I think with new firmware, some shortcomings with stabilization will be eliminated, but everything is OK. 4. It catches the net well. There really can be no complaints here, because... in the elevator it gives out 3-4 bars, unlike Samsung and iPhone, where the network disappears. The interlocutor can be heard perfectly, without any distortion or interruption. 4G is very good and stable! The speed is crazy! 38 Mbps! They say that it can accelerate to 100 Mbps. 5. Excellent technical content. The camera, external and voice speaker, powerful S4 processor, powerful Adreno 320 video accelerator may be slightly inferior to the Z in terms of its characteristics, but in practice, according to all kinds of tests, it is not only not inferior, but even superior to it. The battery here is a bomb.))) It really lasts for 2 days of active use. Disadvantages: There are practically none. Yes, there are small gaps, but this is a design feature, because... nothing creaks. On the black model it is practically not noticeable at all. If you compare it with the Korean Samsung C3 or Note 2, you won’t notice the difference, but if you compare it with the monolithic Iphone 5, you will feel the difference.))) Comment: Comments are unnecessary. The device is really good. The most important disadvantage that “competitors” are trying to inflate about the weak viewing angles of the screen and insufficient contrast turned out to be unconvincing for me, because I really like natural colors rather than the super-duper amoled that hurts my eyes and fades in the sun. DO NOT listen to anyone about this. I advise you to just go to the store and see for yourself the veracity of my words. I think there is no point in getting a powerful top-end quad-core phone when you can get great smartphone for relatively little money but with excellent technical characteristics, which in practice will not be inferior to competitors in almost anything, both in speed and quality of materials.
