Xperia Neo L is the first smartphone from Xperia family running the Android operating system 4.0 aka Ice Cream Sandwich. The Neo L designs similar to the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play. Neo L whole body covered with glossy plastic material. Unfortunately, this material makes the surface of the Neo L feels slippery when your hand.
On the left side is available port MicroUSB. There are 4 physical buttons below the screen, covering the back button, home, menu and search. Other physical buttons on the right side, namely the power button and volume control. These buttons are small and thin, uncomfortable when pressed. The reflected power is also less stable.
Xperia Neo L looks cool when viewed from the front. Each curve create an impression of elegance. However, if viewed from the rear, there is something odd at the top. This anomaly is caused by a 3.5 audio jack port which protrudes through outward.
Rear panel on Neo L can be opened. SIM card slot is blocked by the battery, and MicroSD card slot is under the SIM card. You must first remove the battery if it wanted to open a pair of SIM card and MicroSD memory.
Xperia Neo L equipped Qualcomm MSM8255 processor Snapdragon 1GHz speed, RAM 512, and have been using the Android operating system 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). Andreno graphics processor unit 205 simply lifts the graphics performance of this smartphone.
To play such games Angry Birds or Fruit Ninja Space, Neo L can run smoothly. For the size of the Android smartphone for USD 2.5 million, as a whole Xperia Neo L is quite satisfactory.
Xperia Neo L wide-screen 4-inch and 480 x 854 pixel resolution, the response to touch with 4 fingers simultaneously. Audio generated from the Neo L somewhat mediocre. Character of the audio treble, so the bass element was not felt.
His speakers are behind, just to the left of the camera. When music is played, then you put the Neo L in the table in the position on the screen, then the music that comes out is very small because there is no room for the speaker to make a sound.
Not Sony’s name if it does not equip smartphones with camera quality. 5MP camera with LED Flash. Camera features include auto focus, white balance, night mode, exposure, and flash. Touch focus featured absent from the camera Neo L.
The Xperia Neo L have provided a default photo editing application When viewing photos in the gallery, simply press the physical button and select the edit menu. Here you can add effects and filters, adjust color, crop, flip, and so forth. The main camera capable of recording 720p video at 30fps. Secondary VGA resolution camera.
Xperia Neo L OfficeSuite has been accompanied by office applications. Live register email, you can open, edit and create documents.
Another is the default application Neo Reader to read 2D barcodes, McAfee Security, EA Games, and Wisepilot GPS applications. Unfortunately, the feature FM Radio Neo absent from L.
